When the stomach fails to do it's
work properly the whole machine of
man is unstrung and wholly incapable
of work. This condition obtains from
the tiniest nerve to the big, strong,
pumping heart.
1t is a wise law of nature that has
made the stomach mans strongest or

to realize that it does so because it
can continue no longer.

CRANE CONCERN TO GIVE

Business all over the country has

Iecially since the beginning of the
war, and it has been difficult to keep
the manufacturing plants running even
ON short time.
while the Crane company kept its
full working force of employees, it was
necessary to shorten the hours, and
this resulted in a serious shrinkage in
the mems wages-a condition whi---
was regretted, but could not be avoid
ed, as no market could be found for
the quantity of product turned out
when running TO capacity.
"Of course the operation of the shops

AT THE MAJESTIC.

Manager Quinn OF the Majestic the
atre announces definitely today that
the local house has secured the rights
to the Paramount program. the all-star
feature pictures and the World Film
Corporation output IL is a big order
for Rock Island, no other house in the
three cities having such a large pro-
gram of features. The Paramount pro-
gram alone is split in Davenport be
tween two of the leading photoplay
houses OF that city and only one of
them secures All-Star and World feat
ures. Therefore Manager Quinn feels
that such big things as the Majestic is
signed TO take is quite an order. but
thinks that Rock Island photoplay
goers will find these great features so
entertaining that they will prefer
them in place of the short single or
double reel subjects. A glance at the
advertisement tonight shows that
nearly every big player or actress of
any reputation has been secured by
these three gigantic film corporations.
The Famous Players Film company
alone is one OF the biggest in the world
and is the only company holding Mary
Pickford under contract for a long
term. Miss Pickford. however. good
as she is. with a world of popularity in
her work is not the only drawing card.

stars will indicate. Julia Marlowe and

| discussing the agricultural hearing.
THE overshadowing of the urban in
| dustrial centers with unOrganized
unskilled laborers, many of whom
speak English imperfectly and are
not qualified to seek or bargain for
work on terms of preference, has
brought before the commission the i'm
portance of finding ways to redistri-
butte this labor. In all parts of the
county we also hear of the difficulty
! of securing farm workers al certain
seasons and of the desire for addi-
tional population for farm production.
The question then is, can the rural
population assimilate part of this sur
plus, and, is so. how? 1t is a problem
that concerns the industrial units of
society as well as the agricultural.
Created in the latter part of the
Taft administration for the purpose
of looking into the causes of in
dustrial unrest and proposing con-
structive and remedial measures to
congress, the commissions work the
past year has been mainly the send
ing out of trained men for the gather
ing of facts, and the holding of pub
lie hearings in representative sections
of the country. Frank p. Walsh of
Kansas City, Mo-, is chairman of the
commission.
At the Dallas hearing the growth of
feeling of unrest among the rural
population, the work of the Renters
Union of America, taxation as a means
of destroying land monopoly, rural
credit plans, organization for the
marketing of farm products, and the
advent of corporation control over
communities will be important topics
of discussion.
The corporation control of every
productive, distributive and financial
agency in a community with an elab-
crate system of small bosses who do
nothing but supervise the work of the
laborers, is illustrated by one large
farm run by corporation with mil
lions of dollars behind it," says one
of the commission investigators. But
the significance of such a system is
that the same company will not only
own all the farming land but will !
have a monopoly on stores. butcher
shops, manufacturing plants. hotels, /
etc. Such a possibility, where num- |
bers of people are living with none of
the rights of free-holders, who can be !
thrown on of private property at any !
time they object TO the wage or liv- !
ing conditions. demands specific leg !,
islation of a constructive nature"

CAST o. CHARACTERs

The New York Grand Opera com
pany gave finished Interpretation of
Gounod's Faust" at the Illinois the
atre last evening before the smallest
audience of the season at that play
house. Despite the cheerlessness OF
an almost totally vacant auditorium
the singers seemingly entered with
full spirit into their work. and the
handful OF people present Joined in ex-
pressing their appreciation as effect
lively as possible for their numbers.
The public. in this instance, is not
wholly to blame for the poor patron
age accorded the New York Grand
Opera company. Responsibility rests
chiefly with the management of that
organization. In this day, before the
people will lay their money down at
the box office they must know, beyond
any questioning. what they are to re-
ceive in return. Had the managers of
the opera company given more definite
advance information TO the public
here. backed by proper assurances of
the merit OF the company personnel.
doubtless there would have been a
more generous response. The simple
announcement that the company is
from New York is not enough in 1914.
Those who did turn out last night have
nothing TO regret. The opera was
beautifully produced. in every detail.
The company IS TO remain in the tri-
cities for three days, and It is to be
