Der of smaller plants.
These were at Donora, Pa, where
the rod, blooming and zinc mills
of the American Steel and Wire

after being idle since the strike be-
gan, and at Monessen, Pa, where
the Pittsburgh Steel company, the
Pittsburgh Steel Products company,
the Page Steel and Wire company
and the Monessen Foundry COM
pany also PCT to work men who ap-
piled for their old jobs.
The Wierton Iron and Steel
company also started up part of its

any serious attempt was made to
cause stampede of workers back
to the mills, it was a failure. 1t
was asserted by union leaders that
none of the plants reported to have
started up have many men at work,
and they were not turning out any
product.
Carnegie Mills Quiet.
There were no reports of any at
tempt on the part Of the Carnegie
Steel company, the largest sub
sidiary of the United States Steel
corporation, to start up idle plants.
Little change was noted in the
works of that company in the Pitts

one of the plants of the Midvale
Steel and Ordnance company is
situated, that organizers there had
advised men to return to work, and
that the strike in Coatsville is
ended.
At Homestead union organizers

leaving the plant.

were used as a ruse for a clever
shoplifting game in Omaha three

according to the confession of Mrs.

Mrs. Crittenten is the wife Of a

with a 5000 sealskin coat, which
Mrs. Crittenten confessed to have
stolen from Benson & Thorne.
She told her story to the Sioux
City police of how she had adopted
an orphan baby and hired maid,
with whom she went through de-
partment stores, stealing whatever
pleased her fancy. The stolen goods

Blood-Iron Phosphate
Makes Thin Folks Fat

If you are weak, thin and emacated and
can't put on flesh or get strong. no matter
how much you eat, go to the five Sherman
& Mcconnell drug stores or any other drug
gist and get enough Blood-Iron Phosphate
for a three weeks treatment-it costs only
so cents a week--and take as directed. If
at the end of three weeks you don't feel
stronger and better than you have for
months: if your eyes aren't brighter and
your nerves steadier; if you don't sleep
better, and your vim, vigor and vitality
aren't more than doubled. or If you haven't
put on several pounds of good stay-there
flesh, you can have your money back for
the asking and Blood-Iron Phosphate will
cost you nothing.
