GRIPS UGLY SEQUEL
KNEES STIFF, HANDS HELPLESS,
RHEUMATISM NEAR LEART.
Mrs. Van Scoy Experiences n ngerouA
After Effects from Grip and Learns
ynlue of n Blood Remedy,

The grip leaves behind it weakened
vital powers, thin blood, impaired di-
gestion and over-sensitive nerves-a
condition that makes the system an easy
prey TO pneumonia, bronchitis, rheuma-
tism, nervous prostration, and even COLI
sumption.
The story told by scores of victims of
the grip is substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base of the skull; another was left tired,
faint and i'll every way wretched from
annmia or scantiness of blood; another
had horrible headaches, was nervous and
couldn't sleep; another was left with
weak lungs, difficulty in breathing and
acute neuralgia. In every case relief
was sought in vain until the great blood
builder and nerve-tonic, DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, was used. For quickness and
thoroughness of action nothing is known
that will approach it.
l.lrs Van Scoy makes a statement that
supports this claim. She says:

fore had fully recovered, rheumatism

months / was in badly rundown

Psalm o. The Old Soldier.

The blue Is fading into gray,
Just as when sunset comes
With bugie calls that die away
And softly throbbing drums;
The shadows reach across the sky
And hush the cares of day;
The bugle call and drum beat die
The blue fades into gray.
The gray is blending into blue
sunrise glad and fair.
When, in the richness of the dew.
The roses riot there,
The bitterness of yesterday
Is lost to me and you:
The blue is fading into gray
The gray blends into blue.
They're sleeping now the long. long sleep
The boys who wore the blue:
Above the gray the grasses creep
And both We're good and true:
And in the twilight of our life
The ending of the way
There comes forgetfulness of strife
The blue fades into gray.
Above each mound the lilly glows
And humble daisies nod;
The ruby glory OF the rose
Sheds lustcI ON the sod:
The tears-the tedrs-they are the dew
That greets the coming day
The gray is blending into blue
The blue fades into gray

DETROIT FIGHTS THE TRUSTS
Latest Innovations Are Plants to Sup
NV PAVING Materiala

Latest Innovations Are Plants to Sup
ply Paving Materials
Detroit is fighting the trusts in a
new way A municipal brick paving
plant and municipal asphalt plant
are being erected.
This method of defending the city
against private monopoly opens up
great possibilities. In brick making,
at least, the raw material is not mo-
nopolized, and it is interesting to spec
ulate how far the cities and states will
enter upon public ownership and oper-
alton as protection against private
monopoly.
In this connection it should be
borne in mind that Detroit is no
longer machine-ruled city and there
fore is in a distinct class For three
years the advisory referendum in city
affairs has been established, and the
advisory initiative has existed for
year or two.
Owing to this system OF guarded
representative SOfClniACA IAAS - uA4ASt
pal lighting plant of Detroit has been
a great success. Now municipal paw
ing plant is under way. These points
/ are summarized by Hon. Frederick F..
Ingram of Detroit, business man OF
high standing engaged in manufacture
| ing and wholesaling, who, In letter
dated May 20, says:
Detroit is well satisfied with her
experience in municipal ownership
and is progressively working for far
Ither advancement along those lines.
The advisory referendum is firmly es-
ltablished through common council
lrules Of procedure. The advisory mi
/ tiative is employed at nearly every
election, different questions OF public
policy being submitted then to the gen
eral vote. Our public officials are
/ Jealous for credit and vie with each
other in securing same for municipal
|ownership measures. All Of which Is
evidence of the fact that the elector-
ate is Overwhelmingly in favor Of
progress"

POWER TO DEFYLAW
ALWAYS FIND MEANS
NOT TO OBEY
Simon Sterne, Who Made Deep Study
of Private Ownership, Stated the
Case Accurately Nearly Thirty
Years Ago

Simon Sterne, one of the attorneys
OF the Hepburn committee. which in
festigated the railroads nearly thirty
years ago, made a deep study OF the
railroad problem. He was an exceed
ing able to advocate of governmental
regulation. In 1879 he delivered an
address before the national board Of
trade, from which we extract these
words:
This confronts us with a power as
great as, and indeed greater by far
than any which has been permitted to-
exist unchecked and uncontrolled by
proper legislation. Our secretary has
stated that there are now over $4,000
miles of railways, representing $4,500,-
100000 of capital, which, aggregated
under one head or a few heads and
practically under one management,
represents power SO formidable and
SO above and beyond the power of
legislators, either state or national, as
they are now organized, that it will
break through and defeat any law
which we may see fit to make, unless
the people in their turn accumulate
power to meet power"
These words were spoken twenty-six
years ago, and vet they may be used
by any advocate Of government regu-
lation today. The only change neces-
sary would be in the statictics which
Mr.. Sterne gave as representing the
power of the railroads. Instead Of
$4,000 miles of railways there are now
20S,00 miles. Insted of capitaliza-
tion of $4,000, 100000 there is now a
capitalization of over $13,000,0 100000.
Not only has the railroad power
thus expanded in the twenty-five years
since Mr.. Sterne spoke, but it has in
creased more rapidly than the country
itself. Since 1879 the population of the
United States has increased Sc per
cent, the wealth of the country has in
creased 145 per cent, the money cir
culation has increased 1863 per cent
and the bank clearings in New York
have increased so per cent. In the
same time the railroad capitalization
has increased 1870 per cent. This COM
parison is suggestive in two ways

that the railroads have enjoyed a

ttation which produced the Hepburn in
vestigation and the speech of Mr..
Sterne from which we have quoted re-
suited in establishing system of gov
ernmental supervision. Thus public
regulation has not prevented railroad
prosperity.
The comparison is suggestive in
the second place because it shows
that the power Of the railroads is
greater today in comparison with the
wealth of the country than it was
even when Mr.. Sterne spoke. II it
was necessary in 1879 that the people
should Gin their turn accumulate
power then surely the necessity ex-
lists today in even greater measure
than it did then. In other words, II
