CHR0NIC'ULCERS
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Where the blood is pure any wound
or laceration of the flesh heals "by
6rst intention. This is true because
nature,has provided constituent to
the circulation known as Plasma,
which joins and holds the place to-
gether until the fbres and tissues can
permanently knit and Intervene.
Whenever the ulcer becomes chronic
it is because this healing quality of
the blood has been impaired by some
impurity in the circulation, and the
place remains open, injecting all sur
rounding flesh, until the character OF
the circulation is changed. No sore
can heal where the blood is bad be-
cause the morbid impurities on which
it thrives are constantly deposited
into it by the burdened circulation.
Cleanse the blood and the sore will
heal, of its own accord, because then
its very source and foundation will
have been destroyed. S. S. S. cures

GOMPERS' INDICTMENT
OF STEEL CORPORATION
Accused Of Violating Antitrust
Law in Charges Filed With the
Department Of Justice.

THAT poor quality of foreign labor is
given preference over American labor;
that the corporation pays wages insult.
ficient to provide for the American stand
ard OF living; that it demands seven days
labor week from an individual. and that
1t suppresses free public speech
These and many other allegations alp
pear in the charges against the United
States Steel Corporation which have been
filed with the Department of Justice by
Samuel Gompers, president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. Mr.. 'Gompe rs
asserts that his charges are in no sense
a bluff. but that they are indicative that
he means business"
1t is said the wide range covered by
the allegations may make them the sub
ject of inquiry by more of the federal
departments than the Department of
Justice. 1t is also said that Attorney
General Wickersham will be most con-.
cerned with the allegation that the United
States Steel Corporation is an illegal COM
bination and operating in defiance of the
Sherman antitrust law. Except in one
or two instances, the charges filed by the
labor officials appear to be subjects for
investigation by bureaus of the Depart
ment OF Commerce and Labor
There are thirteen counts, wherein Mr..
Gompers and the other members of q
committee appointed at a. Pittsburg la
Dor conference. which dealt with the
that the big concern needs correcting.
It's alleged disobedience of the Sherman
antitrust law is placed at the head of
the list.
