STOOD UP FOR HIS RIGHTS
Drafted Man Fully Realized He Was

A drafted man from a dry state

got down to the Angel island boat in
she morning, about one minute before
the boat was due to leave.
Get aboard here, and be quick

Instead, the recruit smiled, lighted a
cigarette as best he could, and then sat
down on the dock.

TREE PUZZLE TO FORESTERS
Peculiar Formation Of Spruce Han
Caused Speculation Among Men
Learned in That Lore.

A cross section of great old spruce
tree from Alaska tells the story of
tree which executed SPIN like bal
let dancer. This cross section shows
a most peculiar spiral structure. which
has caused great deal of speculation
among the various fOresters through
out the country and very interesting
explanation Is advanced in American
Forestry.
II Is known that tree growing at q
slant forms on the lower side of the
trunk a dense reddish wood known as
"rotholz." This spiral In this case Is
of such sort. end rs 1t is continuous
formation, winding from the center to
within half an inch from the circum-
ference, 1t is surmised that II was
growing In an inclined position on the
edge OF glacier. where by some.
shifting II was caused to rotate, so
that all sides of the tree were success
siyely on the downward side. Thus,
as the tree grew. and its rotation CON
tinued slowly, the ".'otholz" developed
into spiral.

Weekly Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, M. D.

BY FRANKLIN DUANE, NJ. D.
1t can be said broadly that most human
Ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat, trou-
bles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the common
est forms, but thin, impure blood, head
lches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizzi-
less, belching, coated tongue, weakness,
poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds
and bronchitis are almost as common.
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
In good order This is easy to do if you
take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dscov-
cry. 1t is a wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is SO safe to take, for it is
made of roots and herbs. DR.. Pierce, Of
Buffalo, N Y, stands behind this stand
ard medicine, and it is good to know that
30 distinguished a physician is proud to
have his name identified with it. When
you take Golden Medical Discovery, you
are getting the benefit of the experience Of
q doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get temper
ance medicine that contains not drop of
alcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DR.. Pierce combined certain valuable vege-
table ngredients-without the use of alco-
hol-so that these remedies always have
been strictly temperance medicines.
If piles are torturing you, get and use
Pierces Anodyne Pile Ointment. The
quick relief it gives is hard to believe until
you try it. If constipated DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken while
using Anodyne Pile Ointment. Few in.
deed are the cases which these splendid
remedies will not relieve and usually over
come They are so good that nearly every
drug store has them for sale.

SUFFRAG|STS LOSE
By JUST ONE VOTE
SENATE DECLINES TO APPROVE
HOUSE RESOLUTION FOR SUI
FRAGE AMENDMENT.
Women Fail in Final Effort to Secure
the Ballot, Vote in Senate Being
One Shy of Necessary
TWO Thirds.

Washington.-The hopes of the suf-
fragists were again dashed to the
ground on February 10, when the SEN
ate rejected the woman suffrage con-
stitutional amendment.
The house resolution for submission
of the amendment failed of adoption,
with 50 votes in favor of it and %
against, Just one vote less than the
necessary two-thirds.
Thus ended what leading suffrage
champions had said in advance would
be the final test of this session of con-
gress. The suffrage advocates went
into the test with the knowledge that
they lacked one vote, but hoping to
the last that the one vote would be
won over.
Immediately after the vote was an
nounced, leaders of woman'S organi-
cations announced that the fight would
be carried on in the next congress, in
which the Republicans will hold both
senate and house, and which,, friends
of the resolution declared they be-
llCNCu, dlC " ddOpL hS"
measure.
Senators NugeDt of Idaho, Pittman
of Nevada, Smoot of Utah and King
of Utah were for the measure; Sena-
tor Borah of Idaho voted against the
measure.
The senate first voted on the Susan
B. Anthony amendment in 1887, six
teen senators being recorded for it and
thirty-four against it. The next vote
was in 1914, senators dividing thirty
five for and thirty-four against. On
October 1, 1918, the vote was fifty-four
to thirty, or two less than the neces-
sary majority.
The one vote gained Monday was
that of Senator Pollock of South Caro-
lima, Democrat, who spoke in vigorous
support of the measure. Senator Pol
lock succeeded former Senator Benet,
who voted last October in opposition,
and will retire himself next month.

ALLIES GAINED MORAL
 PROSPERITY, SAYS JAP

TOKYO. Jan. 2O-(by Associated Press) Baron Takahashi, Japan finance minister recently warned the members of the Japan Trade associa- tion. that they should pay close at tcntion to the fact that while Japan had gained material prosperity from tho war. the other allies had gained moral prosperity. II was not i'm probale that the allied peoples by their sufferings and privations had more than offset their material losses by their moral progress.
 Japan. said the minister had placed her goods abroad largely because Tor eign customers could not get what they wanted from other countries. There had been complaints of the quality of goods exported from Japan. and every thing should be done to keep up the standard. He suggested that individual activity in trade and industries should be systematically trained and organized.
