PORTUGAL SENSES
 POLITICAL UNREST
Financial Outlook, Prohtterins
 and Rate Exchange Is Cause

Lisbon, Aug. 11-A rate of exchange stutfs exorbitantly high have con- spired to make the cost of living in Portugal serious problem. And profteering as an additional factor cannot be overlooked
 Several highly placed state func- tionaries have been arrested and jailed, charged with conspiracy and the holding of secret meetings. which is an indication of an underlying po- litical unrest It is felt in some quar- ters that a military movement is in preparation, to act in case of a fresh outburst of the turbulent elements which brought about the political as- sassinations of last October.
 Papers Criticise.
 The press is clamoring against the economic condition of the country and Seculo vehemently exhorts the government to put an end to the speculation to which it chiefly attri- butes the increasing fall in exchange The minister of finance is trying to raise an internal loan and has had conferences "ltl several or the most prominent Portuguese bankers to this end His efforts have not so far been successful,
 One of the factors said to contrib ute to the situation is that. although exportation amounts to several mill lion pounds, all his money Is depos- ited in foreign banks instead of being paid out in the country. At the same time gambling in exchange is being carried on in a barefaced manner. Tn London banks alone there is said to be over 25.000,o0 Portuguese pounds which would greatly improve the rate of exchange if left here The constant arrest of officers and civilians and the fact of the troops having to keep within barracks to be ready at a moments notice, adds to the general unrest.
 Epoca directs attention to the state. ment of the British Premier, Lloyd George calling upon the nations which owe England money to pay in- terest charges in October This debt amounts to over f5,000,000 and in the paper asks if the interest is to be paid when due.

WHY WOMEN GET DESPONDENT.

Are not women naturally as light hearted, brave and hopeful as men? Yes, certainly; but a woman's organ
 ism is essentially different from a man 's,-more delicate, more sensitive and more exacting. Women in deli cate health are more dependent, more nervous, more irritable and more de- spondent When woman develops nervousness. sleepleasness, backaches, headaches, dragging down painssand melancholia she should lose no time in giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound a fair trial, as it will quickly dispel such troubles. This root and herb medicine contains no drugs and has been the standby of American womanhood for nearly fifty years.

Hull republican an admitted wet and Jesse Black Jr., democrat, a dry, are entering what their proponents claim will he the big battle of the state an this is- sue.
 Nowhere else in Illinois is the issue definite at present, Where the pro hibition issue does occur elsewhere it is not the principal fight but is in volved with other questions
 But in the sixteenth congressional district, which includes Peoria, the fight Is of such proportions that the Illinois Anti Saloon league will use every ounce of steam" at their com mand to defeat the wet" candidate, according to George Yue, district superintendent of the league.
 Statement of Hull
 Tn this district the two principal candidates are running on well de- fined wet" and dry" platform. Hull in a written statement, has declared himself as follows:
 While I have been neutral on the prohibition subject, I have been more convinced than ever that if America would allow the sale of light wines and beer, our people would he much better off Liquors of all kinds are sold in all places suitable for dispens- ing them
 Views of Black
 MT Black, also, has presented a platform in which he defines his stand on the prohibition question as follows:
 T believe in an economical admin istration of government and an i'm rartial and effective enforcement of the laws.
 But situation has arisen in this district which has attracted nation wide attention l regard the nomina- ton of Mir. Hull as challenge which must be met openly, In this cam paign l stand unquivocally for the eighteenth amendment, the provisions of the Nolstead act, obedience to the
 
 enforcement. l do not favor a modi- f1cation of the Eolstead act, to per init the manufacture and sale of light wines and beers That would mean the return of the open saloon and I an opposed 10 the open saloon" Mir. Black said that "upon these issues, particularly the last" he would ap- peal to voters.

Bringing Prosperity.

Mr.. Walter Grundy, president OF
the Fourth State Bank of Hutchin-

recent4trip to New York City, report
ed business in the east to be flourish
ing, with a big building boom on, and
everywhere evidence of a financial
well-being such as has not been ex-
perienced since the war.
"Money is easy" as a result of the
big money reserves" said Mr.. Grun-
dy as quoted by the Hutchinson
News. prohibition is being given
much credit for this condition. The
millions of dollars that formerly went
for booze are now going into legiti-
mate channels, and this is having a
great deal to do with restoration of
prosperity"

Poisoning Hints.

Clemson College, July 31.-Far-
mers who are poisoning or who are
about to poison for boil weevil con-
troll should remember the following
suggestions by Prof. A. F. Conrad,
En.omologist.
l.. Unless the farmer is willing
and is prepared and determined to
poison right, he had better not poison
at all.
2. A farmer attempting to poison
cotton on poor land may expect to
fail.
8. Unless the picking of infested
squares from the plants and from
the ground is most thorough, no
benefit may be expected. Square
collecting should be done thoroughly,
under effective supervision, with la
Dor that costs nothing or practically
nothing in cash.
q. For the mule-drawn and mule
back-dusters, use gentle mules to
avoid accident.
5. If the poison is of incorrect
specifications, it may cause burning
of The plants or it may fail to do any
coed. Both of the U. S. Delta Labor
atory and Clemson College Labora-
tory have offered all spring, and are
offering now, to examine the calcium
arsenate samples free of charge, and
will furnish upon request directions
for sending samples.
g.. Extention Service Information
Card No. 20 contains specific recon-
mendations on poisoning and is sent

Three Kinds of Workers.

There are three kinds of Christian
workers-canal barges, sailing ships,
and Atlantic liners.
The canal barges need to be drag
ged to the work. Often they do won
derfully well, but On the whole one
volunteer is better than three pres
sed men.
The sailing ships make fine going
so long as wind and tide are with
them, but when things get hard
when "the winds are contrary"
when the work is d~iscouraging, they
turn tail and sail away.

said to have characterized the sale
of liquors on United States vessels
as "scandalous" in a Chautauqua adj

who had studied law for fifteen min

laws could not be interpreted to per-
nit the sale of liquors on ships and
prohibit the sale on land" he declar,

could make the sale of liquor on u

Prohibition Enforcement Gain
ing Everywhere.

There is a force of Field Super
visors operating from the Washing.
ton office of the Federal Prohibition
Commissioner, whose duty it is to
periodically check directors offices
to see that the work is handled ex-
p%editiously and according to regula-
lions; that files, papers and all ex,
ecutive matters are current. This
force is rapidly being developed a
long highly specialized lines and it
is hoped will soon become n of the
main agencies in effecting a thor
ough business-like conduct Of the d.
rectors' offices. In an informal re-
port giving a general summary OF the
activities of the year which has clap
sed since his entering upon his Off
cial duties, Commissioner Roy A.
Hayes states his belief that it will in
time compare favorably with other
like agencies in the Government and
large commercial organizations.
Directors have been urged to ex-
ert their best efforts in obtaining
the support and cooperation of the
judiciary and Department of JUS
tice," says the Commissioner.
"The press was also recognized as
an important factor in informing
the public and arousing the people to
the Importance of law enforcement,
and in this connection directors were
requested to obtain the cooperation
of the press.
Directors were to recommend
men for agents upon their merits
rather than for any other considera-
ton, and urge that agents should al
ways conduct themselves in such a
way as to command the respect of
all good, law-abiding citizens.
"Taken as a whole, reports from
directors show a wonderful improve
ment all over. the United States. The
courts are Tightening up, it is much
easier to secure convictions from
juries; judges are melting out in
many instances jail and penltentiary
sentences of long terms.
Directors are receiving better
cooperation from county, municipal
and state officers and court officials,
prosecuting attorneys and officials
generally.
"Most newspapers, metropolitan
and rural, are anxious to print actual
news and many are giving valuable
aid in unfolding u forces in en-
forcement of the law"
