American Women Are Careless

Women are too apt to overesti-
mate their strength and overtax it.
When feeling well they take uneces-
sary chances, which in the long run
cause much pain and trouble. Wet
feet exposure to cold. lifting heavy
burdens and overwork viii often de-
velop troubles which cause no end OF
suffering. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the unfailing rene
dy in such cases. Thousands of Amer
lean women will testify to this fact
who have regained health and strength
by it's use. If you are suffering it win
pay you to give it fair trial.

Polish Government
 Faces Money Crash
Loans Refused, Small Ma tion Is in Desperate
 Financial Condition.
By FRANK E. MASON, International News Service Stan
 COrreSDOndent,

Correspondent.
 Paris, June 19-Poland, which for several months has been attempting to borrow whatever she can get from Paris bankers, Is in desperate hnan cial straits, The fear that the French Government may loan money to the Warsaw Government has resulted in press campaign to educate the French public as to the actual condition of their Eastern ally.
 The general balance of receipts and expenses since the foundation of the Republic November l, 1918, shows total receipts amounting to 102 billion marks and expenses of SPA billion marks. In other words Poland faces a deficit of 222 billion Polish marks, says a French financial news agency.
 "Poland's external debt is more than 2S5 million dollars. America is been unable to balance her budget. The estimates for 1922 show 591 bi1- lion marks expenses against 459 bil- lion marks receipts, which will make an increase of the deficit of 133 bil- lions.
 "But Poland cannot increase her taxes. The Minister of Finance has recently been obliged to recognize that the taxes collected for the quarter ending the last Of March were scarce ly one-quarter of the budget estimate. America and England have refused Poland a loan. She now turns to France asking a credit of 500 million francs. Our own situation demands that we avoid all waste, all useless ex- penSe. We have our devastated re- gions to reconstruct, our commerce and our industry to rebuild. And for these purposes we have not too many resources nOw,'

Brands Of Bulls
 Vary, Louis Learns

San Francisco, June 1s.-Back in Spain Louis Ceoni was cheered for throwing the bull The more he tormented the bull the more popular he was with hoi polloi.
 Recently Louis strolled down Broadway caroling the ''Toreador' song from Carmen" proclaiming to the world his sterling worth as a matador and offering to take on any "booI'' in the world for pastime-
 Herman HeXtrun, one of the oldest and biggest bulls" of the San Fran cisco police force, hove in sight. His blue uniform acted upon Louis as does the red flag to the bull.
 He shouted his defiance of all ''bools," and to make il more en- phatic implanted one of his toes in the .'bulPs" rather expansive stomach.
 Instantly, if not a little sooner. the .sbulPs'' nightstick beat a rat-tat on Louis head, despite his voluble pro tests that such was not in accordance with the rules of the game in Sunny Seville.
 Result-Louis landed in the bull pen at police court and, despite his plea he~meant no harm to the "beeg bIIII.' was sent to pasture for five days by a police pudge who disapproved of bull fighting.

Brittor-Leonard <Reu7io51 ''
 h Ring; June 26, Ls Next

Why Is Jack Britton risking his we4terweight title in a bout with Benny Leonard, June 26?
 On-hand. it seems a. foolish move on Brftton's part Leonard is con ceded to be the one danger aspirant to Britton'S Otle-the one man who can lick Britton as he Is today, Then why did Britton risk a crack at his own crown on Benny'S part for a comparatively small amount?
 A victory will gain Rritton little prestige But defeat will hurt him fl il does not cost him his title.
 The only explanation possible is that Britton is confident that he is Leonard's master.
 Britton has a right to such con fdence, but Ii may be that he is over estimating his own proweSS.
 The boys have met twice and on the showing Britton made both times he can feel pretty sure of cop ping the decision again-bar ring the one wallop that might put out his lights in a jiffy-

cisiySsly in the late rounds after get ting away to a bad start. In the sec ond meeting Britton had the edge all the way,
 Perhaps Britton Is forgetting that these battles took place many moons ago and that conditions have chang ed considerably since then.
 First of all, Britton has been harder hit by the passing years than has Leonard. Leonard is still near his prime. Br5tton is in the forties and passed the age of the average fighter, He has all his cleverness and speed, but may lack the stamina
 Next, Leonard has grown heavier and tougher since last they met. albeit somewhat slower.
 Britton did not have to take on Leonard to keep the wolf from the door. The welter king Is popular and is always in demand at fair prices to meet lesser lights.
 Britton is risking his title at a low price-as ring purses go these days One would expect him to de- nand a. high price for a crack at his crown.
 On the face of things it's hard to figure out that battle.
