WASHINGTON, Sept. 16 Completion of new wage scales for all Navy-yards and arsenals was announced today by the special joint war-navy-labor com mittee. The revision, which becomes ef fective as soon as new payrolls can be prepared, Is said to make an average Increase in maximum rates of nearly 10 per cent, and much greater advances in the scale for the lowest grades of Skilled labor.

Heretofore most of the skilled trades have been graded into Ave rates, the men la the lowest rates receiving often time more than unskilled labor. "Hereafter there will be but three rates, the lowest to be paid not more than 11.04 per diem less than the first class men. For instance, if the top rate for machinists is J4-64 a day, the third rate must be at least (3.60, instead of as at present in some cases as low as 3.4." Pnget Sound Pay Highest. The increases given in the maximum rates will be found to average nearly 10 per cent. In some cases the recom mendations of the local Navy-yard, as in the case oT some trades ai Fuget Siund, have been slightly reduced in view of the abnormal situation in that locality, which is out of line with the rest of the Nation; the scale given by the committee shows, nevertheless, an actual larger percentage of increases and a higher maximum of pay than in any other Navy-yard on either coast. In other cases, notably Mare Island and New Tork, the Increases given are greater than the recommendations of the local authorities. Adjusters to Be Sent Out. The committee has approved the recommendations of the commanding officer at the arsenals. At certain of the arsenals in certain trades there re main appeals on which no decision has been reached. It is the Intention of the committee to visit the arsenals in person or to send representatives to adjust all outstanding questions. LIFE LIKE FAIRY STORY AILEE.T ALLAN .HARRIES WEALTHY RUSSIAN.

It Is these little bodies that carry nourishment to tbe tissues. They also cause tbe flow of health in cheeks and lips. When the blood is deficient In these red corpuscles tbe person not only be comes pale, but the body is tinder nourished, tbe weight is usually re duced and as the nerves share in the general starvation some form of nerv ousness follows. When the blood is Improved in quality - the tissues are better nourished and all the functions of the body are better performed. When the blood lacks red corpus cles it is a scientific fact that a course of treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink p-llls will cause them to increase. This can be demonstrated by a microscroplo examination and anyone can prove it by looking In a mirror, for an Increase in red blood shows quickly in tbe cheeks and especially - In the lining membranes of the eyelids.
