But thru their megapnone, Glenn,
who has played an infamous part in
every labor struggle in this city

safe at the city hall, nothing is do

vious struggles, with the result that
boss dressmakers feel they are sit

Mr.. Glenn was in his spacious
offices in the loop when seen by the

mitted that in previous strikes, the
Manufacturers Association had
been compelled to put up hard
fight in order to keep things
straight, for the open shoppers in
the city council. But they had sue
ceeded in preventing any interfer-
ence with police protection for the
bosses.

There were negotiations looking to
choice of either Senators Norris or
Howell, Nebraska. Republicans, somc-
times aligned with the I4afollette in

Senator Brookhart. 1t was generally
conceded, however. that with the report
of a sufficient number of insurgents,
the Democrats would have enough
votes to force through the committee

actly the same fix as though he had
MT believed in it at all?"
Mr.. Chavonelle emphasized the
good policy of having ones life in
surance paid in small sums at Ger
tain dates, declaring that lump cash
is generally spent in a short time.
Give your family $4,000 cash in q
lump sum and they will be in want
IN q few years: give them $4,000 q
year and they will be short of cash
before the end of the year but give
them 500 per month or any other
adequate fixed amount and they will
live free from money worries al
ways he declared.
At the close of his address Mr..
Chavonelle quoted a few announce
ments made by officials in the
United State government. They
were as follows:
Nineteen out of every twenty fail
to provide for their old age or for
their families at death.
Life insurance saves the nation
more than $30.000,000 per year in
maintaining the poor.
Ninety percent of the children
who enter school at six must stop
before completing the eighth. grade
to go to work.
Over 100000 women must work
to live.
"Thirty-five percent of the widows
Of the country Are in want.
Life insurance has decreased
pauperism more than 80 1-3 percent
in thirty-five years.
Seven eighths of all the money
left by married men for their Deepen
dents is derived from life insurance"
The speaker declared that his com
pany had been loaning 100000, 600
per year and asked the members of
the CLUB how much of this was COM
ing to Waterville. He mentioned the
proposed community building and
said that the metropolitan company
would be glad to advance the sum
needed to build it. He suggested
that the Rotarians and other promi-
nent organizations of Waterville, get
together and promote the plans, and
secure the much needed building as
soon AS possible instead of waiting
ten years or more for slower de-
velopments.

Undigested food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather ferments.
the same as food left in the open air,
says a noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by
Hyper acidity meaning there is an
excess of hydrochloric acid in the
stomach which prevents complete
digestion and starts food fermenta-
ton, Thus everything eaten sours
in the stomach much like garbage
sours in a can. forming acrid fluids
and gases which initiate the stomach
like a toy balloon. Then We feel a
heavy. lumpy misery in the chest;
we beich up gas; we eructate sour
food or have heartburn, fiatulence,
water-brash or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all diges-
tive aids and instead get from any
pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts
and take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast and drink 1t
while it is effervescing, and further
more, to continue this for a week.
While relief often follows the first
dose. it is important to help neutral
iZe the acidity, remove the gas max
ing mass, start the liver. stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia and
sodium phosphate. This harmless salts
is used for many stomach disorders
with excellent reSults.-Adv.

Mr.. Chavonelle opened his talk
with n little sketch of the history of
life insurance. He said that as near
as he could find in the history of his
business, 1t originated about 200
years ago in England. Not n great
deal of progress was made, however.
at that time until the American life
insurance companies were formed
about 20 years ago and even then the
business was not very promising I'M
