KeepLOOkingYOung

Nobody wants to grow old looking
any faster than they can help; some
look old at forty while others don't
begin to show their age at seventy.
Everybody knows that to keep young
looking you have first got to be blessed
with good health, and second to do as
little worrying as possible. Most of
the ills that the flesh is heir to are
caused by disordered stomach, liver
or kidneys. These can be regulated
and kept in good condition by taking
SEVEN BARKS, natures great REM
edy of roots and herbs.
Digestive troubles also spoil beauty,
rob you of sleep, make dark rings
around the eyes and ruins the COM
plexion. Let SEVEN BARKS digest
your food and tone up your stomach,
then you may eat what you like;
bright eyes will soon return, and you
will feel fit for your daily duties.
Science says that old age begins with
weakened kidneys and digestive organs.
If you keep these organs cleansed and
in proper working order, old age can
be deferred and life prolonged beyond
the average age. No better remedy
can be found than SEVEN BARKS 10
keep the stomach, liver and kidneys in
good order, thus assuring you good
health.
Old-fashioned natures remedies are
the best so don't fail to keep 4 bottle
OF SEVEN BARKS on hand. Get it
at your druggists. Price, 90 cents. -

three years ago with her flight for

The story Of Miss Chobanian doesn't
differ in the main from similar refu-

near-East. She was five years old
when the Kurds attacked her village
burned and pillaged it and massacred
the inhabitants. The Chobanian fam
lily with the exception of tiny Helen
and her elder brother were killed and
the brother escaped on horseback with
his small sister in his arms. For
three weeks they continued their
flight, most of the time by night, across
the desert, and finally found safety
at Aloppo. Then they went to Eng

U. S. TO PROSECUTE
COAL PR0FITEERS
Attorney General Claims Car Short
age Has Been Used as Excuse
to Boost Prices.

Washington, June 17-At orney.
General Palmer has ordered a sweep
ing crusade looking to the trial and
conviction Of hi luminous operators
who have used the excuse of acr
shortage and export demand to boost
prices and take unreasonable profits
Instructions were sent today to
every United States Attorney in the
country to obtain the indictment of
any operator or dealer where investi-
cation shows unreasonable profits.
The Department of Justice has re-
ceived many complaints that the
prices OF bituminous coal at the mines
ranged from 81 to s11 ton, with a
further increase mminen. Wri ers
of the letters say the operators are
attributing the advanced prices 10 car
shortage and export demand, en-
phasis being placed upon the latter.
To learn the true export situation the
Acknowledgement held conferences re
Gently with the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the Shipping Board,
at which an export embargo was dis
cussed.
Governors of the New England states
were in conference today with mem
bers of the Interstate Commerce Com,
mission and the Shipping board on
the New England coal situation They
declared industries were on the verge
of closing down, with little prospect OF
getting in next winters supply. They
asked that New England coal be ship
ped by boat from Norfolk and the Ship
ping Board was asked for vessels
In the circular of instructions sent
to Government attorneys today The At
ltoTney General said.
Production cost figures gathered by
4 the Federal Trade Commission from
1889 bituminous coal operators in the
principal production regions, mining
roughly about so per cent, Of the an
Inual output, show that during Jan
Iuary. 1920, their costs averaged 1872
a ton at the mines. Since then there
has been an increase of " per cen,
lin the cost Of labor enhancing The pro
duction cost to S279 a ton. The aecur
cy of these figures is borne out by in
formation in letters coming to the De
partment from purchasers of coal. from
which it appears that prices IN May
did not greatly exceed those furnished
to the Federal Trade Commission fol
January.
This situation demands the prompt
