Stop Chills
and Fever!
Rid Your System of Malaria!
Shivering with chills one moment and
burning with fever the next—that’s one
of the effects of Malaria. Unless checked,
the disease will do serious harm to your
health, Malaria, a blood infection, calls
for two things. First, destroying the in
fection in the blood. Second, building
up the blood to overcome the effects of
the disease and to fortify against further
attack.
Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic supplies
both these effects. It contains tasteless
quinine, which kills the infection in the
blood, and iron, which enriches and
builds up the blood. Chills and fever
soon stop and you are restored to health
and comfort. For half a century, Grove’s
Tasteless Chill Tonic has been sure relief
for Malaria. It is just as useful, too, as a
general tonic for old and young. Pleasant
to take and absolutely harmless. Safe to
give children, Get a bottle at any drug
store, Now two sizes—soc and sl. The

50c size and gives you 25% more for

Rough Men of the Sea Who Have
Passed Out of the Picture.
S. S. HAITI,
Colombian Line.
HEADED due south 1,366
miles without a stop; desti
nation, republic of Haiti, the is
land that produced Toussaint
L’Ouverture. most constructive
black man of all time; Christophe,
king, the slave who enslaved and
died by his own hand; Dessalines,
Emperor, assassinated and buried in
a coffee sack, to be afterward rein
terred and acclaimed as the founder
of Haiti’s independence. .
Just now Willlam Wall, chief officer
of this ship, is regaling me with tales
that but for men such as he would be
forgotten.
“And now that my mind is freshen
ing,” said Wall, a born tale spinner,
“Y am thinking of Mock Shaugnessy,
Liverpool dock walloper along the
Bootles section. When Mock was in
liquor it took from five to eight cops
to quell him, not that one quick
witted peeler could not have pasted
him with a buckthorn and called it
quits; but in those days, 20 years ago,
naked hands were considered sufficient
for the quelling of 222 offender.
Followed Jack Johnson.
“He could handle freight like no
body’s business. After Jack Johnson's
star began to set he turned up in
England and put on a series of one
round fights wherever he could get a
date, When he hit Liverpool Mock
Shaugnessy was pushed forward by the
dock wallopers. The negro agreed to
hand over five pounds to anybody whe
would stay in the ring one round. Pie
for Mock, who walked out at the sound
of the gong, grabbed hold of Johnson's
arms and began to roll him around 2s
he would a bale of cotton, never for a
second allowing the black man to get
his balance. Finally, when the bell
struck announcing the end of the round
Mock threw his arms around the ex
champion and held on like grim death
He wasn’t taking any chances then.
Johnson began to laugh; what else
could he do? ‘Ah guess you win,
mister,” h 2 said. ‘Nobody ain’t eveh
done dat to me befo.! You sure ils
handy at movin’ freight’ Early that
evening Mock had spent all his win
nings celebrating, and by midnight had
man-handled every cop along the wa
ter front.”
I suggested the inadvisability of any
man changing his style without a re
hearsal.
“Sure. As I was saying, there was
another tough lad who tipped the beam
at 260 and stood well over six feet,
wasn’t averse to looking for it at times.
Well, all right, along comes Big Joe
of Waterford, Ireland, skipper of the
topsail schooner Kate—you might call
her a brig—and signs him up to handle
some cargo. ‘They tell me you're
pretty tough,” says Big Joe, giving the
hard one the once over. ‘Ye haven’t
heard the half of it,’ says the bold Celt,
hitching his dungarees. And nothing
more was said on the subject until the
next day when he steps up to Joe &nd
begins to brag about how stiff a punch
he had—and would Joe like to sample
it. ‘l'm not of a mind to fight for
nothing, me friend, so what’ll it be for?
asked Joe. ‘Make yer own terms,”
says Mock. .
Double or Nothing.
“With that Joe offers the proposi
tion that sf the stevedore loses he
doesn’t get a cent for handling the
cargo. If he wins he is to be paid
double rates. Done. Both men
stripped to the waist and went behind
one of the dock houses, accompanied
by four neutral witnesses, of which T
was one. A fight to look upon; nothing
scientific, but bare knuckle, with nv
quarter. Everything went. Blood?
Umph, it lasted about ten minutes with
no intermission. Oh, boy! The steve
dore got second money, which ‘means
that he finished the cargo job without
pay, that’s all.”
“That all you've got to tell me about
men of the sea?”
“Not necessarily,” said the Chief
Officer. =
“In the English channel a stiff
blow hit us out of the nor’-east and
romped into a squall for which we
weren’t quite prepared. The sheet
of the gaff topsail became fouled in the
peak halyard of the mainsail. It was
impossible to take down either of
them and something had to be done
immediately. A man came forward at
the height of the blow and asked if he
could go aloft and try his luck at free
ing the sheet from the halyard.
Volunteer Was Nimble.
~ “Nothing I had ever seen on the
high seas equaled the dexterity and
fearlessness of this volunt, ¢. The
higher he went the more at home he
seemed. From the deck looking up
ward I could follow his movements
despite the spindrift and mist b ving
in the gale. I couldn’t see how he
could make the peak but he did and
while holding on by his legs wnd al
most by his teeth he freed the en
tanglement so that we were able te
reef the mainsail and the tops.”
“Some sailor,” I exclaimed. “Wouldn’t
you say so?”’
“No sailor at all. He was a civcus
performer; an aerial acrobat,” I . ad
later, replied Wall. an

PARTY DEFENSE
By JOSEPH T. ROBINSON
; Senator From lowa.
THIS administration is being
subjected to intense criticism,
which is understandable consider
ing the approach of next year’s elec
tion.
Our President has been charged with
everything from communism te des
potism, and yet you cannot pick up'a
daily paper that does not reflect a rise
in the stock market, an increase in
profits, a resumption of dividends; in
fact, every manifestation that tells of
a country beund back to prosperity. ...
It is my belief that when history
writes its review of the legislation of
this congress it will be made clear that
the laws enacted were for the greatest
good to the greatest number.
REPUBLICANS COULD
By COL. WILLIAM J. DONAVAN
Prominent Republican.
THE Republican party could
reduce Federal payrolls mate
rially without injuring the service.
It could return direct relief to local
and private agencies, It could stop
the absorption of credit and capital
for public plans and programs, many
of which are dead before the final bill
can be paid. Te sum it up, the Re
publican party could steer this gov
ernment back into those channels of
personal liberty, home rule, states’
rights and balanced authority which
have been demonstrated as dependable
during the last 150 years.
The Republican party can take a
definite, uncompromising stand for
those principles, standards and tradi
tions which have made this ceuntry
what it is and which cannot be ignored
without changing it into a different
kind of country. The issue fronting
us is clean-cut. Either we preserve
the United States as it was bequeath
ed to us and as we have known it or
we depart for fantastic adventures in
an unknown sea of guesswerk.

CANADIAN RECOVERY
By R. O. McCULLOCH
Insurance President.
AS YOU know, at the present
time we have cheap money,
and there is a great shortage in
heavy goods equipment. With low in
terest rates and a renewal of con
fidence, the stage is set for a com
plete recovery and the end eof the de
pression. Great Britain is an out
standing example. She balanced her
budget and confidence was restored
there, with the result that there is
prosperity in Great Britain, and her
unemployment has been reduced by
more than a million. Canada is a young
country which offers great opportuni
ties. Our natural rescurces are practi
cally unlimited, and we have a virile
people. I am convinced that we are
on the threshold of business expansion
greater than we have ever seen, and
that this will arrive as soon as con
fidence is re-established.
RADIO’S FUTURE
By GEORGE H. PAYNE
Federal Communic'ations Commissioner.
THE radio in this country is
practically entirely in the
hands of those interested solely in
its' commercial aspects. . . . 8
No matter how honest may have
been the original thought, there is
fundamental danger in the idea, more
or less casually advanced, that the
broadcasting business constitutes a
fifth estate in our government,
It is because the pecple, through
their governmex}t, will not tolerate the
creation of a fifth estate that they
have, in the exercise of their sovereign
ty, taken over the control of the air
‘and have passed the law regulating the
use of the air.
SILVER IN CHINA
~ By JAMES A. MOFFETT
Federal Housing Administrator.
STRONG international propa
) ganda is striving to place the
Washington silver policy in the
position of ruining China. The de
pression existing in Shanghal, suicides,
reduction in birth rate, floods, crep
failures and practically everything
detrimental which may occur seem to
be blamed on Uncle Sam and silver.
My impression is that China, as a
whole, is not as badly off as many
would have us think. Generally, it is
in better cendition than a year ago.
Shanghai presents a totally different
picture, suffering from the collapse of
a real estate boom which was arti
ficially developed when silver went
down, and quite out of line with the
fundamentals existing.
. SOCIALISM, COMMUNISM
By ALFRED E. SMITH
Former Governor of New York.
lT IS a great mistake to say we
have a property or privileged
class in this country. Lincoln said
preperty is only the fruit of labor.
We have false prophets no{\'adnys.
but we do not call them that. We call
them demagogues,
Socialism and communism stand in
violent opposition to everything we call
Christian and te everything we call
Awerican, _ I for one don't think that
they will get very far in this country,
because ‘t,he common people have too
wuch brains and sense and character.

Storage Solves Problem
of Surplus for Gardeners
Each year the average gardener
has a surplus problem. His garden
normally produces more vegetables
during the summer than he and his
family can consume.
This surplus—of little value in the
summer—can be used during the
winter in preparing a variety of
tasty and wholesome dishes if the
extra vegetables are properly stored
in cellars, attics, or other suitable
places. Storing of vegetables also
lightens the annual canning work.
Beets, late cabbage, carrots, cel
ery, onions, parsnips, potatoes, sweet
potatoes, salsify, pumpkins, squash,
and tarnips may be stored in-their
natural condition. Beans of various
kinds, Including the limas, may be
dried and stored.
A half-acre garden, according to
horticulturists of the United States
Department of Agriculture, will, if
properly cared for, produce enough
vegetables for year-around use by
the average family.
Cellars containing a furnace usu
ally are too warm and dry for stor
ing root crops, but a room may be
partitioned off in one corner or end
of the cellar and temperature con
trolled by means of outside windows.
Outdoor cellars may be built at a
low cost.

Nervous, Weak Woman

nervousness,” writes Mrs, Cora San
ders, of Paragould, Ark. “I was all
run-down and cramped at my time
until hwould have to go to bed. After
my first bottle of Cardui, I was bet
ter. I kept taking Cardui and soon
1 was all right. The shaking quit
and I did not cramp. I felt worlds
better. I gave Cardui to my daughter who
was in about the same condition and she
wasg soon all right.” ¥
Thousands of women testify Cardui bene
