N OF HER UNWR|TTEN
LAW OF |. v. v EXPOSED
ORGANIZERS WHEN ARREST
ED ALWAYS WERE TO RE-
PUDIATE THE ORDER.

Chicago, June II. -- Another o.
the unwritten laws of the !. W. w.
one which provides that an organ
izer arrested on serious charges
should disclaim connection with the
organization, was brought to light
today in correspondence between
David Ingar and William d. Hay
wood, read at the trial OF III
member of the organization for vio-
lation OF the espionage act.
This correspondence reveals the
way of Haywood, secretary-treas-
urer, with the members, the pro
cedure being to ignore all illegal
suggestions and offer only con-
structive, carefully worded advice
These letters of the big chief,
defense counsel declare, will be an
important factor in the attempt &c
show that Haywood. and his lieu
tenants did not direct a nation wide
conspiracy to upset Americas war
program.
Tales of Violence.
Ingar's correspondence with
Haywood, spanninga two-year pc
Rod, related tales of disorders and
violence in Ohio and Pennsylvania
and told of Ingar's arrest in
Youngstown, Ohio, on a charge OF
melting riots and starting fires i'm
mediate after the town of East
Youngstown was partly wiped out
by fire. This fire occurred early in
1915 during a strike of steel work
ers which lngar took credit for or
ganizing.
Ingar's daring letters to Hay
wood while he was being held in
Jail pending grand jury action
brought forth such replies as ut is

respondence, went to Pennsylvania

Washington, June l.-American
troops have become vital factor
in the great battle in France and
may hold the balance between de-
feat and victory, General Bridges,
head of a special British military
mission to the United States, said
here tonight in discussing the re-
newal OF the German drive.
The objectives now before the
Germans, the general said, appear
to be threefold-the capture of
Paris, the division of the main al
he'd armies Dy an advance through
Amieis, and the capture of the
channel ports.
Drive on Paris.
While now on narrow and dan
gerous salient, said the general, the
Germans will be in a favorable po-
sition for advance on Paris should
they be successful in pushing out
the west leg OF the salient and join
ing it up with the Amiens salient.
That. he said, appeared to be their
intention. as they could be expect
ed to call halt at the Marne.
In concealing their preparations
so as TO make a surprise attack,
General Bridges said the Germans
were aided probably by four fac

Bridges, or else to see German di-

The battle, he added, is likely to
continue for weeks and will become
a long drawn-out struggle OF man
power, wit the first duty OF the
allies to husband their resources by
giving ground for men where pos
sible.
In making his statement General
Bridges was emphatic in saying that

EYE MUSCLES.

The muscles of the eyes are not all
the same proportion of strength hence
to exercise them all alike would mean
that you would overdo it with some
which would, unless they happened
to be the right ones, would cause
more trouble than before.
To attempt to exercise your eyes
not knowing what muscles are weak
would be very unsatisfactory. There
must be some method to determine the
weak muscles and the proper proceed
lure to strengthen them can not be ac-
com plished without some way OF de-
|termining the relative gain in strength
and knowledge of the right proportion
of strength to develop them to.
Many times weak muscle balance
can be traced back to some sickness,
or measles, scarlet fever, adnoids, ca
tarrh, goitre, spinal curvature, or
spinal injury usually in the neck.
Having given these exercises for
muscular weakness of the eyes several
years and getting results that warrant
their consideration in the relief OF eye
strain and cross eyes, and carefully
noting the proper technic to make the
most satisfactory, sometimes excep-
tional and almost wonderful results
have been accomplished for some suf-
ferers. To fail to recognize these ex-
ercises as necessary has caused many
dissatisfied wearers of glasses and no
one to blame but themselves.
If you have been suffering from eye
strain or cannot wear your glasses,
this may be the reason.

CHRONIC CONSTIPATION.

Perhaps you have never thought OF
it, but this disorder is due to lack OF
moisture in the residual matter OF the
food If you will drink an abundance
of water, eat raw fruits and take lots
of outdoor exercise, you may be able
eventually to overcome it entirely. In
the meantime use the most mild and
gentle laxatives. : Strong and harsh
cathartics take too much water out
of the system and make bad matter
worse. Chamberlain's Tablets are
easy and pleasant to take, and most
agree able in effect. Give them trial.

BOYS LETTERS TO MOTHER
Missives Written From Trench or En-.
campment Have Much More Than
Ordinary Meaning.

The soldier boy should understand
that he must do a good deal of the
letter-writing himself. He should not
depend upon the mother or sister to do
1t all. A letter from home is a grand
influence but letter home makes the
writer truer, stronger and nObler. Re-
member every word the boy writes has
q mission in it, and that mission en-
braces himself as well as the loved
ones at home. A boy can make for
himself a fine character by simply
writing to his mother. He cannot hold
converse with her even by mail with
out becoming a better boy. He IS not
in near as much danger from army
fOllieS and sins after writing a letter
to his mother. Any boy who writes
frequently to his home will make bet
ter soldier and come out of the war q
truer man. The army is school and
letter writing is recitation that shows
n boys Intellectual and spiritual prog
reSs, and it will do what a recitation is
designed to do-stir him to do his best.
a letter to mother is a loving thought
of her and these loving thoughts make
the boy brave, truer SOldier.-OhiO
