REDUCES LIVING COSTS
Italian Premier Reduces Tariff on I'm.

DOWNRIGHT 1922.

Rome, Jan. 28.-The stern determi.
nation of Premier Mussolini to reduce
the cost of living in Italy by the re-
duction of the prices of prime necessi-
ties is seen in the virtual abolition of
the tariff on imported grain which has
been reduced from 11.50 to 1.50 gold
lire (S2.22 to 2S cents) per quintal CD
pounds). Farmers incomes which hith-
erto have been virtually untaxed will
henceforth be forced to contribute about
10 per cent. During the war the farm
ers profiteered more than the munitions
makers and some of their prosperity
will now be swept away.
The Fascist are carrying out many
CT their promised reforms with remark
able energy.

Pills and salts give temporary re

Science has found d newer, better
way--a means as simple as Nature
itself.
In perfect health natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant is not sufficient. Medi-
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lubricating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. AS NujoI is not a laxative
it cannot grippe. 1t is In no sense a
