A CRucIAL MOMENT.

=, TATIsTIcs compiled by the Chamber OF Com
y nerce OF the United States show that corpora
tons in tits country represent than 100000 busi-
ness enterprises with more than S6l lOOO0OoO00 OF
stocks and s8s 600 100000 of bonds and other obea
t,ons They give employment to millions Of men and
women and supply the commercial blood that keeps
business alive in thousands of communities. Any
thing tnat affects those corporations dotrmentaly al
fects the public at large Therefore It behooves any
government Federal State municipal, to be exceed
inelv careful what Il does in dealing with them in
lerisative judicial OF executive No corpora
ton that lives up to its charter and the laws Of the
land should be harassed by government merely to graf
ify the antagonstIc spirit OF sociological dreamers and
blatant demaeogues who do not dferentate as be-
tween good corporation and a bad corporation and
who preach the gospel that because corporation
has been shown to be bad all corporations of neces-
sity must be bad. They ignore wholly the fact that
there are many more corporations that are harmless
to he public They refuse to admit in too many In
stances that BIS business is necessarily bad bust
ness
It IS interesting to that entire days of the
second an uai convention of the Chamber OF Commerce
of the United states which will be held In Washington
from February II to 1S inclusive will be given UP TO
the dsauesion of antitrust legislation ard the maine-
nance Of resale prices The Wilson snt-trust bills
viii be discussed fully and hope frankly The list
of those who will engage IN the discussion would
TO indicate that all sides Of the controversy will be
Illuminated and that as result the public win have
more intelligent view Of he situation The Chamber
Of Commerce admits that "the moment is crucial in
the nations usness history" Perhaps the convention
will lead a Democratic Congress and a Democratic
President to recognize that very important fact

An up-to-date remedy for
colds. That is what Peruna
is. In successful use over
80 years.

Colds are caught in many
ways: lily ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts;
crowded rooms; damp houses;
stuffy school rooms; Offices lily
heated.
A dose Of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener-
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent, a
bottle Of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.
