Grading streets and giving them marks as is done with pupils in the public schools is the plan used in the city's petition to force the Pittsburgh Railways company to spend S626,447 in track and equipment improvements. Some of the company's tracks are graded as low as 30 per cent this rep resenting the worst stretches of road. The receivers of the company insist that further increases in fare will be necessitated if they are forced to im- prove theft equipment.

TARRED ROADS AFFECT TREES
Investigation Has Shown ConclusiveIy Their Disastrous Results on
 Neiehboring Vegetation.

The injurious effects of tarred roads upon neighboring vegetation have been described in numerous articles ema. hating from both American and Euro pean sources. One of the latest inves- tigations of this subject has been made at Milan by U. Brizi. The plants most susceptible to damage of this sort, says Signor Brizi, are species of horse chestnut (AescruluS Hippocastanum and Aecarnea), the leaves of which, at the beginning of summer, turn rusty at the edge and curl up slightly, while their surface is covered with numer- ous small spots, which, at first, are yellow and look as if covered with q thin layer of shining varnish The leaf then curls up more and more, dries, and is easily blown away. Other plants very sensitive to the effects of tar are Forsythia viridissima, Fagus sylvatica, Lagerstraemia indica, Mag nolia grandiflora, Deutzia and Cornus. The damage is caused almost entirely by the very fine dust raised by the passage of motorcars. This dust set ties slowly and is most abundant on low plants and the lower branches of trees. Once deposited, the small par ticles of tar give off injurious vapors when strongly heated by the sun. Plant and parts of plants not directly reach ed by the sun never show this dam- age, while plants exposed to the sun are injured in proportion to the in- tensity and duration of sunshine. The best remedy is to keep down the dust by the regular and abundant watering of the roads.-Scientifie American.

 There can be no further excuse for you to allow acid-stomach to wreck your health-pile up misery upon mis- cry until you get to the point where you feel down and out and that life has lost all its joys. Remember, just as acid-meuth ruins teeth, so acid stomach ruins health.
 Take EATONIC. It's good, just like a bit of candy and makes the stomach feel fine. You can then eat the things you like and, what is more, every mouthful you cut will count in creating power and energy. You'll feel so much better-have punch and pep-the pow CT and will to do things and get re- suits, and your stomach misery will be gone.
 Take our advice. Get a big box of EATONIC from your druggist today. It costs so little. If 1t fails to remove your stomach distress, he will refund your money. That is guaranteed; you are to be satisfied or money refunded.

MARSHALL DEFENDS
PEACE COVENANT
Vice President Says Oppo-
sition IL Political.

PHILADELPHIA, May 3. - Vice-Presi-
dent Marshall In an address before the
American Academy OF Political and So
cial Science here tonight In support Of
the League of Nations declared the cove
nant did not infringe upon the rights Of
the United States Congress and ex-
pressed the opinion that much of the
opposition to the plan results more from
political than patriotic reasons.
Agitation over the Monroe Doctrine
was characterized by Mr.. Marshall as a
tempest in a teapot"
There were two conclusions drawn
from the Monroe Doctrine" the Vice
President said zone Of which was good
for the American and the other OF which
was bad. The conclusion that IL was
the doctrine of self-defence against the
aggressions of European nations on the
western shore was good, but the doc
trine comforting upon us lordship or
guardianship of our sister republics to
the south was distinctly bad. It wound
ed the pride of these republics and In
stead OF drawing them toward America
II furnished reason for them to listen to
the insidious wiles of European d.
plomacy When all men pledge their
honor to maintaining the integrity Of
the American republics. It Is hardly
needful for the United States to assume
for itself the discharge Of the duty"
Mr. Marshall said he hoped the Ameri-
can people always would be trained to
the idea OF justice and not force as the
ruling power Of the world.
