PROFIT SHARING
FOR R. MEN
E. Clarke Fowler Tells What
1t Means to Employees;
Paying Plans

Opportunity for Pennsylvania rail-
road employees to buy stock and share
in profits has stirred up interest. Plans
were explained Tuesday night at a mu-
tual meeting by superintendent w. B.
McCaleb and Treasurer James K. Linn
of the Mutual Beneficial Association of
Pennsylvania Railroad Employees. II.
Clarke Fowler in yesterdays Philadel-
phia Press says:
THE recently announced plan of the
Mutual Beneficial Association of Penn
sylvania Railroad Employees whereby
employees may purchase stock of the
company on the instalment plan, may
be the beginning of an idea which will
germinate in the Pennsylvania railroad
itself establishing prodt-sharing
scheme. such as has been developed
with great success by the United States
Steel Corporation and other industrial
concerns, large and small.
at the annual meeting of the share
holders of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. next month. they are to be
asked to authorize an increase in in
debtedness of $1,000, 900. While it is
generally believed the company will
finance itself for the year through the
sale of general mortgage bonds. ru-
mors have been heard that a stock al
lotment may be included in the finance
ing. There is s10O,00O,00O of stock au-
thorized, which can he disposed of by
the board at its discretion.
InsGaIment Plan
"The proportionate amount of stock
which each employe would be allowed
to subscribe for would be dependent
apon his earnings, and the company
could follow the suit of the Steel Cor
poratlon and allow the men TO pay for
the stock In instalmenta covering n
period of, say two years. They would
be charged interest on tho unpaid ball
ances and credited with dividends as
paid The dividends would about offset
the interest charges An arrangement
could also be made with the consent Of
the men whereby payment could be

RESCUING GIRLS IN SHANGHAI
Gardner L. Harding in World Out
TNor

The little Door of Hope on the Foo
chow Road is only a receiving home
FOR girls who escape from a life of
shame. The real work of the institu-
tion is done at the Industrial Home,
wide randa-surrounded frame
building in q suburb just outside of
shanghai. The Mixed Court, or Joint
chinese and foreign board of magis-
trates, has officially recognized the
enterprise with 4 number of generous
grants, and since 1906 has invested
$1,000 year on it's obvious influence
Tor permanent social betterment.
The number of girls in the home
fluctuates from 1926 to 200, small
cuptul from Shanghais well Of 5000
professional women of the streets.
1t IS true (to which should be added
1000 or 5000 more voluntary, or oc-
caslonal, night-women) but more
slghihcaht when you remember that,
IN all, well over Il thousand girls can
now be counted as satisfactorily placed
IN respectable life.
The soundness of the Door of Hone.
next to the truly Christian consecra :
ton of its effort is its most note
worthy characteristic 1t is based on
broad and catholic foundation
among the forces for civic decency in
Shanghai. Miss Cornelia Bonnell
first started it in 1901, and its active
management is exclusively mission
ary. But Chinese assistance has been
absolutely Indispensable.
The receiving home in Foochow
Road was Chinese idea and was
put through by Chinese donations.
Chinese cooperation finally drove
out the deprayed custom of leading
nght-women through the streets ON
mems backs, and put the ban on the
employment of the hordes of children
that in the old days made the traffic
a thousand times more hideous still,
while Chinese-enforced laws protect
these reforms with the sanction of
educated official opinion.

Twin Beds and Sisters
Get Husband in Court

Los Angeles. Cal, Feb. 12.-Twin
beds and twin girls in a matrimonial
miXmup that makes the latest farce
comedy look dead.
George married Ruth Graham,
who twin sister, Ruby, is the image
of Georges bride. There are twin
beds at the Durham home and one
night Ruby came to visit Ruth.
George entered, minus q light and
kissed some one. Ruby says she was
the one kissed and she caused
Georges arrest.
George denies it and is backed by
his wife, Ruth, who is sure she was
kissed. If the court believes Ruby's
story and fines George he swears
he'll go on the hunt for the man
who kissed Ruth.

of the monthly payments from their
wages.
While this would to all general re-
spects be a decrease in the wages of
the workers, it would pean saving
to that extent, and thrifty workers
would find that they could get along
with the smaller pay envelope. Then
at the end of the two-year period the
company would turn over to them the
stock, fully paid. and they would have

The last annual report showed that the recoveries from 1.097,29 tons of orc from the cOmpany's Phoenix mines averaged 14.6 pounds of copper and S.779 in gold and silver per ton, the quantities of the several metals recovered hay ing been 15,992,476 pounds of copper, 204,779 fine ounces of silver, and 36, S01 fine ounces of gold.

IF KIDNEYS AND
 BLADDER BOTHER
Take a glass of Salts to flush out your kidneys and neu-
 tralize irritating acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and infiame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you ing the night. The sufferer is in con stant dread, the water passes some times with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is diff culty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass Of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is source of irritation tn the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. lad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble

 I am now being supported by many of my old associates throughout the country, but formerly my greatest support came from Europe and I have recently had every evidence that the support will all come back to me as soon as the war is over and it is pos, sible for European capital to make in vestments in this country"
 Career of Success
 The mining career of Samuel New. house began in large sense when he rounded out what was then the Bos ton Consolidated property in Bingham and is now the core of the Utah cop- per companys' vast estate NIT. New house saw at once the commercial possibilities that reposed in the noun tains of copper porhyries on this prop erty and ii was this discovery that won the powerful following which made him for many years the chief figure in Utah. His claim for the cop per porhyries was hotly opposed by the mining and engineering journal and by Victor Clement and eminent geologists and engineers in particular. A controversy ragged for some time. the Salt Lake Tribune regularly pub fishing Mir. Newhouse's side of the controversy.
 When the Boston Consolidated was afterwards sold and became the nu- cleus of the Utah Copper company. MT. Newb1use's theory was strikingly demonstrated and the basis of vast new mining activity was laid Later NIT. NewhOuse sold the Highland Boy mine at Bingham. Utah. for .6.2OO.- 900.

JONES IS CRITICISED

PROENIX, Jan. 27.-Attorney Cen eral Wiley E. Jones is coming under the condemnation of many of the cit izens of Tucson on account of a wire he is said to have sent to Sheriff Miles of Pima county, to release on parole certain bootleggers serving terms in the county jail at Tucson.
 It is alleged that Jones usurped the perofative of the governor in doing this, and the claim is also made that Sheriff Forbes who preceded Miles at Tucson released several other prison CTS on similar order. Jones' con- tention is that the board of paroles recommended the action and that in the absence of a de jure governor, no one unless it is the board of paroles can look after the interests of the par. ole board.

 It has been known for some time that the property of the Mile Wide Copper company was the site of one Of Pima county's future mines and ev- cry effort has been made to get. larger machinery, but the usual delays have occurred, as quick delivery on machin cry is almost impossible.
 Contract has been let to Albert Steinfeld & Company for the pur- chase and installation of a large com pressor plant; the foundations are now in and the plant should be com pleted within the next two weeks.
