RAILWAY MEN AND WATERS
CLUB.

While the Railroad Men and Wait,
ers' Club has always been an attract
tive pleasure resort, Manager Frank
Burnley is continuously adding to it's
beauty in various ways, the latest of
which is an installment of some very
fine pictures, which together with
those that already adorn the wall, pre-
sent very attractive as well as ad-
mirable gallery, and to see the men,
bers and visitors going from room to
room commenting on the several
groups, reminds one of a crowd surg
ing around a circus managerie.
The reading or library room with all
the latest books, papers and maga-
zines is feature that affords much
pleasure to those seeking the latest
news, as well as information on most
any subject, and much knowledge is
obtained through reading and discus
sions. There is always something do
ing in the musical department, where
finished musicians manipulate the
keys of the beautiful upright piano,
the soft tones of which float with the
melody of excellent vocalists.
The pastime games comprise those
of pool, billiards, whist, cribbage,
chess and checkers, all of which af-
ford much amusement. Those who
know the congenial manager, Frank
Burnley, deem it a pleasure to speak
in the highest terms of the Railway
Men and Walters Club, which is locat-
ed at 2149 Curtis street

1T PAYS CENT PER CENT.

We advise the Negro to take little
advice from those who have attained
success through strictly business
methods; always giving the whole of
the time you contract for with your
employer, not dividing, for your per-
sonal ends, entertaining the high
est and best motives for the sue
cess of your employers business, dis
carding any suggestive thought of
DISHONESTY, and possessing the
loftiest ambition and aspiration of be-
coming your own boss sooner or later
by your constant application to the
job. Learn while you may, for this is
the way to be happy and gay. Despise
any petty actions that will bring dis
grace to self and family and more par
ticularly place stumbling in
the way of others of your race sue
ceeding. Your position, remember,
with the present condition of things,
it is quite an advantage and benefit
to you to be able to be working and
earning a livelihood, when there are
millions unemployed. The salaries and
wages may not be commensurate with
the employment, but "he that is con-
tented in little is also contented in
much" Go to the ant, thou sluggard,
consider her ways, and be wise.

Uncle Sans Debt

How much does Uncle Sam owe?
asks the Pathfinder. Exactly
So, 1924, 657, 1853. 66. At least this was
the figure az the close of treasury bust
ness for August. This is the gross
debt The government has cash and
other assets to set off against this
amount so that the net debt is only
81, O52, 1856, 4O6. 80. In other words the
Nation owes, above its available as
sets, little more than round billion
dollars. This looks big but its small
compared to the debts of most of the
leading nations and these latter will be
bigger still after the war

CAUSED BY OVEREATING

Deficient gastric secretion, meaning
lack of the fluids necessary for digestion,
is prevalent condition. You may have
it now and not know it because you are
able to get along without actual discom-
fort even with your enfeebled digestion
But if you overeat-then you are in
trouble. You have indigestion because
you have given your weakened stomach
too much to do. The deficient gastric
secretion was what doctors call the pre-
disposing cause, the overeating was the
exciting cause. 1t is easy not to repeat
the overeating but the predisposing cause
must be corrected if you are to be well.
The secretions that digest the food
come from glands that are nourished di-
rectly by the blood. When these secre-
lions are insufficient the only way to re-
store their healthful condition is BY build
ing up the blood. This can be done by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, the non-alco-
holic tonic that assists nature in keeping
the body in health. Proper attention to
diet and the use of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills should be tried in cases of disorder
ed digestion because it is the simple and
natural way to correct the trouble.

Would Hate Been Worr6
Much

The Initiative and Referendum amend
ment would have been worth $40, 900, 600
to the people of Wisconsin on the acts
of one legislature alone. Regardless
of the principle that the people should
have the privilege of direct
control of their own affairs.
the stupendous possibilities of
such control in bringing about create
economy in state affairs should cause
every taxpayer to give his vote for the
adoption of this amendment at the polls
on Nov. 8. All other issues of this
campaign are but secondary in compari-
son with the adoption of this amend
ment. The referendum means that the
people will have the chance to stop
the crooked work of lobbyists and the
bad work of poor legislators at one and
the same time. Speaker Merlin Hull.

Them Good Old Days

Somebody said the other day that it
occurred to them that the papers of
Wisconsin were not as good as they
used to!be when George w. Peck and
other scribes were dipping their pens
into the depths and writing hot stuff.
Perhaps not. A leaning back to the
good old days reminds us of a Kansas
editor who wrote that the times wer, a
lot more interesting when he was dane
ing the Newport and the military schot-
tische with the girls of his youth and
stepping gently but firmly on their
feet. And the girls generally were a
lot prettier twenty years ago than they
are now. And they used to fry chicken
better, and have prettier songs to sing
than they have now, and better voices
for singing. It's hard to tell just what
it is that has got in the gearing of the
universe to make 'er creak and groan
and rasp, but something's gone wrong.

not until they are all killed, wounded
or taken prisoners, but until some of
the nations at war have no more money
or supplies. Millions of dollars daily
are being expended on land, on sea, in
the air and under the sea. This enor-
NOUS cost cannot go on forever and
when it is over there will be time to de-
termine the whole expenditure and
what it has purchased.
The fierce engagements from Ostend
to Belfort and from the North Sea to
Servia is horribly eloquent of the fact
that the war is but begun. With wir-
ter coming on, with rain and muddy
roads, dash either way is not prob
able. 1t means many killed and wound
ed without decisive victory.

Arming For Peace

In July everybody knew Great Bri-
tan had no army to speak of. Alone
among great European nations, she re-
jected CONSUMPTION and relied on vol
untary enlistment. But, whatever
confusion there may be about details,
it is certain the British troops were
exceedingly effective during the first
week of the war; and by that time re-
cruiting at home was bringing the force
above one million men.
To speculate on what would have
happened if the Kaiser in the first
week of August had thrown million
disciplined soldiers into England is as
bootless as to speculate on what would
happen if he should throw the moon
into Fleet street. The point is that in
a great military crisis England had no
good cause to regret her policy of nom
CONSUMPTION. When British troops were
pushing the German left the English
Chancellor of the Exchequer reminded
delegation of municipal officers who
wanted financial aid from the central
government that the contest in which
the nation was engaged would very
likely be won finally by the lastItwo or
three hundred million pounds ster-
ling.
1.-The first two or three hundred
millions" he said, "our enemies can
find as easily as we can. The last
two or three hundred millions they
can't"
In a prolonged contest financial en-
durance may count quite as much as
military strength, and Great Britain
was stronger financially because she
had not been supporting hundreds of
thousands of conscripts I in kidleness
with borrowed money. Doubtless we
shall hear less hereafter about huge
ornaments as guarantees of peace

First Three Months Of tie
war.
Var.

Three months of the terrible war in
Europe have passed without decisive
result. Servia, Austria, Germany, Rus
g Belgium, France, England Japan and
Turkey have been drawn into the conflict
one by one and it is probable that Italy
and Portugal will take a hand before
the end comes. tits truly world war
During the three months the Germans
have fought to within about thirty
miles of Paris and within sight of the
guided mosques of Warsaw only to be
driven back to their former intrench-
ments far in the rear. When the Ger
mans approached Paris some weeks
ago their rear was threatened and it was
inevitable that the army must not be
cut in twain. AS to why they did not
push into Warsaw has not been ex-
planned as some Of the German generals
are of the opinion the city could at one
time have been taken. Poor Belgium
is laid waste and many Of her people
have either been killed or are refugees.
Their capital is in France and her
army is aiding in keeping the enemy
back. The fighting line extends all the
way from Switzerland to the coast near
Ostend and here the two armies will
probably fight for some time to come.
1t will be the same with the armies on
the other side of Germany. The three
months have developed that it is a case
Of life and death with Germany and
France and possibly England. Russia
could not possibly be taken during the
next few winter months. The fleets
have not met and a decisive victory
here would be great factor in bringing
the war to an end. AS it is, the armies
of millions of men will probably keep
hammering away for months to come,

With the outbreak of hostiIlties in

codes seemed to disappear. The
practical advantages of lies. deceits,
broken pledges and the terrorizing
effects of barbarous atrocities were
apparently too strongafor governments

of chivalry or fairness, all respect for
