MRS. GODFREY
WE'LL AGAIN

Vinelahd, N. J.,-Mrs. Allen T. God
frey who has been in bad health for
some time, has just written the fol-
lowing letter telling of her recovery:
Everyone who is in broken health
ought to know that Vinol will build
them up and make them strong 1t re-
stored my strength and vigor after /
had been in a badly rundown condi-
ton for several months. and | never
fail to give Vinol good word now"
This is one more proof that our de-
licious cod liver and iron remedy,
yinol, which is free from cod liver oil,
is a remarkably strengthening and vi
talizing medicine.
Men and women who are weak and
in poor health, unable to sleep or
eat well, and who have given up hope
of ever being strong again should
certainly take Vinol, without waiting
another day, for it is exactly what
they need.
There is no risk at all, for it is SO
sure to do good that we guarantee it
absolutely and will refund the money
if you are not satisfied McGrath

Banks Guarded by Soldiers.


Like the Bank of England, the Bank
of France is now guarded every night
by soldiers, who do sentry duty out
side the building. watch being like
wise kept inside it's precincts. But
within quito recent time the officials
at the French bank resorted to very
novel method of protecting their bull.
lion This consisted in engaging ma
sons to wall up the doors of the vaults
in the cellar with hydraulic mortar as
soon as the money was deposited each
day in these receptacles. The water
was then turned on and kept running
until the whole cellar was flooded. A
burglar would be obliged to work in a
diving suit and break down cement
wall before he could even begin to
plumber the vaults. When the bank
officials arrived next morning the wa.
ter was drawn off. the masonry torn
down and the vaults opened. Curl.
ously enough. within a few months
after this obsolete maner of protecting
the banks cash was done away with.
burglars did actually get into the
vaults and decamp with about $4,000
in gold coin.-Strand Magazine.

"A cure of unusual interest and i'm

Some years ago | was in terribly

Unless properly treated sick headache
is disease OF many years duration, as it
occurs before the twentieth year in two
thirds of the cases and recurs with
more or less regularity until the fiftieth
year or later. 1t is usually hereditary
and is probably directly caused by de-
feet in the process which changes the
food we eatinto blood. Most sufferers are
troubled with obstinate CONSTIPATION

1t is agreed that our system lacks
unity and cohesion and reserve pow
ers. There is general confidence that
our banks are solvent, but no conf
dence in crisis that they will be able
to maintain cash payments or grant
reeded accommodations. The banks
feel their own helplessness, and
their struggle to keep UP their cash
reserves and reduce their loans do
even more to demoralize the situation
than the actions of the public.
What is wanted is some respons-
!ible organization, with reserve re-
sources which command complete
confidence, that will stand back of the
/ individual banks and support them
when help is needed by taking over
some of their assets and advancing
cash thereon. Experience elsewhere
has demonstrated that the demands
upon such an Institution can be eff
/ fectually controlled by raising the
! discount rate. That is the general
| principle to which the rest of the
world has come, and it is now com
monty accepted in this country The
only disagreements seem to be over
the details of this organization.
Il see no reason to fear that such
an organization will be controlled in
the interest of locality or clique
The controlling board will be chosen
from all sections of the country, with
proper checks and safeguards, but the

MILK famine
FOR PARIS BABIES.
Even Though Birth Rate is Low,

Because Of Small

PRICE HAS STARTED UP
[By William Philip Sims. Paris cor.
respondent of the United Press.l

PARIS, Nov. 3.-France is confront
ed at the beginning of winter with
one of the gravest problems in her
domestic history. A milk famine,
daily growing acute, threatens her
newborn babies.
And the birth rate is scarcely hold
ing its own as 1t is. Paris is suf-
fering, and will continue to suffer,
less than other city in France, or any
other community, as result of the
scarcity of milk. The ordinary daily
supply here is approximately 100000
gallons. Since July 80, this amount
has fallen 20 per cent, the daily short
age now being little over $4,000 gal
Ions.
But this does not represent the real
shortage in Paris supply from it's
regular dairies. In these dairies the
shortage is nearly 40 per cent. The
deficiency is partly made UP by deal
ers buying milk from provinces 200
miles away. and more. Milk trains
now arrive from Brittany, the far sides
Of Norway, Touraine, Aniou, the
Ardennes and the Mivernais. And
in this way the shortage for Paris Is
cut from over a third to about
fifth.
At the various milk depots here,
dealers are finding it more and more
difficult to supply their regular clients
in the morning, while the demand
from transients during the day is
simply met with the French shrug
and reply "Scld out"
ut the special derots, where milk
for babies is sold, the situation is
the same. Clients who buy their own
bottles ond leave them at the depots
at night, still have them filled and
1 they can be had the next morning
Those who do not take this precau

depots this method has become i'm

bies are fed upon milk from the

established by Henri Rotschild, Of

family, as philanthropic work.
The price of milk was raised Oct
from 80 centimes (six cents) t.

On STOCK SPECULATION
Does Not Agree With James J. Hi
That Stock Exchange Collateral
Is Good Sc
curity.

WASHINGTON D. G., Nov. 81
George E. Roberts, director Of the
mint, says that the country's banking
system must be reformed in the inter
lest of general business and not in the
Interest Of speculation. He disagrees
with James J. Hill that the National
kReserve Association, the proposed
plan OF reform, should accept Stock
Exchange collateral as security for
loans, and says the association should
3only loan on commercial paper arising
tout of day-to-day trade transactions.
Il think the organizations of the
National Citizens League is one of the
most promising signs OF the time
looking to banking and currency re-
FORM says Mr.. Roberts.
This movement got its first i'm.
petus from the panic of 1907. Every
body knew while that panic was on
that something was wrong with our
banking system. There are two things
that are fundamental in banking: the
banks should be always ready to meet
their cash obligations on demand and
they should be always ready to loan
for the legitimate, current needs of
their customers at some reasonable
rate. In view of our experience in
the past those two conditions may
seem to make very large contract,
but in every other important country
Of the world those conditions are
met. There is plenty of proof that a
properly organized banking system
can meet them.
There is an end to bank runs
whenever 1t is known that the individ-
ual banks will be adequately support
led, and the amount of credit required
to handle the current exchanges can
always be supplied. OF course, no
vbanting system can undertake to fur
1nish all the credit that may be wanted
for speculation or extravagant con
struction, but it can and should fur
nish all that is needed to move the
crops and make the current exchanges
of trade.
Our system broke down in 1907
when great railway systems could not
'Iget money for their pay rolls; the
movement Of such staples as cotton
land wheat came to standstill and
)hunareds of thousands of wage-earn
iers were thrown out of employment.
Every consideration demands tha
