YOU'VE HAD
1T HAPPEN

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. ia
gallant but awkward young man,
making his way thru crowded
street car, his arms laden with
parcels, accidentally jostled a
woman. He stopped to beg her
pardon.
As he bowed a parcel fell from
his arms and dropped on the
woman's foot. He stopped to
pick up the package and the rim
of his hat bumped her nose. He
took off his hat and tried again.
This time his head hit the broad
brim of the woman's hat, fitting
1t south-by-southeast. She stepped
backward, lost her balance and
fell into the lap of an elderly man
The gallant but awkward young

CLERKS RECOVERY
ASTONISHES TACOMA

Tacoma people will marvel at
this clerks recovery. His stom-
ach was so-bad he could eat very
little. Everything fermented and
soured. Had stomach cough.
Doctor advised buckthorn bark,
glycerine, ETC., as mixed in Adler
i-ka. ONE SPOONFUL helped
him INSTANTLY. Because Adler
i-ka empties BOTH large and

their line and what they want.
The number of firms to be IL
censed and all such matters are al
the discretion of the Trade Com
mission, and enc of the first re-
quirements of licensee is that he
must be able to manufacture the
article in question and have finan-
cial and material equipment.
AS the licenses are to be issued
in the public interest, few exclu-
sive licenses will be granted; but
the number will be limited, to pre-
vent wasteful competition and du-
plication Of effort in wartime.
The licenses are issued for the
life OF the patent, and II peace
came tomorrow the licensees
would lost nothing.
Each licensee must pay to the
Trade Commission royalty,
which will be adjusted to each
case, but which will amount
roughly to 8 per cent of the value
of the use Of the patent. These
funds will be kept by the commits
sion to reimburse the Dormant pat
en.ees after the war. II the Ger
mans are dissatisfied, they have a
right, after the war, to bring suit
in the federal courts for more
money, and II they can prove
higher values for the use of their
patents, the licensees will have to
reimburse them.
One of the most important Ger
man patented drugs, salvarsan,
used for the cure Of syphilis, will

the Trade Commission.
The patent on aspirin has ex-
pired. and is now free to any

Little Rock and
Louisiana Highway.

There seems to be misunderstand-
ing as to the purpose of the bill to es-
tablish above highway.
1t is purposed to build permanent
highway from Grady to the Louisiana
line, following the railroad as far as
possible The work of construction is
to be done under the direction of the
highway department and to get the aid
of the state and federal funds to the
fullest extent. The cost will be less
than if the work was done locally by
piece meal Under the proposed bill
the road will be built during the present
year. otherwise it will be years before
the whole road is completed, If ever.
If the people want this highway, get
busy and help me push it through. II
they do not want it. and wish to wait
for Niece meal construction, then am
ready to drop the project.

The above was received too late for

bill referred to by Mr.. Thane has been
introduced in the House of Representa-

from the Bill entirely. this action being
taken in response to requests from the
County Judge. the Dermott Board OF
Trade and many other representatives
from Chxot County, all of whom
thought it.much better to continue as
planned with the highway district

ASKS PRESIDENTS AID
IN CLERKS PAY FIGHT
Head of Federal Employees Unon BE.
quests That Big Petition Be For
warded to Congress.

Another appeal has been made to
President Wilson by the Federal En-
pIoyes' Union TO make an effort to Sc
cure some increase in salary for gov
ernment employees. The appeal was
sent last night by President II. NJ. Nc
Larin of the Federal Employees Union.
and contained a specific request that
President Wilson send the petition of
the government employees handed to
him some weeks ago to Congress, ac-
companied by strong recommendations
that some provision be made for the
employees.
Mr.. McLarin pointed out. however.
that neither the proposed House or
Senate increases are adequate in COM
pariSon with the increases that have
been granted by private employers or
with the increased prices the employees
are forced to pay for the necessities of
life. He says further:
We realize the diverse and heavy re-
sponsibilitieS under which you labor.
perhaps, more than do any other class
of people in the country, as our duties
keep US in close touch with various
phases of them. We note from the
newspapers that YOU have been insist
ent on providing increased appropria-
tIon for the federal trade commission.
to make an investigation for the causes
of the increased prices of foodStuffS.
We believe that the pay of the en-
ployes ia the executive departments
and field service of the United States is
a matter so Intimately connected with
YOU as the head of the government
service and of such paramount impor-
tance to the employees and the con-
tinued faithful service of these en-
ployes as to warrant some share of your
attention.
I'VE appeal to you TO send our peti-
tion to Congress with strong recon-
mendations that, at least, the increases
provided by the House be granted.
In view of our apparent inability at
This time to secure increases greater
than those provided by the House be-
cause of the impending deficit in the
Treasury during the next fiscal year,
We had about made up our minds to ac-
cept with good grace the 5 and 10 per
cent increases. Now. however, there
seems to be greater danger that we will
not get even the and 10 per cent in
creases."

Get at the Real Cause-Take Dr..
Edwards Olive Tablets.

That's what thousands Of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead of

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse
the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per-
forming their natural functions, away
goes indigestion and stomach troubles.
II you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated. appetite poor,

four vessels did not sink, but their
location has not been ascertained with

was towed into harbor by British
