President's Summer Capital May Be
Lucky For Him
Long Beach, N. J., July 20. Presi
dent Wilson will arrive here soon to
occupy the summer capital, "Shadow
Lawn," and receive formal notifica
tion of his nomination. His sojourn in
this heretofore unlucky mansion
should be lucky if his lucky number is
still working, for this is the thirteenth
year since the magnificent place built
by the late John A. McCall of the New
York Life Insurance company, in 1903,
was opened.
Onlv misfortune followed the three
persons who have previously lived
here.
McCall, who spared no expense and
who is credited with having spent a
million dollars on "Shadow Lawn" and
its sixty-five acres of ground, beauti
fied with over fifty thousand dollars
worth of shrubbery and trees, and
containing an artif ical lake and a fifty
thousand dollar 'stable and garage,
spent only one season in the big white
building on the hill before troubles
came thick upon him.
Joseph White, the Texas postage
stamp millionaire, who founded his
fortune on a bid for bonds in the sec
ond Cleveland administration, made it
his home for several years before his
financial collapse.
J. B. Greenhut, the New York mer
chant prince, who next purchased it,
last year became a bankrupt. But
the superstitious say the rule of three
having been followed to the end, the
hoodoo now is broken. Besides, "13"

ine nopes oi Lang ueacn ana it
wealthy summer colony have long
centered in the place being tho Sum
mer White House. It has been re
garded as almost too pretentious and
dignified for a mere private residence.
Shadow Luwn today is a Mecca for
motorists, and is visited by hundreds
of sight-seers daily. From the upper
stories may be seen the summer homes
of Presidents Grant and Garfield on
the ocean, less than a mile away. An
idea of the size of the building may
be gained from the fact that twenty
five telephones have been installed for
the convenience of the President's
household. '
Last fall former Senator Jones
Smith, Jr., made the suggestion that
it was ideally located for the Presi
dent's headquarters in a national cam
paign. Credit for bringing the summer
White House to Long Beach is partic
ularly due to these New Jerseyites':
B. li. Robbitt, State auditor and editor
of the Long Beach Record; Dr. George

Constipation and Indigestion.
"I have, used Chamberlain's Tablets

indigestion nd they did her good,"

and gentle in their action. Give them

Prayers Modified.
London, June 26. (By mail). A
British army chaplain returned from
France today told of stopping at a
wayside shrine in Flanders, where
Belgian soldiers, kneeling in prayer,
were following the chant of their
priest until t)he father started the
Paternoster. At the words: "As we
forgive those who trespass against
us," there was silence. Not a man
replied. v-
The priest, hesitated . and started
again. Suddenly a steady voice rang
out from the back, clearly intoning
th words that pledge one to forgive
his enemies. It was the voice of Al
bert, King of tflie Belgians. His sol
diers then repeated after him, word
for word.

Submarine Venture Worries British.
'Baltimore, Md., July 21 The giant
U-Boat DeutscMand, which made his
tory by cruising from Germany to
this oort with a $700,000 cargo of
merchandise, is scheduled to start
back to Germany today with a cargo
of badly needed supplies for the
Fatherland. If, as the promoters of
the commercial company that built
the DeutscMand claim, this is only
the beginning of undersea' commerce
between the tow countries, the
British blockade has not only
been permanently pierced, but Great
Britain faces a crisis in her
commercial export trade, according
to what is being said and done in
London. Some time before the
Deutschland arrived at this port, the
merchants and manufactures of Eng
land were frightened by the seeming
ly authentic report that Germany bad
stored up $1,800,000,000, or nearly
two billion dollars worth of goods
readv to dumo on tho markets of the
world after the war. The Britishers
organized at once the Association of
Trade Protective societies, with 50,
000 members and adopted a resolu
tion urging the government to help
head off the flood of German goods
through the establishment and oper
ation of a Ministry of Commerce.
Should the undersea commerce ven
ture of Germany, while the war still
is in progress, prove practical on a
big scale, England will be powerless
to crush the Teutonic commercial
competition and will, it is believed,
face a serious situation in dealing
witfh her world markets, particularly
after the war and somewhat immed
iately. Chicago King of Chance Betting..

Rather than attempt comparison in the mind, place the goods side by
side. It is the only safe way, for whenever unreasonably low prices
are given by skimping quality, the user must certainly lose in the
end. The quality of Hub sample merchandise has such a well known
high standard, that emphasizing tlw fact is not necessary. Yet we
