A Hint to the AGED.

If people past sixty years of age
could be persuaded to go to bed as
soon as they take cold and remain
in bed for one 0 rtwo days, they
would recover much more quickly,
especially If htey take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. There would
also be less danger of the cold be-
ing followed by any of the more
serious diseases.-Adv. DIV

HOLMES CALLS PACT
BIG MORAL FAILURE
Versailles Missed Chance to
Create NelD Europe.

DR.. John Haynes Holmes, pastor of
and Thirty-fourth street, pronounced the
peace treaty the greatest moral failure
Of the world in a sermon yesterday. In
stead OF guaranteeing against war. the
treaty sows the seeds OF new wars. he
said.
III President Wilson comes home and
says frankly that he did the best he
could in Paris. but failed because he ran
against stronger forces, we must all
honor him as a man who tried greatly
DR.. Holmes observed. IF. however. he
returns saying that he got what he went
overseas for. a new charter of civil lib
erty, he will be a discredited man and
will SO stand in history.
The peace treaty is a moral tragedy
in falling to carry out the promise OF
the fourteen points and In failing to end
war. Versailles missed the great oo-
portunity OF the Allies to create new
Europe. Instead. the Paris conference
took. hold of old jealousies with none OF
their blackness wiped off and tried to
reconcile them. There stood out no one
great principle that was for moment
worth all Of the time spent since the
arnistice.
Governments and not peoples had
their ways, and devious ways they were.
Old intrigue ought TO have been swept
aside, as 1t was pledged that 1t would
be, and the principles of Christianity
applied. The world never before wit
messed a greater moral failure in which
more time was spent in bringing In the
failure. more lives given in vain, ana
more treasure wasted"

EMPLOYMENT SHOWS GAIN.
Figures for June Slightly Better
Than May.

The State Industrial Commission, of
which John Mitchell is chairman. re-
ported yesterday that factory employ
ment in June showed a slight gain over
May. This appeared to be due to the re-
turn to work of employees who were out
on strike, rather than to any new move
ment In factory employment. Excluding
the metal industries from consideration.
factory employment. as a whole, has been
improving since February. The survey
is based on reports to the commission
from l.41o manufacturers, employing
100000 workers.
A gain In the number OF employees
from May to June appears in stone, clay.
glass, wood manufactures, furs, leather,
rubber goods, food. paper and textiles.
The paper industry reveals the most con-
spicuous increase. There was a decrease
in silk goods employment. due to a strike.
The chemical and oil industries show no
marked change Metal working indus
tries fell on 2 per cent In employment
