ARODYNE A RARE
MOUTH WASH

The Emerson Chemical Com
pany, locally owned pharma-
ceutical house is the manu-
facturer of Arodyne, an anti
septic mouth wash. This COM
pany, headed by Francis Clay
Wallace, operates on a national
basis with Washington the head
quarters.
The solution known as Aro-
dyne was compounded by
George w. Emerson, well.known
chemist. He arrived at his
formula after he found that
some so-called antiseptics had
no particular efficacy.
He compounded an antiseptic
solution containing iodine and
derivatives in combination with
other ingredients, which were
not contained in any other SO.
luton then on the market. The
result is, the product that the
Emerson organization now sell
locally and nationally.
After thorough tests this COM
pany purchased the original for
mula from Mr.. Emerson and
placed it on the market CONNER
cially. Arodyne has been sold
with the endorsement of not only
the public at large, but members
generally for about eight years,
during which time it has met
of the medical and dental pro-
fesSion use and prescribe it as
an antiseptic.
It is interesting to note that
prior to the firms present ad-
vertising campaign their sales
came from word of mouth ad-
vertising, resulting in their
slogan, "'Nationally Known on
Merit Alone" They are now
using The Washington Times
to increase their local distribu-
ton.

ket will affect the Canadian textile
manufacturers vitally and will have
little meaning for the United States
textile industry. Canada has done
about all the damage it can do to
American textiles by recent duties ana
special penalties.
Great Britain already is pushing
American anthracite out OF the Mon
treal market, however; and II 1t OBTAINS
even part of the additional go cents per
ton preference the British trade re-
quests, it should further diminish
American exports. But the TOTAL
American trade is not impressive.
The Canadian government today an
nounced that its customs service Will
value the pound sterling for special duty
purposes at S402-the lowest since Can
ada began using the exchange to keep
out foreign exports. At times the pound
has been valued as high as $4.40, to the
great injury of British exports to Can
ada. This new valuation appears to be
indicative of a new disposition to favor
British exporters as against foreign
competitors.
Another development considered i'm
portant in imperial circles is the formu-
lation of a program to carry on the
work of the Empire Marketing Board
when the British appropriation expires
some months hence. This is promo
tional organization for inducing Brit
ishers to buy Empire goods instead OF
foreign. The British government asks
the dominions to share the cost.

the set-up proposed by the roads them
selves some time ago.
One point at issue Is the commissions
suggestion that the Pennsylvania reiease
its stock control in New England roads,
notably the New York, New Haven &
Hartford. The Pennsylvania is opposed
to this idea. while the other three sys-
TENS. 1t is understood, believe the New
in merger discussions at this time.
In general, it Is believed New York
Central, Chesapeake & Ohio and Balti-
more and Ohio are willing to accept the
commissions plan, with the exception
of some details.
Executives representing Eastern,
Southeastern and Western railroads will
hold a Joint conference in Chicago to
discuss plans for a further reduction
in the wages of organized employees, it
was said in rail circles today
1t is expected the roads will consider
data and exhibits on living costs to be
used in proceedings under the railway
labor act for a reduction of at least 5
per cent additional to the 10 per cent
wage cut made on February l last
Such a program Is understood to have
been projected at the Eastern presi-
dents conference held here yesterday,
though no official confirmation of this
that the Eastern. Western and South
eastern arrangements have for more
than a month been accommodating ma
terial to bolster their drive for fur
ther wage adjustment.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
OTTAWA. August 12-Leaders of
the Imperial Economic Conference ap-
pear to be reaching agreements which
they will be able to construe as sue
cesSes" when reporting to their respec-
tive countries. The air Of tension and
crisis which prevailed for some days has
given way to almost effusive assurances
that satisfactory understandings are
being reached and that the conference
will break up about August 18 in an
atmosphere of good will.
As to the nature of agreements and
their advantages to the various mem
bers of the empire, conference spokes-
men are studiously vague. 1t is ex-
planned that the negotiations have not
been formally concluded and that some
of the more important decisions will
be kept secret, SO far as possible, until
submitted to the various parliaments
for conversion into laws.
Meantime, the air is full Of reports
of Scent preferences for Dominion
wheat, of 1i2 cents pound preference
in the British market for Australian
mutton and lamb with Argentine beef
left in its present favored poSition) and
of fresh concession to British iron and
steel and certain additional preferences
TO British textiles in the Canadian mar
ket.
Slight Effect for United States.
No information which has come to
light thus far suggests that agreements
reached here will radically diminish
American export trade as whole. Ger
tain American industries. however. will
have to extend their branch plants
within the empire if proposed measures
are put into force, while other indus
tries will perhaps lose empire trade of
considerable moment to them. however
small it looms in the national export
figures.
Likewise. individual industries within
the empire stand to gain additional
business, but the news thus far emerg-
ing here suggests no revolutionary i'm
provementS in empire commerce by vir-
tue of the Ottawa negotiations. Indeed,
private admissions by certain empire
delegates reveal disappointment at the
paucity of assured trade benefits in sight
for their constituents and considerable
anxiety as to how the boaSted achieve
ments can be made to look attractive to
the voters, who were led to expect so
much. The worry is largely responsible
for the delay of Australia in conclud-
ing an agreement with the United King
dom.
