feeling in various parts of the body
where this disease has centered.
1t is surprising what this new
medical preparation, Konjola, will
accomplish in many cases of neuritis
suffering. BY invigorating the inner
organs to healthy action, and stimu-
lating the liver and kidneys the
poisons throughout the system are
eliminated; the nerves become
stronger, and within a brief space
of time, this Konjoia brings amaz-
ing relief to the neuritis' sufferer.
Where drugs and heart.weakening
chemicals only produce temporary
|relief, this Konjola seems to go to
'the very seat Of the trouble. and re-
stores a healthy normal condition
in a natural way, so that the pains
do not return. Many Indianapolis
people have taken Konjola for the
suffering pains of neuritis, and In
stances of complete recovery are re-
ported day after day. Just recently
Mr.. James Gedling, we'll known In
dianapolis citizen, living at 92S Chad.
wick ST., this city, made the follow
ing remarkable statement:
II had neuritis so bad couldn't
raise my arms" said Mr. Gedling.
1.-THE pains would shoot through my
shoulders and neck and burn like
fire. When K WASH suffering with
these awful sharp, terrific pains, my
arms and hands would feel dead
had no life in them at all. 1 had
stomach trouble, as well as neuritis,
and was also very badly constipated
Well, besides completely ending my
constipation and stomach trouble
this Konjola also defeated my neuri-
tbs aches and pains, and / want to
say it is the first medicine that ever
did this for me. I have doctored
the past four years, but I will tell
anyone that Konjola finally put a
real stop to my misery. That dead
feeling has left my arms and hands.
The pains never come in my Shout
ders and neck any mora, and I am
glad to say am free of the misery
from which I suffered for a long
time. My health is built up in gen
eral, and 1t was Konjola that did It
all, so 1T is a pleasure for me to in
dorse such a medicine"

of trying to find something. the idea
of being under water will be for
gotten.
Breathing is perhaps the biggest
thing to learn in swimming. The
swimmer must expect his face to be
under water for much offthe time
while he is swimming. Therefore
the novice should be prepared for
that. Breath should always be taken
in through the mouth ana expelled
through the nose. This permits the
.exhalation to occur after the head is
under water.
Try the ducking exercise and
breathing together. Inhale through
the mouth and then put the head
beneath water and exhale. Go slow
ly at first and keep at it until the
hang of it is attained. Get used to
it in quiet water until it is the nat
ural thing to do.

LEWIS REFUSES
Head of Miners Union Declines to Readjust Wage Contracts in Southwestern Districts.

Kansas City. May 8 CP'-John L., Lewis, president of the United Miners of America, has rejected a request of southwest coal operators for a readiustment Of their wage contract with the union.
 Correspondence with the union chief was made public last night by W. l.. Johnson, general commission CT Of the Southwest Coal Operators association.
 In declining q reconsideration Of the contract, Mir. Lewis wrote:
 Certain factors, more or less in nature, have operated 10 the disad- vantage Of the industry in the sonth- west the demoralizine effect of such influences cannot be properly charS- cd 10 the wage rates. It is obvious that the United Mine Workers of America could not agree to a modi- fication of rates in the southwest without agreeing to similar modifica- tions throughout the entire United States. IL is equally obvious a gen cral lowering of wages would not place the southwestern districts in any more advantageous position than they now occupy"
 The present wage scale was signed in May 1924. and expires April 30, 1927. The southwest field comprises Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Ok lahoma.

 Procedure

Passaic, x. J.. May LP)-Textile strikers are determined to maintain a picket line at the Forstmann and Huttmann plant at Clifton at any cost.
