Sctys: Inflamed Nostrils Invite Influenza People -Vhc ay that catarfh is a disease ik*; to be taken serious ly are harshly rebuked by a Ken tucky druggist who has for years been much interested in the growth of this loathsome, yet al together too common disease. He claims that the sore, tender, inflamed membrane of the nos trils and throat is a prolific breeding ground for germs—not only the germs of Influenza, but many other lands as well If people would only stop ex perimenting for two weeks and try a simple remedy made of Are'ne mixed with enough boiled water to make a full pint, half of the catarrh Bo Citizens That each individual employe be- i comes an American citizen is the j aim of the plan inaugurated by the i Pennsy, and all employes of foreign i birth will be urged to take some j training in the English language ! and American history. According to the letter from the general superintendent the Pennsy j employs 28,5'"5 men of foreign birth, surveys recently completed showing I who don't know about this simple recipe to be constantly sniffing and snuffling, blowing and hawk ing, when all these obnoxioa. symptoms as well as the foul dis charge can be made to disappear in a few days. Ask for three-quarters of an ounce of Mentholized Arcine— that'3 all you need and after yor have mixed it with enough boiled water to make a pint* gargle the throat twice daily and snuff or spray some up the nostrils, as di rected. The tender nostrils will soon lose their soreness, heal up, and be clean ar.d healthy.

Women Employes Decrease in Number on Railroads The women's service section of the ! division of labor of the United States railroad administration was created by the director general In Septem ber, 1918. Miss Pauline Goldman ! was appointed manager. The num | ber of women employes had increas •ed from 61,162 on January 1, to j 101.787 on October 1, 1918. Since i it first began its work, the women's I service section has been constantly advising with officials and suggest !ing methods of meeting the needs of the women employes more fully. As was to be expected, the return lof the men from military service i who had had their positions kept ! for them, and the general increase ;in the labor force early this year, : resulted in a considerable decrease, iOn July 1. 1919, the number had j fallen to 82,294. The decrease was less in the clerical positions. The present status of women in | the service was the subject of much interest in the recent conference in Chicago held by the staff of the wom en's service section and the super visors of women employes. These meetings were attended by 15 repre sentatives of different railroads from all parts of the country. The broad er aspects of woman's place in the railroad world were discussed and attention was called to the need, as revealed by the U. S. R. A. statistics, of having women employes develop high standards of efficiency if they are to be retained in their positions. Pennsylvania Railroad Girls Club basketball team will leave to-morrow for Burnham where they play the second game of the season. Profane language or anything re pugnant to the clause in the rule book calling for "the faithful, intelli gent and courteous" discharge of duty may afford good cause for dis missal from the railroad service. This is the salient feature of a cir cular recently promulgated on the Pennsylvania railroad.

Who Won the Coal Strike? 1 erms received with "unqualified approval" by the coal operators, accepted with the com ment the fight is won" by the strike-leaders, regarded with gratification by the Government, and hailed by many responsible papers as a "great victory for the public," would seem to be all that could reasonably be expected as a solution of the coal crisis. But through the general jubilation there sounds a note of doubt and warning from no less an authority than Dr. Harry A. Garfield, Lnited States Intel Administrator, who fears that in the near future this settlement will mean further inroads upon the pocketbooks of the coal-consuming public. 1 he leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for this week —December 20th—has been prepared so as to give the public an all-sided knowledge of just what the strike settlement con templates. It quotes facts, opinions, and predictions from all sources, and the article is illus trated with half-tone illustrations and cartoons.
