FOREIGN POWERS WATCHING AM
ER1CAN LOAN TO CHINA "a"
CLOSELY

PEKING, Jan. 9.-Foreign powers
interested in China and her riches to-
day are turning watchful eyes toward
America and her recent tendency to
take hand in the financing Of the &C.
lestial Republic. This has just been
illustrated by the action of the Four
Power-Loan Group-Germany is no Ion
ger considered a member-in address
ing an inquiry to the Chinese Depart
ment of Finance concerning the new
American loan, concluded with the Con-
tinental Commercial Bank Of Chicago.
From information now available it
appears that the advance Of 5000, 1000
already announced is a part of loan
Of $3O,0OO,0O0, from which the $5,O0O,-
900 will be deducted if the larger loan
is concluded. Otherwise the $5,000,-
900 loan is to be repaid in three years.
The loan will bear per cent inter
est, will be issued at 971a and will be
secured by wine and tobacco taxes. It
has already passed the House of Repre-
sentatives here.

ABOUT CONSTIPATION

Certain articles of diet tend to check
movements Of the bowels. The most
common Of these are cheese, tea and
boiled milk. On the other hand raw
fruits, especially apples and bananas,
also graham bread and whole wheat
bread promote movement of the bow
els. When the bowels are badly con-
stipated, however, the sure way is to
take one or two Of Chamberlain 8 Tab
lets Immediately after supper.

ARGENTINE PRESIDENT SAYS HE
WILL BREAK THE LAW IF
NECESSARY
(By United Press

BUENNOS AIRES, Jan. Is. (By
MaiD-Orthodox people Of Argentine
are terribly shocked at threat attri-
buted to DIR. Irigoyen, the new presi-
dent, to break the law under certain
circumstances.
The doctor came into Office with ma
mcrous reform schemes in mind Since
then nearly as often as he has REFER
ed to one of these projects, some one Of
his advisors has pointed out to him that
he can do nothing with the plan be-
cause it runs counter to existing legis-
1ation. Finally he is quoted as having
said impressively:
ANY time I find I can t. do some
thing which ought to be done in the
public interest without breaking the
law, III break the law -.
The man who effervesces at night
leaves a clear field for the sedhtz pow

a HINT TO THE AGED

If people past sixty years Of age
could be persuaded to 60 to bed as soon
as they take cold and remain in bed
for one or two days, they would recov-
er much more quickly especially if they
take Chamberlain g Cough Remedy.
There would also be less danger Of the
cold being followed by any of the more
serious diseases.
