Operation -Not Needed
Mr?. W. A. Barnes, who lives ID Ballard? Calif., has sont to the
Plans laboratories a very strong endorsement of Fruitola and
Traxo. lo her letter, Mrs. Barnes sayst
"Doctors say gall-Btonos cannot bo cured without
an operation, costing much money as well as un
necessary suffering. , I am cured, I know, and thia is
proof positive, and my friends know that such ls tho
case." ? .
Frnltola Is a powerful lubricant for the Intestinal organs, soften
lug tho hardened particles that cause so much suffering and expel
ling tho congested waste In an enBy, natural maimer.. .A single dose
is usually sufficient to clearly indicate Iis cfilcucy. Truxo Is a
splendid tonio alterative that ucla on tho liver and kidneys, stimu
lates the How of grastle Juices to aid digestion, and removes bile
from thc general circulation. Traxo should be taken three or four
times u duy following a dose of Fruitola to strengthen and restoro
Clio weakened, run-down system.
For the convenience cf tho public, arrangements have been made
to tupply Fruitola end Trnxo through leading drug stores. In An

Trading >
Shnaghat, Sept. l?.-(Associated
Press Correspondence.)-Big busi
ness haa found many ways of cvad
tng the British orderagalnst trading
with tho Austrians and Germans. Tho
desire to preservo business seem ; to
have transcended patriotism in many
pases, or as an 'Englishman- who is
indignant at thc subterfuges invent
ed hy his countrymen remarked to
day, "Tho dollar ecems to bo abovo
o'terythlng else after all."
. One instan':': is that of a firm
which does an immense o*?ortCnfc
and importing business throughout
the Orient, one member being a na
turalized Englishman of German blrUa
nnd the other a German citizen. Tho>
announced a dissolution of thclr'pnrt
nershlp and hung out separato signs
in front of their varions ornees. Tie
Englishman continues tho firm's trade
with tho English and avails himself
of. TlrltisU bottoms, while tho Gorman
looks after tho Gorman end and
uses E':ip3 under tho American and
other neutral flags.
Wholesale transfers of Invoices and
gocds to neutrals have taken placo
and many Americans are charged by
the English with falsely swearing that
Gorman and Austrian goods aro their
propertl. Because of thc vnrlous
mali services lrt treaty ports rpere
sentativc3 of thc countries at war are
able to binder the trade of enemies by
seizing Invoices, bills of lading and
other suspicious papers which find
their way into the post.
. An American steamship line which
recently transferred ships te the Brit
ish flag encountered an unoxpecied
situation In Its first sailing under thc
"Union Jack from Gi is port. Thc
American agent for thc company ap
plied to the. British consul general
for clearance papers.
"You have 2,70 tonB of English and
neutral cargo and 2,300 tons of Ger

marked. . "You'll never leave this port
