the soda you drank in 1876" So they
walked up Broadway TO a drug store
and gave their order. The manager paid
the check. The foreign gentleman Vas

Now. the sequel: That foreign gentle
man evidently thought II unusual for a
New York hotel manager to show him

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL

Many Brinkley people take their lives ill their hands by neglecting the kidneys when they know these organs need help. Weak kidneys are repon- sible for 9 vast amount of sui fering and i'll health, but there lis no need to suffer nor to re- main in danger. Use Deans s Kidney Pills-a remedy that has helped thousands of kidney suf- ferers. <
 The following statement leaves no ground for doubt.
 Mrs. w. H. Witherspoon, North & Wall Sts., Clarendon, Ark. i, says: Il don't hesitate to make known the fact that I have used Doan's Kidney Pills and have been greatly behefited. Others of my family have found this mndicine just as reliable as l have. Doan's Kidney Pills never fail to strengthen weak backs and put the kidneys in a normal condition"
 
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Witherspon had. Foster-M Milbure Co.. Props, Buf- falo, N. Y.

O'HARA DEMANDS MINIMUM
WAGE FOR WOMEN

WAGE FOR WOMEN
When girl works for less than a
living she must somehow or other
make up the difference between what
she gets and what she must have.
When she lives at home her parents
can make up the difference by stint
ing themselves. But when she lives
alone, when she has no relatives to
help her, then she must starve and
freeze or buy food and clothing at
the cost of a downward step.
Lieut.-Gov. Barratt O'Hara voiced
this statement at a meeting of the
Junior Cheer and Comfort league at
the Blackstone hotel
after three years of investigation
l tell you that poverty and the under
payment of women causes prostitu-
ton. Maybe you think this theory.
Maybe it is.
But listen to Judge Uhlir, who pre-
sides over morals court, to which
come the unfortunate women. He
knows better than any other person
in Chicago why they come there. And
Judge Uhlir says it is poverty and
low wages. So you have the theory
and the fact. You can't duck. What
are you going to do about it?
Begin organizing now to force
a minimum wage law next January.
1T is disgrace to Illinois that girls
have to work for less than living.
The Illinois senate vice committee
forced eight other states to enact
minimum wage laws. 1t has failed in
its own state because men who pile
up millions of profits through the I'M
derpayment of women workers are
better organized than the girls.
mine persons out of every ten in
Illinois are with the girls in their
fight for living. But, unless they
begin organizing now, the next meet
ing of the general assembly will do
as little for relief of the girls as did
