MORE CARS IN PHILADELPHIA
Company Claims to Have Increased
Number I'm Operation I'm Spite
of Strikers.

PHILADELPHIA, June 2.-The fifth day
of the street railway motormen and con-
ductors' strike opened with conditions
quiet and practically unchanged. The com
pany operating the lines in a statement at
$50 a. m, claims that 612 cars are in oper-
alton, sc more than yesterday. In normal
times the company operates $500 cars.
The strikers are hopeful that a movement
on foot looking to arbitration Of the mat
tiers in dispute will produce results favor
able TO them.
BOSTON, Mass, June 2.-Of the 1900 car
penters in Boston and nearby towns who
struck yesterday for an increase In pay
and a Saturday half holiday all the year,
fewer than $50 remained out today, and it
was expected that all would be back at
work within a day or two. Most of the
contractors have signed agreements de-
manded by the men.
CLEVELAND, o., June 2.-President
Seth Low and most of the other members
Of the National Civic Federation left the

tempt to induce the lake vessel owners to
submit to arbitration the demands of the

CIRCUS DAY ALMOST HERE
Observation-Disclosures shows Will
He with Us Monday,
June a..

In spite of the annual and sometimes
more frequent occurrence of "circus day.
the majority of the people Of this city
are always ready to welcome the white
tents and red wagons. Now that the date
fixed for the appearance of the Hagen
beck-Wallace Combined Shows is almost
here, the interest is becoming acute and
thousands Of people are planning to visit
the show.
There are people who really object to
the coming of a circus, especially one of
the magnitude of the MISUNDERSTANDING
shows, because of the tendency of the
average citizen and countryman to make
it a holiday. Such people, however, are
born pessimists and undesirable citizens
and should be suppressed. They forget
that, while they may be able to attend
and enjoy the theater every week, most
of those who attend a circus are only
able to do so about once or twice a year.
The latter IS the amusement of all classes
of people, because it is a bargain counter
of amusements, Nowhere else can so much
be seen for the same price and nowhere
else can it be enjoyed with the same en-
thusiasm as in the circus throngs. This
city is not immune from the circus fever,
and especially is this true when the attrac-
ton has the magnetic drawing qualities
of the Hagenbeck-Wallace shows.
The people of almost every country I'M
der the sun know what to expect when the
name Of Carl Hagenbeck is mentioned,
and this is equally true of the Great Wal
lace Shows"

Nsighhor Says Something.

The front yard fence is a famous council

with some enc along the street. or for
friendly gossip with next door neighbor.
sometimes II is only small talk. but other
times neighbor has something really good
to offer.
An old resident Of Baird, Texas, got some
mighty good advice this way once.
He says:
Drinking coffee left me nearly dead
with dyspepsia, kidney disease and boU,eI
rouble, with constant pains in my stom-
ach, back and side, and so weak I could
scarcely walk.
"one day l was chatting with one NJ
my ~neighbors about my trouble and told
her believed coffee hurt me. Neigbor
said she knew lots Of people to whom cof-
Zee was poison and she pleaded with me
TO quit it and give Postum a trial. l did
not take her advice right away, but tried
a change OF climate, which did not do me
any good. Then dropped coffee and
took up Postum.
MY improvement began Immediately
and I got better every day | used Postum.
My bowels became regular and in two
weeks all my pains were gone. Now | am
well and strong and can eat anything
want TO without distress. All OF this is
due 20 my having quit coffee, and to the
use OF Postum regularly.
MY son who was troubled with indlges-
ton thought that il Postum helped me 50.
IL might help him. II did, too, and he Is
now well and strong again.
I'VE like Postum as we'll as we ever liked
the coffee and use it altogether in my
family in place of coffee and all keep well. "
