President May Soon
Fix Price Of Steel On
Committees Report

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE federal
trade commission has completed its in
vestigation into the cost of steel pro
duction in the United States. 1t will
submit its report to President Wilson
within very few days.
Confusion and delay in steel construe-
tion work planned by the government
will soon end. President Wilson is ex-
pected to fix price on all steel pro-
ducts Immediately, based on the find
ings of the commission.
While no information was ascertain
able at the commission on the cost fig
ures, there is reason to believe it will
range between $35 and $45 ton.
The commission IS report comes at a
time when both the navy department
and shipping board are about to launch
giant contracts. The president IS action
will end the incessant chickering's that
has been going on for some time.

beer strength must be reduced from
its present 3lA to per cent alcohol to

Such action will not mean a revenue
loss to the government but should it
be found necessary to reduce the alco-
holic contents further a loss of $170.-

had been requested by the federal

view of the fact that the Lever law

late coal prices, they felt constrained
to withdraw.

The Genial Dope.

You have heart all along that the
one weakness of the Giant array was
pitching. We observed from a we'll
known critic only IA day or 50 ago the
statement that the Giants, despite bad
pitching, would win."
Yet the records show that in the
way of allowing earned runs the four
leading pitchers OF the National league
all wear Giant harness. The only
four who have allowed less than two
earned runs to a combat, on an aver
age, are Schupp Benton, Sallee and
Anderson. And Tesreau and Perritt
are only a notch or so below.
With pitching of this type attached
to the general excellence of the rest of
the machine. it is almost a certainty
that by August the Giants will be so
far ahead in the pennant jubilee that
no rival club will have even Il hazy
look in.
We thought for a considerable Pc
Rod the Phillies would hang on most
of the way. only to be beaten in the
stretch.
But the job was apparently beyond
the Phillies best, for they. too. are
now rapidly drifting out of range.

But the records now show that the
Reds are outbatting any club in base

mid-July the Reds would be the
strongest attacking club in baseball he

How To Overcome
Foot Troubles

Unless a person has actually suf-
fered with tired, aching. burning feet
Or painful corns or calluses, they can
not appreciate the misery that such
Affections bring.
Reports now show that over 30 per
cent Of the American people suffer
from some form Of foot troubles and
modern footwear is said to be causing
an alarming increase in this percent
age. Therefore, the following should
prove of special interest to readers.
Recently in the treatment OF these
foot troubles by patients using Ice
Mint. these distinctive features were
noticeable. Tired. aching, burning and
swollen feet invariably become cool,
easy and comfortable after the first
application. while in the treatment of
corns and calluses. it was noticed that
after a few nights application, the
corn or callus had q tendency to loosen,
and in short time could easily be
lifted out with the fingers-root and
all-leaving the surrounding skin in
normal healthy condition.
This. together with tho fact that Ice
Mint costs little and Is SO easy and
pleasant to apply-and is absolutely
harmlesS--is no doubt responsible for
the high endorsement given it by Spe-
efficacious treatment for distressing
foot troubles.
When you stop to consider that the
simple. pleasant process of rubbing a
little Ice Mint on the foot at night
will shortly rid one Of every painful
corn or callus, and will keep the feet
cool. comfortable and rested even on
the hottest days. It is easy to under
stand tts great popularity and why 1t 10
