what We have to fight
Close to Japan, like stepping child

few years ago is going on now IN
China. The awakening Of China is
more marvellous than In Japan. and as

TAKE SODA FOR
SOURNESS, GAS
OR INDIGESTION

Undigested food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, ferments,
the same as food left in the open air,
says q noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by Hy.
per-acidity, meaning, there is an ex-
cess of hydrochloric acid in the stom.
ach. which prevents complete diges-
ton and starts food fermentation.
Thus everything eaten sours in the
stomach much like garbage sours in
a can, forming acrid fluids and gases
which initiate the stomach like a toy
balloon. Then we feel heavy. lumpy
misery in the chest, We belch up gas,
We eructate sour food or have heart
burn, fatulence, water-brash or
nausea.
To get instant relief, he tells us to
get a package of 10 grain Sodagen tab
let's at any pharmacy and take one or
two tablets anytime, followed by q
tumbler OF water, which promptly
neutralizes this irritating acid; stops
fermentation; absorbs the gass and
sweetens the entire digestive system.
A local downtown druggist states
that these 10 grain Sodagen tablets
are an old favorite antacid constant.

CLEANLINESS RECEIVES.
$22,609,77 IN TAXES

One of the biggest days business
ever done in the county treasurer's Of
flee was concluded yesterday before
the doors closed at 9 o'clock to remain
closed for the week. A total of
$22,6O9.77 was collected from persons
who crowded the office to get their
receipts before the ten per cent. de-
linquency penalty is added.
1t is estimated that more than 1000
persons paid taxes yesterday. The Of
flee opened at o'clock in the morn
ing with long line at the door. Tax
payers waited through the noon hour
in order not to lose their places.
When the office opened last night,
there was line waiting from the Of
flee door through the corridor and
ending at the head of the stairs.
The office will be closed until next
Monday in order to get out bank lists
for several townships. After that de.
linquents will be allowed to pay their
taxes with the added ten per cent
and the extra collection fee.
The heavy last minute rush prevent.
ed an expected increase in the mum
Der of delinquencies and the number
will be about the same as last year
with the amount proportional. AL
most all the delinquencies are on per
sonal property or on real estate OF
negligible value, sometimes of less val
ue than the amount of the tax.

COMBING WON'T RID
HAIR OF DANDRUFF
The Easiest and Best Way Is to Dis
solve 1t.

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most if not all of your dandruff will be
gone, and three or four more applica-
tions will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging Of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes it fall out, but it makes it
stringy, straggly, dull, dry. brittle and
lifeless, and everyone notices it. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive and never
fails to do the work.

STONE EXPLAINS /,
TOLLS CONSISTENCY
[eY LEASED WIRE1

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Senator
William ]. Stone, of Missouri, chair.
man of the senate committee on for.
eign relations and a member of the
platform committee of the Baltimore
convention, today told the senate that
he found his vote for free tolls in
1912 fully consistent with a vote for
the repeal of free tolls at this time.
He declared that in 1912 he voted
for free tolls as a means of asserting
the right of the United States to dis
pose of the tolls question without ask
ing the consent of any other nation
He would vote for the repeal this year
because he was ready to dispose of the
matter as purely domestic issue, and
on that issue he always had stood op-
posed to a ship subsidy.
"On the merits of the pending ques.
tion," Senator Stone said, 81 can find
no satisfactory reason why the Ameri
can people should grant a subsidy OF
millions to this special interest, the
coastwise merchant fleet, which now
enjoys under our laws an absolute mo-
nopoly of the enormous traffic carried
along the coast of the seas bordering
this continent. The construction of the
canal has cost the American people
$4O0, 100000. Why should these already
favored ships be permitted to utilize
farthing to it's maintenance or toward
the expense of passing them through
sea to sea-"

CLOWNS FEATURE
LONDON SHOW

There is no tented aggregation
whose performance is complete with
out CLOVIS. There are clowns and there
are CLOVIS, but show is much better
without them unless they are clowns
that are funny without being foolish.
Only fool will laugh at his folly, is
maxim that stands good in relation
to clowns, just the same as it does to
those who are not clowns. Clowns are
only engaged to make other laugh, and
the successful clown is he who can
create laughter without laughing him
self The Howe Great London show is
coming here Thursday, May Z, and
will bring no less than forty of these
funny fellows, and they are funny.
There are pantomime clowns, aero
batic clowns. juggling clowns and
clowns that perform acts of magic in
their own inimitable style. Then there
are the comis supplement bunch, from
old Happy Hooligan to Mutt and jeff,
and they look and act their parts.

JOROON TO PROPOSE
MORE DAYLIGHT PLAN
Secretary of the Commercial
Club Would Re-adjust the
Working Hours.
"An-Hour-More of Daylight"

"AnHour-More of Daylight" move
ment may be started in Richmond. The
matter of operating by Eastern time,
which is an hour earlier, will be put
before manufacturers, business and
professional men by Charles Jordan,
secretary of the Commercial club at
the meeting Monday night.
In other cities where the movement
for an additional hour of daylight is on
foot, Eastern time west of the Allie
ghenies is being adopted, and east of
Pittsburg in some cities clocks are be-
set an hour earlier.
Mr.. Jordan believes that the "hour
more of daylight" could be secured by
adjusting the schedules of work and
business to conform with central time
Instead of starting work at O'Clock
In the morning and quitting at s
O'Clock in the afternoon, work would
be started at O'Clock in the morning
and end at 4 o'clock; meals would
be served an hour earlier, the retiring
hour would be earlier, and the sun ap
parently would set an hour later.
Under the plan of other cities clocks
are adjusted and working schedules
remain the same with the same result
in the end.
When the plan was suggested to
him, Mr.. Jordan believed it of suffi
cient Importance to bring before the
citizens of Richmond for some express
sion from them. Probably vote will
be taken by the meeting next Monday
night
The cooperation of business men
and manufacturers would be required
or the scheme would be flat failure
The hour less Of darkness would not
materially affect them, except possibly
as far as the efficiency and comfort
of the employees are concerned. 1t is
said. however, that business houses re
naming open for two hours after even
ing meal time, under the "hOur-more
of-daylight" plan. require no electric
lights, as it is daylight until closing
time.
Cincinnati. Cleveland and other big
cities have campaigns on to adopt the
plan. The only objection is railroad
schedules, which probably would be
operated by Central time regardless OF
the time used by city clocks.

"Complexion Secrets
of An Actress"

In a recently issued volume bearing
the above title, the author says:
Continuous use of grease paints,
rouge and the like, had ruined my
complexion. My skin was colorless,
wrinkled, coarse and punctured with
large pores. In England l heard of
the virtues of mercolized wax; my
first experience with this marvellous
substance convinced me is was more
valuable than all cosmetics COM
bined. Now whenever my complexion
begins to go wrong I get an ounce of
mercolized wax at the nearest drug
store, spread on a thin layer of it be-
fore retiring, washing it off next morn
ing The wax, after a few such treat
ments, seems literally to absorb the
WORKOUT cuticle, when brighter,
healthier, younger-looking skin ap-

For the wrinkles and enlarged
pores I began using a solution of saxo-
lite, one ounce dissolved in half pint
of witch hazel. Bathing the face in
