After Long Suffering Mrs. Siefert
Was Restored to Health by
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound
Potts ville, Pa.-“I suffered with
female trouble for four or five years and
very '|i rc ® u^a f‘
am now able to do my work. I recom
mend the Vegetable Compound to my
friends and you may use these facts as a
testimonial. ’—Mrs. Sallie Siefert,
313 W. Fourth Street, Pottsville, Pa.
The everyday life of many housewives
is a continual struggle with weakness
and pain. There is nothing more wear
ing than the ceaseless round of house
hold duties and they become doubly hard
when some female trouble makes every
bone and muscle ache, and nerves all on
edge.
If you are one of these women do not
suffer for four or five years as Mrs.
Siefert did, but profit by her experience
and be restored to health by Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.

LIMIT OF 175,000
~ IN SIZE OF ARMY
SENATE SETS ASIDE PREVIOUS
DECISION FOR 150,000
LIMIT
WILL BE REDUCED GRADUALLY
Present Strength Of 225,000 Will Soon
Shrink To The Required
Number
Washington.—Congress has voted to
limit the size of the regular army to
175,000 enlisted men.
The senate by a vote of 41 to 3S
set aside its recent decision to reduce
the army to 150,000 men and then,
without a record vote, adopted the
original joint resolution of Senator
New of Indiana, directing the secre
tary of war to stop recruiting until
the army is cut to one hundred and
seventy-five thousand men.
The house, ten minutes later, adopt
ed a point resolution sponsored by
the chairman of the military affairs
committee, also directed the secretary
of war to cease enlistments until there
are not more than one hundred and
seventy-five thousand enlisted men in
the regular establishment. The house
vote was 285 to 4, only four represen
tatives—Bee of Texas, Blackmon of
Alabama, and Coady of Maryland,
Democrats, and Cramton of Michigan
Republican, standing out against the
reduction.
The resolutions adopted by the two
houses are almost identical in their
provisions, each providing that the
175,000 limit shall not prevent the re
enlistment of men who have served
one or more enlistments in the mili
tary service.
The language of the two measures,
however, differs somewhat and either
the senate or the house will send its
resolution to conference for re-arrange
ment. Action by the joint conference
committee of the two houses is expect
ed to be taken speedily and the re
sultant measure will go to the presi
dent.
The action of the two housees was
taken against the recommendations
of war department heads and General
Pershing.
No reason for the change has been
announced, but some senators said
privately that they believed the pres
ident would sign a resolution .placing
the future army at 175,000 men, hut
would not approve a small number
GOMPERS RE-ELECTED HEAD
OF PAN-AMERICAN FEDERATION
OF LABOR, AT MEXICO CITY
Mexico City.—Samuel Gompers was
re-elected president of the Pan-Amer
ican Federation of Labor. His elec
tion followed a three-hour debate in
which there was a split among the
delegations, the Mexicans, Salvadore
ans and Guatamalans voting against
the unanimous acceptance of the res
olution nominating Mr. Gompers.
Although some of the Guatamalan,
Salvadorean and Mexican delegations
energetically opposed’ Mr. Gompers,
the solid American, Santo Domingo
and Porto Rico ballots swung the lead
ers in line when it appeared that Mr.
Gompers would be voted down.
A difference concerning the Santo
Domingan question was compromised.
The congress voted that Mr. Gompers
should send a note to President Wil
son merely requesting that the evacu
tion of Dominica be accelerated.
The next session will be held in
Guatamala City.
Revived Corporation Now Functioning
Washington.—The war finance cor
poration, revived by an act of con
gress, which was passed over Presi
dent Wilson’s veto, is now function

ed to consider applications for loans
to finance exports in the same man
ner that it considered advances prior
to the suspension of its activities last
may. In so far as necessary, the cor
poration said, personal hearings will
be given to prospective borrowers. In
submitting applications for loans ap
plicants should set forth in deatil all
facts relating to their financial con
dition, the purposes of the proposed
advance and full information to enable
the corporation to determine whether
the applicants are eligible under the
law to receive loans.

First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk -
Purgative With Calotabs, the

Tablets that are Nausea- t

Doctors have found by erperiene*
that no medicine for colds and influ-*
enza can be depended upon for full ef
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the firstr
step in the treatment is the new, nausea-1
less colomel tablets called Calotabs,.
Which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style calo- ~
mel. Doctors also point out the fact]
that an active liver may go a long way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en
abling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu

Of State Interest
Columbus. —The destruction of sev

capacity, and the confiscatlo nof 8,000
gallons of beermash, resulted from
raids made by county officers and
deputy sheriffs of Muscogee county.
Five of these outfits were located
less than a mile apart, a short dis
tance from the Harrjs county line.
No arrests were made.
Atlanta. —Three of the six men, ar
rested by the Memphis police in a re
cent hotel raid and believed to be im
plicated in the swindling syndicate
that operated in Atlanta were brought
to the tower recently, following an ex
citing experience encountered when
they spirited the prisoners away from
the Tennessee city to avoid service
of habeas corpus papers to prevent
the extradition.
Atlanta. —A man believed to be R.
E. Burge, dropped dead in a grocery
store after ordering groceries. He
reeled and fell as the clerk was giv
ing him his order. The body was
identified by Ed Thompson, proprie
tor of the Postol hotel, as that of R.
E. Burge, who was formerly employed
as night clerk at the hostelry. A let
ter in one of the man’s pockets bore
the name and address of R. & Burge,
S 3 Edgewood avenue, Atlanta, Ga., it
is stated. The body was removed to
an undertaker’s for burial.
Pembroke. —The National Bank of
Pembroke was robbed of about twen
ty-five thousand dollars worth of lib
erty bonds, taken from the safety de
posit boxes. The burglars entered the
bank by a rear door, obtaining the
bonds, but could not get into the vault,
which contained nearly one hundred
thousand dollars worth of cash and
notes. After taking the bonds the
thieves “jimmied” their way out by
the front door, and it is believed that
they made their escape by means of
a handcar on the railroad.
Barnesville. —The First National
Bank at Barnesville held its annual
stockholders’ meeting, and the reports
made by the officers proved to he a
remarkable showing for the past
year’s business. The surplus account
was increased by $30,000, making its
surplus now SBO,OOO, with a capital of
$50,000 and an undivided profits ac
count of $17,400. A dviidend of 12
per cent was paid stockholders. The
officers and directors were re-elected
for another year as follows: W. B.
Smith, president; R. A. Stafford, vice
president; L. C. Tyrus, cashier, F. B.

Atlanta. —Seeking to establish
among the clergy of the Episcopal
church and the people generally a
guild for the healing of the sick,
Rev. Henry B. Wilson of Boonton,
N. J., held a conference recently with
Bishop H. J. Mikell, Dean Thomas H.
Johnson and other prominent Episco
pal clergymen. Mr. Wilson is the di
rector of the Society of the Nazarene,
and his visit to Atlanta is a part of
a tour of many Southern cities in
which he will wage an educational
campaign with reference to divine heal
ing. The conference was held at the
rector of St. Philip’s cathedral, and
it is understood that the plan for re
viving the practice of healing the sick
through the instrumentality of the
Christian clergy met instant favor
among the local Episcopal clergymen,
and it is believed that efforts will
be made at once to form guilds to
carry on the work. The membership
in the Society of the Nazarene is not
confined solely to the Episcopal con
gregation, nor to the ministry, but
is open to all.
Savannah. —The coroner’s jury in
