RALEIGH. N. c.. April 17.-.Most

come a member Of any overall club, .
declared Gov. Beckett. when asked il
he would become member of the
overall organization that is being
formed by federal and railroad ON
ployes here. "There is no good in IL.
and there is positive harm. 1t will
run the prices of overalls up to a
figure that cannot be paid by those
who OF necessity must wear them"
The governor continued:
Il would agree not to pay more
than IS for hat. You can get a
decent hat for that sum. 1 would
agree not to pay more than $3.50
for a pair of shoes, nor more than SO
for shirt, $40 for a suit Of clothes,
50 cents for a pair OF sox and 20
cents for collar. I think that men,
bers of such a club ought to agree
not to buy an automobile until prices
have dropped rs per cent So long
as people are willing to pay any price
for the things they want and are not
willing to practice self-denial. all
talk about cutting down the high cost
of living is gable"

STREET CAR FARE RAISE
COSTS P. O. $4,000 A YEAR

An increase of $4,000 in the annual
street car ticket bill of the Washing
ton city post Office was forecast by
City Postmaster Chance. as the result
Of the order raising the tickets to four
for 30 cents.
Owing to the recent raise in street
car fare. the city post office largely re-
sorted to conveying letter carriers to
their routes in motor vehicles of the
office. Despite this saving, 1t Is still
necessary to use between $4,000 and
$4,000 worth Of tickets year for the
use OF carriers.
Additional hardship will be worked
on scores of letter carriers. who will
have to pay from their own pockets
80 cents for car tickets to get to and
from their work. it was explained to-
day.
After carriers have completed their
morning delivery they go home to
breakfast" and this requires car
ticket from the end of their route and
another back to the main city post
office. Thus. in many cases, these two
tickets will be added to the two the
carrier must spend to get to work in
the morning and go home at night.

by recognized authorities. Accord
ing to all excepted reference works,
including the U. S. Dispensatory,
Encyclopedia Britannica, and the
leading textbooks used in the
schools of medicine, the principal
ingredients of Tanlac possess the
most powerful reconstructive prop
critics known to science. This state
ment is further proven by the fact
that millions Of persons who have
actually taken Tanlac have testified
to its extraordinary powers as
medicine.
Tanlac C restores health and
strength to the weak and rundown
system by enabling every organ of
the body to perform it's proper func-
tlon in the way nature intended. 1t
creates good, healthy appetite for
wholesome, nourishing food, and is
an ideal strengthening tonic for per-
sons who are in a rundown condi-
tion and who are suffering from the
after-effects of hard winter colds,
grippe, or bronchial troubles.
1rrefutable evidence of the re-
constructive powers of Tanlac is
shown by the fact that it was used
by tens of thousands during last
years epidemic with splendid re-
suits. One well-known Texas ply
sician stated that he had never
found anything to equal Tanlac for
building up his patients who had

Much of the difficulty expert
enced by health authorities in check
ing the spread of Influenza lies in
the fact that it spreads with almost
lightning rapidity. Although state
and city authorities have succeeded
in keeping it under control in some
sections, the disease has gotten en-
tirely beyond control in others.
1t is universally agreed by all
well-informed persons that the
surest preventive is to get the sys-
tenn into the best possible physical
condition, in order to be able to
throw off the infection. 1t has been
stated that it is possible to perfect
the powers. of human resistance so
that it can throw off almost any
infection, not excepting Spanish In
fluenza, which is generally supposed
to be one of the most contagious
diseases known.
Medical authorities agree that
people who are weak and rundown
are the earliest victims of the In
fluenza epidemic. If you find your
self weak and losing flesh, or if
you are in a generally rundown

Science has proved that the body
is only collection of cells and that
Nature requires twelve cell-salts to
keep the cells of the body in per-
feet health.
It has been demonstrated that
these cell-salts not only build,
nourish and repair the cells, but
govern the health and vitality of
the tissue, nerve, blood, bone and
brain, of which the cells are a part.
Exhaustive laboratory tests and
the clinical experience of many
years have demonstrated that the
health of the human body depends
entirely upon the Red Blood Cells
which carry in their hemoglobin
the oxygen that is absolutely es-
sential to human life.
These cell-salts attract and retain
the oxygen as it passes from the
lungs into the blood, and by their
presence in the cells repair, nour-
ish, revitalize and maintain the
vigor, vitality, health and energy of
the cells, of the blood, tissues,
nerves, veins, arteries, bones,
muscles and brain.

C COOPERATION n
BY AD men
TO BOOST OMAHA
General Manager Of Bee
And Chicago Salesman
Tell Needs of Unity
For City.

Philip J. Sodergren OF Mallory,
Mitchell and Faust, advertising and
merchandising, Chicago; and Charles
5. Young, vice president and gener-
al manager OF The Bee Publishing
Co., were the principal spea kers at
the weekly dinner and meeting OF
the Advertising Selling league at
the Hotel Fontenclle last night.
MIR. Sodergren declared that ad-
vertising tends to standardlze goods,
and in this way stabilizes the mar
ket.
"Advertising, in stabilizing the
market, serves to increase produc-
ton" he said, "and increased pro-
duction on the farms means great
er retail business in Omaha or any
other city.
Lack of Responsibility.
There is a closeness of rela ton
ship between the city and firms
within the city which cannot be
ignored. When you boost Omaha
you are boosting your concern.
There is sad lack of individual
responsibility toward the city, the
community and even the country
itself, and this is one cause of
economic unrest. Boost Omaha
and boost your business"
Mr.. Young reviewed some of his
events in Omaha 80 years ago, when
he was reporter on the Bee. When
the building now occupied by the
Bee was built it was ON the out
skirts of the town, he said, while
now it is fairly in the heart of the
city.
in those days the advertising
man was considered pretty closely
associated with the highwayman."
Mr.. Young declared, and his audi
ence, composed mostly of advertis.
ing men, laughed heartily. But
times have changed, and | believe
one of the most important changes
has been the purchase of the Bet
