ROLPH HEARS N. Y. MUSIC
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsrArcH1

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9-Mayor Rolph, over the long distance telephone tonight heard the music of the orches- tra in the Hotel Astor, New York. Calling up the Astor, where the mem- bers of the Far Western Travelling Mems Association were holding a ban quet, to invite them to San Francisco, the music was so plain it had to be in- terrupted so the conversation could be heard.
 After the music stopped the mayor invitation was repeated to the ban queters and their cheering acceptance was clearly heard by the mayor, as he concluded his conversation.

DANGEROUS DEBILITY

Debility may result from a number
of causes-worry. after effects of acute
illness, lack of nourishment due to dis
ordered digestion, or anything that
makes the blood thin, thereby prevent
ing it from carrying health and nour-
ishment to the tissues of the body.
The symptoms of debility vary, but
weakness is always present, often a
tendency to fatigue easily, ringing in
the ears, black spots passing before
the eyes, weak back. dizziness, wake
fulness caused by inability to stop
thinking, and unrefreshing sleep.
Debility is dangerous because it
weakens the body's defense against
disease. For instance. debilitated peo-
pie take cold easily and winter is al
ways a trying time for them. When
one cold follows another the system
surely needs building up.
The treatment O. such rundown
conditions with DIR. Williams Pink
Pills is based on sound medical prin-
ciples and common sense. These pills

before the Pennsylvania electorate and
all the halfway, measures that were
employed during the struggle to get the
resolution safely through the legisla-
i've stage must henceforth be aban-
doned. Platform pledges, endorse
ments by organizations and prominent
citizens, Jonquil teas and mass meet
ings attended largely by women will
be all very we'll in their way, but the
ultimate decision lies in the hands of
the individual voters, and equal suf-
frage advocates will do well to keep
that fact in mind in planning the
campaign which they must make be-
tween this and the elections in No

the plain man in the streets and on
the farms the better it will be for their
cause.

The desire for social intercourse Is
not confined to those who can afford
the privileges of the city or the coun-

situated as to entertain in their own

themselves in the position of accepting
charity AS they are now conducted,
those who frequent them have no voice
in their management. 1t is all well

a way is found to give the people who
make use of them a voice in their
management and a share in planning
and executing their activities social

way will be found to conduct them
in some such manner. Only in that
way can they be made to yield their
maximum of benefit to the community

which Representative McCaig, of
\ Allegheny county, presented in
the House of Representatives
this morning, calling upon public off,
cials and managers of public and pri-
vate institutions to specify in their re-
quests for bids for supplies that the
goods to be purchased shall be made
in America.
With comparatively few exceptions,
domestic products may be used for
the purposes outlined, as well as those
imported. In many cases, no doubt,
the contractor puts in foreign-made
goods because purchasers in this coun-
try have been all too prone to give
preference to anything bearing the
mark imported Often the Euro
pean-made article has been selected
to the exclusion of American manu-
featured goods for no other reason
than that the buyer has labored I'M
der the mistaken idea that it must he
better simply because it was made
overseas and brought into this couu-
try to be sold in competition with that
made at home.
If this misunderstanding could be
corrected and merchants and COR
tractors brought to the belief that the
public really wants goods of American
manufacture, there would be no qucs-
tion of an enormous increase of do
mestic trade, for despite the war in
Europe far too many imports are COM
ing into the country that might be
turned out just as easily and with far
more profit all around in American
