BLAME MIDDLEMEN
FOR COAL BOOST

Local coal dealers blame the mid
dleman for the present high price
OF coal. In speaking OF the recent
increase Of prices in the pea and
other sizes OF hard coal. p. p. Free
man. of the Freeman Coal Company,
said:
I'VE had TO make the increase
when we were compelled 10 meet
increases made by the jobbers. in
some instances as much as 81 and
81 ton"
Mr.. Freeman explained that in view
of the present difficulty in getting a
steady supply OF coal. his concern
and others were forced TO pay tine
middleman or jobber the increase
or go without coal.
"Te realized that 3. was better to
have coal even at a high price than
to have none at all. The 12is-cent
increase made at the mines is 5ust
the beginning. we are not buying
our coal directly from the mines
and those between the mines and
ourselves have made increases" Mr..
Freeman added.
The same view was expressed by
other dealers, among them Charles
VI. Grubb, Of Twenty-frst and Mar
ket stree,s. The price tS us has
been increased much more than the
increase at the mines" Mr.. Grubb
said. THAT is only the beginning.

LITTLE EVELYN Liable
DROWNED NEAR HOME

Evelyn Liable, the little three
and one half daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Leon Liable of Coven-
try street, was drowned yesterday
afternoon between four and five
O'Clock in the shallow water near
their home.
The body was recovered within
a few minutes but though DR.. l..
M. Petite and DR.. H. &. Somers
worked for some time all efforts
at resuscitation were futile.
No one witnessed the accident,
hat it is thought that the little
girl tried to follow her father, who
had just driven out of the yard,
and she was not missed for a little
while. The lake is very high and
the water has reached within q
few feet of the Liable home, and
it can only be surmised that the
child either stumbled and fell into
the water, or that the soft earth
gave way and she fell in.

FOR A CONSTIPATED CHILD
A small dose of DR.. CaldwelIs
Syrup Pepsin will bring
quick relief.

MOTHER, when one of the
N1 children is constipated are
you going to give the first lax
alive within reach? 1t is dam
gerous to do so. Some have
been known to rupture the
intestines of little children.
Don't be beguiled by the out
side sugary appearance. Look
into the formula. Calomel is
seldom necessary; salts,
minerals, coal tar, never!
Unlike these, DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is admirable for
children, as it is for grown
people. too. Mothers have
been giving it to children for
80 years. They know it does
not grippe, and is free from
narcotics. The formula is on
every package, and you can
see it is vegetable, just a COM
bination of Egyptian SIENNA and
other laxative herbs with pep
