In almost every neigh borhood somoone. has died from it be fore medicine could be obtained or physician summoned. The right way is to have a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house so as to be prepared - for it. Mrs. Charles Enyeart, Huntington, Ind., writes: "During the summer of 1911 two of my children were taken sick with cholera morbus. I used Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy and it gave them immediate relief." Adv.

(Specal) Ed win Denby, age 47, probably the most distinguished American to enlist in the ranks at the first call to arms, was promoted to the rank of Corporal m the United States Marine Corps today. Mr. Denby was a member of congress from 1!)04 to 1911, former President of the local Board of Com merce, and a prominent attorney of this city. Corporal Denby, who is undereoincr military training at Port Royal, S. C, headed the list in a competitive ex amination open to all members of his company. His enlistment as a private in the Marine Corps caused consider able comment when he expressed the belief that he could serve his country best as an enlisted man. which she dipped black bread. I was directed to her with my re quest for a pass to the Soldiers' and Workmen s-Cbuncil. When she had finished her soup, she called a soldier, who carried a rifle, and directed him to lake me to the proper office for pastes. As I left, she was ordering another soldier to remove her soup plate. The soldier led me to another of fice and there presented me to a wom an who as to appearance might have been Emma Goldman herself. This woman looked at my passports, said something in Russian to another sold ier, who led me to another office and got me the paper I required. It must be remembered that it was two women who had the say as to my admittance to this gathering of the people, of Russia. My final experi ence seemed to me like asking Emma Goldman for a pass to the national dramatic convention. I have simply cited these instances to show that the women are equals of the men ki the New Russia. Today that equality was even more strikingly illustrated by the celebra tion of May Day. The workers of Russia, following the long-established custom of all Europeans (which they, themselves, in the days of the Czar never dared to observe) remained ab sent from work and paralyzed Rus sia into an enforced holiday. And there were as many women as there were men in the parade. Many marched arm in arm with men com rades, and the voices of hundreds of thousands of iwomero mingled with those of as many men in the chant of the Internationalist Socialists' Union. It's true that women rank with men in the new Russia. It doesn't seem to have occurred to anybody that there might be any question about it. .is- -- Vs. x IP Mi : in J excursions ROUND TRIP TICKETS s . : AT REDUCED FARts i ; OK5ALE JUtY3and4 , , nET0nNUMnurot.y5 i T0POiNTSrcMoo ; MltE9ONRAILUNfe?0F ("AMERICAS Wll " UW?T J.
