London Plans to Turn
Clock and Save Daylight

London, March IA. A committee
appointed to inquire into the social
and economic results of setting the
clock ahead one hour last summer
so as to save an hour of daylight has
decided to recommend it's continuance
and that people should begin to save
daylight this year on Easter Sunday,
April 8, and keep it up until Sunday,
September %.
The system will probably be re-
introduced by an order in council, as
it is not necessary to have a fresh act
of Parliament. Daylight saving went
into effect on May 21. last year. Tie
change caused so little inconvenience
and the return to winter time at the
end of summer was made so easy that
the experiment was pronounced sue

The contemplate plan Of malicious
SANDER to injure the sale of CAMEL ciga-
rettes has been exposed. Such an insult to
the intelligence of Mr.. Jobber, Mr. Dealer
and Mr.. Smoker has been rightfully resented
That great force of justice and fairness that
the average man always upholds still
prevails
Some say those responsible for this malicious slander
once forced their by biting and clawing the trade
Since having their teeth and claws pulled out and real
lzlng their inability to longer continue biting and
scratching, they put gum Shoes transformed them
selves from tyrants into skunks and fighting by

won the confidence of the public
Now that the object of these low-down tactics of

Here's Why They Are Doing 1t

The purity and delightfulness of CAMEL cigarettes
have made them the largest selling brand of cigarettes
in the world We sold over four billions CAMELS
IN the year 1910 than we sold in the 1915 Think
OF that wonderful ncrease-a gain of four billions in one
year! We have already sold over billion
CAMELS during 1917 than sold for the CORE
spending period of 1916 These record-breaking in
creases were made unasssted by coupons premiums
standing alone on purity and delghtfulness Our in
crease alone in the sale of CAMEL cigarettes is
than the total sales of other brand of cigarettes for
the period stated
What more positive testimonial of the purity and de-
nghtfulnesS OF CAMEL cigarettes could be furnished
than this tremendous and steady increase in their sales?
smokers will not permit themselves to be preudiced
against CAMEL cigarettes to give up brand that has
brought them SO much pleasure now that they know
that only envy and jealousy the foundation for the
malicious fasehoods put into circulation for the pur-
pose of njuring the sale of CAMEL cigarettes.
CAMEL cigarettes pure and they delightful.

Baron Erick Zwiedinek, charge de

himself and the embassy staff. Almost
at the same time dispatch was re.

Stovall, at Berne, saying the dual mon

tons with the United States in Vienna
yesterday.
1t is presumed this was done by
handing passports to American Charge

who had left Vienna on Saturday prob

action.

OF the United States in Austria.
All Austrian consular agents will de-
part from the United States with the
