MELONS DAILY DOZEN
DANGER SIGNS

Washington, Jan. 16.-At the time
that he offers to the small in JestolS
of the United States the safest Sc
curity they can find, with a fair
rate of interest, Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon has taken occasion
to warn the people of small means
against that class of investments most
usually offered by the irresponsible
and dishonest. In little pamphlet
ings Certificates, Secretary Mellon
gives some advice on How to Avoid
Bad Investments" and points out IL
Danger Signs which should be a
warning to every investor, particular
ly small investors. There are thus
stated:
1. Mining stock. The best looking
mine in the world may prove white
elephant" Mining is a very expensive
undertaking and the risks are I'M
usually great. There are many good
mining investments, of course, but
this branch of the investment is gen.
orally not for those who work for and
depend upon a salary.
2. Oil stock. Drilling for oil is
costly. The hazards are great. Oil
investments are speculative and in
class with mining investments.
8. In the wake of every important
discovery or invention there comes
host of schemes: ''airplanes," radio"
wireless" The promoters of these
hor bo hag Of ;,,+o
but frequently their enthusiasm is
about all they have to sell. Look be-
fore you leap.
A. Investment in real estate" stu
ated in some distant place is some
times as dangerous as mining stock.
People have been known to buy
swamps advertised as "sea-shore
frontage" Know what you are buy
ing before you invest.
5. Land development schemes
frequently do not pan out. At best it
is a long time before any money
comes in from sales. Investment in
new companies" that are going to
sell by mall should be generally
avoided
6. Patent rights and processes dis
tribution. 1t is rarely the patentee
who makes the money.
Z. New manufacturing methods"
should always be closely checked and
investigated.
s. An investment requiring a quick
decision is often a fake. If there
isn't sufficient time to sleep over it"
something is probably wrong.
8. Special inducements in cash
discounts or stock bonuses urging you
to be one of the first to invest are
suspicious symptoms.
10. Tips" alleged to land you "on
the ground floor" are rarely to be TAX
en-. Those who are "on the ground
floor will monopolize the opportunity.
IL. playing the stock market on
margin" and all other forms of specu-
lation are decidedly not for the
small investor. Beware Of the buck
ct shop" If you buy stocks outright
for investment do so through a mem
Der of a Legitimate exchange.
~. Stock in mail order compan-
les" being organized with promises
based on what others have done sell

Says Piles Heal up and
Disappear Forever
Seldom Fails to Give Absolute Re-
lief from All Pain and Suffering.
Guaranteed by Loynd's Drug
Store and All Good Druggists.

Many sufferers from Piles or
Hemorrhoids have become despond-
ent because they have been led to
believe that their ease was hopeless
and that there was nothing in the
world to help them.
To these people we say, eco to
your druggist and get an original
box of MOAVA SUPPOSITORIES. -
One of these inserted into the rec
tum according to directions will be
found to give immediate relief.
They reach the source of the trou-
bic and by their soothing healing,
antiseptic action first allay the pain
and soreness and then by direct CON
tact with the ulcers and piles cause
them to heal up and disappear for
ever.
It's simply wonderful how speed
ily they act. Blessed relief often
comes in two days. Even in cases
that have steadily resisted all
known treatments, marvellous re-
suits have been obtained. MOAVA
is one of the wonderful discoveries
of recent years and any sufferer
from Piles or Hemorrhoids who IS
disappointed with its use can have
their money refunded. adv.

SUPPLY OF TUNA
WON'T LAST LONG,
SAYS FISHERMAN

SAN DIEGO, June 5.-Unless the
relentless pursuit of tuna is slacken-
ed or reoulated, this dele able fish
soon will be as rare as the Ameri-
can bison that disappeared under
methods no less ruthless than those
now being employed against the fish,
w. 0. Chase. veteran San Diego
fisherman, declared yesterday.
1he campaign 10 hasten the
rsun'a s entry into the brightly label
ed cans now has extended to the
hitherto unknown spawning grounds
of the wandercr of the deep, Chase
said. Proof of this is in the fact
that the japanese steamer Chichibu
Maru recently entered this port with
tuna caught off Cape San lucas,
900 miles south of here, and prac-
tically every fish was full of spawn.
AS the fish appear i'll the water off
San Diego early in June without
spawn, there is no doubt in Chase s
mind that the tuna brought in on
the refrigerating steamer Were act
ualy caught on the spawning
grounds.
Anything like intensive fishing
on spawning grounds will bring
about almost immediate extinction
Of the tuna. authorities agree. New
ertheless tle American ship Oceana
Vance now is operating there and
is expected soon with about 800
tons of tuna, all of which probably
contain spawn.

More progress has been made dur

and extending the scope Of workmen's
accident compensation laws than IN
any previous year since the armistice,
according to a statement by the

Legislation.
The statement outlines recommen-

the ninth annual edition of Stand
ards for Workmen's Compensation
Laws, just issued by the associations

1.-THE trend in compensation laws, !"
says Secretary John B. Andrews, lis
encouragingly toward more liberal
cash payments, shorter non-compen-
stated waiting periods and larger
measure of medical care, although a
majority of states still fall short of
just standards. No less than thirty
four states have in the past year
amended their laws so as to provide
a larger measure of protection-all
in the direction of adequate standards
and uniformity.
"a number of important accident
compensation measures are pending
in congress and in the half dozen
state legislatures now in session.
These include the Fitzgerald bill, to
provide compensation for the workers
in private employments in the Dis
trict Of Columbia and an amendment
in New York to reduce the unreason-
ably long non-compensated waiting
period to the now widely accepted
seven-day standard.
