FOREIGN MERCHANTS COM
PLAIN ABOUT SHORT
POSTAGE.

The Department OF Commerce
is receiving complaints IN lncrea>-
inc numbers from business men
in foreign countries against the
short postage on letters received
from the United States. These
foreign merchants aver that the
double postage which they are re
uuired to pay on letters from
America is so annoying that II
turns much trade away from our
country.
Commercial Agent Thompson
writes to the Department IRON
Marseile that the large French
importers report that about hall
the American correspondence
comes with only q ltwo-cent stamp
affixed. Thus an unfavorabie I'M
preston is created. The rate Oh
letters TO France is five cents for
the first ounce or fraction OF an
ounce and three cents for each
additional ornce or fraction there
Of.
A mercantile firm at Buenos
Aires. in calling attention to tn
receipt of so many letters FROM
the United States with two-aert
stamps only thereon for which
they must pay a fine, suggests t"
the American consul there. We
suppose that this is due to a
wrong Interpretation of the posta!
rates very general among the
commercial circles of your coun
try. I'm view of the enormous in
crease in commercial exchange
with the country YOU represent,
we recommend that you take tho
necessary measures to correct this
deficiency. which viii not develop
cn"mn~oe with Argentina. "
Similar complaints have
reached the Department from Af-
rica Aus ra'ia. and many other
parts Of the worlt, and the state
ment is usually added that short
paid letters from the United States
are beginning to be refrsed.
1t has been suggested that the
simple device of using a specia,
colored envelope for foreign let
ters would prevent the oversight
of short postage. Many firms
have already aloptef this method
with success.

WHERE TO PLACE RE
SPONSpBILITY.

During the hearing by The IL
, dInois Vice Commission of the
testimony of $. ". Derby, super
tendent OF the international Shoe
Company, Senator JuuI, one of the
ommlsSlou became angry and
said:
Il want to tell YOU Mr.. Derby.
that / for one wish had the pow
or To drive Your concern from H.
lInois. You are Il disgrace to the
State.
We learned of one poor girl
who worked for YOU and was
driven 10 prostitution because
your concern paid her only $50
u week, and she could not live ON
IT. We had TO 90 into eXecu-
tive session because the testl-
mony was so rotten that the pub
he should not hear 1t
That is all very well, but be
fore Senator Juul unloads all
blame on Mr.. Derby and other
employers, let him explain what
his own position as legislator
has been. Has he, in the course
a long Legislative career, voted
for or supported any measure to
do away with the evils that make
opportunities for work in Hi
nois so scarce, that girls are glad
for a chance to work for the In
ternational Shoe Company at the
low wages paid thereY IT SO,
what measures were these
There have been such measures
before the legislature. There
have been measures introduced
many times to open the way for
the adoption of the single tax in
Illinois' Did Senator Juul sup.
port them' The adoption of the
single tax would make jobs in
Illinois so plentiful that men
would not be driven by necessity
to allow their daughters of tend
er years to fork in factories, or
their sons either. If Senator
Juul through any act of omis-
sion or commission intentionall,
DELAYED the single tax in Illinois,
then il is not for him to throw
stones at Mr.. Derby. In that case
Mr. Derby only took advantage of
conditions which Senator Juul
helped to uphold.
OF course if the Senator is one
of the few legislators who have
worked for single tax legislation
in Illinois. then he is clear of ali
blame. But even in that ease it
would have been better had he
called attention to the fundament-
al cause of the evil than assume
the self-righteOus attitude he did.

DANGER FROM GRIPPE
Lies in That Cough and Weak,
Worn-out Condition.

Grippe. pleurisy, pneumonia. these
are greatly to be feared at this time
of the year,
To prevent grippe from being fol
lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo-
mia, 1t Is important to drive the last
traces of 1t out Of the system quickly.
Our advice Is to take Vinol. our
delicious cod liver and iron prepara-
tion without oil, and get your strength
and vitality back quickly.
Mrs. A. A. Grabill Of strasburg.
Va. says: Grippe left me weak, run
down and with severe cough. from
which | suffered four years. | tried
different remedies, but nothing seemed
to do me any good until | took Vinol,
from which | received great benefit.
Fly cough Is almost entirely gone and
] am strong and well again, and | am
rlad to recommend Vinol to others
who suffer as | did
Try Vinol with the certainty
that II It does not benefit
you we will give back your money.

TO

and Merchants.

The ocean carriers have insist.
ed that on and after September
!, 1913, that they will not trans
port cotton bales put up in gin
boxes larger than p inches wide
by 81 inches long, except tor an
additional fee of one dollar per
bale.
Faymcrs.-See that the gin in
your nciyhborhood is a standard
one with the box measuring q
inches by 81 inches, and save
that dollar that the buyer will
have to deduct from the value of
your bale.
Ginners. If your gin boxes
are not standard boxes see that
you have them made so. 1t will
cost you about S. to make the
change. But it will save you and
your customers hundreds of dol.
lars.
This matter is of grave i'm.
portance as buyers of cotton will
be forced to deduct that dollar a
bale for cotton bales of larger
size than the standard in order
to protect themselves against the
charge that will be enforced by
the railroads and steamship com
panies.
Merchants.-You must pro-
tect yourselves. See that all
cotton you buy has been ginned
in a standard box. The cotton
buyer wishes you to protect
yourself as he will be forced to
collect that dollar from you ii
your cotton is not of standard
size.
See that your cotton is proper
ly housed. Don't roll it in the
mud. Keep it out of the wealth

Don't leave your money in the
