Made Health Contagious" DR.. Victor
@. Heiser. Director Of Health for the
Philippine Islands:
In the Orient they have a new
and significant name for Manila,
the capital Of the Philippines.
They call il "the city without
odors." Only people accustomed
TO Asistic cities can Adequately
understand the tribute comprised
in these words The phrase 10
more than a tribute to Manila; il
Is tribute TO q new idea in ORR
entail civilization. Manila has
taught not only the Philippines,
but China, India and the entire
East, o truth which they had never
suspscted-thst is, that filth and
disease are not necessarily 3 part
of existence. For ages smallpox,
cholera, plague, beriberi, leprosy
and other diseases had seemed 70
be part Of natures regular order
IN the Philippines. In the last ten
years these scourges have dlssp-
peared or been controlled. Ma,
Mia is not only the cleaneSt ana
most beautiful city m the orient
but il is one Of the healthiest IN
the world. DR.. Heiser has accom-
plished this miracle miracle
which undoubtedly represents the
greatest sanitary achievement IN
history--even greater than that
performed at Panama.

Waukegan, June 3o.-Cross exam
ination Of Will Orpet finished yester-
day with the defense confident that
Orpet came through victorious and
the state positive that it showed up
many flaws in the latest story told

deny that any announcement was
made of a reported engagement of
Miss Youker to Orpet, which it is
thought will prevent the states in

GOVERNMENTS SUIT
 AGAINST R. R. OPENS
Reading Alleged to Have Monop-
 oly Of Anthracite Coal

Washington Oct. 1O.-Hoaring to- day of the federal governments anti trust suit against the Reading Rail- road interests for alleged monopoly of anthracite coal production and transportatiOn launched actual con- sideration by the Supreme Court Of more than 700 cases on its new term docket The first opinions on cases argued at the last term, are set for next Monday.
 The Reading case headed 8 list of specially important litigation ad- vanced for more prompt disposition. The alleged combination is said to have asseets of $500, 100000. Fol- lowing this case, a similar suit against the Lehigh Valley Railroad and con- stituent interests is to be heard. An array of counsel appeared be- fore the court today in the Read ing arguments Representing the government were Attorney General Gregory, Solicitor General Davis, As sistant Attorney General Todd, and Thurlow M. Gordon, special assistant Jackson E. Reynolds, Charles Heeb- ner, John J. Johnson, Charles B. Mill Ter and Robert w. DeForest defended the Reading interests
 The suit against the Reading com pany, a holding corporation the Phil delphia and Reading railroad, the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company, the Central railroad of New Jersey, the Lehigh and Wilkes barre Coal company and others, in cluding Geeorge F. Baker and other Reading directors, was begun at Philadelphia in 1913 in the federal district court. Since that date MT. Baer has died. The courts decision was favora ble in part only to the gov- ernment in deciding that the hold ing company's union of the Philadel- phia and Reading Coal and Iron com pany and the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal company, two of the largest an thracite producers, was a combination in restraint of trade. The lower court rejected the governments charges that the Reading company itself, with it's constituents was an unlawful com bination, or that it's carriage and pro- duction of coal constituted a violation of the commodities clause.'
 On appeal the government is seek ing separation of the Reading and Central New Jersey railroad and coal interests to divorce transportation and production, restore competition be- tween the Reading and Central New Jersey roads, and redistribution of stock of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal company.
 That the Reading interest control 194,0OO acres of coal land, with two billion available tons, or 63 per cent. of the known supply, is contended by the government. In replies filed, the defendants deny control of more than 20 per cent. and declare their profits have averaged only IS 1-2 cents a ton.

GREAT MEETING IN PROGRESS
Four Conversions and Four Additions
to Church Wednesday Night.

The Wednesday night service was
the most interesting at Carter Avenue
Methodist church since the pastor
Rev. W. T. Freeman began his ser
les of sermons. There were four con
versions on this night and there were
four additions to the church. Some
of the leading citizens of that pOf-
ton of the city who have never es.
tablished any church relations are
interested in the meeting and are
asking for prayers.
The services were rained out last
night but unless the rain interferes
again tonight the people who attend
will hear what will probably be the
best sermon of the entire series. Rev.
Mr. Freeman has spent great deal
of time on the thought that will be
conveyed to the hearers in the ser
mon tonight and ii will be worth
hearing. The church is thoroughly
awake TO the importance of the meet
ing and every member is at work.
