TONIC TREATMENT
CORRECTS SEVERE
NERVOUS DISORDER
Connecticut Man About Ready to Give
Up Hope of Improvement When
He Found a Remedy.

Don't grow depressed because you
haven't been able to find relief for ner-
vous disorders. Depression neutralizes
the value of medicines and retards re-
coyery. Frequently the nervous com
plant is caused by the failure of the
blood to carry the required nourishment
to the nerves. The nerves receive their
strength directly from the blood and in
no other way and once the blood becomes
thin and weak the nerves refuse to func-
ton naturally, The logical treatment of
nerve disorders is TO renew the blood.
One of the most successful treatments
in some of the most serious nervous dis
eases has been the use of the tonic which

COAL INFORMATION
his Space Purchased By the Barre Coal Dealers Order
Explain in Detail TO Their Customers the Coal Situation

Coal is so essential in our daily life that it
may be called public utility For the past
two years almost insurmountable difficulties
have surrounded the trade In the face of
these difficulties in the fuel situation, Barre
has been cared for and better protected than
the majority of cities in New England. This
has been due to the cooperation of the Con-
sumers, the local Fuel Committee and the
Coal Dealers: the Consumer by his willing
ness to conserve coal and substitute other
fuels; the Fuel Committee by its fine work
in equafizing and experimenting the distri-
button; and the Coal Dealers by the energy
displayed in securing large stocks and their
rigid adherence to the rules of distribution
as laid down by the local Fuel Board.
War conditions have passed, but pre-war
conditions have not returned. 1t is our pur-
pose to give to the public such information as
we have relative to coal, under the existing
conditions.

actual heat-producing material which comes
out of the ground. Seventy cents out of each
dollar spent for coal goes to the labor which
mines it, handles it when it reaches the sur
face, loads it into cars, hauls it to destination,
unloads it from the cars, hauls it to your
dwelling and delivers it into your coal bin.
When you realize that 70 per cent of the
cost of coal represents labor cost, and you
also recall the tremendous increase in the
cost of labor during the past three years,
then you will begin to understand why the
price of coal has gone so high but, even in
spite of this the retail price of practically
every essential commodity in the same period
has increased more than has the retail price

Supply

There is no surplus of mined coal. In nor
NAL times the supply just about meets the
demand, and any curtailment of output re-
suits IN corresponding shortage during the
winter months Production during the past
three months has fallen below the average.
Weather conditions are to blame Mild wealth
er has made us forget the rigors of last win
ter, and we are not worrying about next
winter. All of this will result in an increased
demand and probable short supply next fall
and winter, due to the difficulties of opera
ton and transportation that are always with
us IN any normal winter. Labor itself will not
be plentiful in the mining regions It is i'm
portant to know that over one-half million
forelgn-born, unnaturalized laborers have
applied to the State Department for pass
ports to Europe and of these the biggest
proportion come from the mining regions of
the country. This means obviously a still fur
Their shrinkage in mining labor to be added to
the 30 per cent shrinkage of last year in that
class of labor.
From the above facts it is evident that
there will be no surplus coal this winter. Do
not wait too long before getting your sup
ply. Don't let yourself become Indifferent or
complacent over the reduced amount Of fuel
you used this winter. This has been an I'M
usually mild season, and the records of the
weather bureau show that the average tenn
perature OF this winter has been many de-
grees higher than normal
1t is not safe to count on next winter being
like this past one. 1t is your business to pre-
pare for the coming winter Talk it over with
your coal man. He will gladly give you any
information he may have.

important to note that after this investiga-

In viewing the present fuel situation and
the probable cost Of coal, it is well to inspect
carefully the various elements which go to
control the prices of coal
In the first place, the Dealers cost of doing
business has materially increased in the last
three years. his labor costs are higher; his
delivery system is more expensive; and his
overhead expenses have increased, as has
that Of every other business. In addition to
this, since last spring there have been two
Increases in the price of coal at the mines, the
first of 30c per ton and the second of 81 05 per
ton. During the same period, the Federal
Railroad Administration has imposed two
raises in freight rates, the first of 15c per ton
and the second of 60c per ton. Consequently,
causes over which the local coal dealer had
no control have increased the cost of each ton
of coal since last spring, approximately $210.
The coal dealers must also pay d per cent
war tax on freight rates paid. This amounts
to about 13c per ton.

BONDS BARELY
WERE BEATEN
Commissioners and Leading Bond Ad-
vOcates are Already Consider
ing Another Campaign

There were many fluctuations Of
opinion on the bond issue Selection
Tuesday. At suppertime tbs bond
advocates in Ocala were almost sure
of victory. Ocala had gone two to
one for bonds and other precincts
sent in reports that put that side
about $50 to the good-"with only
fourteen precincts to hear FROM" the
bend boys joyfully said.
The old men shook their heads.
They knew what those fourteen pre-
cincts could do in an election. And
they did it. climbing steadily until
bed time, when with only one to hear
from bonds were twenty-five votes
behind.
We have not learned the vote by
precincts. Ocala voted for bonds by
299 to 148. Mcintosh so far is the
banner bond precinct, casting sixty
seven for to one against.
The county commissioners report
this morning that bonds were beaten
by about fifty votes in total of about
160O-the closest contest We can re-
member in this county.
In consequence of this unexpected
ly large bond vote, and the certainty
that many would have voted for bonds
under a somewhat different plan, the
commissioners are considering calling
another election. as the $3.50, 1000
worth of help from the federal and
state governments is too much for a
county. to refuse.
