HONEST ADVICE TO
CONSERVATIVES

Somehow there exists a vast amount
of scepticism as to the possibility of
curing Consumption We state none
but facts, and are sincere in what we
assert The reason we advice all Con-
sumptives to take Eckman's Altera-
tive promptly and faithfully is because
we have the reports of many recover

Color AnaIvaia.

It Is rather interesting to know how
a color can be broken up into its con.
stituent parts. Take, for instance
mauve or nile green. How can any one
tell just what different colored lights
compose such color? 1t is all done
with the prism. that wonderful little
three sided piece Of glass used in spec.
troscopes and other instruments. 1t is
done on the same principle as the
analysis of sunlight is accomplished by
little particles Of water in showing the
rainbow. There are only seven pri-
mary lights. If sunlight containing all
colors falls on a red object all the col
ors but red are absorbed. the red being
reelected to our eyes, so we say the OBJ.
ject Is red. The prism will not split
up red into any other colors. for it is q
primary color. So is blue. But If pur.
pie be tried we get two colors apart,
blue and red. We do not find purple
In the spectrum. so any color not found
in the spectrum Of sunlight is known
to be a compound one. 1t can always
be analysed by the prism.-St Louis

rhr.. Million Wire. to an Inch


Gold has been hammered out to thir
sheets whose thinness is beyond imagi
nation. so thin pile one inch high
would doubtless contain 100000 If al
were as thin as the thinnest one. But
a platinum wire has been drawn to
diarneter so minute that 100000 side
by side would occupy one inch. The
method was to surround platinum with
silver and draw the mass into finer
and finer wire. Then the silver coating
was dissolved Off with nitric acid, leav'
ing the excessively thin. insoluble
thread of platinum. Particles of gold
have been seen in the new ultra violet
light. dark ground rejecting micro
scopes so small that row containing
$4,000 would be one inch long And
there are animals as small.-New York

TERMINAL ACTION
AGAINST TRUSTS
Us the Only Method to Con-
troll Big Business, Says
Congressman Gray.
BY stan Correspondent.

CONNERSVILLE, Ind, May 30
Congressman Finly Gray, who spent
yesterday in this city attended to some
private business affairs, talked for a
short time with Palladium cores
pondent
"The work of the house is nearly
over" said Mr.. Gray. I'VE haven't
much left to do unless the Panama
bin 10 amended and sent back to u.s."
Incidentally the tall statesman from
quiet little Connersville gave some
clear and concise expressions in re-
gard to trust busting as it is now
conducted
"You must have competition to have
reasonably low prices" stated Mr..
Gray, Either low prices must be Sc.
cured in this manner or by govern
ment ownership, the ideal of the So.
cialists. Now we have to adopt one of
these methods. There is no middle
way This country is drifting toward
socialism for the reason that there
Deems to be no hope of getting low
prices for products under the present
trust system.
What we want is enforcement of
the criminal clause of the Sherman
antitrust law. That will fix them.
Take the recent ruling of the supreme
court in the oil trust case. The term
reasonable was injected. If you put
that in the law 1t regulates the thiev-
Ing Of millions. Why not have a law
governing chicken and coal stealing?
You now send culprits to the peniten-
tiary for stealing a chicken or bucket
of coal. Don't send them unless they
steal an unreasonable" amount, say
more than they can use themselves.
There has never been a malefactor of
prominence sent to Jail in all the trust
dissolution suits to date, and you
won't very soon But when jail senten-
ces are added to fines, and the men are
actually compelled to spend a little
time in cells then you will have more
respect for the law"
Mr. Gray arrived in the city Satur-
day and returned to Washington to-
day.

Followed Suit.

This curious incident comes from
Suhr. Switzerland: An inspector of
schools, without any previous warning,
visited the village school and found
the elderly teacher asleep at his desk
and the children departed. having ap-
parently taken French leave. TO give
the teacher great surprise and bad
quarter Of an hour the inspector de-
cided to wait until he awoke and seat
ed himself on a bench in front of the
culprit. The hours passed, and the in
spector> himself went to sleep. The
teacher. on awakening and seeing who
was sleeping before him. quietly left
the school for home. Without entering
the schoolroom the concierge locked
up the school and the slumbering In
spector. Several hours later the con-
cierge heard great noise and. arming
himself. opened the door and was great
~ surprised to find the angry inspector

WOMEN WORKERS IN
U. S. POORLY PAID
Physicians Told that Race Is
Endangered by Treat
ment of Women.
National News Association

ATLANTIC CITY, May 31.-Three
important papers on medical socio-
logy were read at the opening of the
thirty seventh annual meeting of the
American Academy of Medicine here
today. These papers related to women
wage earners and modern conditions,
the different civilization levels in mod
ern society and a medical study of de-
linquent girls.
In each of the subjects those deliver
ing the addresses devoted their atten-
ton particularly to the sociological
side Of the medical problem presented.
The reading of the papers was follow
ed by discussion of the mater pre-
scented.
In speaking on women wage earners,
DR.. James H. Mcbride, of Pasadena,
Cal, said in part:
THE work of woman is as import
ant to society as that of man.
"In the earliest stage of society
woman did the camp work, the manu-
featuring and the home keeping. She
continued in this position in civilized
society until manufacturing passed out
of the home to the factory. In enter
ing as a wage Garner in manufacture
les woman has simply followed to the
factory as an employe what she for
merly did in her own home
Sounds Warning.
''In the United States women and
girls were employed in manufactures
from the time these were first estab-
lished and investigations show that
they were then as now, poorly paid
and poorly housed.
investigations into the condition
under which women are employed in
wage earning occupations at the pres
ent time. show that their work is usu-
ally done under unhygienic conditions.
The seven million of women employed
in gainful occupations in the United
States need legal protection to the ex-
tent that the State should see that
their health is not impaired by the con-
ditions of their employment.

cal degeneracy of woman as a poten-
tial mother under present industrial

hours, living wage, occupational
training for women, endowment of
motherhood"
Macmillan P. F. Groszmann, Phi. D.,
of Plainfield, N. j., then took up the
subject of society's different civiliza-
ton levels. DR.. Groszmann shows that
many groups of individuals really rep
resent a reversion to the early period
of civilization and are brought to the
surface by various upheavals in our
social fabric; likewise entire races and
people must be considered backward
as compared with modern civilization.
Developing culture and civilization
is brought about by a process of men
tai and social maturing. Rapid advance
during the last year has made it diff
cult for the backward types to become
assimilated. 1t must be attempted for
the process of "Americanizing" immi-
grants is frequently but superficial.
The speaker did not attempt to offer
ready made solutions of the problems
thus presented, but had to be satisfied
with pointing out the enormous per.
spective which all these great ques.
lions open up. Solutions can be found
only through the cooperation of all
thinking people.

Constant Cough Weakened Him.
A healthy child ought to be hun

The best thing you can do for a

children take it eagerly.

At the Murray.

The Murray management is offering
bill this week that is far above the
shows here for month. The acts
TEEN with interesting variety from
start to finish and the audience is
showing their appreciation by a liber-
al applause.
The opening number of the Umholts
Bros, has them doing the Italian
street musician act in which one plays
violin and the other a small harp.
The blending of the music and the
sweet melody that they play wins for
them a big hand. The second scene
has the two brothers in straight mu-
steal act in which they combine the
violin with the harp, a saxophone So
10 and a cornet duet.
DeFur and Estes, who come next
on the bill are a couple of excellent
singers while their dancing is one of
the best features of the act. Miss Els
ties is a good looking young lady and
in her several kid" numbers works to
the best advantage.
Adams, Hartleigh and Remy and
the Baeder-Lavelle Troupe of cyclists
concludes the performance.
Beginning next week the Lewis and
Oliver Players will appear here for
