|. 900 PETITIONS
AGAINST JAPS

SACRAMENTO, June ). - One
thousand initiative petitions to place
an amended anti-Japanese land act on
the November ballot are now in cir
culati0n in California, according to
II. T. Rasmussen, organizer Of the
California Oriental Exclusion League.
While the first petitions were put
in circulation only week ago, thous-
ands of signatures already have been
secured. said Rasmussen. They are
being obtained at a greater rate than
was anticipated, and before many
weeks it is expected the number ne
cessary to qualify the measure will
have been obtained.
The league sent a petition to
Walter Stingley, of Susanville, Las
sen county. and within an hour and a
half after it was received in the mail.
the petition had been completely
filed in. and some voters even insist
ed on signing between the lines.
Al recent convention Of the grand
lodge, Knights of Pythias of Califor-
MIA. a strong anti-Japanese resolution
was adopted The resolution urges
the lawmakers of the land to enact
laws that will close the gates of
America to any assimilable race
and further states American citizens
would be derelct in their duty if they
! neglected to use every effort to dis
courage the practice of employing
japanese servants in their homes, or
patronizing japanese produce grow
ers or merchants.
The resolution also calls attention
to the fact the Japanese "have gained
a foothOld in our country and are
spreading like cancer over our land,
securing the choicest parcels of Amer
lean soil, thereby robbing our child
ren Of their just rights"

Bryant Washburn has injected his
breezy personality into TOO Much
Johnson" William Gillctte's well
known farce The result is highly
enjoyable screen comedy. II is being
shown at the Palace airdome and the
ater Sunday.
Mr.. Washburn is such a jovill oul
that he could probably star in The
Congressional Record" and make a
lively picture out of it. No such de-
mands are made upon his talents in
the Gillette play, which abounis in
irth-provoking incidents and seems
built especially for the comedy star.
And it's material and atmosphere are
as up-to-date as if it had been writ
ten yesterday, instead of % yea,s ago.
The story is about Augustus Bu-
lings, inOrdinatelv fond of yachting
but compelled to forego the sport on
account of the demands of married life
and an irascible mother-in But
when he is invited on a cruise hy a
flirtatious French woman. he canno:
'esist accepting her invitation. invent
ng a business trip to Mexico a. an
abb. But his wife and her mother
ret suspicious and decide to accom-
)any him. That necessitates q change
n plans and leads to a humorous m"ys,
involving q miX-up in names, bad
empered overseer of Mexican oil prop
,rty and a vengeance seeking FrnnlL-
nan. Billings finally succeeds not
>nly in extricating himself. but marry
ng off the mother-in-law to the OYe:-
eer.
"Too Much Johnson" is mighty good
'un. Lois Wilson, as the lealinG wom-
n, is as delectable as ever. Adele
Darlington and Monte Blue are also
the cast. 1t is Paramount Al i
raft film directed by Donald Crisp.

Anaernia.

knaemia, which means lack OF
blood, may be produced either by a
deficiency in the quantity OF the blood
or by its poor quality, and il may be
either primary or secondary. For
example, a person in good health may
encounter some sudden accident that
results in great loss Of blood, and for
that reason may suffer from the typ
known a. secondary anaemia All
those persons who suffer from hem
orrhages, whatever the underlying
cause, are likely to be anaemic, simply
because they are losing blood faster
than they can make it up. All suffer
ers from disease anywhere in the body
that produces septic conditions are
generally anaemic, generally the quail
ity of the blood is constantly vidated
| by the slow poisoning that is con-
| tinually going on.
This state of poisoning may be pro-
duced not only by such grave disor-
dcrs as Brght's disease, or by the
assesses of hip-joint disease or other
tuberculous states, but also by the
assesses that form at the roots of
teeth and sometimes go unrecognized
for months and years, by infected ton
sis, and by sinus trouble, which fol-
lows a severe cold or an attack OF in
huenza.
Sometimes a person who has had an
attack of grippe from which he con-
sidcrs himself to have recovered re-
mans unduly pallid and suffers con-
stantly with a discharge from the
nose. In such a case, especially if il
is complicated by headaches, sinus
trouble should Ne supected and track
ed down. 1t is a waste of time in
such a case to treat the accompanying
anacmia with iron tonics, or any
thing else, until the focus of poison
| has been cleaned up.
Besides the reasons for anacmia
given above, all disorders that inter
fere with the proper nutrition of the
body will bring about an anaemiC
COnlluOn. CnlOTOSlS II FORM OF
anaemia that affects young girls, and
that is rarely seen after the twenty
fourth year. The sufferers are gener-
ally quite plump but of a markedly
grecnsh-white pallor. They are apt
to be nervous, short of breath and
constipated, and to have swollen
ankles, especially at the end of the
day. This is not fatal disorder and
can be cured by treating the consti-
pated condition and by administering
iron. Pernicious anaemia is a dire
and usually fatal type, which attacks
the middle-aged. Most physicians at
tribute it to some form Of septic
poisoning.

Catarrh Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
lhere is only one way TO cure catar-
rhal deafness, and that is by a con-
Stitutlonal remedy. Catarrhal Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condi-
ton OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflaned you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when il is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result
Unless the inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube resored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Many cases Of deaf
ness art caused by catarrh, which is
an intiamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine
acts thru the blood on the mucous sur.
faces of the system.
