CATCHING COLD F.?
MINTOL OFTEN PREVENTS
PNEUMONIA

1t is surprising to read in the daily papers
of treatments that our forefathers and grand
mothers used for coughs colds catarTh and
bronchial affections. 1t impreSSeS the writer
with the fact that modern scientific research
had not advanced an iota, when, as a matter
of fact, there have been wonderful advance
ments in the treatment OF all diseases and con-
dtons that bring on disease. Just because
grandmother used od-fashioned mustard bis
tiers for relieving colds and congested conditions
it is no sane reason why we should resort to
the old Anticipated methods when there have
been such wonderful Improvements and new
discoveries of remedies which are far more
effective and less painful to use.
SPECIAL NOTICE:-A druggist said the
other day that a customer came into his store
and inquired for a mustard plaster and he
suggested to the customer that they try MIN
Toll as a more modern treatment for con-
gested conditions, The customer accepted the
druggists suggestion and in .twenty-four hours
the same customer came into the druggist and
said: How long have you handled MlNTOLF'
The druggist replied that he had been hand
ling il for some little time and the customer
frankly stated that he would never use mus
tard cream or plaster for colds, coughs or
any congested conditions again. There are
thousands of others who would say the same
as this druggists customer did, II they would
only try MINTOL. If your druggist cannot
supply you we will mail you a jar on receipt
of price, Sc, 60c, and $l.2S a jar. The Home

FROM ihe 1ribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov. II. - The net
operating income for September of the
class l railroads of the country fell
approximately $29,343, 900, or 269 per
cent, short Of the amount expected to
be earned under the increased rates,
according to a compilation completed
to day by the Bureal of Railway Ece-
nomlcs. The figure is based on reports
from i2O7 railroads of this class, having
4 total mileage of 237,899.
The net raiwa cooperating income for
september totaled $79,876,655, gain
Ct only 2.S per cent over that for the
same month in 1915. 1t was also only
Approximately S4,SOO,0O0 above the
standard returns which the railroads
would have received had they still been
Operating under guaranty provided for
them in the transportation act, but

earned on the tentative valuation made

lave been S1O9,220 ,OOO.
Total operating revenues for the POT
railroads amounted to $617, 1925 ,97s, or
an increase of 23.7 per cent over Sep

were $500, 9,013,974, or an increase Of

The compilation also shows that the

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-After two
months Of depression there has been
an upward turn in the automobile busi-
ness, both pleasure cars and trucks,
according to Alfred Reeves, general
manager of the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, who addressed
the Automotive Equipment Associa-

Along with other industries we have
had poor sales for two months, but
the automobile business is now NOV
ing upward,' Mr.. Reeves said pres
ent production is not averaging more
than 80 per cent, except in the case of
three of four factories. The full year,
however, will exceed all records, ap-
preaching 100000 cars and 100000

foundation of Winter Stocks
More Important Now;
Some May Be Held for
Sales Early in the Year

Retailers responses to the spring
.,enings In the mems clothing trade
sre reported to be exceedingly light
;r contrast to the rush for goods that
sressiled last year when new models
;ar spring 1920 we're first shown. So
Ar the showing Of spning samples by
r.nGfacturers is the exception rather
Asn the rule. More manufacturers in
chicago and Rochester are attempt
;ng to book spring business than are
he producers in the New York mar
let.
0vershadowing the spring business
;s the liquidation of surplus fall stocks
left in the hands Of manufacturers
through cancellations and returns at
iAs expiration Of the price guaranty on
suits this week. Some OF these so
called winter gooGs are being offered
a. attractive prices. and retailers are
tsking considerable quantities with the.
expectation of holding them over for
sale at the beginning Of the spring
retail season next year. The slight
difference in weight between winter
and summer goods permits the retail
ers to carry over much of the winter
merchandise being offered at conces-
sions now.
Spring prices IN general show re-
duction of about 80 per cent from the
levels at which clothing for last spring
opened the wholesale selling season.
These prices, according to trade lead
ers here. are by no means established.
More frequent "readjustmen.s" of
prices by wooden manufacturers are
unsettling the price calculations ap
Piled to finished garments. At least
dozen WOODEN mills have revised prices
on spring fabrics this week, lower
prices applying to goods already or

Is mess News
Retailers Response Slight
TO Spring Clothing Opening
Spring Shoe Orders
May Be Made Soon

Retailers of shoes will not delay
much longer in placing spring
orders, in the opinion of Arthur
Weiss, buyer and manager for
Cammeyer's, prominent retailers.
"Unless spring orders are
placed soon," said Mr.. Weiss,
"the manufacturers will not be
able to deliver spring shoes in
time for the retailers to make a
showing before Easter, when the
spring trade normally begins. /
don't think the retailers will
u place heavy orders, but they will
have to do some buying. Prices
are lower than they were when
orders for last spring were
placed, and the continual decline
in values has spurred the retail
ers in their efforts to rid them
selves of old stock to be carried
over into the next spring season
If they intend doing any business
at all they will have to place or
ders, as the manufacturers are
not making up goods for stock"

Selling ON Memorandum
Helms Push Cotton Good

A fairly large volume OF business is
being booked by some cotton goods
houses who are selling goods on
memorandum, price to be determined
at the date Of delivery This method
Of selling goods was employed by 81
few conyerters some time ago, spread
to the bleached goods business and now
is finding greater use among all
classes OF cotton goods sellers In
some quarters Of the trade it is be-
lieycd that this method of booking
orders will be the means of bringing
about the long expected revival Of
buying.
Lower prices on sheetinrs have been

Fair Amount of Buying
Reported in SDrino Silk

Many of the largest producers of silk
clo'h are now showing spring SAMPLES
and in some cases say they are booking
fair amount Of business, although
prices from the manufacturers stand
point are still decidedly unsatisfac-
tory. A new trend in the styling of
silks that stands out sharply is the eff
fort toward dull finishes. Special proc
essing is being used to dull the lustre
in satins and other normally glossy
fabrics. The pebbled effects of the
crepe fabrics are being attained in

Commercial Credit

Easier commercial money is working
into sight, and large commercial houses
report THAT it is easier to obtain ac-
commodations than It was q month
ago. Commercial paper rates, however,
are still maintained at their former
high levels, most paper being discount
Cd al 8 per cent. Bank pressure for
the liquidation of high inventories has
not been relaxed, and those concerns
that are carrying heavy stocks are said
by bankers to be experiencing difficult
ties in floating loans at present.
