TO UPHOLD LIABILITY ACT
UNITED STATES TO INTERVENE

Government Plans to Aid in support
ing constitutionality, Validity aad

Washington. Attorney General
Moody Friday made a statement
announcing. with the presidents
approval. that when the first case IN
der the employers liability act is
tried he intends TO ask leave to inter
vene 10 the case to support the con
stitutionality, validity and interpreta-
ton of the law. The statement fol-
lows:
1t has come to my knowledge that
II will be claimed in court that the
employers liability act. passed by the
congress last winter. by which a rem
edy is afforded to all employees Of the
interstate railroads for death or in
jury incurred in their service through
the negligence OF interstate railroads
or any Of It's employees. is beyond the
constitutional powers OF congress and
therefore void.
1T is my intention to ask leave Of
the court. in which the first case I'M
der this law is tried, to intervene. not
upon the questions Of fact. but for
the purpose of supporting the consti-
tutionality. validity and Interpretation
Of the law.
This intervention finds precedent

II is understood that when the at
torney general decided to intervene in
these cases he was in possession OF
information that many of the rail-
roads had decided TO enter upon a
systematic effort TO break down the
law. This conclusion is said to have
been reached at a meeting OF railroad
attorneys held in Louisville, KY. a
month ago. IL is expected that a test
suit will be brought soon In Ken

HINTS TO NERVOUS WOMEN
DR.. Graeme Hammond in Harper 4
Bazaar.

Bazaar.
There are many things a neurasthenic
woman can do which will mitigate the
severity Of her symptoms, and perhaps,
If the disease is slight, she may recover
without the intervention Of her physi-
clan. In the first place, the original
trouble, worry or anxiety which was
responsible for her nervous breakdown
must be done away with, orr if this is
impossible, she must school herself not
to, care, or else remove herself to new
scenes and surroundings where her mind
will not be harassed. Peace Of mind
will do more to restore shattered nerves
than almost anything else. The next
thing Is to make the bodily health as
good as it can be made under the exist
ing circumstances and surroundings.
Sleep and rest are absolutely essential
to recovery, and the sufferer should do
all she can to secure both. Narcotics,
to produce sleep, are not to be thought
Of. They dc not cure anything, and
their continual use can only be pro-
ductive Of harm. Tranquilize the mind,
Danish by force Of will unpleasant
thoughts, and sleep alone rather than
with someone else whose restlessness or
deep breathing, to say nothing Of snor-
ing, might well Danish sleep from the
eyes Of even Morpheus himself Some
times warm footbath before bed, or
eating slice Of bread and butter, or
drinking glass Of milk will bring sleep
to the tired eyes. If, however, these
means are inadequate it Is better to
consult a physician Normal sleep, and
plenty Of it, must be secured before re-
covsry becomes possible.
