Members Of the commission. II is
known. feel that a reduction in rates
IS now possible since railroad earn
ings are increasing. There is a be-
lief that reduction would stimulate
business and the reduction not be

President Harding has been
strongly urging the commission to
expedite its decision. He feels that
a rate reduction is imperative before
a real industrial and economic re.
covery can come IN full force.
To just what commodities the ex-
pected rate reductions will apply is
not known definitely. It IS probable
the cuts will affect rates on coal
steel, many farm and manufactured

TURNED IT BACK TO BAKER
Chinese Dairy Farmer Had Good Ex- cuse for Selling Hls Product
 Without Using Scales.

A dairy farmer living in small town was recently summoned to ap- pear before the local magistrate on a charge of selling butter under weight.
 The complainant was the village baker who felt he was being wronged when he discovered that every pound of the farmers butter fell below the weight that a pound ought to be.
 Have you pair of scales?' asked the magistrate of the farmer.
 ''Yes, your honor"
 And weightsY'
 No, your honor, I have no weights, ,
 You have no weights! How, then, can you weigh your butter?"
 @That is very simple, your honor. Since the baker has bought his butter from me, l buy my bread from him, and his one-pound loaves serve ne as weights to weigh my butter. If the butter does not weigh what it should, it is the bakers fault, and not mine, you see."-North China Herald.

 This agreement is dated January 2d, 1921.
 Ia the Chita documents under date of January s, 1921, the Japanese mili- tary mission in Paris cables the Tolzio ministry as follows:
 we have arrived at a satisfactory agreement with the French regarding the evacuation of Wrangei (anti-Bol- sheyik Russian troops kept by the French at Constantinople) The Freach cannot support the army any longer. The situation is very dif1. cult, and the French wish to use it for their benefit.

 Just think for a moment. Lydia D. Pinkhan's Vegetable Compound has been in use for nearly fifty years. It is prepared from medicinal plants, by the utmost pharmaceutical skill. and supe- rSpr methods. The ingredients thus cunnbined in the Compound correct the cpnditi0fls which cause such annoying symptoms as had been troubling Mrs. Seholz. The Vegetable Compound exer- ctses restorative influence of the most desirable character, correcting the trou- ble in a gentle but efficient manner. This is noted, by the disappearance, one after another, of the disagreeable symptoms.
