People get sick because they go away from Nature, and the only
way to get well is to go back. Something grows out OF the ground
IN the form of vegetation to cure almost every i'll. Some of these
vegetable growths are understood by man, and some are not. AMI
mails, it would seem, know what to do when they are sick better than
men and women. Observers have noted that a sick horse, dog or
cat will stop eating food and seek out some. vegetable growth IN the
field or yard, which, when found and eaten, often restores appetite
and health. \ Haven't YOU seen these animals do this very thing

Dr.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, long since found herbs and roots
provided by Nature to overcome constipation, for he found a combi-
nation Of May-apple, leaves Of aloe and root of iaap rolled into a tiny
sugar-coated pellet called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to be as
effective as castor oil and much more pleasant to take. Food waste,
if allowed to accumulate, stagnates and gives rise to poisonous matter.
This if allowed to be absorbed into the blood produces 900 of the
diseases that attack mankind. When your head feels dun-when
your eyes lack the clear brightness of health, complexion muddy

LETTER RECEIVED BY
CHIEF OF POLICE

Chief OF Police Charles Obery has
received letter from "Pussyfoot"
johnson relative to the status of good
order since the law regulating pro-
hibition went into effect
Mr. Johnson writes In an official
capacity, as he is said to be compiling
statistics relative to the effect pro-
hibition has had upon the nation, and
to this end is inquiring of all police
officials in cities and towns throughout
the United States where the law is
effective.
1t is probable that the report from
Annapolis will show there have been
fewer arrests and better order since
the law has been enforced here gov
erning the sale OF alcoholic stimulants,
as Chief Obery has reported fewer
cases in November than any previous
month in the history OF the town.

OHIO COAL STRIKE
NEAR SETTLEMENT


Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 5.-Settlement
of the coal strike in Ohio was very
near today, according to reports from
the Office of Governor Cox at noon. At
that hour the Governor was in con
ference with approximately fifty lead
ing coal operators of the State, fol-
lowing several conferences with OFF,
cials of the union.
1t is reported that Governor Cox was
attempting to bring about settle
ment of the strike upon wage scale
higher than the one containing the IA
percent increase proposed by DR.. Gar
field Unofficial reports said that
probably the scale contemplated as a
basis of settlement by Governor Cox
and the Ohio operators would involve
an increase of from eighteen to twen-
ty-five percent.
Should an agreement be reached it
was said the Ohio miners would ask
permission from the National Union to
settle the strike and return to work in
Ohio.

View York, n. Y, Dee. 5.-Alexander
Berkman and Emma Goldman. his
companion in thirty years Of anarchis-
tic outbreaks, were sent from the
mainland of the United States today
probably never to return. Under an
order of deportation they were taken
by ferry to the immigration Station,
at Ellis Island, until a ship is avail
able to take them 10 Russia, whence
they came.
As soon as they were surrendered
by their counsel, lawyers started
habeas corpus proceedings in the

ground that the government had not
the right to deport person for an
attitude of mind or for the holding
of political, social. or economic views.
The petition sets forth that they were
admitted to this country more than
thirty years ago and that neither OF
them was an anarchist at that time.

another encouraging feature was that
eight new members joined the Circle
in course of the meeting, and many
more expressed their desire of becom-
ing members at an early date
Mrs. Moss. in her address, dwelt
upon the constitution of the Mothers
Circle She emphasized the ideals
for which it stands, and added many
helpful points along the line of what
the responsibilities of mothers are
Mrs Linthicum spoke of the work of
the Circle generally; what it had sc-
complised in the past; that other or
ganizations had developed from the
Mothers Circle; and what it means
to have so many mothers banded 10
gether with the one prime object in
view that of Child Welfare.
Miss Josephine Riordan, principal
of the Grammar School. was another
speaker Miss Riordan brought a
greeting from the pupils of the school,
as we'll as words of her own appre-
citation for what the Circle had done
in the past Urging cooperation, Miss
Riordan said the teachers plead for
helpful effort and cooperation on the
part of parents and patrons.
A general discussion then followed
in which praise was given for the
work OF the principals and teachers
of both the High and Grammar de-
partments Miss Louise w. Linthicum,
principal of the high school added
that she stands willing to give her
support to whatever movement may
