TASTES YANK SPEED
King Albert and Party Start Voyage
to United States.

Aboard L. s. S. George washington,
Sept. 23.-King Albert has received
his taste OF American speed. The
king reveled in it, and is ready for
more.
The initial bit Of Yankee hustle was
thrown Into play yesterday when the
king left Ostend to board the George
Washington. three miles off Calais.
II was staged by snappy American
naval officers and husky American
gobs.
When Albert, with Queen Elizabeth
and the crown prince. boarded the
United States destroyer Ingraham at
Ostend, the king announced, in demo-
cratic fashion, that he was in a hurry.
Orders were shouted. The destroyer
leaped from its moorinEs. And by
the time Albert was comfortably quar-
tered the Ingraham had struck up a
clip of 35 knots.
well doneH exclaimed the mon
arch as the destroyer drew UP along
side the ocean liner. His words were
addressed to Capt. L. E.. Breton, COM
mander of the Ingraham. The Off
GERS and crew of the George Washing
ton vowed today the King would wit
ness further ''snappy action" before
he reached American shores.
Hundreds of thousands of cheering
Belgians lined the shore and the
moles at Ostend when their king de-
parted. Several thousand Belgian
school children gathered at the water S
edge and sang the national anthem.
1t was a genuine American welcome
that was given the royal party when
it boarded the steamer. American
soldiers on board Joined heartily in
the cheers for King Albert, who had
expressed the desire that no soldier
should be prevented from going home
on his account, saying:
"I am a soldier myself"

Il never have had such a 'Godsend'
come To me as when I took the. first
dose OF Mnyr's Wonderful Remedy. L
was afraid I would have to give up
nv school because OF severe stomach,
liver and bowel trouble which caused
a pressure of gas that could not use
my brain at times. and my heart
would palpitate awfully. Since taking
a treatment of Mayr's Wonderful
Remedy a year ago. all this has dis
appeared" 1t Is a simple, harmless
preparation that removes the catarrhal
mucus from the intestinal tract and
ailays the inflammation which causes
practically all stomach, liver and in
festival ailments, including appendi-
citis. one dose will convince or money
refunded. At all druggists.-Adv.

THE opponents of prohibition have
a well-planned campaign for convinc-
ing the public that the liquor business
has been abolished in this country
without the consent and contrary to
the desires of the people. The fact
that forty-five States have ratified the
prohibition amendment, leaving only
Rhode Island, Connecticut and New
Jersey as supporters of the saloons,
seems to have no significance to the
liquor advocates, and they have been
declaring that if the voters could only
have a chance with a direct vote they
would emphatically express their con-
demnation of the dry programme.
Well, the people had the opportunity
on Monday to express their sentiments
in Michigan. A State constitutional
amendment to legalize the sale of ligh,
wine and beer-the very thing that
the liquor people wanted put to the
teSt-was voted upon directly, and it
was showed under oy a majority Of
more than 100000!
The booze hackers have failed to fool
the laboring men with their cry Of
mo beer, no work." and now they
have fallen down on their direct vote
proposition. Wonder what they will
try to start next?
