LIFE IN MINES
TRIES A MAN
Story of One Who Made Work
Pleasure

Working far below the surface of
1.-THE earth in a mine, with dust in the
air and water under foot, tries the
health of the strongest. People who
work in these surroundings suffer
| frequently from general run down
condition that grows worse. Usual
ly this begins with a cold that hangs
on, becoming chronic and leading to
catarrh. The same mucous men,
brane that lines the nose and throat
lines the stomach and bowels, and
after awhile it too is affected. Thea
food does not taste right, nothing
seems to agree and sleep is not rest
full. Left to itself, this catarrhal
condition will usually spread all
through the body, communicating the
blood and weakening different Or
gans.
Worlds Tonic was intended to
meet just such conditions. The ex-
perience of thousands has proved
| that the worlds research, extend
ing over many years, that led to
Worlds Tonic, brought together just
the medicines intended to overcome
these conditions.
Mr.. Fred Stephens, a miner at
Crooksville, o., says. he was so run
down with catarrh that work was a
| terror to him, and he felt so weak
| that he could only drag himself
about. When he got up in the morn
ing his head and throat were full
and stuffy, and he had to cough it
all loose before he could get started.
His food rarely agreed with him,
and after working an hour or two
he felt all in. Only sheer necessity
kept him going. He had family to
support and could not quit. But he
and his wife felt it was only ques-
tion of little time until he could
work no more, and the prospect was
not pleasing.
Just at this critical time he read
about Worlds Tonic. Like most
people, he doubted, but his wife
wanted him to try it. Mr.. Stephens
says: 81 had taken about half of the
first bottle before / felt any effect.
Then I noticed that I was not hav-
ing so much trouble with my food,
and my appetite seemed to improve
a little. My bowels acted more reg
ularly. The bad taste was less no.
IiCCdUIC Ill LILY ulouJA. 6OL dllOtu-
er bottle. BY the time / had taken
lit was sleeping SO much better
that I felt rested in the morning,
and my food gave me strength. But
it took nearly five bottles before the
great results were accomplished. My
head cleared up; my eyes brighten
ed. / quit that hawking and spit
ting, and felt ten years younger
and full of pep. I believe Worlds
Tonic saved me my job, made life
worth living and brought me back
to the kind of health that makes
work pleasure"
Many hundreds of once-sick peo-
pie have had this same, happy ey
perience. Why should you continus
to drag yourself around half sick
when you can obtain Worlds Tonic
at Stanbery, Sears, McConnelsville;
Harris, Malta, or any other first
class drug store?

REALTY LICENSES
TO Be PROTESTED
Real Estate Commission
Gets Notices on a "HaIf
Dozen" Persons.

Notices that protests would be made
against the granting of licenses to
half dozen" District real estate sales
men or brokers have been filed with
the newly created District Real Estate
Commission, it was announced today
by John A. Petty, commission secre-
tary.
Requests that they be notified if
the statesmen or brokers applied for
permits, so they might appear before
the board to specify their objections,
were made by the District residents in
their communications to the commits
sion, Mr.. Petty said. If the complaints
prove to be of serious nature the COM
mission probably will set the cases
down for formal public hearings, Mr..
Petty said, but he added that the COM
mission could use its discretion.
He said he could not reveal in ad-
vance of a formal case the names of
either the prospective objectors or the
real estate brokers or statesmen men,
toned in the letters.
The law creating the commits
sion sets up long list of acts for
which the commission may suspend,
revoke or deny license.
Granting of licenses is to be started
soon. Mr.. Petty said the commits
sion now had distributed about 400
sets Of application forms to real
estate brokers or statesmen. Under
the law, licenses must be issued by
November % to all who are to con-
tinue in business.
Just how many persons will obtain
licenses Mr.. Petty said he did not
know, but he estimated there are some
1000 statesmen and brokers listed in
the real estate section of the tele-
phone directory.
The District Commissioners today
paved the way for issuance of licenses
by approving set of regulations gov
erning the operations of the Real Es-
tate Commission, which had been
adopted by that commission and ap-
proved by Corporation Counsel Ell
wood H. Seal For the most part,
they are restatement of the provi-
sions of the Real Estate License Act.

SMITHSONIAN NOTES
NEW EVOLUTION IDEA
Annual Report Presents British
Scientists Challenge to Ira
ditional Concept.

BY the Associated Press
A British scientists challenge of
traditional concepts of evolution and
heredity won formal notice yesterday
from the Smithsonian Institution.
In its annual report the institution
presented the theory of Prof. w. P.
Pycraft, British zoologist, that the
body molds itself by diverting food,
and hence growth. to those organs
most stimulated in its ordinary activi-
ties.
This theory. the institution said.
represents IAN alternative for the
whole Mendelian hypothesis of heredity
and advances the idea of evolution
through use of organs as a supplement
to the Darwinian scheme of evolution
through natural selection and the
Lamarckian concept of revolution
through environment"
Pycraft contends. the report con-
tinued, that neither the Darwinian
nor Lamarckian theories are sufficient
to explain the enormous diversity of
animal forms.

JUDGE AND COUNSEL
EXCHANGE WORDS
Mattingly Orders 0'Dea to Pro-
duce 36 Released After Raid
and O'Dea Refuses.

Relations between Police Judge Rob-
ert E. Mattingly and Assistant Cor
poration Counsel John O'Dea were
somewhat strained today as result OF
sharp words exchanged in court yes
terday over the aftermath OF a dice
game raided by police.
Judge Mattingly was informed by
police that the corporation counsefs
officer had refused to issue complaints
against some So persons arrested in
the raid and released on collateral.
Four more taken in the game and un-
able to post bail had been convicted by
Judge Mattingly Monday ana sent to
jail
The Judge ordered the prosecutor to
have the other defendants brought be-
fore him. O'Dea said he couldn't do
it, because he had already issued mo
papers" slips.
!, AS Mr.. O'Dea started to leave the
court room Judge Mattingly called to
him. repeating his demand that the
alleged crapshooters be produced. The
prosecutor retorted that he already
had acted and would take no further
part in the cases. He then left the
room.
A report on the episode was made to
Corporation Counsel Elwood H. Seal
today. Another assistant in his office
said the courts had no authority to
order up case dropped by the prose-
cutor's office.
