LOST YOUR pep?
WANT IT BACK
Your Liver, Kidneys and Blood-the
Tripod of Health-Need Attention
With DR.. Hitchcock's Liver, Kid

A Vegetable Compound. Will Not
Make You Sick. Eat Anything
You Like. Will Keep Your Tripod
of Health in Balance.

A lazy liver means a lazy man. 1t
also indicates that your kidneys and
blood are suffering in sympathy with
your liver. To simply purge the liver
isn't sufficient-you are only treat
ing third of your trouble-the only
way to get back that lost pep is to
treat the kidneys and blood also.
If you are constipated, suffer from
Indigestion, gas, sour stomach, bill
iousness and an occasional touch of
rheumatism, don't blame it all on
your liver and simply take laxative,
but try DIR. Hitchcock's Liver, Kid
ney and Blood Powders and not only
tone up the liver, but stimulate the
kidneys to healthy action, thus puri-
flying the blood.
25 cents will buy a large tin box
at your druggist. with a guarantee
of satisfactory results or your money
refunded. Take a teaspoonful to-
night and it will straighten you out
by morning. If your druggist can
not supply you, send his name and
address to the Hitchcock Medicine

that government operation might be
extended for a few months in order
to afford time for congress to legis-
late. By informing congress that the
roads will be returned Mr. Hines has
made necessary prompt action re-
garding the status of the lines and in
so doing has practically deferred the
discussion of the general railroad
question until later date. 1t would
now seem that congress would have
to lay aside the Cummins bill for the
time being and enact some temporary
legislation calculated to provide for
immediate necessities. Just how this
will affect the prices of railroad shares
remains to be seen, but it's first influ-
ence has been favorable rather than
otherwise. The railroad shares, as is
we'll known, have not participated in
the great advance of prices on the
exchange. Favorable legislation now
may open the way to a moderate ad-
vance in values; while unsatisfactory
legislation will hurt them although,
of course, not so seriously as it would
had they had an anticipatory rise of
prices. 1t will be some time, undoubt-
edly, before the railroad question as
whole is satisfactorily cleared up
and meanwhile more or less uncertain
ty must exist.
Prospects and Precautions.
While on the whole the weeks ex-
periences have tended decidedly to
reassure those who had been fearful
concerning the future of conditions,
they have by no means given ground
for over-optimism. They have, on
the other hand, emnhasized the neces-
sity of moderation and avoidance of
excess in speculative transactions and
have pointed clearly to the need of
Self-control and foresight in the deal
ings of the coming months. 1t may
be possible to get through the present |
critical situation without any serious
reaction, but this favorable outcome
will be attained onlv through the use
of conservation and good judgment |
and the curtailment Of unfounded and
over-hasty booming" of values in
all parts of the country and in all
classes of transactions.

been the money situation. During
the latter part of October call rates
were V y variable and funds were in
relatively short supply. There was
a general expectation of some action
on the part of the Federal Reserve
Board, which became actual on Mon
day, November 3, when a new dis
count rate policy by the Federal Re-
serve system. Coincident with the
announcement of the new rates was
statement made by the Federal Re-
serve Board with reference to the nee
essity for eliminating excessive spec
ulation. This statement did not re-
fer exclusively to securities specula-
tion but was entirely general and
was intended to correct the growing
tendency toward initiation of values
of all kinds both in lands, commodi-
ties and properties of every descrip-
ton. The first effect of the statement
probably was to aggravate call money
rates and they touched 20 per cent
on November although only for
short time. AS has been pointed out
in this circular on former occasions,
it is to be expected that call money
rates will be firm to high for some
time, and the action now announced
by the Federal Reserve system decid-
edly strengthens this prediction. New
factors may come in to change the
situation in some particulars, but the
general underlying outlook cannot be
mistaken, Undoubtedly, inadequate
holdings supported should be called
in.
Market Developments.
Market values have continued high
since last week, although shrinkage
occurred Immediately after the devel-
opment of the money situation, al
ready sketched, it was not serious. On
several days the operations in certain
groups of shares have been carried
so far as to create an obviously artif-
cial situation. Indeed, it can be said
of many groups of shares that their
quotations are now in excess of their
investment values. Their incomes
are not such as to pay return upon
their price and there are many rea-
sons for supposing their existing value
may not be generally advanced above
present figures. Further operations
in many stocks should therefore be
engaged in with caution as the gen.
eral tendency of money in the near
future may cause a decline in the
! quoted levels of many shares. Present
methods of taxation are tending
strongly to reductions in net earn
ings. On the other hand it should al
ways be borne in mind that the pres
ent tax conditions create an artificial
situation by rendering many holders
unwilling to sell and take profits, in
asmuch as by so doing they subject
themselves to excess profits taxes
which otherwise they would not have
to pay. The result is to create an
underlying body of shares which are
sluggish and remain solidly in the
hands of holders. This fact alone
tends strongly to prevent serious re-
actions that might otherwise occur.

Myths Hard To Down

Many details of the pig myths of Ire
land, Scotland and Wales reveal the
TACT that the ancient stories OF the
dragon have been preserved with re
markabie completeness. even though
they have been kept alive by verbal
currency for vast number OF years.
The efficacy OF ope-eyed man as
pig-slayer In Ireland Is a case In point.
In the earliest version OF the dragon
myth the monster Is killed by the Eye
or lte'-i. e.. the moon or sun. The
Greeks interpreted this literally and
created being with a destructive eve.
ana In Ireland this belief is still potent
to influence the conduct OF our con.
temporaries.
Ever since the time when the human
spirit first began to seek for an elixir
or life these myths have been circu.
lating among mankind. In the visions
OF the small children of Roscommon we
are catching glimpses OF the thoughts
OF people who lived long before the
Pyramids of Egypt were dreamed OF.
This helps us also to understand how
profoundly our actions and beliefs are
Influenced By the remote history OF
mankind.

MILK contains al the elements need

That Is why workers feel satisfied af-
ter drinking It. The shipbuilders Of
Seattle are using 10000 pint bottles
OF milk every lunch hour. and the only
reason they do not use 10000 is that
there is n limit to the supply. And as
for Ice cream cones, great piles of

The heaviest consumers of milk and
Ice cream in Seattle shipyards are
said to be the steel construction men

find milk an element that puts pep"
