make life perpetual, it is fact that
life can be prolonged Many people die
before their time because the organs
become clogged and cannot do their
work. To keep the body open, active
and free from impurities there must be
no constipation, dyspepsia, flatulency,
liver troubles, etc. If old or young

wonder If the women. who must spend

There should be at least two win

TO HOLD CLUB OVER RAILROADS

Minneapolis, May 9.-To lease, or tt
build and maintain line of steamers
on the great lakes to handle North
west commodities and dictate rate
from Buffalo to the Atlantic seaboard
is the plan considered at special
meeting of the policy committee OF
the Minneapolis Traffic Association.
I w. p. Trickett, executive manager
of the association, upon his return
from Chicago, announced that he had
learned that the sweeping increase in
merchandise rates planned by the rail-
roads will extend as far as the Missis-
sippi river.
The Chicago rate increase has been
expected for year by the association,
but the Minneapolis extension came as
a surprise Hurried consideration of
plans to combat the action has result
ed in proposition to use the lake and
rail service to the exclusion of the
all-rail. Members of the association
who attended the meeting believe that
1t will be matter of course if the
lake and rail rates are increased pro-
portionately. This would forestall the
lake and rail competition plan, but the
association stands ready to use its own
boats.
Say They Could Hold Power.
So much of the traffic on the lakes
comes from the Twin Cities that local
traffic men argue that line installed
by themselves would carry such vast
tonnage that it would result in the
Twin Cities controlling the lake high
way between Duluth and Buffalo. From
time to time boats have been leased
on the great lakes by local shippers
and, in a small way, have been found
TO be eminently successful as means
Of combating unjust discrimination by
the rail carriers.
1t was given out in Chicago by H.
C. Barlow, traffic director of the Chi
cago Association of Commerce, and
John M. Glenn, secretary of the ILL
uois Manufacturers Association, that
the rates to Chicago from the Atlantic
seaboard will take effect about July
Is. This is said to include everything
but commodity rates. If the plan to
put line of boats on the great lakes
we're carried out, not only class mer.
