YOUR CLOTHES

CLOTHES do not make the man {;
~ but they advertise him. If they
are good clothes he is well advertised
If they are sloppy clothes he is badly
advertised
If you are rich you can afford to
neglect your personal appearance. II
you are poor you cannot.
Clothes are as much part Of a
mans business equipment as the
square and triangle are part Of the
equipment Of the draughtsman.
An equitable income tax would make
an allowance for mans clothes on
the ground that they were business
adjunct as well as q protection.
Any sensible man out Of job will
put up the best possible appearance
before he hunts employment.
1t takes keen Judge of character
to go very far beyond clothes when he
is hiring help
If man is poorly dressed the pros
pective employer jumps to the conclu-
sion that he can't be much good or he
would be better clad.
If he is we'll dressed the natural in
ference is that in past employment the
applicant had been worth enough to
enable him to buy good clothes.
There is no need Of cultivating ad-
vanced fashions or freak styles. The
fiashy dresser is as badly off, from the
job-hunting viewpoint. as the man
whose trousers bag at the knees.
But good clothes. we'll cared for,
give an air OF competence to any man,
and are Of vast service to himsin i'm
pressing others.
They are worth making a .considera-
BILE sacrifice to get. y
And once position is secured, we'll
cut, well-fitting clothes still help their
wearer to earn good salary. For al
most every employee has, in the course
of business, to deal with outsiders, and
the outsider falls under the spell of
clothes as quickly as anybody.
The effect Of clothes on mans own
morale is also highly important.

NERO WINTERS TRY
To AID Immigrants
AT Detroit Identification. Cards
Bearing Southern Addresses
Are Given All Arrivals

DETROIT, Mich, June 26.-So
many friendless and unknown
Southern negroes have died, been
taken to the morgue, and failing
identification have been buried in
the potters field here that civic au-
thoirties, together with negro mini
sters are taking steps to provide
every immigrant Southern negro
with AM identification card, giving
the address Of his nearest Southern
relatives, or white folks"
Seventy five per cent of the UNI
identified dead in the Detroit
morgue are negroes, according to
the Detroit news, and the major
ity of these are newly arrived from
the South, tuberculosis, typhoid,
and in some cases actual starvation
are responsible for the majority of
deaths, although surprisingly
large number of killings occur
when the negro completes with the
low grade immigrant, and race
clashes between the negro and the
immigrant classes are becoming
more and more frequent.

Many Villages Laid
Waste By Volcano
Ominous Vesuyius, One of Most
Treacherous of Volcanoes,
Has Burst Many Times

Two hundred and twenty-five
miles slightly northwest across the
Tyrrhenian sea from Mount Etna,
near Giarre, stands Vesuvius, with
in sight of Naples. Both are
treacherous volcanoes.
Until three months ago both had
been comparatively quiet for years
-Etna for ID, Vesuvius for II.
Strangely at about the same time
each commenced to rumble. And
then, just a few days ago, Etna
brust forth, belching river of hot
lava, soaring towns into oblivion.
AS a result of what is happen
ing to 100000 persons who lived
within the shadow of Etna, peas
ants dwelling along the sides of
Vesuvius are turning inquiring eyes
to their own giant sentinel, stand
ing uneasily on the mainland in
the Bay of Naples.
For more than rs centuries, a
highly civilized community has
densly populated the vicinity and
slopes of Vesuvius. Etna is older,
but Vesuvius has supplied great
deal of the intelligence upon which
geological theories of volcanic ac-
ton are based.
Successive eruptions have caus-
ed a variation in the height of We
suvius. In June, 1900, it was
some 1875 feet above Il sea-level
After the violent eruption of 1906,
however, it was reduced until now
it averages only 1000 feet.
1t consulted of two distinct por-
tons. On the northern side a high
semi-circular cliff, reading a high
3714 feet-half encircles the pres
emit active cone. 1t descends in
long slopes toward the plains be-
low. Monte Somma is the name by
which this precipice is known, and
it forms the wall of an ancient
prehistoric crater.
At the same time of its greatest
dimensions, history says, the vol
cano was probably twice as high
as it is now.
Centuries ago, a colossal erup-
ton blew off the upper half of
the cone.
Seinece does not know definitely
what causes volcanic eruptions.
The theory most accepted is that,
as the earth's surface shrinks in
response to the contracting effect
OF cooling age. and warps to the
earth tides" which cause twice-N
a-day rise and fall of about 12
inches in the surface beneath our
unconscious feet, the pressure on

DANGER SIGNALS
OF INDIGESTION
The Disease That Strikes Like
Lightning

Beware of indigestion-the dis.
ease that kills more people and
kills them quicker than any other.
This warning. by physicians, is par
tlcular y applicable this season of
the Z ear, when your system 'Iets
down" in tore and vigor with the
first approach of warm weather.
What are the warnings that ma.
ture gives YOU of the approach of
indigestion? The medical books tell
us: 1. Gas, which means that YOUR
food is fermenting instead of di-
costing. 2. A feeling of fullness or
oppression in the region of the stom-
ach after eating. This means that
the gas has ballooned your stom-
ach and is pressing up against your
heart and lungs. 3. A dull, lazy
feeling, which means that you are
not getting the nourishment from
what you are eating. a. Restlessness,
unrefreshing sleep, which means
that the poisons of indigestion are
disturbing your brain and nerves.
5. Sometimes, pain and fluttering
around the heart, though this symp-
tom may com later.
Don't take chances with indiges-
tion-you are too apt to lose. If you
have had any of the symptoms men
toned above, get your digestive
organs to work at once with Dan
Max, the greatest prescription that
was ever written for a digestive
tonic. Dan-Nax Immediately aids and
assists every ode of your digest
i've organs, including the stomach,
liver and DO els. Dan-Nax makes
your digestion perfect and COM
plete." You feel its helpful effect
from the verv first dose. Get a bot
tie of Dan-Nax today at any drug
store. Dan-Nax is so much superior
to any other remedy for indigestion
that the manufacturers have in
structed every druggist to refund
the price if you do not get relief
so it costs you nothing if you are
not delighted with results. Delay
might be dangerous, get Dan-Nax

embarrassment in greeting new diplo-

lowing his graduation he went to
Idaho, when he began as al ordinary
workman, passed through the many
difficult stages of learning the game
in all it's phases until he became as
sistant to the president of his COM
pany. He engaged in mining opera
lions in California, Colorado, Alaska
and Mexico. He worked underground
at the Treadwell mine in Alaska and
planned a hydro-electric plant at Taku

JERSEY LEGISLATOR PLEAD FOR
UNDERSTANDABLE LANGUAGE

Part of the work of the proposed
simplifcation of legal language so
that it may come within the compre-
hension of jurors and parties in liti-
cation who are entitled to know Just
what the whole thing means" Some
years ago, when the New Jersey civil
service law was under discussion at
Trenton, a rural assemblyman pro-
tested vigorously. cit says here" he
insisted, that this shall be a 'compre-
hensive' system for the selection of
public employees. It's no such thing.
Comprehensive means something you
can understand, and we don't, any of
us, understand it."
If jurymen. parties at law and the
listening laity in the court room were
free to speak their minds, they would
confess to something of the bewilder-
ment of the New Jersey legislator. 1t
is not alone in the courtroom that the
man from the street is obfuscated-to
use a legal term-by language tradi-
tional to legal usages. The old forms
of expression are not lightly to be
sacrificed. There is a magnificence, a
rhetorical opulence, attaching to some
of the legal phraseology, in English
or in Latin, that directly contributes
to the enhancement of the dignity of
the courts and to popular respect for
legal processes. But a Qualification
of language, as well as a ~codifcation
of laws, is necessary if "the laws de-
lay" which is proyerbial, is to give
way to the expeditions functioning,
the smooth and swift and harmonious
efficiency for which in the world of
business and industry the demand in
creases every day.
So many legal documents are drawn
up in language meant to care for all
possible e%vasions and exceptions, that
it takes a lawyer to pick the minds of
other lawyers and conjecture what
they mean. The average man throws
up his hands in despair. The income
tax blank, which has brought so many
to the verge, or I'VE to the brink, of
distraction, is clear as a mountain
spring compared with the verbiage
of some contracts and partnership
agreements that are encountered
every day.-Public Ledger.

OF DRUGS

Catherine Mcdonald, that is the
name she assumed, asked to be ar
rested the other night so she might
be cured of taking drugs.
A dress designer, she also liked to
dance at night. Lately she met a
lovely girl" who introduced her to a
magic needle whose injections would
give her the needed vitality to work
through the day and dance the night
through.
The rest of the story is simple, sor-
did, commonplace, though the magis-
trate who SEN her to Bedford speaks
of it as very pitiful and dramatic"
OF course it is-as is every such story
when it is seen as that of a precious
human being rather than just another
"case."
The new angle to this particular
incident is it's revelation of a new
type of activity, that of booster or
drummer of drugs. These drummers
are either addicts themselves and thus
secure their regular dosage as COM
mission, or they get a cash percentage
for bringing new customers to the
drug vendors.
The drug habit is more pernicious
than the drink evil, it is more in
sidious and more destructive of the
morale of the user. Besides, it seems
to induce a desire to communicate
the vice. Society in self-defense must
cooperate in militant fashion to up
root the drug traffic, plying and help
ing the sinner the while we condemn
and punish the sin, whether it breaks
out in high circles Or low.-New York
