SOFT COAL RESTRICTIONS TO BE
CANCELLED.

Price restrictions on bituminous
coal may be removed by the Fuel
Administration within two weeks.
Fuel Administrator Garfield said he
hoped to cancel the price regulations
not later than the middle of Deem
Der.
Present prices as fixed by the Fuel
Administration range from $2.35 to
$4.95 ton at the mines.
DR.. Garfield said it may be posi-
BILE to abandon the zone system of
distribution of bituminous coal by
the middle of December, but that ac-
ton to this end will be taken only
otter consultation with the railroad
administration.
The Fuel Administrator said he
could not take his hands off, the
anthracite situation until winter is
over. This was taken to mean that
the government will continue it's con-
troll over anthracite coal until the
end of the coal year, April 1, and
that the Fuel Administration will
continue function until that time.

TO AIIING WOMEN.
A Little Sound Advice viii Help
Many Sufferer In Paris.

No woman should consider herself
healthy and well if the kidneys are
weak. Poisons that pass off in the
secretions when the kidneys are well,
are retained in the body when the
kidneys are disordered. If the kid
neys and bladder become infiamed
and swollen worse troubles may
quickly follow. This is often the cause
of bearing-down pains, lameness,
backache, etc. Uric poisoning is also
frequent cause of headaches, dizzy
spells, languor, nervousness and
rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's
Kidney Pills, a remedy that has prov
en- effective in thousands of such
cases. Let a. Paris woman tell of her
experience.
Mrs A. L. Burley, 329 Eighth St.,
says: Il have used Doan's Kidney
Pills, getting them from the Ardery
Drug Co., and for the benefit 1 re-
ceived, certainly think they are a.
good, reliable remedy. Whenever my
kidneys have acted irregularly or my
back has been weak or lame, have
used a box or so of Doan's Kidney
Pills. They have always relieved me
of the complaint"

The Tiger of France.

In the gallery of the great whose
names have been written indelibly on
the page of history since the war be-
gan none exercises stronger power
over imagination and affection than
Georges Clemenceau. Last week the
Senate of France declared him to
have deserved we'll of his country; he
has indeed deserved. we'll of the
world.
When he came to the premiership
the resources, the courage, the will
of France were held in leash. De-
featists and traitors escaped the mer-
tied penalties of their treason. Toll
erance in politics that came near to
weakness handicapped the armies of
the republic. At a moment when dis
aster to France meant disaster to
civilization, French devotion, skill
and strength were Slapped by insidi-
Gus enemies beyond reach of the mil
itary and apparently immune from
attack by the civil authorities.
Then it was that the tiger of
France, old in years, old in wisdom,
old in experience, young in vigor Of
mind and body, was called to power.
ALI the ripe knowledge of full life
Of activity, all the determination of
a mind and body dedicated to a single
purpose were devoted to the supreme
task of the day. The follies and the
crimes that had hampered his pre-
decessors were assailed without fear:
vacillation and indecision vanished;
a challenge was thrown in the face
of traitor and doubter, and the real
France, the heroic France was allow
ed once more to pursue her destiny
unimpeded
This great work has been done
without mock heroics, without pos
ing, with a simplicity and directness
unaffected and genuine. The hu-
manity of the agent on whom Fate
put the burden and for whom Fate
opened the door of opportunity has
never been denied in word or deed
or gesture A fine contempt for con-
sistency in small things has thrown
into high relief the supreme con-
sistency in those things that mat
tered.
Truly, Georges Clemenceau has
deserved well Of his country.
