The wear and tear on the sys-

The symptoms are quickly recog-

your energy and vigor. You can
not afford to take the chances of
facing a hard winter with its perils
of disease. while your vitality is be-

Many human ailments are due
to some impurity in the blood sup

blood sluggish. cause you to lose
your energy, and unless thoroughly

BREWS CRISIS
Threat Expected to Bring
British Production to

Service, Special Cable DispntchD

London, Sept 4.-Attcntion in
England is concentrated upon ;he
decision Of miners in Great Britain
10 throw down their tools Scptem-
Der -.
They have the approval and sup
port Of railwaymen and transport
workers in their demands for in
crease in wages and a reduction IN
the home price OF coal. The miners
demands are opposed by a section
Of orga uiZed labor and there is still
hope that mOderatinE counscls may
prevail.
The miners are willing that the
mines be paid for at reasonable
prices. Corfscation is no part Of
their program. A strike at the
present time must have very serr-
Gus consequences. 1t will greatly
reduce the British exports just
when need is great to get money
to pay for heavy imports of wheat
and cotton.
A strike, therefore. may thus
cause a heavy fall in the value OF
tn" pound. In turn this must affect
tho exchange values of all CONT
rental currencies. which are in some
measure supported by the facilities
which the British bankers have
given to enable manufacturer and
merchants to sell their products.
In case of strike. continental
buyers will not be in a position 10
import normal amounts of food,
cotton and other goods. These
commodities may consequently ac-
Cumulatc in abnormal quantities on
farms. plantations. elevators, ware
houses and factories.
Thus the world seems to be faced
by q financial crisis which exces-
Sive creation OF banking credit a I'd

vcstors rendered iEcvitable. For.
tunately, the world economic con-
ference will be convened by the
