RUSSIAN VAULTS HOLD
LARGEST HOARD OF GOLD

Petrograd, Aug. THE largest
hoard of gold in the world is that held
in the vaults of the Russian state
bank, amounting to about $S50OOO,-
O0O Yet a visitor may travel from
one end of the Russian empire to the
other and not see enough gold coin
to buy a pair of shoes. Paper cur
rency is used universally.
The check system, as it prevails in
the United States and England, is
practically unknown in Russia AL
though the larger cities have many
fine banks, the ordinary provincial
business man distrusts banks, and
there are hundreds of thousands of
prosperous Russians who never had a
banking account in their lives. Their
working capital is represented hy pa
per currency of big denomination
which they carry in a leather bag
suspended by a thong around their
neck. In Russia the visitor may meet
shaggy men whose dress and appear
ance suggests the artisan class. who
are carrying with them constantly
from five to ten thousand dollars in
currency.

RECRUITING OFFICER EMPLOYS
NEW METHOD IN BUSINESS

Fishguard, England, Aug. Ser
geant Fuller, who recently won the
Victoria Cross in Flanders and has
since been assisting in the recruiting
campaign in England, won two re-
cruits here by entering a lions den.
Fuller was speaking at an open-air
meeting in a vacant lot adjoining a
small menagerie, when two Young men
in the outskirts of the audience jest
ingly remarked to him: "We'll join
if you are brave enough to enter
that lions cage unarmed.''
"Pll take you at your word" re-
turned Fuller, without moments
hesitation. Lions have no terror for
anyone who has been in the front
trenches in Flanders"
He strode over to the menagerie,
obtained the permission Cf the pro
prietor, and entered the cage where
there were two lions Amid tremen-
dous excitement in the crowd he
calmly stroked the lions FOR a mo-
ment or two and then walked cut OF
the cage and resumed his pace on the
recruiting platform.

Hot Weather Bad
for Women's Nerves
Season When They Most
Need Their Strength to
Withstand the Heat

Hot weather has a decidedly weak
ening effect on most women. They be-
come too languid to exercise, and as
result have appetite only for light,
tasty foods, like salads and other cold
concoctions, which do not digest readi-
ly and increase the natural tendency
to constipation.
At this season women should main
tain the highest possible standard of
health, to counteract the enervating
effect of the weather. Good digestion
and regularity of the bowels are es-
sential. The combination of simple
laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in
drug stores under the name of Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is highly
recommended as a laxative and di-
gestant by many physicians, as well
as by thousands of women who de-
pend upon it as remedy for many of
those ills to which women seem more
especially susceptible.
Get fifty cen+ bottle of Dr. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin from your drug
gist and have it in the house. Take a

WILL Be No
COTTON PANIC
THIS YEAR
SEVERAL GOOD REASONS WHY
SET THE SURPLUS FINANCING
MACHINE IN MOTION is ALL
THAT'S NEEDED.

There will be no cotton panic this
years. The situation is entirely diff
ferent from 1914. The difference lies
partly in the smaller crop, partly in a
more highly organized carrying capaci-
ty in the south through closer coop
Grafton in banking and credit circles,
and partly in the attitude of the peo-
pie themselves. The last year of chas-
tening has brought out "A much higher
spirit of self-dependence in cotton
growing communities. We also have
better banking machinery for the
country as whole.
The problem of carrying cotton is a
question of taking care of the carry
over of 100000 bales and of hold
ing the surplus out of this years 12,-
coo, ,OOO-bale crop. Domestic mills are
expected to take 100000 bales and
exporters 100000 bales, leaving a
surplus of only 100000 bales, on this
estimate, to be specially financed. A
cooperative movement among finan
cial interests, which have already Civ
en- tentative consideration to the prob
lem, is said to be prepared to raise a
fund adequate to make effective the
| protective plan.
Last year without cooperation a
fund of $1OO,OO0O00, raised nobody
cared where, was regarded as neces
sary to carry the surplus. Then the
crop was over 100000 bales larger
| Now, with four district reserve
banks ready to work together through
the federal reserve board, the task Is
being accepted by the south itself
For instance, these banks are en-
abling the the southern jObber, mer
chant and manufacturer, to avail him
self of acceptances through member
banks, thereby preventing the needs
of the mercantile and industria
| branches of business from hamperin&
the cotton trade.
Federal reserve authorities have
laid much emphasis on adequate ware
housing facilities. Thanks to farmers
unions, to state encouragement, tC
railway terminal companies and Others
! the south has enough storing space
for the whole crop but it is not wei
distributed. Good warehousing is es
sential to the financial plan now being
worked out If official grading b!
government standards be added anC
clear title be assured to cotton where
warehouse certificates are to serve
as collateral, borrowing arrangement
| at 60 per cent of cotton value on sil
months paper seems entirely prac
ticable under the law.
What is needed now is a little or
dnary initiative to set the surplus
financing machine in motion. Thu
the south will get through this cottoi
year with a new sense of demon
strated credit power, and the crol
that caused panic last year will onl,
create confidence this season.-Wal
