The big coal strike is practically
ended, only the details of the set
tlement remaining to be worked
out. This was the outcome of q
conference Of all the operators
with interests in the strike region
which was held at the headquarters
OF the Reading coal and Iron COM
pany yesterday. The coal carrying
roads agreed to reduce freight
charges and the operators then
agreed to all the demands Of the
strikers convention. A 10 per
cent. advance in. wages for six
months, the abolition of the slid
ing scale and the arbitration of all
other grievances is the substance
OF the strikers demands, and these
demands will all be granted. This
has been the greatest and most or.
derly strike of modern time and
its success should teach lesson to
organized labor everywhere. The
most powerful weapon of capital
i'm labor disturbances heretofore
has been the military, but in this
case the military has been power
less, because there was no disor-
der. The strikers have won their
just demands through good con-
dnct.

and a better one which is liter

expect, when it goes out, that it
will leave you free from that
tired feeling and with none of
the boils, pirnples and eruptions
which manifest themselves be-
cause OF impure blood in the
