Mr.. II. J. Allen:
Dear Sir:--Your Lung Healer has
restored my 14-year-old niece to per-
feet health from the verge Of con-
sumption. She had a severe cough
all last winter. which in spite Of all
we could do for her, seemed to take
a stronger bold. She began to fade
and lose her appetite and strength
and to grow thin and pale. Every
breath OF cold air caused severe
coughing. Her lungs became sore
and panied her great deal, and she
coughed up. great Jumps of phlegm.
We sent her to the country for the
summer, but she seemed no better
this fall. AS her father died of con-
sumption, we believed she was in the
grip of the dread disease. Hearing
of the wonderful work OF Aliens
Lung. Healer, we decided to give 1t
a trial. The results were almost
miraculous, as the cough was almost
gone aftersusing one bottle and after
the seo0IkG attic she was entirely
cured, she now perfectly well
and Strong. h<eh regained her lost
flesh. EMS heartily and can go out in
the coolest weather without feeling
any bad effects Of catching cold. All
this is IA foS your grand remedy,

AID Of MOTHERS
FOR SAFETY
SOUGHT
Women's Organizations Here
Are Asked for Help to
Protect Children.

"Get the cooperation of the
mothers OF the District and Is per
cent of the accidents to children
will be eliminated"
This is the belief of the Wash
ington Safety Council and today the
organization is sending a letter
from Mrs. Lyman B. Swormstedt,
chairman of the wOmen's commit
tee, to. the, presidents of all wom-
ems organizations.
The letter is the first step to
achieve the three following objects
among the various women's organ
izations: Read the analysed acct
dent report prepared by the council
at each Of their meetings; appoint
committee on safety to devise
ways and mHans of reaching the
mothers, apd arrange for a speaker
on safety before the clubs.
With these letters today will also
go the first of the analysed reports.
1t will show that two children were
killed in January, 1922. 1t points
out that this great reduction is due
partly to the safety education work
in the public schools and partly to
the interest aroused among parents
as result of the recent safety
week.

COAL.
ALLOTMENT
ASSA|LED.
Dominion Getting. More Fuel
Now Than in Previous
Years, Says. Rogers.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Canada
is today receiving 80 per cent more
|anthrr cite coal and 20 per cent
more bituminous coal than in pre-
vious years, while New England
and other American States are not
receiving even their allotments,
Congressman John Jacob Rogers
charged before the Interstate Com
merce Commission hearings.
These hearings are being contin-
ued today, and may result in an
order calling for an embargo on
coal shipments to Canada.
Rogers urged that such an order
| be issued.
w. T. McGrath, former Canadian
fuel administrator, said at the
hearing that Canada stood ready to
accept any decision made an re-
gard to coal.
Canada will never retaliate by
cutting off the supply Of electric
power served the United States in
he event of an embargo" he said
| in answer to a question by Rogers.
Rogers disputed the right of
| Congress to treat Canada as the
"Forty-ninth state in the matter of
coal supply"
Figures of the Pennsylvania fuel
commission showed the allotment
to Canada up to March / as 100000
tons, representing 6 per cent. of
the New England and New York
allotments.
E. W. Parker, of the Pennsyl-
vania anthracite committee, de-
Jared Canada received only 2,00O,-
900 tons this year, or SO per cent
Of last years allotment.
| McCr9th said Canada was send.
ng $1,000, 100000 a year for coal
| to the United States, and that more
| than 100000 tons of anthracite
| were shipped annually to Canada.
| He also said considerable coal was
sent to the United States from Can
q Ia, claiming Canadians did as much
per capita to supply the United
States with coal as America was
doing to supply Canada.
