If you for months had to have someone with you, said the Lax-a- Tone man and feared that every step you took you would fall, would you be thankful for remedy that would enable you to go around without fear ing those attacks? In fact, have no more of them Well that is what Lax-a-Tone did for Mrs. B. Alice Blk by of Walnut street, Milford. Here is her testimony which she sent the Lax-a-Tone man voluntarily:
 q came into Hartigan's drug store, S1 Fairfield avenue, three weeks ago last Saturday and bought some Lax-a- Tone. have nof finished it as yet, but must say feel fine and do not have those awful dizzy spells. I was afraid to go out without my niece and she was always with me. I was afraid to walk, it seemed as if I was walking on air. It was simply awful. Since using Lax-a-Tone I have no more dizzy spells and it is wonderful. 1 wish it had been introduced in Bridge port sooner as it made a new per- son out of me and I wish to say from the bottom of my heart, God Bless this remedy; Lax-a-Tone, for the good it will do to the many people"

capital which impressed me, but the wholesale slaughter" he said: France has lost one entire generation. Ger many has wasted the youth of the en- tire nation to the very uttermost limit. The question will arise after the var as to what to do for labor Will those people who are now enduring the hor- TOTS of war be willing to go back to their home to live, there to bear the debt of this war? Or will they try to seek relief by immigration. I be- lieve that after the war we shall see great flood of immigration to this country, unless the Governments place heavy legal restrictions against leav- ing the country. Love of country will be just as strong, but can the peo- pie support the burdens? I think that the Governments will be compelled to use strong measures to keep the working classes at home.
 After the war I expect a period of active money. That is to say, money will be at a premium in Europe for the purpose of rehabilitating industry. For a while interest rates there will be higher than those in America, but I believe Europe anticipates money from this country. America must lend. No matter what after the war may bring, the dollar credit is here to stay"

ACTION WAS EXPECTED.

New York, July 19-With very few exceptions, all of the American busi- ness firms and individuals placed by the British government on the black list under the trading with the enemy act, have their quarters in New York city. / Most of these merchants ex- pressed no surprise today over the action of Great Britain. J. A. Kahl, an exporter and importer, said:
 "This blacklist has been in the hands of bankers all over the world at least a year, to my personal knowledge. I have known for more than a year that I, for one,' have been blatklisted. I am and have been for 20 years an American citi- zen. Not only has my business, which was mainly with China, Japan and Far Eastern countries, been broken off completely by seizure of goods, but I have been unable to buy bills of exchange or in any way settle my affairs. Others have been unable to get bills of exchange through to me-"
 Alfred Richter, trader with Chi nese and Japanese merchants, made a similar complaint.

WILSON URGES PASSING CHILD
 LABOR MEASURE
Action Should Be Taken at PreSentLSeSSiOn Declares
 Executive.

Washington, July 19-President Will son gave Senate leaders a surprise call yesterday. Without any notice he appeared at the Capitol and went to the Presidents room of the Senate, ac- companied by two Secret Service men.
 The President at once sent for Sen ator Kern Democratic leader of the Senate, and told him that he desired to urge on the members of the Dem ocratic Steering Committed the inn portance of passing the Child Labor Bill at this session, although he had been told that an effort to force its passage might mean a serious party revolt.
 Senators Martin, Williams, Smith of Georgia, Simmons, Owen, Hughes, James and others talked with the President and they promised to take up the bill if they found time. They explained to him that the appropri- ations bills, the Shipping Bill, the Revenue Bill have the right of way in the order named, and that an agree ment to adjourn not later than Aug. 20 has been reached.
 Opposition by Southern Senators forced the House bill which would prevent shipment in interstate com merce of goods manufactured wholly or in part by children out of the im- perative program, drawn up by the Democratic caucus last Saturday. It was left in a secondary position, to be considered only if time remained after other measures regarded as more urgent had been disposed of.
 After the Presidents visit Senator Kern said so far as he knew there would be no delay in the contemplat- ed adjournment of Congress. Some Senators who favor early action on the bill said they believed there should be another caucus
 Others betrayed some resentment at the Presidents request, pointing out that the Senate already had com promised with the. White House on the legislative program, the caucus last week agreeing to, delay action on the Immigration bill. which MT. Will son opposes. but which has the sup port of a majority. of the Democratic Senators.
 M. Wilson is said to have called attention yesterday to the fact that the Democratic, Republican and Pro- gressive party platforms all contained blanks favoring immediate enactment of child labor legislation. His insist ence is said to have been based not only on the merits of the bill but also

 FOR TRIP ONCE WEEKLY

To meet the wishes of the public in reaching New England points from Trenton, Philadelphia, Wilmington. Baltimore, Washington and the south and west. arrangements have just been completed for resuming the op- efation, temporarily, of the Federal Express once a week in each direc- tion. These arrangements have been effected between the Pennsylvania Railroad, the Eehigh and Hudson River Railway, and the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, over whose lines the Federal Express will run.
 Operation of this train will permit of travel to and from the New Eng land summer resorts, without the ne- cessity of passing through New York city during the alarm over the exis- tence there of infantile paralysis
 The Federal Express will be oper- ated north from Washington on Fri day evening of each week, and the return trip from Boston will start each Sunday evening. The service will begin next Friday, July 21st, and wifi continue until further notice
 Northward, the Federal Express will leave Washington each Friday at 5:35 p. m., Baltimore at 6:39 p. m., Wilmington at SOP p. ma, Philadel- phia at 8s55 D. m., and Trenton at SAP p. m., arriving at Boston. at 10:05 o'clock the following morning. South ward, the train will leave Boston at 5:34 p. m. each Sunday, arriving at Trenton at 5:28 the next morning. Philadelphia at SPA a: m., Whining ton at 7:13 a. m., Baltimore at 8:41 a. m. and Washington at 9:38 a. m.
 The Federal Express was discon- tinued on January 8 of this year, ow- ing to the many difficulties that had been encountered in it's operation. However, notwithstanding these diffi- culties the railroads over whose lines the train will be operated are willing to restore it. for the time being, to meet the desires of the public.

in his belief that its passage is a matter of political eXpediency, in view of the declaration of the Demo- cratic platform.
 Much pressure is being brought on the Presient by labor union leaders, humanftarians and-others, to see that the bill is put through now.
 Senator Gallinger said on the floor of the Senate recently that the mil nority members of the Senate would support the Child Labor bill if they were permitted to do so by the ma jority. It was that statement, it is said, that aroused the President and other Democrats to the importance of passing the bill at this time. If it comes to a vote the Senate will pass it, it is believed

King Albert's Gratitude.

Just how great a debt King Albert feels that his nation owes to America is shown by the fact that, at a time when he had given up seeing people, he granted me a private audience near the front, so that he might express his appreciation. There is no doubt that the Belgian people feel that Ameri- cans have saved their lives, which is another reason why American people should not cease their generous gifts. The need cannot be overestimated, and is now just as great as it ever war"
