IN THE DAYS NEWS
The Hague.

The Hague.
 Where is S'Gravenhage? Give up?
 Perhaps you know it as Den Haag. No? We'll, it is only our old friend The Hague dressed in it's native costume. This uniquely labeled town, which is the only city of importance before whose 1 name we place the" in English, is still
 more oddly named when it's Dutch ap- pellation is translated, according to a bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geographic Society. The bulletin. which follows, is
 issued in connection with the approach ing conference at The Hague which will take up the unfinished work of the Genoa conference:
 ''S'Gravenhage, which is the proper name of the Dutch capital we call The Hague" says the bulletin, means something like the a-iga-enc!csed space of the Count Thi sterm was probably really descriptive m the early part of the thirteenth century when 1t was ap- | piled to a rural hunting lodge, but 1t hardly fits the present-day city. almost
 as large as Minneapolis, from which are governed seven million Netherlanders
 and their colonial empire of nearly fifty million souls. On many Dutch maps the unwieldy name has been shortened to | Den Haag' which we in turn have i changed to The Hague As we use it, then, the name means-if it means any 1 thing after it's metamorphosis-the
 hedge or the hedge enclosure.'
 ''The Hague is not a typical Dutch city. It does not have the commerce and industry of larger Amsterdam and Rotterdam nor the distinctive Dutef quality of the smaller towns. It is cos mopolitan, and may be compared tc
 Washington in that it's chief business i: governing, and that it Is well built, ha; beautiful avenues and trees and is ricl
 in parks. But there is much of tht
 strictly Dutch atmosphere. Numerous
 canals cross the city's thorcNghfares
 and in the center of the town is a siza
 ble lake called the Vyver-the fish pont
 La survival of the hunting lodge day of 700 years ago. Cleaning white man
 sions and government buildings ar grouped about this pond, which serve
 as a rehecting pool to set off their ap
 pearance.
 "The Hagues shops and cafes are ex cellent. Lange Pooten is the city's Fift avenue and Michigan boulevard an : there of a late afternoon and evening the crowd of promenaders seems out c ! all proportion to even a population c l 360,000.

 We saw where they were adyertis- ing Goldine Tonic and Nervine," Mrs s. Lane, Waterbury, Conn, writes, and my mother was quite sick at the time. The doctors said there was no hope for her whatever. They gave her up. So we decided to try a bot tie. That is three years ago this last fall We have kept it on hand ever since and today she does all her own work. She says that Goldine has built her up wonderfully. We have told 4 number of different people about it and no doubt they will try it. She had catarrh of the stomach. dizziness and a general breakdown of the whole system. Now that is about all gone and she is most 70 years old. The doc l tor said one day not long ago that mother looked fine and wanted to know what she was doing. We told him about Goldine and, although he had never heard about il, he said it was better for her than what he was | giving"

rrx1ra THE COAL PRICE.

When the coal strike started it was rsnllzed that there was a large surplus In storage and that the non union fields could be depended upon for a consider 1t,a part of the bituminous coal needed. Likewise it was appreciated that there was no reason for an increase in the price of coal until the demand exceed sd the supply. unless there was a dis play of nervousness on the part of some and efforts were made to make certain of a needed supply by offering and pay iuE much higher prices.
 n is well known what developed from such condition during the dafTs of the war whea the price of coal was boosted siy high. Prices have never gone back to normal. either at the mine or to the ccrsumer. When they win DO one known. if in fact they ever do. but just 1t present the prospects are good for that unwarranted imitation of prices un. lees some such agreement as Is proposed by Secretary Hoover Is adhered to The boosting in price is perhaps as much the fault Of the buyer who pays . highel price in an effort to riake sure of a sup ply when he thinks conditions look bad Hc forces others to do likewise and sooT everyone must do it. Nothing will in. crease prices any quicker. and it Is 1ust that that Secretary Hoover desires tC cbeck
 By adher4ng to prices which are fixed for various grades and various regions where different conditions have to bl taken into consideration. and as lonl as t Is possible to adequately aneet thu demand there is no justification for bil price snereases.
 There is nothing in this effort tha 1rceasarily means the hastenInE of tn, and of the coal strike. It Is simply l; move which has for it's object the pre- ventlon of the mjustihed high prices and means a sacrifice only to those whl are looking forward to prohteering iron tho hyHturicai attitude taken by som Ef ths ccnEEn4ers. which the operator Might ar might net encourage.

ORMONDA'S WEDDING

He's crazy about Ormonda," de- clared the girl who wore her bobbed hair daringly straight. He sent her a box of candy that cost at least sIO. Il think he is marvellous
 ''Yes, he is crazy all right. agreed the girl who almost had cross-eyes and was extremely sensible tBut not about getting a reputation for spending his money"
 He must want to marry her" put in the girl who always managed to show her beautiful hands before you got away. "A man won't sauander money like that unless he is serious. Do you suppose she will take him?"
 'Of course she will take him. the girl with hobbed hair asserted. "Or- monda is 27. Do you suppose we will be among the bridesmaids? It is certain to be gorgeous wedding and he will have a lot of college men from out of town in the party and her people will grab the chance to give Ormonda a wonderful sendoff, because she is the 1 last of her crowd to marry and every body has sort of hinted that she never would, what with her poor complexion and disposition. They'll be so triumph ant and tickled that her father will just l sign blank checks and hand them over and SnOuldnr WonQeC. 1T OrmOnda presents to her maids would be some thing wonderful. She'll want to outde Corabelle Buttons wedding. The maids
 at that got diamond barpins.''
 1 ''oh. hope she asks mel" cried the
 girl with the almost cross-eyes. 'I've
 always been wild for a handsome bar, pin and I'm sure I've entertained hel enough and if she doesn't include me certainly shall think it is awfull5 strange! I've always been fond of Or monda and defended her when the res of you girls were slamming her.
 ''Slam Ormondai'' gasped the gir with the pretty hands reproaehfully
 Why, she's one of my very best friends
 and I've always admired her intensely I'm certain to be one of the bridesmaid I and I'll manage to put in a good wort for you when she talks to me
 "Well how are you so certain you'll
 be asked first?' demanded the bobbed hair girl coldly. ''I guess am just a close a friend of Ormonda's as you are
 and I shouldn't be at all surprised if ' were chosen maid of honor. I hope h has somebody wonderful for best man because the maid of honor always see . so much of the best man, and 1v

known at least six weddings that have come through such affairs. Not that am thinking about that so much as about making dear Ormonda's wedding a beautiful affair.""
 Of course you are, agreed the girl with the pretty hands with dangerous sweetness. "Ormonda always has made a confidant of me, and if it were not for betraying condolences could have told you lots about this affair a long time ago-of course, don't mean that she announced her engagement in actual words, but then it was easy to tell how things were going. I shouldn't be sur prised if she selected wonderful patterns for our bridesmaid dresses, and I am going to tell her that if she wants 8 group of colors I must have the orchid Raphael Chrome, the celebrated artist who dined with us last winter, told me I always should wear it.

 T was talking with ormonda som' I time ago." interrupted the girl with bob bed hair "and she practically said tha whenever she was married she was go l ing to choose me and of course tha meant that was to have my choice o colors, so-"

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Sir Edward Elgar, who celebrates his sixty-ffth birthday today, is one of the most famous living composers, consider ing which fact it is a somewhat remark able circumstance that he has never had lesson in composition in his life. A great deal of his success as a musician is probable due to heredity, for his fath- CT was an excellent musician, and he commenced life in home where music was loved. One of his first appointments was bandmaster of an English lunatic asylum, where he used to conduct aa or chestra composed of the attendants. In those days he thought nothing of writing Che whole score of piece for the !rincs- ly sum of a dollar or two. Nowadays his income runs into many thousands of dol lars year. He first attracted attention with his "Froissart," in 1890, and ten years later his position as one of the most remarkable British composers was made secure with the presentation of his oratorio, "The Dream of Gerontius'

Piles
Can't Be Cured From the Outside.

Can't B., Cured From the Outside.
 External treatments seldom cure Piles.
 Nor do surgical operations.
 The cause is inside-bad circulation.
 The blood is stagnant. the veins hab- by.
 The bowel walls are weak, the parts almost dead.
 To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation send fresh current through the stag . nant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method.
 J. S. Leonhardt, M. D., set at work some years ago to find a real internal Pile remedy. He succeeded. He named his prescription HEM-ROID, and tried it in 1000 cases before he was satisfied. Now HEM-ROID is sold by druggists everywhere under guarantee It's easy to take, and can always be found at Lee & Osgood's. who will gladly re- fund the purchase price to any dis satisfied customer.

IMMIGRANT EXAMINATIONS
 ABROAD.

When B. J. Henning, assistant secre- tary of labor, declares that the govern- ment expects soon to conduct the exam ination of would-be immigrants on the other side of the water it will be recog- nized as a response to need which has long existed and change that will be of great benefit to the immigration sta tions as we'll as to those who are seek ing admission to the country.
 As it Is now when person wants to enter this country he disposes of his property a. home, heads for a seaport and embarks for the United States in expectation that he can meet the imni- grafton law requirements. In too many instances he comes whether he can or not, and after undergoing examination here. which he fails to pass, is obliged to return to the other side and take such chances as exist of reestablishing himself at home. That is of course his lookout but the idea of making tive trips across the ocean unnecessarily when it could be determined before de- parture that there was no chance of get ting in here, is sufficient reason for be lieving the congestion at the immigra. tion stations and preventing the hard ships to which such people are subject ed
 Examination at the source for thost seeking to enter this country has lonl been advocated. Under the present re strictive law it will prevent the practic' to a considerable extent of exceeding the quotas admissible from the respec tive countries, while there would als' be the opportunity to discourage thos' who are planning to depart for thi country with no intention of becominl citizens and there would also be a lnucl better chance of culling out the unde ] sirabies. such as those who are crimi
 nally inclined and those who are suffer ! ing from disease.
 1 migration regulations are import
 ant for the future welfare of the coun | try and those that will best serve tn
 purpose are what is desired.
