PARIS. Oct. THE extent to which
Partisan fashion establishments are
dominated by Americans has been re-
vcalcd by an inquiry pursued IN the

played by a prominent Fifth Avenue

III the case of LeEroux Soeurs tho
story is romantic. The two sisters
are natives of RoubaiX. Il town In
Northern France. When tho war
broke out one OF them managed to es-
cape to Paris with n tiny capital and
establish herself in 4 fourth nc or at
tic on Rue Louis-le- Grand as n mil
liner. Tho other sister was caught
IN the German rush and had TO stay
in Roubaix.
\ friend persuaded one OF tho larg-
est American buyers to visit the lit
tie milliner. who. by that time had
succeeded in making seven hats
without selling any OF them. I'm
pressed by tho originality displayed
the American bought all seven and
placed large order.
Other American buyers followed. and
now LcErouN' Soeurs is the third larg-
est millinery concern IN Paris. Their
business amounts to hundreds Of
thousands OF dollars annually-nearly
all with America.
The same buyer Was lunchinG one

out where the hat had been pur-
chased. The inquirer camc back with
the Information that tho hat had
been bought in n small shop far M

How thousands are regaining
the splendid vigor Of health

When a man "slows up"-begins to feel
his strength and vigor slipping away-gets
run down, nervous, irritable
One of two things is wrong.
His body is either failing to nourish
properly the living cells which compose it,
or it is failing TO throw off the poisonous
waste that gathers in the system.
Check either of these processes, even
temporarily, and health is threatened. And
yet the bodies of millions are either half
starved or clogged up!
The fresh, living cells Of Fleischmann's
Yeast contain a natural food-with the
very elements which help the body perform
these two vital functions.
Like any other plant or vegetable, yeast
produces the best results when fresh and
"green''-not dried or "kiled." Fleisch-
mann's Yeast rs the highest grade living
yeast-always fresh. 1t is not medicine,
it is natural food. Results cannot be
expected unless it is eaten regularly.
Everywhere physicians and hospitals are
prescribing Fleischmann's Yeast to correct
constipation, skin disorders and to restore
appetite and digestion.

Sprinkler system ordered in West

Attention OF owners called to un-

WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
Heartburn. Gas On Stomach, Etc.

Indigestion and practically all forms
Of stomach trouble, say medical au-
thoriues, are due nine times out Of ten
TO an excess OF hydrochloric acid in the
stomach Chronic ''acid stomach" is
exceedingly dangerous and sufferers
should do either one OF two things.
Either they can go on a. limited and
often disagreeable diet, avoiding foods
that disagree with them, that irritate
the stomach and lead TO excess acid
secretion or they can eat as they
please in reason and make II n practice
to counteract the effect OF the harmful
sOurnees or premature fermentation bv
the use OF a little Bisurated Magnesia
at their meals.
There is probably no better, safer or
more reliable stomach antiacid than
Bisurated Magnesia and Il is widely
used for this purpose II has no direct
action on the stomach and Is no a di-
gestent. But teaspoonful OF the pow
der or a couple Of FIVE grain tablets

viii neutralize the excess acidity which
may be present and prevent its further
formation. This removes the whole
cause OF the trouble and the meal di
gests naturally and healthfully without

tents.

nesia from any reliable druggist. ASK
for either powder or tablets. IL never

tive Try this plan and eat what you
want at your next meal and see II this

REFUSELUMP
sum PAYMENT
Industrial Accident Board
Continues Weekly Pay
For Mrs. Harman
SEE NO REASON TO
CHANGE FROM POLICY

The Industrial Accident Board
yesterday afternoon refused the ap-
plication of Mrs. Lulu c. Harman
for the commutauon OF weekly COM
pensation payments by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad for the death OF her
husband. who was killed at Farm
hurst, December, 1920. by a train.
Mr.. Harman was a conductor on the
train that caused his death Mrs
Harman has ben receiving $3.50 a
week, since the accident under an
agreement, with 200 weekly pay
ments remaining for the company
to make. In handing down the de-
cision the board after discussing the
facts OF the accident and the law as
applied to previously decided cases,
said:
THE Board recognizes that when
compensation is to be paid for a
fixed and determined period, it may
appear to the beneficiary that lump
sum payment would be desirable but
the wise purpose OF the Compensa-
tion Law is that weekly payments
OF compensation shall be in lieu of
wages, and this Board feels that it
is frequently necessary TO protect
beneficiaries and their dependents
against their own unwise desire to
obtain lump sum payments.
I'm the instant case, insofar as
careful prudence and thoughtful
foresight can determine. there are
no such facts and circumstances as
would Justify any deviation from
this policy.
TT is therefore awarded and ad-
judged by the Industrial Accident
Board OF the state OF Delaware this
Thirty-first Day OF January, 1922,
that the petition OF Lulu c. Harman
for the Communication OF compensa-
ton payable by Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company under the aforesaid
agreement be and is hereby dis
missed"
In this award, the present Board
Is following out the policy OF the
past Board insofar as petitions foi
commutationf are concerned.
