Pennsylvania, which supplies the soft
coal to the metropolitan district, were
notified yesterday that the Clearheld
miners will hold convention TO have

Representatives OF the operators will
be. present. c. j. wittenberg. presi-
dent OF the Chesapeake & Ohio Coal
Co.. which has collieries In the Clear
field district and will be represented
at the convention, said that the mine
owners viii insist on a reduction In
wages, strike or no strike.
This reduction Is necessary with
the present demand and the prices
we are receiving" be said, land II the
miners strike IL cannot be helped.
While the general impression seems
TO be that the worst OF the business
depression is over. II will be many
month"; before tangible change is
seen, and the operators must reduce
wages for the present or close down
the coilieries. IL Is possible that the
miners, however. may accept the re
duction without a strike. as their lead

Nature has provided the stomach
with certain natural fluids known as the
digestive juices, and it is through these
juices that the food we eat is acted up
on in such way as to produce the rich,
red blood that flows through the veins
of our body and thereby makes us strong
healthy and robust and it is the weaken
ing of these digestive juices that des-
troys health. 1t is our own fault if we
destroy our own health, and yet it is so
easy for any one to put the stomach out
of order. When you need to take some
thing take it promptly, but lake some
thing you know is reliable-something
like kodol for Dyspepsia and Indiges-
ton. Kodol is pleasant to take, it is
reliable and Is guaranteed to give relief.
