SOMETHING new TO MOTHER
Dear Old Lady Had a Good Deal to
Learn About the Latest Idea
in Silk Stockings.

Styles may come and styles may 60,
but an old-fashioned mother like
Bab's can't be expected to keep
abreast with the latest creations. She
is always looking after the welfare
of the family, whether 1t is preparing
fathers choice dish or skimping her
own needs so that Johnny or Bah may
keep up appearances with the twenti-
eth century younger set.
Mother recently vas going over the
weeks washing,e putting a patch here,
catching a button there and seeing
to it that the stockings were care
fully mended. She came across a
pair of stockings that Bah had pur;
chased the week before. They were
the latest thing dictated by fashion,
the isle stocking with lace designs on
the sides, which very much resembles
the lowly run"
"And bless you, mother sewed up
every one Of them," giggled Bah to
a friend, a few days later, land they
cost me 50 a pair, too"

After Ten Years
Eatonic Proves the Best

II say, God bless eatonic," writes
Mrs. Della NJ. Doyen. II can truth
fully say, after. suffering with stomach
trouble for ten long years, that I have
never had anything do me so much
good as this n box of eatonic."
We print these grateful words from
this dear lady, so that sufferers every.
where may have hope aud a little
faith-just enough to give eatonic a
trial. Why, folks, last gear over half
a million people used eatonic and
found relief.
This is the secret: Eatonic SIM
ply takes up the excess acids. poisons
and gases, and carries them right o2t
Of the body. OF course, when the
cause is removed, the sufferer gets
we'll. Stomach trouble causes about
seventy non-organic diseases. so, If
you are suffering any kind Of misery,
not feeling we'll, go right to your drug
gist today and obtain a big box Of
eatonic; cost is a trifle. Use it and
find quick, sur relief.
Make this test-you will see, and
then, If you are not satisfied, you
druggist will hand your money back
He does not want one penny unless
eatonic pleases you. Adv.

BEEF PRICES VARY WIDELY
Federal Bureau of Markets Reports
Erratic 1920 Scale.

Washington. - Unusual fluctuations
in the price Of dressed beef occurred
during the first six months of his
year, says a report of the United
States Bureau of Markets. Starting
with a top price Of sol for good beef
in January, sharp and cratic price
charged marked trading throughout
the period, with the low top price of
$17 recorded during the last week in
May and the high point, $31, made on
June %, an increase of $14 u hundred
pounds in 80 days.
A series of unavoidable events. most
Of them resulting from abnormal con-
ditions produced by the war, contrib
uted to the phenomenal price trends,
the report says. Among the principal
disturbing influences described are
periodical releases by the war depart
ment Of surplus stocks Of beef in an
effort to reduce living costs, higher
stocker and feeder markets, high
priced feeds, fruition Of producers eff
forts to increase cattle production for
war needs and anticipated foreign de-
mands, labor troubles, decreased trans
portation facilities, e%mbargoes, unset
tied foreign credit and exchange con-
ditions, decrease in beef exports, finan-
c1al credit restrictions, declines in
prices Of hides, tallow, and other ami.
NAL by-products and decreased or
spasmodic consumption of meat.
Prices Of livestock in the Chicago
market and those paid for dressed
%carcasses as taken from New York
quotations from 10 days to two weeks
after the live cattle transactions also
showed wide fluctuations, the report
asserts.
The difference of 1925 per 100
pounds between prices for good beef
steers and the corresponding grade Of
dressed carcases in January was Wild
ened until it stood Mt $14.5O during the
closing days of June. For the same
period the difference between the low
price Of medium sters on the hoof and
in the carcass had advanced from 1928
to $12.75.

September I To Bring a Great
Increase In Railroad Trans.
portation Costs.
TO MEET HIGHER WAGE
Freight Schedules Raised IS to 40 Per
Cent, Passenger Fares 20 Per
Cent, Pullman Fares so
Per Cent.

Observation-Disclosures Of 40 per
cent in railroad freight rates in the
east, 25 per cent in the south, 35 per
cent in the west, and 25 per cent in
the Mountaineering territory have
been granted by the interstate COM
merce commission.
Passenger fares We're increased 20
per cent, the amount asked by the
railroads, to help in absorbing the
$6O0,0O0,O0 wage increase granted by
the railroad labor board.
A s%urcharge Of 80 per cent on rates
for sleeping and parlor cars was
granted, together with 20 per cent in
the rates on excess baggage and 20
per cent in the rates on milk.
Effective on Five Days Notice.
The increases may become effective
upon five days notice given by the
carriers to the commission and the
public, and they must be put into ef-
feet before January /, 1921. Since the
government guarantee to the roads
expires September 1, it is generally
expected that the advances will be put
into effect before hat date and con-
tinue until March !, 1929.
In arriving at the increases, the
commission placed the valuation of
the railroad properties at $1S,900,O0O,-
600, as against the $2O.G16, 100000 esti-
mate of the railroad executives.
The increases granted by the com
mission are estimated by it as suffi-
cicnt to absorb the recent wage in
crease awarded by the railroad labor
board which the commission placed Mt
SG1S,O00,00O and to bring the net in
come Of the carriers to the 5H per
cent permitted under the %transporta-
ton act.
The commission authorized the ap.
plication Of the general increase to the
rates on commodities. Special rates
have heretofore prevailed and the
charges, therefore, will be increased
according to the percentage ordered in
the various groups.
