Every mother realizes, after giving her children "California Syrup of Figs" that this is their ideal laxative, be- cause they love it's pleasant taste and it thoroughly cleanses the tender litl tie stomach. liver and bowels without griping.
 When cross, irritable. feverish or breath is bad, stomach sour look at the tongue, mother! If coated, give teaspoonful of this harmless fruit laxative" and in a few hours all the foul constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the bow els, and you have a well, playful child again.

both sides in the treatment of labor
 problems.
 The great necessity of the times is that the new spirit of sympathy, for bearance and understanding should be more and more diffused among all grades connected with our industries. It should actuate the government in it's approach to labor difficulties It should be equally the spirit in which employers listen to
 their employees. Effort must also be made to insure its permeating into every rank of labor itself
 What must be granted is labor's claim to some sort of share in the con trol of industry There are some ex- tremists that claim labor should have full control, and logically there may be much to be said for that position, put as things are, 1t would be disastrous to jump from one extreme to the other But it is altogether desirable and un- necessary that labor should have some part, that it should enter into co-part- nership with capital in some way or other.
 What are the grievances of British la Dor in these days? For one thing, high prices must be taken into account; the workingmans budget gives him and his wife much anxiety nowadays. A more serious trouble IS the long hours entailed by the demands of the war.
 But perhaps the most real cause or unrest is that there is too much cen tralization in the industrial world, alike among employers and employees De- partments. committees, conferences the system of representation, all prevent the opinions of the individuals from getting to the center. That is why we see the labor leaders so often disavowed by the men themselves. Something must be done to put those in control into touch with local feeling and local complaints.
 That is why I lay stress on the new spirit that I see beginning to prevail n our Industrial situation. That is why I have great hopes if only that spirit can be extended downward and upward, If only a closer rapport can pc brought about between the different grades of labor and the world of indus ny. The workman must feel that he has an interest. voice. a share in the of his particular industry. Then I do not think we need have any lear of violence and revolutionary propa- sanda."

HOW TO BE A RED CROSS NURSE
One of the Great Tasks Will Come When Manned Soldiers Return
to Be Rebuilt

Charity and kindness must run to
meet the tragedies of war. We can
not afford to wait until they are
upon us. l do not like to remind all
who come to see me asking for ma
tional service under the Red Cross
of this. There are thousands of sim
pie tasks, but to some this message
must go in time for preparation.
War does rot alone kill the young
men of the land 1t leaves great
numbers blind and broken. For these
there must be some salvage and eX-
pert guidance back into the semblaHce
of normal usefulness.
Few Of the mutilations of war are
without their counterparts in peace
blindness, crippled and amputated
limbs, deafness. The nation that serv-
ed the unfortunates of peace best will
have, the largest stok of science to
meet the wreckage of war. 1t is in
the blind asylums of peace time that
Winifred HOlts first do their work;
III LlG uOLleS IOE Ct1ppleu CulIuIeA
that the fine experiments with Grip
pied limbs are worked out. The work
that will begin six months from now
is q strangely beautiful combination
If nursing and teaching.
"The heaviest burden on the blind, j"
Helen Kellar said once. ''is not blind
ness but idleness, and they 2aE be
relieved of this great burden. Give the
blind man the kelp tina. shall secure
him comfort or partial independence" !"
The French soldiers blinded in bat
tie have found teachers who have Of
fered themselves in war service and
been willing to teach the fingers of

and professions. blind Weavers,
stenographers, potters have found a
chance to work at these new trades.

The order was simply that the

stated that he quit fighting because

New York, June 25.-A coat which
looks like a one-piece dress contains
TIC first prophecy of what fashions
for fall will be like.
This artistic garment is a smart
combination of blue and beige "La
Jerze." It buttons straight down the
front and is loosely girdled with a
huge cord.
The impression conveyed both by
its line and it's color is that of a
short, dark jacket worn above plain
light skirt.
