BRITAIN's BIG STRIKE ENDS
official Statement is Given out in
London-G Gigantic Terrorist
Plot Falls.

London, Feb. 1.-THE strike Is
ended. All subway lines have resumed
service"
This official statement, coupled with
the announcement that 5000 striking
walters are ready to report for work,
rings the death knell of the fred men
ace" in Britain and means the frustra-
ion of a gigantic terrorist plot to
paralyze international industry in
Britain, the whole Of Europe, and the
United States preliminary to uni
versal revolution.
This at least was the opinion Of the
international students Of labor. The
British governments firm attitude
smashed the world dramas first act

Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, NJ. I

BY ERANhL1N DUANE, M u.
It 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
aches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizzi-
ness, 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.. Pierse's Golden Medical Discov-
ery. It is wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is
made of roots and herbs. DIR. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N. Y, stands behind this stand
ard medicine, and it is good to know that
SO 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
a 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
F:erce's, 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.

WORLD.
Wayne B. Wheeler, attorney and
general counsel of the Saloon
league, told of the present liquor laws
Of foreign nations. He said:
'"The laws of country, generally
speaking, reflect. the average senti-
nent of the people. This rule varies,
however, with the form of govern
nent and the means of giving express
sion to public opinion.
'The countries that have adopted
prohibition, permanent, war or by re-
igious mandates, are Canada, Iceland,
Greenland, the North Sea Fisheries,
he Farce Islands, the islands and
territory under the jurisdiction of the
United States except the Philippines,
Central Asia, Transcaucasia, Russia,
and Transcaspian Territory, China.
Turkey and part of Africa.
New Zealand, Scotland, Australia,
Norway and Tasmania have local OPP
ion laws.
England, France. Italy, South
America, North and South Africa,
Portugal. Spain. Sweden, Norway.
Ceylon, Germany, Holland, Belgium
Ind practically all of the European
countries have permissive or license
avs.

oition law for the United States, APP
proximately 80 per cent Of the terri
.ory Of the world is under prohibition,

FAIRLY.
William Jennings Bryan tells this
story:
"a farmer told me that soon after
he moved from the country into little
town man came to him and wanted
him to sign petition for a saloon in
his town, and he said: No, won't
sign it, and the man said, 'WhyT He
said, Because they don't treat the sa-
loonkeeper fairly Now this applicant
for license had had many objections
made to signing petition, but never
had one of this kind been made before,
and so he said, What do you mean by
that?' Here is the explanation: You
think that your saloon will help the
town, don't your Yes, sir. You
think that it will bring business and
improved trade, don't you? Yes, SIR
We'll, now, if that saloon will do what
you say it will do, if it will bring trade
and improve business, and help the
town, they ought to give you bounty
for starting that saloon to help the
town and not make you pay big tax
for helping the town with the saloon.
Can you answer the logic of that mans
argument?"
