In Mississippi more than one thou

driven from their homes at Hatties-
burg when the Leaf River overflowed

property damage in the city and sur
rounding country.
| At Meridian, Enterprise and Laurel
and Basic City, portion of the towns

was almost completely suspended.

Point, the principal points in Georgia

loads We're available. Relief for some
points, however, faced delay because of
almost unprecedented snowfall. In the
plains states railroad traffic was bad
ly interrupted by snow drifts. and in
the Pacific northwest. where nearly
forty hours of uninterrupted snowfall
was recorded, conditions were worse.
Throughout the central area the sub
zero temperatures that yesterday in
many places established season records
today had given way to milder temper
atures and lessened the sacrifice coal
saving entailed. Denver led the up
ward trend of the mercury with a So
degree range from IL below zero to so
above. At other places the moderation
was less marked. At Minneapolis the
thermometer rose from 16 below to
even zero.
Omaha from Is below to above
and at Chicago from minus to plus
5, with relief from the unseasonab BILE
weather in all sections forecast for by
tomorrow night.
Except in the Illinois fields where it
was said by one union leader that the
men had looked forward to a 81 per
cent increaSe, and in Montana, where
the. district president said the miners
would not return to work as long as
the soldiers are in the coal fields, it
was expected work generally would be
resumed today.
Generally the mines were in condi-
ton to be worked immedia tely. They
had been kept in order by conserva-
ton crews left by the strikers and the
regular shifts of engineers and fire.
men.
a number of cities and towns in the
Pacific northwest were reported in ur-
gent need of fuel. Salem, Ore, was
entirely without coal and more than 2
feet of snow had fallen.

country which lost on the fplebiscite.
Up to the present moment, no plebis-
cite has taken place. owing to the in
trans1gent attitude of Peru as to who
! shaH nave the vote. Chile wishes
everybody to be given the right to
vote, but Peru is not in accord with
US about this. That is, shortly, the
root of the question. There is no
danger of war, however, between the
two countries.
We are on very good terms with
the other two A b C Powers: the
frontier difficulties with the Argen-
tine nave been satisfactorily settled of
course. Chile was the first South
american nation to submit to arbitra-

Edwards solution of the difficulties
with the United States.
The Monroe Doctrine, of which the
whole world hears so much from time

America. North and South. 1t orig

English statesman, George Canning. At
the time of the Holy Alliance in Eu-
rope he instructed the British Min
lister at Washington to suggest it to
the American government. An ex-
change of letters followed between

outcome.

Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water
in the Morning
Wash away all stomach, liver,
ard bowel poisons before
breakfast.

To feel your best day in and day
out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head; no constipa-
ton, bilious attacks. sick headache,
cold, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom-
ach. you must battle on the inside like
you battle outside This is vastly more
important, because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
while the bowel pores do.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day, glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in il. This will cleanse,
purify, and fresllen the entire alimen-
tary tract before eating more food.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your .pharamist. It is
Inexpensive and almost tasteless.
Drink phosphated hot water every
morning to rid your system Of these
vile poisons and toxins; also to pre-
vent their formation.-Adv.

One thing which alarmed him was
the enormous development of the use
of motor cars in America with a con-

demand existed at a time when the

he said, had been reduced to 100000
bales.
