WILSON IS CHEERED
 AT POLISH RALLY
New York Speakers Arouse Much En- thusiasm at Gathering in SIri-
 tulsky's Broad Street Hall.

Enthusiasm is the cause of demo- cracy and in the reelection of Wood row Wilson as President of the United States was aroused to a high pitch at the Polish-AmericAn rally in Skritul- skys hall on Broad street last night. The rally was preceded by a street parade. Headed by the T. A. B. drum corps the marchers went the length of Broad street and returned to the hall. The Polish speakers rode in automobiles and at the mall met Chairman w. F. Mangan of the demo- cratic town committee, Senator George M. Landers Attorney P. F. McDonough and John J. Riley, chair man of the Fifth ward democratic committed
 The hall was filled to capacity when the gathering was called to order by Antony s. Andrulewicz, principal of the Polish parochial school. Princi- pal Andrulewicz outlined the issues of the present campaign and urged the Polish democrats to unite and form strong club. The other speak CTS were Roman T.. Modra, chairman of Polish-Am erican Democratic league with headquarters in New York, Dr. A. M. Nawench, secretary of the league; Charles w. Ramke and John Modra, all of New York.
 Although the addresses were en- tirely in Polish it was apparent that the words of the speakers made a great impression on the audience and the mention of Woodrow Wilson was the signal for frequent applause. Chairman Modra urged the Poles to unite and take part in politics, prom ising them if they followed his ad- vice party recognition and a share in the offices now held by the descen- dants of other nationalities. The re- publican party, he characterized as the party of capital and told his audi tors unless they were rich men their place is in the ranks of democracy. The speaker held the tense interest of his audience and was roundly ap- plauded on a number of occasions.
 pr. Nawench spoke on similar lines, telling of President Wilson's interest in the cause of the working man ar.1 the poor immigrant as exemplified in his action on the eight-hour law and the immigration bill, At the close of the rally a rising vote taken in ap- proval of President Wilson and prac- tically every man in the hall stood up. The meeting then closed with the singing of several stanzas of the Polish national air.

What To Do For
 Nervous Indigestion

when nerves go wrong they always seem to strike at your weakest spot. When this spot happens to be the stomach, nervous dyspepsia results, appetite vanishes and gives way to dull, dread, uneasiness and a Hollow, gnawing feeling that keeps up until every nerve in your body seems on edge. The food you force down won't digest properly, and you're all in down and out for one day at least so far as being really useful to your self or anyone else is concerned.
 It's the height of folly to force the digestion of food with some pepsin pill when the stomach nerves are in such shape. Nervous indigestion comes from the nerves alone. Get the nerves right and all distress will vanish.
 Thanks to a remarkable chemical discovery, 1t is now possible to feed the nerve cells with the exact stimu- Jus they require when overworked and unstrung and a preparation called Margo Nerve Tablets is producing re- markable results in the treatment of Nervous Dyspe psia, and other nerve disorders They make a remarkable change, in many instances, in ten min uteS by the watch, strengthening the stomach and charging the nerve cells with strength, boise, power, and tre- mendous reserve energy and giving nerves of steel, a clear head and brain, courage, power, quick wit, and real vital vim. Margo Nerve Tablets can not harm anyone. They contain no dope or dangerous habit-forming drugs Forty tablets come in a large package, and this is often enough to give lasting relief to even the most obstinate cases The Clark & Brain erd Drug Co.,, and other leading drug gists everywhere are selling them With "a positive guarantee of satisfact or money back.

HALD HAS BAD NAME.
Fifth Ward Residents to Petition
 Council to Stop Dancing at Place on

Owing to the tough reputation that Skritulsky's Broad street hall has gained for fights and free-for-alls, residents of the Fifth ward who ob- ject to the unseemly doings there are preparing a petition to be presented to the commoun council asking that public dances be stopped there. The hall is small and is in the rear of a large building facing Broad street. To reach it one must pass to the rear of the block and climb a flight of stairs. Thus shaded from public view it affords an opportunity for rough characters to start fights and often melee has reached the knockout stage before the police get wind of the trouble. Special policemen on duty there usually have their work cut out and are often forced to seek for assistance in restoring order among the carousing frequenters of the hall.
