Indiana Girl
is Rewarded

NTHEN children are weak and
w rundown, they are easy prey
to colds or children's diseases. So it IS
never wise to neglect those weaken
ing and depressing symptoms, such
as bad breath, coated tongue, fretful-
ness, feverishness. biliousness, lack of
energy and appetite. etc.
Nine times out of ten these things
point to one trouble-constipation.
Mothers all around you are coming
right out in public to tell how their
children are being relieved of this
trouble by California Fig Syrup.
Mrs. Ray Bundy. Of 245 South
Randolph Street, Indianapolis, SAYS:
"A neighbor told me about it, so
decided to give Margie some Cali
fornia Fig Syrup when / saw by her
bad breath, coated tongue and fever
ishneSs that she was constipated.
She has been more than rewarded
for taking Fig Syrup. 1t made her a
well, happy girl promptly. She never
complains of any symptoms of con-
stipation now"

Telephone Ethics.

One of the largest industrial corpo-

out neat little texts to its patrons,
dealing with various subjects tending
to increase the relationship between
the company and the people doing
business with it. One Of these mes
sages was devoted to the ethics Of the
telephone, and in it, attention is called
to the fact that communication in this
manner Is greatly facilitated by speaking
slowly in a moderate tone with the mouth
about one inch from the transmitter.
When the voice is pitched in the higher
tones it is very difficult to hear with

The fact that the general averages had
by several points gone below the
previous figure CT June 2 created an
impression that support was being with
held and that the trend of the market
is toward lower level.
The selling movement spent its force
during the first hour and subsequently
there was a moderate rally. Trading,
however, slowed down materially as
prices advanced. The heaviness of the
public utility group was related to an
unusually sharp decline in the figures
of electrical production. The new dis
cussion of activities on the part of
Legislatures and by Congress compelI-
ing greater regulation of the power and
light companies was inevitable, with
their securities, which had held apart
from the industrials and rails, finally
being affected by the same contagion
that has run through the rest of the
