Buving q Pig in a Poke

Question-A customer of ours has been
Tennessee Agricultural Chemical Corpora
ton. May l ask you your opinion OF /.
and IT., as the customer states the agent
who sold him said. his concern maintained
a market for it?-F. J. c..
of the Tennessee Agricultural Chem
ical Corporation has there been pub
Fshed an earnings statement. Upon
inquiring of Messrs. Friedman & Co.
81 Exchange Place, the house offering
the common stock, we were unable to
elicit much information regarding the
company's earnings. We were told
that before long the annual meeting
would be held, at which time q state
ment of earnings would be published.
What these earnings will be the firm
refused to state, but admonished US to
have patience. The gentleman to
whom We spoke rather resented that
we should. under the circum stances
term the stock a pure speculation, so
Ear as outside purchasers are con-
comfort from the fact that The Trb.
une had termed such stocks as United
States Steel common and Standard Oil
of New Jersey common speculative
Finding, then. that Tennessee Agri-
cultural Chemical common stock might
be entitled to the same appcllation
there appeared to be considerable
satisfaction on his part. The fact
that we attempted to set forth that
because stock is speculative it does

limited, we gave it up. The result Is
that we know no more now than wher
we started Selling stock in a corpora.

ticularly when the prospective pur-
chaser is not enlightened as to the
earning capacity Of the company. All
of which does not mean that the Ten.

far as maintaining market for stocl
is concerned, we might add that it is

After that-well. much depends upor

oues,ion-,will you kindly let me know
what ought to do with 100 shares OF
Submarine Roat Corporation stock for
which paid $3.50 per share several years
ago? Ought buy some more Al prcse Mt
Nprlce TO average up. or would 1t be better
to sell out and put tho money into some
thing else paying a better dividend p
r. j. p.
Answer-The Tribune makes no at
tempt to advise regarding speculation.
The Submarine Boat Corporation en-
joyed considerable prosperity during
the war. Quite naturally its business
The company has gone on a peace-time
basis and its business has shown i'm
provement Of late. The stock was one
of the we'll known "war brides" We
cannot say what its course will be in
the market. 1t is highly speculative.
If you desire to place yourself on a
better investment basis you should sell
the stock and purchase good bonds or
seasoned preferred stocks.

SECRETARY LANE
 MAY RESIGN SOON
PRESIDENT WILSON HAS MAN IN MIND TO SUCCEED THE
 SECRETARY.

Washington. - Considerable sur prise was evidenced in official guar. ters when it was said at the White House that President Wilson already had in mind Il man to succeed Frank lin Lane as secretary of the interior, although the secretary has not yet resigned
 One of the most surprised men in Washington was Secretary Lane. It is true that Secretary Lane eontem- plates resigning and so admitted eev- oral weeks ago when reports of his intention was published But he has not submitted his resignation to the president and has rofrained from do- ing SO because he did not wish to leave the cabinet or to make trouble 'or President Wilson during his ill- ness
 ''Is that so?" said the secretary, when informed of the statement made at the White House Well, guess naG better look into that"
 Some of Secretary Lanes friends insist that the publication of the fact that lresident Wilson has sue cessor in mind for thc head of the Interior Department, will hasten MT. Lanes resignation. The secretary would make no statement He has repeatedly refused to talk about his future and has declined to discuss ru- mCrS relating to business connections he might make. Several reports have connected him with a big coal and ica distributing cooperation being formed in New erk in which Francis s. Peabody of Chicago is interested. Other reports are to the effect that the secretary will return to journal ism
 Persistent reports that Secretary Lansing will not finish out hi5 term have no origin in his mind acc0rdirS g to the secretary of state. who denied that he contemplated resigning. A published report that Mr. Lansing was not cn speaking terms with the pres ideat was also denied bY the secre- tary. who said that he probably had more communication with the presi- dent during his lines than any other member Of the cabinet.

WILL DEPORT 2OOO
 MORE REDS SOON
DE APARTMENT OF JUSTICE IS ROUNDING UP MORE RADICALS
 FOR DEPORTATION.

Washington. Following disclos. ure that the Department of Justice is rounding up approximately 2,c0O more BolShevists m various parts of th7 country for deportation to Europe, At. 1 torney General Palmer urged th" American people to take a New Years resolution ito study, understand and appreciate the so-called Red move. ment "
 The attorney general said that the He'd propaganda can be counteracte tea effectively by teaching its purposes through tho press, the church, the schools, patriotic organizations and labor unions. all of which are within the range of it's insidious attacks.
 The attorney general says his de partment has been actively pursuing the Reds. This activity resulted in a deportation of 249 Reds on the 50. vlet Ark recently. and 2,o00 foreign agitators. the department says, will bo arrested within the next tive months
 iAa' utp<ti iiAlNiit, dS tSti dS tAiSis ing laws allow, intends during the forthcoming year to keep up a persist. ent, aggressive warfare against any movement, no matter how cloaked or djsSemhled, having for it's purpose either the promulgation of these ideas or tho excitation of sympathy for those who spread them,' said MT Palmer.
 The Red movement will not be permitted to go far enough in this country to disturb our peace and well being, or create any widespread dis. trust of the peoples government It will fall away before the light of pop ular knoweldge and appreciation of its aims and purposes"
 According to Mr. Palmer the de voices of Bolshevism fn tho United States composed chiefly of criminals, mistaken idealsts. social bigots and many unfortunate men and women. suffering with varying forms of hy persthonia. They are enemies of the government. of the church and of the hone, and advocate principles which mean the abolition of all three of those safeguards of civilization.

Killed by Poisons

All scientists agree that poisonous products in the blood are eliminated by the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act as a kind of filter for these products. When the kidneys are changed or de- generated, by disease or old age, then these poisons are retained in the body. Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., says that you should drink plentyof water;to flush the kidneys. Then procure Anuric. This Anuric drives the uric acid out. Scientific men have learned that in gout, also rheumatism, poisonous uric acid crystals are deposited in or about the Joints, in the muscles--where in- fammation is set up.
 Geneva, Ark. :-"I had bad spell of kidney and bladder trouble. Was in a sanitarium twice and had medicine from two doctors and took four or five different kinds of kidney and bladder medicines. I then bought Anuric Tablets, and I am cured sound and well-have no symptoms of my old trouble. Can walk two miles and back and do my housework and washing, am tough as a pine knot.'' Anuric is the best medicine ever tried My husband, too, says it is fine. ."-MRs. JENNIE B. LANGDoN, Route l, Box 63.
