The Best Health
a Glean Colon
THERE ARE TWO WAYS of insuring 'yourself against
disease. One is to pay hie premiums to. an insurance com
pany which will pay you so much a week when you eet sick.
And if you get sick, most of this money will have to e.o to
the doctor who tries to make you well again.
fl'HE BEST WAY is to keep the disease-resisting forces of
the '.body so well organized and equipped as to guarantee
health. Then you can enjoy life right.along, and make it pay
you premiums instead of paying premiums on a policy.
This can Vie done only by keeping the colon clean and free from cloe
(ring. For the most eminent medical authorities tell us that about 90jfa
of the sicknis we have is directly' or indirectly due to constipation
Nujol is the best health insurance "policy" in existence, because it
keepi'tne colon clear and clean without deranging or weakening any of
the olheroroans. It is the only foe of constipation which has no tin-
pleasant or dangerous "come-back".
Nujol is not a drug. Every particle of it that goes into the body comes
out of the body. But on its journey it softens any mass that may be
impacted in the colon and lubricates the way so as to make it easy for
nature to move tne obstruction ann
Nujol never interferes with digestion
It i not absorbed bv those millions of
which suck in nourishment from the
ach. Its sole Job is to keep things moving in an orderly, comfortable way.
And it dQes this without any pain does it equally well for babies,
children, adults and aged folk.

"FLU" EPIDEMIC FEAR
.FAST WANES IN CITY
'Absence of Grip Cases Causes
Doctors to Doubt Out
break This Year
Mothers who have TVorrles over the
possibility of a new epidemic of influ
enza this fall 'and winter, nnd others
who have felt the same uneasiness, were
relieved today when It was reported that
physicians here are generally disposed to
think that there Is no serious danger.
, Just n year ago Thlladelphla was In
the grip of nn epidemic, but at present
It is almost free from nnytlilng resem
bling influenza.
During September alone last year
2000 cases were reported, and there
were probably as many more which
never were recorded.
' Last month seventeen cases diag
nosed as influenza were reported at
the office Vf Dr. A. A. Cairns, chief
medical Inspector of the bureau. Im
mediate investigation by medicnl in
spectors usually found the patient had
recovered iu'two or three days and was
back at .work.
Doctor Cairns said there was nothing
to designate the cases as the epidemic
form of influenza. He doubts if there
It any epidemic influenza in the city n't
tliis time, nnd believes most of the
cases thought to have been the genuine
influenza have been merely severe colds.
Precautions should be taken during
wet weather, such as was experienced
this week, that the feet and clothing
be kept dry.
The 1018 cpidemis began In August
nnd reached its height before October,
and physicians who have studied the
disease say that an epidemic, if there
was to be one, would have shown it
self before this time.

LAW SCHOOL "RECOVERING"
Has Creditable Enrollment and Ex
periences Revival of Activities
After passing through tho most do
moralizing period of its history, the
law school of the University of Penn
sylvania is resuming peacetime
"strength with a creditable enrollment
and a revival of activities.
The "rushing" season for the law
clubs has begun in the hope that many
lnw students will ba secured for mem
bership. The war in several cases en
tirely depleted the nembersbip of the
clubs and fraternities, and alumni mem
bers in some cases are now instrumental
in refilling the membership rolls.
The clubs of the law school are the
Sharswood, Hare, Miller, McKean nnd
Wilson, and the fraternities Phi Delta
Phi and Delta Chi. The fraternities
both suffered severely; and had to dis
continue operating during the wnr. The
same was triffc of several of the clubs,
while others had but two or three.mnm

BECK'S WARNING
T
Former; Assistant U. S. Attorney
General's Attack on Unions'
Attitude Discussed
FOUNDRYNIEN HEAR TALK
Warnings voiced by James M. Deck,
former nsslstant United States ilttorncy
general, n the annual banquet of the
American Foundrymon's Association,
were widely discussed today. Foints
In Mr. Reek's nddrcss litst night at the
Rcllevue-Stratford which stirred com
ment were: .
The constitution is threatenedj,by
anarchy stalking in the guise of labor
unions.
The restoration of law nnd order is
the greatest task now confronting
Aintrlen and its Allies,
Trie refusnl to operate railronds and
nes should bo legnlly made sedition
d punishable ns such.
The residents of the United States
nre far too tolerant of violation of the
law.
Former Speech Recalled
It was recalled today that Mr. Reck,
in his constitution day speech here in
Independence Hall, attacked those who
undertnkc to centralize power at Wash
ington nnd change the system of gov
ernment, saying that there was menace
to the republic in such efforts.
Mr. Beck's subject last night was
"The Crisis."
He pointed out that the country is
now going through the snme unsettled
conditions experienced for several years
following the Revolutionary Wnr. ' He
asserted that free Institutions in this
country and Knglnnd nre in greater
peril now than ever.
Hc Mated that In the steel strike
"outside pressure" is being exerted to
"choke Am'erica into submission."
Quoting from the book of Foster, leader
of the strike. Beck said that Foster
advocated destruction of the government
nnd of nil private property.
.Must Crush Specter'
"It is time for all people to crush
this rising specter of lawlessness," be
said. "It is time that we forgot our
troubles 'in other parts of the world,
nnd devote jiirsel-es to the immedi
ate tnsk of restoring reign of law.
I would have, in addition to the laws
on the statute books preventing re
straint of. trade, another law, and that
is, if any combination of men endeavors
to dictate to tho American people or
the government their demands and say,
'You will obey us or starve,' then that
offense should bo equivalent to sedition
and punished accordingly."
Thc convention continued its sessions
this morning.

SLEEPS IN FERRY TERMINAL,
WAKES TO FIND SHOES GONE
Man Lets Out Howl When He Dlscdvcrs Loss Learns Foot
wear Was Sold on Street Nearby for Dollar
There is one man in Camden who
wishes ho wns constituted like Mnc
beth nnd "could sleep no more." For
an innocent little imp in the Camden
ferry this morning cost him one perfect
ly good pair of shoes. With the price
of shoes vying with the altitude record
of Rnlnnd Rolilfs. their loss Is serious.
The shoes were not being carried ;
they were tightly laced about the feet
of the man, nnd ns his name is not
to be mentioned, it may be said that
they arc "some fret."
The man, who works in this city, nr
rived somcwhnr) early for the ferry
and decided thnt he would take a nap in
a waiting room. He had hardly dozed
off when the bumping nf the fcrrybont
into the dock awoke him. He leaped i
to his feet and started to run for the I
dock when he suddenly discovered that
instead of n heavy pair of shoes, his
sock-covered trilbies were patting on the i
wooden floor.
Mr. Man let out n howl. He in- ,
stitictivcly felt in his pockets first. '
then rushed hack to the bench, but the '
shoes wero gone. Tn vnln ln rushed, '
shoeless, about the ferry ; there wns !
none who hud seen the daring theft.

And then came the worst shock of
all. One of the men npprinehcd by
the shoeless one gave him tho laugh.
"A fellow sold a pair of shoes up tho
street a few minutes ago," he said,
j looking dow nnt the bright blue socks
which stnred up nt him. "From the
size of them they must 'a been yours.
He got n dollar for them."
I It wns adding insult to injury. When
I last, seen the man wns hiding In one

"I can't go home," he explained.
