COMMERCIAL PLANE
 USED BY BONAR LAW
Flies From England to Scotland
 to Make Campaign Speech

London, April 3 Correspondence of The Associated Press. )--An exam ple of the commercial uses to which the airplane might be devoted has been given by the chancellor of the exchequer. Andrew Bonar Law, by twice flying from his home in London to Scotland to make speeches in the parliamentary campaign now ended. The chancellor was the first states man in England to avail himself of air transport for everyday purposes. By travelling by airplane he crowded into six hours journey which would have consumed A hours by train.
 MT. Bonar Law is not a young man nor does he regard flying as an 'ad- venture, He is 8 practical man of business with an eye to the saving of time and travelled by air merely as matter of economy. It is suggested here that bankers and railway off, cials who have to fill engagen ents in different parts of the country and whose time is valuable may be ex- pected to follow his example.
 His exploit has increased the spec ulation on the future of flying as commercial business. Hundreds of military flying men would like to con- tinue their air work. To what extent ] peace conditions will offer opportunity to them is an interesting question: 1 Thus far no definite projects for pas senger service have been started, a1- though there is much talk of a daily air service for passenge between London and Paris, weather permit i ting.
 Suggestion has been made that one 1 of the large machines of a type which recently carried fl passengers over London, making a two-hour flight at a speed of more than 100 miles an l hour might be used in the London and Paris service. The. largest number of i persons previously carried by an air.

WORK PROGRESSING
Preliminary Contracts With Disabled Men Established Abroad By Federal Board For Vocational Education.

Washington, April 1.-Among the board for vocational education, have established preliminary contacts with f07, 900 injured or disabled men. and working contacts with 65,OOO men by a personal interview before their return to this country, furnish Ing information about what the gov ernment is prepared to do for train ing and placing disabled soldiers, sailors and marines.
 The work Is now being co-ordinated with the activity of the reconstruction hospitals of the army, and where 1t Is evident from 8 preliminary survey that 8 man Is a permanently disabled case, the prelinlinar1es are arranged, and it Is decided what will be best for him to study or train for. Tho voluntary assent Of the individual Is always an essential feature, and no man is ever forced to take the train ing, or Is persuaded to take that which he IS not heartily in favor of and which he wants to do.
 By this means, much time is saved and during the period of the disabled man In the reconstruction hospital he is, when possible, given such prelim- mary work In the line he has chosen so that upon his discharge, when he comes under the jurisdiction of, the federal board for further training, he has utilized his hospital period to good advantage and has made con- siderable progress. Thus the process is made continuous,

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, April 22.-Corn climbed just a little higher today than all previous top levels this season Of ficial announcement that no 5c bread was in sight formed the chief basis for the new upturn. The market clos ed unsettled, 9sc net lower to 1c ad- vance, with July $1.58A to $158H and September $1.54 to s1.541s. Oats finished unchanged to Ac down and provisions unchanged to soc decline
 Statements made by the federal wheat director touching the probable continuance of world high preces for bread and indicating that European supplies of foodstuffs would be even smaller this year than last year gave the corn market immediate fresh strength. The fact that live hogs had risen in value to the highest point ever reached in Chicago, S2l per hundred pounds, tended further to stimulate demand for corn. On the ensuing advance, however, profit talk ing sales broadened out and hedging operations put additional weight on the market. A break resulted, but then offerings were again quickly ab- sorbed, and the market was rallying at the last, with shorts active bidders and apparently somewhat scared.
 Absence of eastern shipping call made oats incline to sag.
 Provisions lacked any aggressive support. Record breaking high prices on hogs seemed to have put decided check on demand.

FOR INDIGESTION
 TAKE LAXCARIN
Never Known To Fail

Nearly everybody suffers at times after eating. Especially after feast or some sort when a large number of different courses are served, and where everybody wishes to show off by eating more than his or her share Some people call this suffering a plain case of indigestion, some call it dys- pepsia, others call it gastritis; but no matter what they call it, no matter now many remedies you have tried instant and almost invariable relief may be obtained by taking a Laxcarin tablet three times per day, or if the case IS not an acute one, just one or two tablets per day. Laxcarin in- stantly neutralizes the stomach acids and stops food fermentation. tbe cause of nine-tenths of stomach trou- Die, and thus enables the stomach to proceed with digestion in a painless normal manner. Care should be taken that you get the genuine Laxcarin. and therefore it is best to write di. rect to the distributors, as owing to the Laxcarin's marvellous properties many people substitute it.
 Laxearin is also good for had breath, coated tongue, billiousness sour stomach, sick headaches, bloat. ing, belching, gas, constipation or oth- CT results of indigestion and no rem edy is higher recommended. Lax carin does not gripe nor nausate. Does it's. work gently, cleanses the bowels, sweetens the stomach and benefits the liver In other words if makes a new man out of you. Never disappoints.
 John Lefkovits, 331 West Hampton bolevard, E. E. Pittsburg, Pa: q can say that Laxcarin tablets are wonder full" Many others.
 Do not hesitate to try Laxcarin It has benefited others, and no doubt it will do worldly good for you. Seno for it today.
