that feminine morality does not mt all

A REAL FIGHT

CENATOR HIRAM JOHNSON says he
- viii fight for an amendment to the
United States constitution permitting
minimum wage laws for women.
His success in the venture would be the
browning of public career in which there
have been many battles for progress and
national welfare Whatever ones personal
opinion of Hiram Johnson, it must be con-
eeded that he is man of great talent,
with high ideals in respect of service to
the common people. He has erred and
weakened his standing when he has played
politics for himself rather than for his
ideals and for the people, but when he
SAYS there is going to be fight, there
will be fight.
1t is a misfortune that the United States
supreme court has rendered decision in
one case which disturbs, if it does not
even imperil, wage legislation in IA states
which have declared what they want, and
which are doing business peacefully and
profitably under such legislation. The har-
mony under such state legislation is a
demonstration that the great mass of en-

On COURSE THEY'LL PAY

A / least half dozen firms and indl-
n vidualS in the Pacific Northwest are
anxious to get hold of the Admiral. fleet
operating between Puget Sound and the
Orient, And the Dollar interests, at pres
ent managing and operating the ships
want to keep the boats,
In the face of this fact Il. Stanley Dol
lar and other shipping men proclaim that
the line can't be made to pay for some
years, for various reaSons-government
red tape, high wages, cut-throat compet-
ton from British and Japanese, lack of
business.
Well, if the ships aren't capable Of
making money for some years, why are
six or seven groups so anxious TO get hold
of them2
The answer must be that the ships can
be made TO pay, and pay handsomely,
But If the emergency fleet corporation
and the L. S. shipping board can be made
to believe that the ships will be dead
loss to the buyer-well, the shipping
board might reasonably be supposed to
gather the idea that it ought to get rid
of the ships at any price at all-or poSSi-
bly, give them away with bonus to
somebody.
If the ships can't be made TO pay it's
a cinch Seattle groups would not want to
get hold of them. They want TO own
them because they know the boats CAN
be made to pay.

GOOD COMEDIES

MYTH the death of Mrs. Sidney Drew
wv in Los Angeles the other day passed
the lone remaining member of pair of
light comedians who gave our moving
pictures some of the shrewdest cleanest
comedies the films have known.
With her husband who died in 1919,
she made many comedies of married life.
They weren't slapstick stuff, but they
were human and they were funny. 1t was
good, wholesome humor. and it came at
a time when good, wholesome humor was
a scarce article on the screen.
The movies owe quite debt to Mr.. and
Mrs. Drew. And so do all the rest of us
who like a healthy laugh.

Quit Poisoning Yourself Today!
Notice Quick Difference in the
Way You Look, Eat, Sleep
and Feel

The great agitation over SELF
POISONING is sweeping the coun-
try. The menace is great! 1t is
one that should cause every man,
woman and child to pause and con-
slider ones own condition.
Self poisoning, as it is called, is
the direct result Of allowing the
Liver, the body's filter, to become
sluggish and clogged. This is why
many wake up feeling dull and
tired-tongue coated-bad taste in
mouth and offensive breath.
Why You Feel Bad
This explains why so many suf-
fer from just such symptoms as
poor digestion, sour stomach and
formation of gases, improper move
ment of the bowels, pimples, sal
low complexion, sick headaches
and a nervous, upset and overtax-
ed condition of the system-why
one catches cold so easily while in
this rundown condition and why
the system is not healthy enough
to throw off various diseases as
Nature intended.
Due to Neglect
But there is no. need for alarm,
This Selfpoisoning menace is not
contagious-but t!de entirely to
ones own neglect. And, just as
science has traced these symptoms
directly to poisoned liver ana
system, so medical authorities
have perfected remedy that over
comes the cause of Sef-pcisoning
