Wants People Everywhere to Know
What Ferraline Did for Him

YES certainly yes; l want the peo-

If I did not allow you to say in public
print what the Wonderful Compound Fer
raline did for me, because consider that
this Wonderful Tonic saved my life.
IT was first troubled with Chronic
Sore Leg, and anyone that has this knows
full we'll that it is considered incurable,
and all that any medicine or prescription
will do is to ease this pain for a while,
and then it is just as bad as ever. I had
this trouble for II years, and was getting
worse all the time. The specialists all
said that my leg would have to come off,
and that even then this trouble would
be likely to break out at another place.
II heard of the wonderful cures that
Ferraline was making. and decided to
give it chance, and, strange to say, that
from the first week my leg began to i'm
prove. I took the regular tonic, dose
three times day, and kept my leg moist
with this wonderful compound. by apply
ing bandage to the part affected. The
doses that I took kept me with fine ap-
petite and my leg began to heal from
the first weeks treatment and in three
weeks time 1t Vas all healed over and en-
tirely well. or course. my leg is natu-
rally tender at this place and occasionally

at once apply Ferraline and the sore
ness disappears.

and when this left me l had the worst
form of stomach trouble and indigestion.

tons aside and began Ferraline. From

raline saved my life, for it was a we'll
known fact in this section of the country
that | would never get we'll, and all my
friends and neighbors consider that Fer
raline saved my life.
II would not be without Ferraline if
had to pay so bottle for it, for 1t is one
of the best all round remedies that I

SHIPPING BILL SIGNED
BY PRESIDENT WILSON
Law to Be Put In Operation by
Board With Authority to Ex-
pend $50, ,ooo, 600.

President Wilson this afternoon sign
ed the latest proposition in government
ownership-the shipping bill-believed
to have far-reaching possibilities to-
ward building up the merchant ma
rine. Representative Alexander of
Missouri, who took a prominent part in
the enactment of the law, was present
The pen will go to Secretary McAdoo,
who has worked for number of years
for such legislation.
The law will be put into operation
by shipping board. consisting of five
members, drawing salaries Of $500
each. The board is authorized to
create. a corporation with a capital
stock of s5o.000.0oo. The government
will subscribe to the bulk of the capt.
tai stock, and the Treasury is author
lied to sell Panama bonds up to the
amount of $50,000,000 to raise the
money. The board has authority to
build, buy or lease ships which will
be used for commercial purposes in
times of peace or become naval auxili-
aries in time of war.
After five years the ships are to be
disposed of to private owners, and
until that time the board will create a
permanent system of marine insurance.

LAW Of REPR|SAL
RATED AS MENACE
Clause in Revenue Bill Regard
ed as Likely tor Give
Trouble.
AIMED AT GREAT BRITAIN
AND HER ALLIES IN WAR
Republicans Charge That Proposed
Legislation Is Designed to Ap-
pease German-Americans.

That the administration is Gre
ating serious menace to the
peace of the country and borrow
ing trouble through the CONNER
cial retaliation legislation in the
emergency revenue bill now in
conference in Congress, was the
view taken today by several far
seeing statesmen.
This legislation. directed against
Great Britain and her allies because OF
interference with American trade
may be a constant source of fric-
ton with the belligerent countries
Of Europe, and may become an issue
in the presidential campaign, according
to the same prophets.
The charge is made by republicans OF
prominence that the legislation Is pri-
marily intended to appease the Ger
man-American vote, and that 1t is a
most dangerous act because OF its pos
sibilities along political lines.
Prediction Of Pressure.
The prediction Is that President Will
sons pen, used in signing the bill. will
hardly become dry before certain e1e-
ments of the country. aided by others
that have been hurt by the British
methods, will begin to bring pressure
at the State Department and White
House to have the law become enec-
tive, and If they do not succeed at
la IN
that the law was intended as a sop.
with no purpose to have it enforced.
If they succeed in their efforts the
country will be brought near to break
with Great Britain and her allies.
From any viewpoint the law Is dan
gerous one, 1t is asserted. According
to these views, a commercial war be-
tween the United States and the allies.
even If 1t does not lead to more serious
things. may cause the loss OF billions
of dollars and last long after the war
closes in Europe.
It is stated that 45 per cent of the
exports of this country now are to
Great Britain. Once commercial retail
iation is started by the United States
there will be counter retaliation by the
allies and no one can see the end. 1nas-
much as the allies have a commercial
alliance. they are expected to stand to-
gether against this or any other coun-
try, and their alliance, 1t Is claimed. is
designed to last many years.
"Greatest Danger" Pointed Out.
The greatest danger in the law. how
ever, 1t was claimed today. is in the
friction 1t will create between this
country and the allies, regardless of its
application 1t will be recognized by
the allies. according to the authorities,
as a club against them. and the pres
ence Of that club will not be looked
upon in an amicable way.
Secretary Lansing has let 1t be known
that the law is not intended for use
until all diplomatic efforts have failed
to achieve results, and this lis under
stood to be a notice to certain elements
that they need not rush to demand the
enforcement of the law.
