Smartly Styled Suits at
$ 35
We waited patiently for these exceptional suits just in.
Our makers, had they been so inclined, could have sold these
suits at advances of $6 to $B, but they are not of that class. No
profiteering with them. They have our interest at heart, just

When Aye say to you that we could not duplicate
suits to retail at less than $lO more we are conservative in
our statement. I hat is the real condition in the clothing world

shoulders, skirt flare, etc. Also many new models of style dig

models of extreme elegance.

Health Insurance
Splits Conference
Health insurance, the big question
for the conference of industrial sur
geons to consider at the ninth an
nual gathering yesterday, caused a
decided difference of opinion among
doctors and lawyers at the meeting
to come to the surface and created
much comment on Capitol Hill to
day in view of the approaching ap
pointment of a commission by the
Governor to continue study of the
subject and recommend to the next
Legislature.
Several speakers connected with
insurance companies criticised the
plan, one saying that it would
"pauperize physicians," but Dr.
John B. Andrews, of the American
Association for Labor Legislation,
said that it was important. Quoting
the preliminary Pennsylvania report,
he said it caused a loss of $40,000,-
000 in this State annually and called
attention to occupational diseases.
Dr. George E. Tucker, an insurance
expert, said that the idea had con
siderable political backing and Dr.
Francis D. Patterson, director of the
State division of industrial hygiene,
(Commenting from the chair, said:
"As near as I can account for the
hysterial demand for compulsory
health insurance, it comes from a
small group of alleged uplifters who
can best be described as long-haired
men and short-haired women." John
A. Lapp, of Chicago, did not agree
with Dr. Patterson and said that it
would guarantee a yearly income of
aboi:; $5,000 to doctors.
Dr. W. T. Bishop, of this city,
did not agree that the plan would
"pauperize doctors," and said he did
not think it could be settled entirely
from the viewpoint of tho doctors.
"If health insurance is good for the
public, it will be good for the doe
tors," he remarked.
The conference did not take any
formal action, ' but the discussion
caused a lot of talk.

be given under the act of 1919,
which includes such diseases in the
list that may be officially guarded
against as communicable. The
words "reasonably suspected," says
Mr. Myers, are to be taken to mean
that "reasonably certain knowledge

by the officer or agent of the depart
ment that such person is so infect
ed." It is stated that tlie quaran
tining or detaining of such persons
must be exercised by the department

they change materially at all, they
will go upward, he concludes.
The Geologist calls attention to the
changes in the price of bituminous
coal in five years and remarks that
if people had attempted to store
extensively it would have caused
prices to keep on going up because
of demand.

Woman Doctor Says It Is
Unfair For Sex to Claim
Equality and Take Favors
New York, Sept. 23. Women
were accused of not "playing fair"
by trying to hold on to privileges
granted because of weakness and
dependence while at the same time
asserting the doctrine of equality
with men in an address delivered be
fore the International Conference of
Women Physicians by Dr. Clelia
Mosher, of Leland Stanford Uni
versity. Dr. Mosher declared the
old idea that being a woman was
a handicap must be given up.
"The new freedom," said Dr.
Mosher, "has entailed sometimes no
new idea of a wider, more perfect
tilling of woman's own great place
in the world, but has led only to an
imitation of the man; an attempt to
make herself into what has been
characterized as an 'amateur male.'
"We must go back to the old
Greek ideal of physical perfection.
If we can put aside the old idea that
being a woman is a handicap and
bring up all girl children of to-day
mentally and physically free, clothe
them so that they may be hampered
neither in time or work, there is no
limitation on what we may expect
from the coming generation."
Dr. Mosher added that women
must not make the mistake of losing
sight of their primary function of
motherhood. "No woman reaches
her fullest development," she said,
"who is not a wife and mother."
Hearse Drivers Strike
With Grave Diggers
Sept. 23.—A strike of grave
diggers in Dublin maintained for
some weeks at Glasnevin cemeterv.
has caused much inconvenience and
some risk to the public health. It was
mitigated however, by the decision of
the cemeteries committee to permit
interments by people having plots in
till cemetery provided they opened
and closed the graves themselves
without calling on the committee for
assistance.
The gravediggers have now ap
pealed to the hearse drivers, who
have declared a sympathetic strike
and refused to convey bodies for
burial.

"The Live Store" "Always Reliable"
"Be Sure of Your Store'"
You Can Buy Good Clothes
at $35, $4O and $45
#
If you come to Doutrichs you will see what a saving
this is for you on the kind of clothes you like to buy. We provided them
in the early season in large quantities and in a big variety of colors, fabrics and
models.
We can scarcely tell you just how good
these clothes are. They're so much better than most
people are expecting this season for the price that everybody is
agreeably surprised when they see them—lt's very hard for the av
erage clothing merchant to keep pace with changing conditions and
few of them are prepared to serve their customers with as generous
a collection as you will find at this "Live Store."
v
This year clothes buyers will realize more than
ever before that it pays to buy from an "always reliable" store that
handles known quality, standardized merchandise, fully guaranteed to give com
plete and lasting satisfaction to their customers —That's what is bringing new cus
tomers to Doutrichs in such noticeable numbers. When you come Here, you get
dependable clothes at bed rock prices—our large output is an advantage that very,
very few stores in the United States can boast of.
We want you to see these good values at
thirty-five, forty and forty-five dollars. You'll say more
about them than we have said when you see how human skill and
careful figuring on a minimum cost has brought such good fortune
to men and young men in variety, quality and price.
