Bill 'Would Make Every
Corporation File Earnings
That every corporation be com
pelled to report to the state corpor
ation commissioner ai waiea
vals the amount of its earnings Is
said to be the purport of a bill be
ing prepared for Introduction at the
next session of the legislature. One
argument being made for the bill.
It Is understood. Is that it would
furnish a more stable basis than at
present foi the adjustment of wage
disputes. While the public service
commission is informed generally
relative to the earnings of utility
corporations, the proposed law would
apply to all forms of corporations.
One argument being urged against it
is that It would give any corporation
opportunity to go to the corporation
commissioner's office and ascertain
the earnings of a competitor.

CONSERVE
YOUR HEALTH
Conservation seems to be one of
the most important words in the
American language today. Every
citizen is requested to. as a matter of
patriotism, conserve his food, light.
fuel, etc. It seems to us that the
most Important feature has been
overlooked. Conserve your health.
This should be the-attitude taken by
every loyal American citizen at this
time. Life was never worth more
than it is today, healthy men and
women are needed as never before
have they been needed. - Health Is
the greatest "boon of humanity and
every one is entitled to It. Don't
be foolish and wait until your body
is racked with pain before you con
suit a Chiropractor. Take time by
the forelock and right now. when
you are apparently in the best of
health, rugged and strong, call upon
your Chiropractor, ask him to make
an examination and ascertain If yon
have a good healthy spine. It wi.l
cost you nothing and will be the
means of giving, you much satisfac
tion. If there is any nerve pressure
however slight, have the trouble ad
iusted before you get really ill. It
will save you money, it will save you
hours of pain, it will saTe your loved
ones much worry and It will enable
you to shoulder your responsibilities
as a strong, healthy citizen snouia
Accordingly, we say to you emphat
ically, "Conserve Your Health."

Claiming that the man whom he

away from the establishment. 11. L.
Still yesterday made a complaint
aaginst F. F. Rirhter. asking that
the circ'ilt court lsue an injunction
to curt.ill his activities. The plain
tiff aio withes to have the contract
which the two signed cancelled.
Stiff says he entered into an agree
ment with Rlchter on January 8.
1918. whereby Rlchter was to han
dle the business of the store, but the
owner was to furnish the goods, rent
al, employes and pay all expenses.
Instead of attending to te firm's
business, he now says Rlchter Is di
verting the trade to other channels,
urging customers to wait until he
cpens a store of his own.. He also
claims Rlchter Is accepting profits
on roods belonging to the stock.
