GERMANS AGAIN CHARGE
BRITISH WITH VIOLATION

WASHlNGTON. n. Count Won
Brrnstorff. the German ambassador
here, has brought to the attention of
the state department new charges OF
violation by British troops Of the
rules of international law. With his
note the ambasasdor also filed pho
tographs and original cartridges said
to have been used in violation of in
tcrnational law and photographs of
wounds said to have been caused by
their bullets.
An official statement on the sub
iect issued By the German embassa-
dor says;
New proofs of violation of the
rules of international law by Brit
ish troops have been found by the
German government:
"I-Soft -nosed cartridges have
been delivered by a wounded soldier
of the SSth Connaught Rangers regi-
ment on his return from France.
They were given to that regiment be-
fore the battle Of Mons, mixed with

AN EASY WAY TO GET ~
FAT AND BE STRONG

The trouble with most thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they
insist on drugsing their stomach or
st,.ftiEg it with greasy foods; rub
bling on useless FLESH creams. or
following some foolish physical cult
ure stunt, while the real cause OF
|thinnoss goes untouched. You can
not get fat until your digestive tract
|assimilates the food you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new scien-
|tific discovery, it is now possible to
combine into simple form the very
elements needed by the digestive or
sans to help them convert food into
rich, tat-laden blood. This master
stroke of modern chemistry is calico
|Sargol and has been termed the
greatest of flesh-builders. sargol
aims through its re-gcrerative, re-
powers to coax the
stomath and intestines to literally
soak up the fattening elements OF
your food and pass them into the
blood. where they are carried to
every starved. broken-down cell and
tissue OF your body. You can readily
picture the result when this amazing
Transformation has taken place and
you notice how your cheeks fill ont,
hullOws about your nert, shoulders
and bust disappear and you take on
from 10 to 30 pounds of solid
healthy flesh Sargol is absolutely
harmless, inexpensive, efficient. The
Hausman Drug Co. and leading drug
gists of Trinidad and vi"Inity have ii
land will refund your money If YOU
are not satisfied, as per the suaran-
tee found in every package.
Caution: While Sargol has given
excellent results in overcoming ner-
vous dyspepsia and general stomach
troubles it should not Re taken by
by those who do not wish to gain ten
pounds or more.

GENERAL BUSINESS CONDITIONS GOoD
IN COUNTRY. NATION IS PROSPEROUS

Business throughout the United
States is improving, and the convio-
tion that further advance towards
prosperity will be made in the next
few months Is widespread. In many
fundamental lines such as railroads,
iron and steel. and lumber. condi-
lions were extremely unavoidable be-
fore the outbreak of the European
depressed. BY it's frs, effects on
the money market. the war intensi-
fled this general situation for a time,
and by restricting exports, particu-
larly OF cotton. copper and some 9TH
er, products, 1t dealt serious blow
to>snch interests. which eacted upon
the Who'll. industrial fahric:i hut ip,-
provement in financial conditions
and the resumption of exports have
been followed by signs of improve
ment in many quarters. The resump-
ton of normal bushes" activities
must be gradual and TIE unusually
large number who are now unem-
ployed will find work .lowly. While
conditions are on the mend and
while radical proposals for engaging
the federal and municipal govern
nents in various projects for artifi-
cially furnishing employment have
largely disappeared. we must expect
great deal of unemployment in the
coming winter months. Charity or
ganizations, crippled by lack OF
funds, growing out of the general
business depression and perhaps in
part from the public generosity
towards sufferers in foreign lands,
are finding unusual difficulty in
meeting the larger demands made
upon them.
These are some OF the findings Of
the Industrial Economics Department
of The National Civic Federation,
which through its chairman, Mr..
John Hays Hammond, has made an
extensive inquiry into business con-
ditions in the country and the out
look for the future. Mr.. Hammond
has had reports, both in October and
in November. from about six hun
dred correspondents, including gov
errors, mayors, officials of national
banks, savings banks, railroads,
street railways, associations OF
manufacturers, boards Of trade. life
insurance companies, state fedora
tions of labor. trade unions, provi-
dent loan societies, state labor bu-
reaus and charity organizations.
Mr. Hammond presented re-
port on this correspondence to the
Annual Meeting of The National CIV
ic Federation, to be held at Hotel AS
tor, December a and ., where the
problem of unemployment and the
other financial and industrial ques'
ttons arising out of the war wiz be
considered
The first reports, dated generally
about October 90, refer to the state
of business at that time, while the
second series of reports bear the
dates OF November 20 and 81, and
deal with the changes which have
taken place within the month. The
