Gaudreau says that at II o'clock one
night, two weeks ago, he started alone
across Boston Commoa. He remem

later, he regained consciousness in a
Boston hospital. He learned afterward
that, although his mind was blank,
he had during this period murmured

he was discharged from the hospital,

Gaudreau says he was told at the

had been robbed of a little money he
was carrying, and believes il to have
been the work of professional hold-up

MAY BUY ABROAD.
American Wooden Co. Proposes Radi-
cal Move.


Boston. Sept. I2.-The American
Wooden company may import manu-
featured goods from Germany and 9th
er European countries where costs are
lower than in the mills here. Presi-
dent William NJ. Wood, on his return
to his desk to-day from trip to En-
rope, said he expected a report within
day or two covering their possibility
from Chester l.. Dane, president of TIE
American Wooden Products company,
subsidiary, who has Just completed
an independent investigation of condi-
tions abroad.
Expectation of manufactured wool
ems from the United States is out Of
the question under existing economic
conditions" Mr.. Wood said. with this
In mnds Mr., Dane went abroad to
study European conditions and see
what could be done to keep his organ
liza ton alive. 1t must be realized
that Europe. especially Germany, is
making goods at costs far below ours.
Trade follows the price, not the Nag.
These products are going to come to
this country anyhow. We want to
find out to what extent it is practical
and desirable that we take part in this
trade"
Should it be decided that such a
venture was a promising one, the
American Wooden Products company
would, so far as operations in the
United States are concerned, change
from an exporting TO an importing
organization. 1t would also market
the output of European mills in South
America or anywhere else in the world
that it might find buyers, Mr.. Wood
said.
He would not discuss report that
President Dane had already secured
options on the product Of mills in Ger
many, CzechO-Sloyskia and Austria
until he bad heard from Mr.. Dane.
Mr.. Dane later said there was no
proposal 10 bring into this country
any goods that might eompete with the
products of the company's mills. There
are certain products Of foreign coun-
tries made at low prices that are not
produced here and it is in such goods
only that interest for American I'M
portation lies, he explained.
He had talked with mill interests in
Germany, Hungary and Czecho-Slovak
ia, he said, about disposing of their
products. but had not carried the mat
ter to the point of obtaining options.
Under the plan now being considered
goods would be bought in Czecho-Slo-
vakia, for instance. and sold in SoI,h
America or the far east 20 meet the
competition in those countries from
the low cost goods of other European
centers-
1T l. farthest from Mr.. Woods
thought or mine to do anything that
win bring European labor in competi-
ton with the people in our American
mills" he said.

VACCINATION FOR TYPHOID rs
GENERALLY APPROVED

The response throughout Kentucky
to the general warning against ty-

Board of Health, warning in which
universal vaccination against the
disease was advocated, has been most
encouraging to the State health au-
thorities, DR.. A. T. Mccormack,
State Health Oficer said.
In Daviess county, he mentioned
in illustration, ACT vaccinations
were performed last week and mote
than 5000 persons have been vacci-
mated during the season. DR.. G. w.
Duvall is County Health officer there.
In one section of the county, where
last year there was an outbreak of
the disease, 1,242 persons have been
inocculated and as a result of these
preventative measures not single
case has developed this summer.
Many other communities have re-
ported similarly encouraging facts.

CONGRESSMAN SEES DANGER IN
FUTURE RACE

A blue law" for girls was intro
duced in the House by Representa-
tive Herrick, Republican, Of Okla
homa.
Representative Herrick would
prevent girls from going into the
movies or on the stage. His bill
is designed to prohibit beauty con-
tests conducted by newspapers and
by film organizations.
"My motive for introducing this
BILL" said Mr.. Herrick, sis that the
young American woman of to-day is
drifting farther afield from home
life, ceasing to be interested in
maintaining home, being wife
and rearing a family.
"It is a notorious fact that the
population is de-
creasing and that the recent immi-
grants and their immediate Off
springs are increasing and that If
the same conditions continue for
another decade, America may be
converted into foreign country
with foreign ideas and ideals"

SHE WAS UNABLE
TO COMB HER HAIR
Louisville Woman Suffered From
Rheumatism For Twenty Three
Years.

During all of the years of my life,
and am now past seventy-five, I
have never SEEM or heard of a med
icine to equal Tanlac. Just a few
bottles have relieved me of a case
of rheumatism, nervousness and in
digestion that had troubled me for
twenty-three years" said Mrs. Mamie
Chappell, 31713 Fourth Street, LOU
isville, KY.
Sometimes my legs hurt me so !
couldn't walk and I couldn't raise
my hands to comb my hair. I had
several attacks every year aai
while they were on I could neither
get up nor down without help. My
appetite left me and everything I ate
disagreed with me.
"My son persuaded me to try Tan
lac and it's just wonderful the change
that came over me in short time.
/ feel like a different person now,
every sign of the rheumatism is
gone and / sleep sound all night
long. Tanlac is certainly fine
medicine for old people and I will
gladly tell anyone personally what
it has done for me"
When people grow to the ripe old
age of Mrs. Chappell their digestive
orans lack vitality and begin to aci
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation becomes
poor, the blood gets thin, the ap.
petite fails and the digestion weak
ems. Tanlac, the powerful recon
structive tonic, is the strength ane
body-builder for old folks, because
it creates an appetite, strengthen:
digestion and. in natural way
strengthens and invigorates rur
down, nervous and aged people.
Tanlac is sold by all leading drus
stores. (adv)

poat,a Tie Shop nAd."

A poet in whose breast the cares
Of collar and tie shop in Asakusa
cannot stifie the Parnassian urge has
written the following sign and placed
it over his masters shop to cheer the
passerhy:
"Those who belong to our company
are always endeavoring to express
their delicate mood and individuality
through the goods they are dealing
in. from the point of view of making
all existence best and most beautiful
first of all and then let themselves
upward from earth to paradise that IS
to say the eternal peace-the IDEAL
under the elapse of time"
What il means would be difficult to
say. While it draws attention to the
admirable qualities of the collars and
ties and garters, it also seems to in
dictate a little WEAKNESS with Asakusa
considered as stepping stone towards
"the eternal peace under the elapse of
time."-Japanese Advertiser.

TOLD GEORGE NOT TO WORRY
English Labor Leader Cared Little for
That divinity That Doth
Hedge King"

Kings have no longer any ruling
power in first-class nation A little
incident in which the king of England
figured last year may be told in CON
nectiOn with the new spirit of affairs.
The late VIII Crooks, labor member
of parliament. cOckney with big
black beard and devoid Of aitches. a
sincere and much loved man. as re-
mote from higlbrow socialists rs from
hidebOund conservatives was among
the fashionable crowd Of guests at
the royal garden party.
The king got him into conversation.
Will Crooks talked as freely To his
monarch ms he would to a follower in
the East end of London. Both men
were soon deep in the troublous times
which were upon England. The king
plainly showed his anxiety about the
future. viii Crooks who was the
most sympathetic soul in the world.
tried to reassure the king ms they shook
hands in good-by:' "Now. look here.
old chap; don't you go worrying about
things; everything is going to turn
out all right. old fellow"
There is cause for little specula-
ton in what must have been the men,
tai attitude of the mobiles and dignita-
rics clustered round as they observed
the familiarity. But what the king
thought of 1t is best expressed by the
fact that before the next garden party
he and the queen together sent a spe-
cial letter to VIII Crooks and his
wife, saying how much they wanted
them to he present.--Frank Dilmat In
