Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, child's bowels should be
constantly watched, and gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially well adapted to women
and children. The Sisters Of
Christian Charity, SCI Charles ST..
Luzcrne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much Their action
IL excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised. In using DR.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the price is returned. Ask your
druggist. A box of rs doses costs
only IS cents. Never sold in bulk.

Karin Michalis, the author OF
''The Dangerous Age" who is now
Mrs Strangeland, and live in Amer

iitken in which she gives her impress
sions of the modern American wo-
man.
The American man regards wo-
man as a kind of higher being and If
he refuses to admit her to the labor
thinks she is too good for work or
politics. Fidelity to the marriage
vows is general among American wo-
men.
'The woman has no cause to be
otherwise than faithful, being per-
fectly content with her lot, as her
husband does everything to please
her and treats her after Is years Of

WILEY SAYS ALL FADS GO IN
BOSTON.
Urges Homely Diet and Less Show
To Dodge High Cost of
........

Living.
DR.. Harvey W. Wiley, the expert
on pure food, told $50 Somersville
club women that anything in the
shape Of fad goes in Boston, pre-
vided it is sufficiently startling, hare
Drained and conspicuous. The for
mer chief Of the bureau of chemistry
at Washington roasted Boston fad
dists'' good and brown.
1.-THE more hare4brained the fad
is, ]" said DR.. Wiley 1.-THE more popu-
lar is the fad in Boston.
But DR.. Wiley praised Boston
baked beans as nutritious.
He had much to say abou. the
high cost of living and said it would
come down If the public would re-
turn to simplicity Of dress aud diet.
The talk in Unitarian hall spark
led with "Wileyisms. = Here are
some of them:
If a man invested Il nickel in
wheat properly prepared, he could
live two or three days.
The trouble is that nowadays we
make too much of a show, The eX-

isn't the man who benefits by the
high cost Of living. Let me tell you
that If the business man didn't get
larger profit on his goods than the
farmer does on his, he would throw
up his hands and worry continually
about bankruptcy.
If he were to return to simplicity
of diet and dress, the high cost OF
living would come down. And we
would all be much better off. Again,
if we knew what TO eat it would be

A RAILROAD OUTRAGE
When a frenzied striker resorts
to violence the entire country is
up in arms, but somehow or 9th
er the government doesn't work
itself into a frenzy when a big
railroad corporation resorts to
the most desperate kind of vio-
lence.
A story comes from Lyndall,
Utah, to the effect that the Union
Pacific railway cut off the water
supply to that town in order to
punish the striking shopmen.
1t appears that there isn't
enough water in the vicinity to
supply the town, and the Union
Pacific has been hauling it in.
There is a small river near by,
but the water is said to be unfit
for drinking or cooking, even
when boiled.
The company tried to induce
the striking shopmen to return
to work, and, falling in that, fin
ally gave notice that unless the
men did return to work the towns
water supply would be shut off.
The people then were forced to
resort to the dirty river water.N
If any lives are lost in Lyndall

murder as were the McNamaras
when they blew up the Los An
geles Time building.
The Union Pacific is part of
the Hartman system. So is the
Illinois Central.
There are men who would shut
off the air men breathe if it were
possible in order to compel them
to submit to industrial slavery.
And the men who control the
prices of food through monopoly
are guilty of the murder of those
who die because they can't get a
living no matter how hard they
may be willing to work for it.

Iowa State Federation Defeats
Election BY Popular

The Cedar Rapids Tribune, edited by
R. G. Stewart, is authority for the state
ment that the referendum vote just
taken on the question of electing officers
of the State Federation by referendum
vote, was defeated. The Socialist dele
gates in the Iowa State Federation for
number of years have advocated the
election of the officials of the state body
by referendum. At the last convention
it was decided to submit this question
to the affiliates by referendum and final
ly settle the controversy, and by ma
jority of over $50 the referendum plan OF
electing officers of the Iowa State Fed
Grafton of Labor has been defeated The
Tribune says: The result of the vote
is a sad blow to the most ardent advo-
Gates of the referendum theory, mas
much as it was nearly 80 per cent
lighter than the first test of two years
ago. and which was admitted by the
referendum followers as not being at all
representative or a fair test of the SEN

both for and against which has oc-

the contention of the ants to the effect
that there was no real demand for

the organizations that did vote is not

vote and also gave the largest majorities
against the plan The Davenport and

the largest adverse majorities from in

TRADES ASSEMBLY NOTES.

The Denver Trades Assembly met Sun
day in regular session President Bryan
was in the chair.
Delegates Common. Lowderbach and
Vessel were appointed to act temporar-
lily on the resolutions committee.
The arbitration committee reported
through a member that it had called on
the management of the Denver Post and
that they were told that the Post were
desirous of signing up with a company
that employees union miners. The Post
has sold non-union-mined coal for many
months. and the assembly desires to
have the Post sign up with a company
that sells union-mined coal when their
contract expires in December. The Post
promises to take the desired action.
The labor day committee reported
finally to the assembly the receipts and
disbursements of the committee. Chair
man Hines made the report. 1t was de-
sired by a few members that the report
be filed. but after some discussion the
report was placed in the hands of the
finance committee for report The com
mittee consists of Delegates Margaret
Noonan. Spacey and Torpey.
The Musicians union reported that
Granada hall was unfair to their organ
ization. and asked that the arbitration
committee take the matter up. This
course was pursued.
The assembly decided to take up the
note held against the assembly by the
Stage Employees. The note amounts to
over $500 and has drawn interest for the
several years that the Stage EMPLOYEES
has held the note. The matter was left
in the hands OF the board of directors.
