 The police made no attempt to in terefere and the marchers attempted no violence.
 Meanwhile the labor organizations have served an ultimatum on the government, giving it three days in which to reduce the prices on neces- sities From the temper of the marchers the threat of labor may be followed by action and it is believed that assaults may be made on the stores and provision houses.
 The flight of the profiteers left many stores closed with windows and doors barred, but these would have small effect on the mob if it should decide to begin a reign of footing.

Physician Believes a Real Remedy for

Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism

thrown off in a natural, healthy way.

most careful investigation of the for
mula employed in the manufacture of
Rheuma, and l heartily recommend it
