Due to Quick Action

EarIy in August-when war began-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to u.s.
Rubber prices doubled almost over night
Men could See no way to pay for rubber
abroad and no way to bring it in. We, like
Others that panic-were forced to higher
prices. But have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war, and this is how
We did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out. The larger part of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabed them to buy up the pick Of the rub
Der. They bought-before the advance ,5OO,-
600 pounds of the finest rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to US.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtanable abroad.
Today we have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those are the worlds
chief sources of rubber So We are pretty well
assured of constant supply, and our pick Of
the best that's produced.
We we're first on the ground. We were quick
est in action. As result, we shall soon have in

storage an almost record supply of this extra
grade Of rubber.
And We paid about June prices.
Now Inferior Grades Cost Double
About the only crude rubber available nov
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times,
the best tire makers refuse it. Much of it had
been rejected. But that ''oif rubber" now sells
for much more than paid for the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance Of
Goodyears. And many tire makers, short Of
supplies, will be forced to use second-grade
rubber.

The attention of people on Water st.
was attracted Sunday afternoon by a
large flock of nighthawks. These birds,
many of whom have their nesting
places on the fiat gravel roofs of some
of the buildings along Water street,
are seen during the summer evenings
winging their erratic fight in the vi
cinity of the street and also along
the water front where they catch myr-
lads Of small insects and in this way
get their food supply, but do not US
ually appear in such numbers as were
seen Sunday afternoon. 1t may have
been that they were assembling for the
fall migration south but as they do
not usually leave for a warmer climate
until about the last of September it
would hardly seem that they had
started thus early In the rural dis
tricts nighthawks lay their eggs upon
the ground or upon fiat rock, making
but little pretense of anything like a
nest, but in the cities they find the
gravel roofs to their liking and In the
early summer their eggs, or their
young, two in number, are often
found in those places.

Here Is Good News

Some very remarkable ressts ere
being obtained by treating stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles with pucc
vegetable oils, which exert a cleansing.
soothing and purifying action upon
the lower bowels, removing the OBJ
structions of poisonous fecal matter
and gases and preventing their alb

food is allowed free passage from the
stomach, fermentation ceases and
stomach troubles quickly disappear.
George H. Mayr, for twenty years a
leading Chicago druggist, cured HIM
self and many of his friends of stom-
ach. liver and intestinal trouble Of
years standing by this treatment, and
so successful was the remedy he de-
vised that it has since been placed in
the hands Of druggists all over the
country, who have sold thousands of
bottles.
Though absolutely harmless, the eff
