 Finally, the attending physician told the despairfng mother that he could do nothing more that the child must die. Fortunately Mrs. McCartney's fa: ther, A. T.

 The effect was rnar,e1ous. In an interview granted to. a Times Tribune reporter last evening, pursuant to an inquiry from the MfIks Emulsion Co. to whom Mrs. Mccartney had sent letter Of appreciation, she said that in three days after taking the remedy. her boy was able to walk with her aid. After taking ten bottles, he was wholly restored to health. In substandation of her story the reporter was shown a snap shot of Paul aftar he had uS1Q tNe ehuiSIou IlreG --yiS was 9. mere bag Of benes. as the saying goes. pilful figure with skin drawn taut over the bones.
 Then in contrast, the mother called to hercson who Vas engaged in stren- uous play on the street, and in came a lad vibrant with health and cheeks glowing like the rose. All this in spite of the ultimatum by physician "that he might as well take so much lard" according to the mothers statement! Mrs. Mccartney sent her letter to the company in the hope, that other mothers could learn of this remedy. what it did for her son, and perhaps receive from it the same invaluable boon. She called the attention of the reporter to a bottle of the emulsion which ever has the place of honor on the buffet and to which she says. re- course is had every tim, any member of the family complains of not feeling well.

In the United States, while the num-
ber erected during 1920 will probably
turn out to have been even smaller
than that figure.
WAGE FARMERS HIT.
while 1t Is true that there are
many houses for sale, these are all
now occupied by tenants. The num-
Der of houses for rent in most COM
munities is practically nil and the
majority Of these houses are not suit
able for the needs of the average
wage Garner. A man with an income
Of $4,000 year or more doesn't have
quarters as the wage Garner who can
not afford to pay high rents. The
wage Garner and those earning small
salaries are the ones who are hit
hardest by the housing shortage. 1t
Is for these folks that decent homes
must be built.
Meanwhile they. as well as many
with large incomes are doubling up
or taking In dodgers. Increased
rents, too, have caused many families
to share their quarters with outsiders,
so we have the anomaly of block or
an apartment house containing
larger number OF people than II ever
did In the past, yet with an occasional
house or apartment vacant because
those needing better quarters can't
afford to pay any higher rents. This
overcrowding of rooms is viewed with
anxiety by the public health officials,
who realize how infectious diseases
spread under such conditions.
