PHILA. SHOPMEN
TO JOIN STRIKE
Disregard Wage Board’s
Promise of Early
Decision
PHILADELPHIA, June 26.—De
spite the railroad labor board's an-1
nouncement of an early adjustment |
of the railway employees’ grievances'
and that their decision would be re-J
troaetive to May 1, the Pennsylvan
ia railroad shopmen here were re-j
ported early today to have voted to
join the walkout of yardmen. The
.shopmen have no connection with the
railroad brotherhoods, but are affilia-|
ted with the American Federation of;
Labor.
DECISION PROMISED
BEFORE JULY 20.
CHICAGO, June 26—A decision on
the demands of railroad employees'
lor wage increases will be on i
or before July 20, by the railroad,
labor board, Judge R. M. Barton '
chairman, said in a statement last;
evening. The award will be retro- 1
active to May 1, the statement said.;
According to W. G. Lee, president;
of the Brotherhood of Railway Train-1
men and spokesman for union lead-;
ers who gathered here, the board’s'
•declaration would end all danger of;
a general railroad strike.
Mr. Lee said that secret plans had
been made by a disaffected union ele
ment to spread the strike throughout,
the country because of the contin-,
xied delay in announcing the wage
ruling.
“The men would have quit at mid-;
night Saturday night,” Mr. Lee said.;
‘“lt was impossible to hold them lon-.
ger, men of my organiaztion have,
been waiting patiently for nearly a'
year.”

Small Investment Brings Big Return
—Mr. Weaver’s Plan is Simple.
“I bought a package of Dr. Le-

dealer and after feeding it to my
Jersey Cow, she increased from 6
quarts to 12 quarts of milk per day,
and after continuing the Powders for
30 days longer, she increased in but
ter fat from 5 pounds to 10 pounds
per week, and at the end of 5 months
she was making 12 pounds of butter
fat per week.”—L. B. Weaver, Grand
Rapids, Mich.
Mr. Weaver followed the advice of
Dr. LeGear and is money ahead. You
can get the same results. Get Dr.
LeGear’s Stock Powder from your lo
cal dealer; feed it to your horse, milk
cows, steers, hogs and sheep as direct
ed. Satisfaction or money back.—Dr.

OLD RESIDENT NEAR DEATH
“I had not eaten food for 10 days
and was slowly starving to death.
Given up by five doctors I tried a
bottle of Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy
which gave relief at once. I am 75
years old and would have died but
for your wonderful medicine. The
jaundice is all gone and I am gain
ing appetite and strength every day.”
It is a simple, harmless preparation
that removes the catarrhal mucus
from the intestinal tract and allays
the inflammation which causes prac
tically all stomach, liver and intesti
nal ailments, including appendicitis.
