WHY THAT LAME BACK?

That morning lameness-those SHARP
pains when bending or lifting, make
work a burden and rest impossible.
Don't be handicapped by bad back
look to your kidneys. You will make
no mistake by following this Milford
residents example.
Mrs. George Davis, liz w. 3rd St.,
says: "I have used Doan's Kidney
Pills and have found them very satisfac-
tory. am glad to recommend them as
a prompt relief for backache and other
kidney disorders" Statement given
March 81, 1850
On March IL, 1921, Mrs. Davis added
'It does me good to be able to say am
not troubled with backache or kidney
disorder now. Doans cured me over
five years ago and I haven't been trou-
bled since. 1 confirm my former state
ment"
Price 6Oc, at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Davis
had. Foster -Milburn Co., Mfrs, Buff

Lebanon Lady OVerjOyed By The Way
Tanlac OVercame LOng-Standing
Illness

II can never praise Tanlac enough,
for the medicine not only restored my
health but maintains it to the highest
standard" states Mrs. Mary Long, of
S43 Cannon St., Lebanon, Pa.
Before taking Tanlac 1 had stom-
ach trouble so bad I could scarcely
eat, drink or sleep, and there was no
let up of pain and suffering. My appe-
tite was gone, and what little did eat
both nauseated me and bloated me
with gas until was miserable beyond
expression.
81 had taken lot of different things
without result, but the Tanlac treat
ment was just what I needed. My
stomach today is as sound as when I
was a school girl, and there is not
single complaint can make about my
health. Tanlac is so good that have
had many of my friends try it, and it
never fails to give splendid results"
Tanlac is for sale by all good drug
gists. Accept no substitute. Over 81
million bottles sold.

PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE.

The tendency of medical science is to.
ward preventative measures. It is easier
and better to prevent than to cure.
Pneumonia, one of the most dangerous
diseases that medical men have to con-
tend with, often follows cold or attack
of the grip. The cold prepares the sys-
TEN for the reception and development
of the pneumonia germ. The louger the
cold hangs on, the greater the danger.
Take Chamberlain Cough Remedy as
soon as the first indication of cold ap
pears so as to get rid of it with the least
possible delay. 1t is folly to risk an at
tack of pneumonia when this remedy
may be obtained for a trife.

NOTABLE VICTORY
Is Won By Coal Miners in
Latest Dispute

New York.-Bituminou coal min
ers have won a notable victory in
their dispute with employers.
The agreement practically re-estab-
fishes the central competitive district
(Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and western
Pennsylvania) The only exception is
western Pennsylvania, which has
since accepted the provisions of the
settlement, though not being an origi-
nal party to the new agreement The
new agreement will serve as the ba-
sis for adjustments in other fields,
as did the old central competitive
agreement.
Prior to last springs nationwide
coal strike, the miners insisted that
the central competitive district coal
owners meet with them, as provided
in the then existing agreement. The
coal owners refused, alleging that
they feared prosecution under the
antitrust law This position was in
dorsed by every professional 100 per
centery" and with large stocks of
coal on hand the plan to smash the
Miners Union developed rapidly.
After a fve-months' struggle the
coal owners realized the futility of
their plan and the approach of winter
cooled the anti-union ardor of the
100 per centers." This resulted in a
new agreement along practically the
same lines as former conditions.
A representative of the coal own
ers now declares that the agreement
means that the cost of coal will be
lower. The miners show that the
agreement has not increased wages,
that the strike did not increase wages
and that the coal owners statement
sustains the coal miners claim that
for several years wages have had no
relation to coal costs.

BRITISH STRIKES

London, England-The first strike
in the wool textile industry since the
beginning of the war is on with 600
employees of Mitchell Brothers out
The firm undertook to apply the zone
break" system without taking bal
lot of the workers.
Seven hundred furniture workers
are on strike against Harris Lebu, fur
niture manufacturer, owing to the
firms determination to substitute
piecework for time work in violation
of the existing agreement.
Soap and candle workers employed
by j. C. Field are on strike against
a wage, reduction of four shillings a
week for men and two shillings for
women workers. The company en-
deavored to impose the reduction
without consulting the trade unions
involved

and trials" conducted by the "com-
mittee of twelve" which dominated
and organized the mob movement.
One mob witness, asked what 100
per cent American" meant in this
case said he supposed it was 400 per
cent for the railroad"
Another guiding spirit in the mob,
a banker, said that in his youth he
had been member of the Order of
Railroad Telegraphers, excusing this
early act of decency on the ground
that he had been "only kid"
This sums up developments in the
Arkansas railroad insurrection.
The legislative committee will con-
tinue taking evidence, perhaps for
month. Finding the facts will help,
but something more seems to be re-
quired. Railroads and business men
must somehow obey the law as we'll
as working people.
