The body is a highly orgtnhnd.
machine of complicated parts in
which the stomach, liver and the
kidneys work for the common good.
Damage to any one of these organs
interferes with man as a motor
mechanism. If you clean the stom
with a gentle laxative you can
keep well. Too much fuel in man’s
machine, such as eating too muech
meat, or alcohol or tea, nervous
overwork and lack of exercise in
outdoor air bring constipation and
bad health. Eat less meat, plenty
of vegetables, and with air and good

made himself the <X V:.

escort of the New York party.
Mayor Hylan and Mr. Hearst came
to Baltimore as the gmests of the
great Southern Commercial Congress,
holding its tenth and the most bril
liant of all tts annual sessions in the
Monumental City. Mayor Hylan was
the most distinguished figure in the
great conference of the Mayors of the
great American cities, and Mr. Hearst
was present upon an invitation to be
one of the chief speakers at the
crowning event of the Congress—the
great banquet to the diplomatic rep
resentatives of the Allied Govern
ments on Wednesday evening.
Mr. Hearst was not a figure on the
program, but in response to an ur
gent desire In the audience he was
introduced by Mayor Preston, who
paid ecordial tribute to Mr. Hearst as
A man, as a great publicist and
gtatesman, and as an essentlal and
uncompromising American among
Americans.,
Mr. Hearst’'s speech was absolutely
‘lmprnmwu and very brief, but it
went to the core of things and was
received with cordially expressed ap
proval by the great and representa
tive audience of American publiclsts
and executives. Among other things
Mr. Hearst sald:

They Lay in a Supply Each Fall.
Best Medicine for Whoop
ing Cough,
For sudden attacks of croup, colds,
whooping cough, sore throat, pains in
the chest and bronchitis take frequent
Coses of Cheney's Expectorant. W, E,
Morrow, of this city, states that every
member of his family takes Cheney's
Expectorant. He says: "It is my cus
tom to lay in a supply when the first
cold wave cgmes, and when any one
of us begins to cough or teel sore
ness in the jungs, a dose of Chenev's
Expectorant is given, and I have never
known it to fail to give reilef to young
or old, Ernest Barrett states that he
had such a bad ¢ough that when he
would cough he could hardly get his
breath. “1 would take a dose of
Cheney's Expectorant and the cough
would stop at once.” Cheney's Ex

changed what threatened to be a dis
astrous defeat into an overwhelming
victory,
Backs Greater Navy.
“The same leader of public opinion
said that England ought to continue
to have the greatest navy in the
world, and that we ought to permit
her to have the greatest navy In the
world, and ourselves be content to
take second place,
“l don’t think the United States
ought to be content to take second
place in anything. I don’'t know of
anything that the Uinted States needs
more than the greatest navy in the
world, the greatest merchant marine
in the world, and the greatest port
facilities for that navy and that mer
chant marine,
“l am merely one citizen in one
hundred million. But I have certain
interests in cities on the seacoasts of
the United States and in inland cities
of the United States. 1 shall unite
them both and pledge their unified
support to the projects which you
have discussed here this morning.”
Both Mr. Hearst and Mayor Hylan
were emphatic in the advocacy of a
strong national and foreign policy for
“America First.”
Congratulations and cordial greet
tngs were extended to Mayor Hylan
and Mr. Hearst when the conference
was concluded, and their stay in Bal
timore has been in the nature of a
continuous ovation. If any American
‘has any doubt of the failure of the
futile and flat propaganda against
the Americanism of Mr. Hearst this
cordial, brilliant day lin Baltimore
would definitely write its quietus,
Mayor Hylan and Mr. Hearst sat as
guests of Mr. Preston through the
notable midday luncheon to the press
of the Allies. Mayor Hylan presided
in impresgive fashion over the after
noon session of the American Mayors
and the Mayor and Mr. Hearst were
honor guests at the banquet of the
Mayor of Baltimore at his stately
mansion on Charles street,
Talks With Reporters.
Interviewed by the eager reporters
of the Baltimore papers, upon the fu
tile effort of certain American “inter
agts” to impugn his Americanism, Mr.
Hearst met the queries with smiling
good humor,
Asked whether he had anything to
say concerning the pro-German
charges against him in the senatorial
investigation now being made into the
German propaganda - system, Mr.
Hearst sald:
“I really have nothing to say yet. I
am simply sitting tight and letting
the fellows in Washington do the
talking. And in the end I may let it
pass, There ls a great deal that 1
cmx say, and when they get through
do there it may be the part of wis
dom for me to reply. But the inves
tigation isn’t bothering me in the
least. You see. after all, it isn’t very
imporfant—at least, it isn't so far as
I am concerned in it.”
Mr. Hearst said he was going to
sperd two or three days in Baltimore
and that afterward he might go over
to Washington. He had not decided
yet about the Washington trip.
Mayor Hylan said he was in Balti
more only for the fi"m”‘ of making
his speech at the Mayors' conference.

John T. Collier, City Marshal, filling
the unexpired term of James M. Fuller,
appeared before the tax committee of
Council Wednesday afternoon and an
nounced that he had succeeded in col
lecting $09,000 of the $363,000 unpaid!
taxes turned over to him for collection
when he assumed the office in Novem
ber. Mr. Collier sald he expected to
collect most of the remainder before
the end of the month, and that unless
the tax papers held in his office were
taken up by December 25, he intended
to proceed with the transfer of the prop
erty involved. ‘
These taxes constitute a large part of
the city’s anticipated revenue for 1918
on which many agproprmuons have been
tased. Unless the money is forthcom
ing before January 1, the shortage nec
essarily will be saddled upon the in
coming administration, which already
ras estimated its expenditures almost up
to the limit of anticipated revenue In
1919. ‘
Alderman Jonas H. Ewing, chairman
of the tax committee, again made the
statement which he frequently has made
on the floor of Council, that there are
18,000 men in the city of Atlanta whese
names are not to be found on the tax
books, and, at hls request, the com
mittee voted authority to the tax as
sessor's office to augment its froce in
order to round up these tax dodgers,
1 fas immediately will be placed in the
hands of the City Marshal for service
against all known tax deltnquents and
every effort will be made to brlns into
the city treasury all the money due it
before the close of the year.
