Plumpness Makes Health
Thin People Heed This.

If you are too thin; if you are pale and
sallow; If what you eat seems not to
strengthen you, If your lips and cheeks
are colorless 1t is because your blood is
deficient in red corpuscles and disease
can easily overcome you, as you have no
reserve strength or nourishment to up
hold you.
A pharmaceutical product, called 8
grain hypo-nuclane tablets, Is much pre-
scribed for these conditions, and If taken
for several months, rapidly increases
weight and improves the color. Buy in
sealed package of any we'll stocked

That love sometimes cures dis
ease is a fact that has been called
to the attention Of the public by a
prominent physician. Love is not,
however, the cure for all women.
Many a woman is nervous and
irritable, feels dragged down and
worn out for no reason that she
can think Of.

scription gives new life and new
strength to weak, worn-out,

ANOTHER MIRACLE OF LOVE

That only three loves were lost and

TRAINS EOR EDEN

/" 4 LII aboard for BabyIon!' may soon
- ring through the waiting room at
Basra. Regular passenger train service
is shortly to be established between that
port and Bagdad, locale of most of the
Arabian nights. The scheduled time in
transit is TO be twenty-eight hours. The
magic carpet could of course, have made
a quicker trip. But then the djinn were
always prejudiced, lavish with favorites
and irritatingly indifferent to the gen
eral public.
The new railway line, which is under
British control, marks the completion of
what was intended to have been the last
link in the Berlin-to-Persia Gulf road
via Bagdad. Not much has been heard
lately concerning that longer section of
it which is to connect Scutar, opposite
Constantinople. with the city of the
Caliphs. At the time when Germany
lost the railway, however, the Taurus
tunnels were virtually completed and it
is likely that at present only few finish
ing touches along the Syrian desert route
are lacking. The Teuton imperial dream
of connecting the Bosporus with the
waters of the Persian gulf has almost
been realized, though not under Teuton
imperial auspices.
1t quickens the imagination to picture
the effects of the Tigris- -Euphrates val
ley line. Surely there is the most historic
of all river basins, not even excepting
the Ganges or the Nile. Expresses will
whiz through Eden, locomotives will
shrek not far from the site of Babylon.
The reclamation of a long neglected
region, once one of the gardens of the
globe, is inevitable. Whether our civili-
cation justifies either its critics or its
eulogists, there is no doubt that it is at
last marching through Mesopotamia.

FACTIONALlSM IN COUNCIL

THE men selected by the caucus of the
= majority members of Council for
president, chief clerk and sergeant-at
arms were elected yesterday when the
new Council met for organization.
And the three men selected to serve as
civil service commissioners were also
elected.
The attempt of the ten Ware council
men to dictate the order of procedure
was frivolous and foolish, conceived in
factionalism and executed in the same
spirit.
Cour'il, under the charter, is empow-
cred ''to provide for its own organiza-
ton" The majority provided for it in
the way that seemed to it best. To talk
about steam-roller methods and to quib-
BILE about parliamentary procedure under
the circumstances is to waste breath.
The significance of what happened lies
in its revelation of the purpose of the
minority to act as a unit in opposition
to the men who are pledged to the sup
port of the Mayor. 1t is fortunate that
they have come into the open thus early
and revealed their purposes.

BUSINESS SPEAKS UP

TNREATN obstructionists who may have
= any notion of serving the business
interests of the country will not be eX-
acty flattered by the plea for immediate
ratification drawn up by the Philadelphia
Chamber of Commerce
The petition directly is addressed to
our own senators, Penrose and Knox.
The former has been, as rule, cautiously
retcent about the treaty. Mr.. Knox,
however, has suggested variety of i'm
possible expedients for avoiding the in
evitable. That none of these has been
adopted and that his observations on the
severity of the pact upon Germany have
evoked little or no popular sympathy
is cause for satisfaction.
There can be no question, moreover,
that in taking an explicit stand on the
subject the Chamber of Commerce is rep
resenting the common sense of the COM
munity. That the membership of this
group of petitioners is chiefly Republican
is but another proof of the idiocy of
injecting partisan principles into the
treaty tie-up. The politicians of both
parties can play various games with a
certain amount of skill, but when it
comes to unsettling industry and trade
to satisfy personal spite or feed fat an
cient grudges, the leaders in this sort
of folly are inviting disaster.
In saney and specifically urging a
prompt raising of the present deadlock
the Chamber of Commerce is setting e
wholesome example. 1t should be a stim-
illus for other significant organizations in
this city to speak out with equal frank
ness

EVERY INCH A SOLDIER

MARSHAL JOFFRE continues to live
Al "in character" One certain mark of
great soldier is his generosity in meas
uring the ability of his foe. The savior
of France credits General Won Kluck
with "masterly tactics" in saving the
German army after the defeat on the
Marine.
This strictly professional tribute is
worth a whole parade of bombastic de-
fenses "a la Ludendorff" by the Teu-
tons themselves. 1t reveals the marshal
as unafraid of realities, which is one of
the very reasons why his strategy and
determination barred the way to Paris.
II is men of the type of Joffre who
will be among our best sources of en-
lightenment upon the warmly the orig
inal German plans failed and why the
struggle afterward was so protracted.

THE REcEDING OASIS

TNHE second Supreme Court decision on
= prohibition is in line with the first
The court decided some weeks ago that
IT was within the war power of Congress
to pass as war measure an act forbid
ding the manufacture and sale of intoXi-
eating liquor. p 1t has now decided that
Congress has power to define what an
Intoxicating liquor is. This means that
the Volstead act forbidding the sale of
beverages containing more than one-half
of 1 per cent of alcohol is valid.
The latest decision was made by the
narrow majority of one vote, d majority
so small that it is not safe to conjecture
what decisions will be made when the in
! depreciation of the legislation enforcing
the prohibitory amendment to the consti-
tuition is made.
Justice McReynolds, in a dissenting
opinion, insisted that the prohbitcry
amendment was not yet in force and>that
as the emergency which justified the pro-
hibitory legislation had passed, Congress
had no power to interfere with the maau-
facture and sale of liquor. This opinion,
however, ayails nothing. Even if it had
been held by a majority of the court, it
would have permitted the sale of liquor
for less than two weeks.
The only hope of the "wets' lies in a
future decision of the court that the
provision in the amendment granting
concurrent power to Congress and the
Legislatures of the states to pass enforc-
ing legislation shall validate state laws
permitting the sale of liquor with more
than one-half of | per cent of alcohol.

HARDlNG'S FRANK ANSWER

SENATOR HARDlNG'S explanation in
~ response TO a labor union inquiry of
the reasons for his support of the anti
strike provisions of the Cummins rail
road bill is admirable for its frankness.
The labor unions are opposed to the
Cummins bill and they are particularly
hostile to it's anti-strike section.
Senator Harding believes in the bill
and in its labor provisions and he has
the courage to say SO with directness
that cannot be misunderstood. He says
that if the government representing
all the people, cannot guarantee trans
portation under any and all conditions, it
fails utterly and that if the same govern
ment cannot provide just consideration
of the workmen operating the transport
tation lines, it fails again. He points
out that the government itself is the
lawful agent of justice, and he declares
that if our present-day civilization can
not find a plan TO avoid industrial con-
flicts III a public service under strict
governmental regulation without resort
TO wasteful warfare and suffering, then
our civilization is less advanced than
VIC have supposed.
The senator's reply makes labor's op-
position to the Cummins bill appear to
be based either on distrust of the ability
of the government to serve as an instru-
ment of justice or upon a desire to get
such hold upon the transportation in
dustry as will compel it to submit to the
dictation of the unions.
The senator is diplomatic enough. how
ever, to announce that if a better plan
for securing justice is suggested by the
labor unions he will be glad to support it.

DILLOW your head upon my shoulder SD
l. Look in my face, to yours I'm bending
low;
And love, love sweetest, for Loves moments
go.
Lean back your head until our lips shall meet
In one long kiss, that shall the moments fleet
Stay in the hurry of their swift retreat.
Let your head rest so that your scented hair
Strays on my cheek, and straying, trcmbes
there;
Like some bright web aquiver in the air.
Lean back your head so that mine eyes
shall gaze
Deep into yours: and love, for Loves own
ways
Alone are sweet in all our length of days
Clasp your soft arms, and walled Kingdom
make
For us to dwell; and of thy mercy's sake
Love me, ah love, lest Time us overtake,
Look, love, our breath in the still evening air
Rises as one, and rising, mingles there.

signing breath, contentment scarce content:
All, heart of mine! when Loves short hour

What shall our life have for its ornament!
