French Remedy for
Stomach Troubles

The leading doctors of France have
for years used a prescription of vege-
table oils for chronic stomach trouble
and constipation that acts like a charm.
One dose will convince. Severe cases
of years standing are often greatly
benefited within "a hours. So many
people are getting surprising results
that we feel that all persons suffering
from constipation, lower bowel, liver
and stomach troubles should try Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy. 1t is sold by lead
ing druggists everywhere with the pos
tive understanding that your money
will be refunded without question or
quibble if ONE bottle fails to give you
absolute satisfaction. 80

Capital No Longer Nervous

After business conditions in this country began to improve following the depression caused by the Euro pean war capital, proverbially timid, was naturally slow in seeking invest ment. It was particularly slow in taking ventures along the line of in dustrial development. But with a re- vival of activity on the New York stock market and with a healthy de- mand for good securities large capi- tai became less nervous.
 With confidence restored, in meas ure at least, far-seeing men of great wealth and idle capital began to con- sider propositions for investment in new enterprises, and the result is seen today in the tide of money flow ing into various industrial centers where it is used in the work of up- building.
 
 ington growing out of this country's foreign relations, capital for attractive investment is readily available. The Birmingham district is getting good share of this recently turned-loose capital. Within the past three months money amounting to millions of dol lars, most of it from New York, has been invested in this district and an- nouncements of large significance will continue to be made.
 Within a week plans have been per fected for shipbuilding plant at Mo- bile, something which will be of di- rect benefit to industrial Birming- ham. And right on the heels of that announcement comes the conclusion of deal in which large outside capi- tai plays a part-the purchase of a large coal mining company near Bir- mingham.
 These and many other facts familiar to the public make it plain that busi- ness recovery is not only stable but that new era of prosperity has ar rived.

Conditions in Poland

The unfortunate people of Poland, caught in the clash of armies and stripped of everything they possessed, have for sometime been the objects of universal pity, but if such thing is possible, their plight is growing even worse. Mime. Helene Paderewski, who came to the United States with her husband, Ignace Paderewski, the famous pianist, to raise funds for Polish relief, gives heart-rending picture of the suffering of their fellow countrymen. She tells of babies suck ing beet root wrapped in rag to les sen the bangs of hunger, of men for merly we'll to do subsisting on bark and hay, of women dying with their children in makeshift huts because they cannot get food, and of thou sands of cities and villages leveled with the ground. Fields which were formerly rich and productive are GOV cred with rocks and clay from the trenches of the Russians, Germans and Austrians.
 Of all the cities in Poland only Warsaw and Cracow have been left as they were before the war began. The rest of the country is in ruins and twenty million people are starving. Mime. Paderewski says there have been no cattle in Russian Poland since Au- gust, when the invading German army confiscated all the foodstuffs of the country. The Paderewski estate in Galicia, where the pianist was wont to keep open house, is now in ruins. Armies have been fighting over it since last November.
 Relief committees organized under the direction of Paderewski and Henryk Sienkiewicz, author of Quo Vadis?" are at work in Warsaw, Cracow and Lemberg. Americans have always been quick to sympathize with the unfortunate Poles, whose history has been series of disasters, and the Paderewskis should meet with gener- ous aid in this country Much has beer done for the relief of the Belgians who were the first to profit by Ameri. can generosity. It is now incumbent on us to render similar aid to the Poles, who equally deserve it.

might drive to call upon patients liv- ing in the suburbs. But the horse re- fused to cross a bridge-would stop still and refuse to set foot upon a bridge. The doctor decided to sell the horse, as he could not visit the suburbs without crossing bridges somewhere along the route.
 He knew that if he told the whole truth about the horse he could not sell it, but deluded himself into thinking he was too conscientious to misrepre- sent the animal. After considerable ef fort he produced an ad which read:
 "For Sale-A bay horse, warranted sound and kind. The only reason for selling is because the owner is obliged to leave the city"
 Which, in your opinion, is the worst, the riproaring, flambouyant liar who comes right out with it, or the one who, like the Boston doctor, veils his falsehood under veneer of left handed truth?

The Sugar Market

There are now indications of renewed activity on the sugar market" remarked J. H. Mccall, who is member of Bir- mingham brokerage firm
 There have already been slight ad- vances on the local market. Tuesdays quotation being $633 less per cent on the hundred weight. This is net rise of 10 points over previous quotations. As this is the season for canning fruits I would not be at all surprised if the market ad- vanced rapidly with the advent of an in- creaS>S demand.
 Most of the sugar now being consumed in this country is coming from Cuba, and the demands being made upon this coun- try are extremely heavy. It is true that the sugar crop being made on this island is very large this year. But it must be remembered that England. France. Italy and other European countries now must depend upon this country as a source of supply while the war continues. The best fields of Germany and Austria are naturally not now available for the pro- duction of Europe's enormous demands. '1 understand that the supplies of sugar in Cuba are in very strong hands and that | purchases are being steadily made by European agencies. In my opinion, the If not quite, as high as was the case al the beginning of the war. The upward

SPAGHETTI KING DIMES

There was spaghetti with clams, There was spaghetti with mushrooms. There was spaghetti with paste of to- matoes. There was spaghetti with chestnuts. There was spaghetti with small fish. There was spaghetti with lowered around. Madame lowered fried meat balls. There was spaghetti with oil For dessert, there was spa shetti with confections.

 And with every dish the maitre d'hotel around. Del Pezzo himself waited anx- iously, to say nothing of the walters and the other diners. For Francesca Buonomini himself was to pronounce verdict
 Here it is something that is choice. Here it is something that with certainty is going to please monsieur" For we all unconsciously dropped into French. French is still the language of courts, and it was the king of all the spaghetti whom we entertained.
 Here Is something choice. Try it, monsieur" and Francesca Buonomini would agglomerate forkful of those spaghetti and hold it poised. Then he would open his mouth
 My friend, if only once in your life- time you might have seen Francesco| Buonomini, that very big, saturnine man with that very small, black mus tache, engulf one forkful of spaghetti You will never know what you havel| missed.
 Ca plait-il a monseur?"
 And Francesca Buonomini would waitl to satisfy himself his palate was notl cheating him, and then would answer {l C'est bien joli, ca"-"It was verN| pretty thing, that"-and all the roonll would breathe again.
 Del Pezzo himself conducted us to thd] sacred upper chamber where the opei all artists gather for their after opera sup-D pers. We looked at the originals oH Caruso's caricatures. "C'est bien joli| ca said Francesca Buonomini. We descended to the. equally sacred| depths of the kitchen. As peers shakdI hands, Del Pezzo's chef and Buonomins] shook hands. Then he looked aboui him. "Cest bien joli, ca" he said.

FREEDOM OF THE SEAS fha wa shinUto Post


 Our duty to humanity only strengthens and supports our national duty to our own citizens, and the Post will hail with qualification, pleasure and delight when the following plank of the democratic platform adopted at Baltimore July, 1912. becomes the fixed policy of the govern ment of the United States.
 "The constitutional rights of American citizens should protect them on our bor- ders and go with them throughout the world, and every American citizen residing or having property in any foreign country is entitled to and must be given the full protection of the United States gov ernment, both for himself and his prop erty."
 That is good democratic policy; that is good republican policy; that must be our national policy if the United States is to do its duty to humanity and to itself.
