Louisville, KY, June 1. Mrs.
F. C. Spanyer, formerly an emer-
gency nurse at the city hospital, is
another well-known Louisville nurse
who recommends the use Of Tru-
tona, the, Perfect Tonic. Like
others, Mrs. Spanyer not only backs
her claims regarding Trutona with
several years experience as nurse,
but she has also taken the Perfect
Tonic and knows from actual ex-
perience just what it will do.
To read the following statement
of Mrs. Spanyer is to become con.

digestion so bad that l could hard

ache frequently and often had
headaches which would be accom-

out all the time, too, and could

you was in awful shape"
81 was formerly an emergency
nurse at the city hospital and 1

Well sir, ! guess that's why the

II do hope that other people. who !

Trutona is sold in Hartford, KY,
at Jams H. Williams, and in Beaver

ABOUT THE LATE NEoKwEAR
Separate Collars, Scarfs, Net FriIls.l
Jabot RufIies, Ribbons and
and Beads I'm Favor
This is a season Of neckwear.

The shops are full of lovely
separate" collars, and that, of
course, is an indication of the style
for separate bits of white and color
ed neckwear.
There is, perhaps, nothing new
that might be used for neckwear.
Within the last few years we have
used batiste and handkerchief linen,
organdie and net, lace and crepe de
chine, tulle and embroidery. These
things are still used, all of them, for
neckwear. 1t is just the way they
are used that makes them seasonal
BILE.
For one thing, there are batik
scarfs of silk this season. They are
lovely in color and design.
Then there are lovely waistcoats
of brocaded and embossed ribbons.
Net frills are fastened on the edge
of organdie collars and jabots.
Fine handkerchief linen is heavily
embroidered in satin stitch.
Sheer, cobwebby lace is used to
form jabot ruffles, attached to high
collars. that suggest the beruffled
shirts of the dandies of bygone days.
Not exactly neckwear, but in these
days sensibly classed with it, be-
cause it all goes to produce the
right effect at the neck finish of the
bodice, is the bead chain. Some
new ones are made of ribbon and
beads. The ribbon forms the CEN
ter part of the chain, and at each
end of the ribbon, a strip perhaps
of yard long. there
is attached a chain of beads.

MINING MARGIN IN
STATE SMALL

Washington. May 2S.-One' hun
dred and six coal operators in Ken
lucky has an average margin of 40
cents a ton during January, 1920,
and an average margin of 20 cents
during February, which is compared
with a margin of ~ cents during
1918, according to data made pub
lie by the Federal Trade Commits
sion.
Operators realize an average of
$3.50 a ton on January production
at a mine cost of $2.20; an average
of s2.63 on February production at
a mine cost of S2.34 and an average
of sass on the 1918 production
with an average mine cost of $1.S6.
The 1918 figures do not include
selling expenses. interest on invest
ment, including borrowed capital;
allowances for income and excess
profits taxes; nor profit on the in
vestment.
The margin which is the differ
ence between the sales realization
and the mine cost by the ton must
not be confused with what often is
called profit, it is pointed out.
Selling expenses, interest. income
an excess profits taxes, as we'll as
other items, must be deducted from
the margin before net profits from
mining operations available for divi-
dends or surplus can be determined.
Production of these l06 mines in
Kentucky average 1,196,345 tons
monthly during 1918. the data show.
Production in January of this year
was l. 237,49S tons, an increase of
per cent over the average monthly
production of 1918 and in February
this year was 99s.47s tons a de-
crease of 16~per cent over the aver
age monthly production of 1918.
