WHY, Is A
HEADACHE?
Various Causes for this Common
AfflictiOn
Anemia or BloOdlessness Very Com
mon Cause
Pepto- Mangan Overcomes Anemia and
Tends to Prevent Headaches.

When one has an occasional head
ache it is usually due to some tran
silent or passing cause, such as indl-
gestion, eye-strain, over-tiredness, etc.
When, however, one suffers from fire.
quent periodic headaches there is al
ways some special reason for It,
Among the most common of such rea-
sons is Anemia or Bloodlessness. This
condition is especially frequent among
girls and young women and those
whose occupations or habits of life
keep them too much indoors. The one
important necessity in such cases is to
build up the quantity and quality OF
the weak and watery blood. Guides
-Mangan is exceptionally valu-
able for this purpose. 1t increases the
number and improves the quality OF
the red blood cells, those vital little
bodies which carry nutrition to all
parts of the body. 1t improves the
appetite, imparts color t othe face, and
restores health and strength to the
body generally. After short course
of epto-Mangan the headaches de-
crease in frequency and severity, and
finally disappear, if they are due .to
Anemia. Pepto-Mangan may be had
either in liquid or tabled form, as pre-
ferred. When buying Pepto- Mangan
be sure the name "Gude's" is on the
package. Without "Gude's" it is not
Pepto-Mangan. Adv.

do NOT Want
LICENSING BILLS
Farmers, Stockmen and Mer.
chants Oppose Packer Leg
isIation at Washington.

Representing a diversity OF inter-
ests and including farmers, feeders, re-
tail butchers and produce dealers, ful-
ly a thousand individuals have made
their way to Washington to enter their
protests against the packer licensing
plan now in hearing before the senate
agriculture committee.
Far from solving In any measure the
high cost of living, the proposed legis-
lation if passed would be dangerous
experiment for everyone, is the con-
sensus of opinion held by these wit
nesSes.
"We've had government control OF
railroads and telephones and tele-
graphs until we're plumb worn out.
and we don't want any more w. r.
Carpenter, stock feeder Of Tarkio, Mo-,
told the committee. "Pm in favor OF
the man who can produce the cheapest
going ahead as far as he can. That's
the way to cut down the cost OF liv-
ing"
That the packers dominated the
stock markets was an idea secuted
by testifying stock feeders, who said
they found the stock yards places OF
keen competition.
Taking away the packers refrigera-
tor cars was as reasonable as taking
away their butcher knives. was the
conviction expressed by j. z. Lynch,
another feeder from Tarkio.
The concern of stockmen and butch
ers who fear that hampering the pack
ers will only result in disrupting the
meat industry without benefit to any
one. was not the sole interest displayed
at the hearing. Business men through
out the country are strongly against
the licensing feature which would esr
tablish a precedent for bringing go7-
eminent control and politics into the
conduct of all manner of business.
Many business organizations have
expressed themselves formally, through
resolutions, as against the principle of
bringing business under government
interference Of the kind proposed in
the Kenyon and Kendrick bills.
In speaking for the chamber of COM
| merce of Moultrie, Ga, G. L. Caldwell
| said: "We've got Swift & Co. down
there, and they've helped more than
anything else to get our farmers to
diversity. The live stock business
needs their national distribution"

The PACKERS AND
refrigerator CARS

Whether refrigerator cars should be
owned by the railroads or by the pack
ers-a point to be determined by leg
islation now pending in Washington
may seem to be a question rather re-
mote from the interests of the average
person. Bur, inasmuch as these "ice
boxes on Wheels" as one of the pack
ers terms them, are the conveyances
which bring our beefsteak to town, we
may assume that we have certain
concern about them. If they have any
thing to do with the price of the beef
steak our concern is deep one.
1t is maintained by some that these
cacs give the packers who now own
them an unfair advantage over COM
petitors. This is stoutly denied by the
packers, who offer as proof the fact
that they pay the same freight rates
as any shipper; and they assert that
the only advantage they enjoy is in
being able to get enough cars for their
needs by furnishing them themselves
instead of depending upon the rail-
roads to do So In this they are backed
up by report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, made after an in
vestigation of all privately owned
cars, to the effect that there were no
unfair practices and that radical
change would adversely affect both
shippers and the public.
While not opposing, in principle,
railroad ownership OF refrigerator
cars, the packers maintain that there
are not enough of these cars to go
around and that the legislation in
question makes no provision for insur-
ing that the railroads shall furnish
them in sufficient number. On the
other hand, to pool their cars and take
chances Of getting what happened to
be available, would seriously handi-
cap the distribution of their perishable
meat products. The stream of ship
ments from the packing plants woulC
be blocked, which in turn would block

muddled.
In these contentious pro and con,
there are three parties whose interests
are at stake--the packers, their COM
petitors and the public. Only one Of
these parties could gain a possible adj
vantage if the packers, cars were
taken away from them, viz, the pack
ers' competitors. The cars are now
admittedly handled on an economic
and efficient basis, and no change is
justified unlesS unfairness is definitely
and absolutely proved-which would
be in absolute contradiction to the re-
port that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has already rendered or
the subject. The public would pay the
bill for inefficiency in the packing il
dustry, and it has no desire to pay II
bill in order to help few of the
ers' competitors.
