Ellen J. asks: “Tell me, please,, how I
can increase my weight and improve
my color. I seem to be aenemic, weak
and tired all the time.”
Answer: Begin taking three-srain
hypo-nuclane tablets with your meals
and soon you will feel your strength
returning and gradually your weight
and color will improve. This is a most
effective remedy if persistently used.

WINTER DOUBLES WORK.
In summer the work of eliminating
poisons and acids from the blood is
helped by perspiration. Ih cold weather,
with little outdoor work or exercise to
cause sweating, the kidneys have to do
double work. Foley Kidney Pills help
overworked, weak and diseased kidneys
to filter and cast out of the blood the
waste matter that causes pains in sides
or back, rheumatism, lumbago, stiff-
ness of joints, sore muscles and other
ills resulting from improper elimina-
tion. Sold everywhere.
M. R. writes: “I have suffered with
dyspepsia, or nervous indigestion more
or Tess for 8 years, and I want you to
prescribe treatment for me, my symp
toms are the usual ones, such as pain
and distress after eating, sour stomach,
headache, heart-burn, and pain in.re
gions of heart, or between shouldens,
constipation, or sometimes diarrhea,
coated tongue, bad breath and a scoie
more. Am miserable, in a word.
Answer: Your case is chronic, but by
careful diet and the regular use of an
aid and tonic you should soon recover
a normal state. Obtain a packet o
“double-four stomach and bowel medi-
cine” of a druggist. With it are direc-
tions. This is the newest and best treat-
ment I know of.

German Supreme Court Declines to Ab-
rogate French Patent.
By Associated Press.
Berlin, Feb. 9.—(By wireless to Say-
ville).-—The supreme court of the Ger-
man empire in deciding a patent law
suit against a Frenchman residing in
Paris, stated that Germany was at war
with states and their armed forces, not
with private citizens; therefore the
private rights of foreigners could be
abrogated only by a special law. The
German law, the court stated, did not
recognize the doctrine that war must
be conducted by damaging private
property.

Answer: I am quite sure that anti-
septic Vilane Powder is the most prompt

possibly use. Full directions accom-
pany either a two or eight ounce pack-
age. Do not neglect catarrhal trouble.

By Associated Press.
New York, Feb. 9.—The greatest ac-
tivity in ship building in many years
in this country is now under way, ac-
cording to "statements today by ship-
ping men. Every firm on the Atlantic
seaboard has more orders than it can
fill for new vessels and the same ac-
tivity is said to prevail on the Pacific
coast.
Among the new vessels recently con-
tracted for is one of 15,000 tons regis-
ter for the Luckenbach Steamship com-
pany, to be named the Edgar F. Luck-
enbach.
A cargo carrier for the Munson line
is also under construction. No fewer
than ten other vessels, all cargo car-
riers, are being constructed and inquir-
ies, it is said, have been received from
firms which have under consideration
the construction of at least ten ves-
sels. Every vessel now on the ways,
it is said, will be placed under Amer-
ican registry.

While the Galveston Automobile club
last night formally disapproved the
proposed Tilloston and Savage bill now
pending in the legislature, that action
was taken under protest. It was de-
cided preferable to follow the lead of
the Dallas motorists’ club than to ap-
point a committee from the local or-
ganization to consider and report on
the proposed bill from its known mer-
its.
About 25 members were present last
night at the called meeting of the Au-
tomobile club at Hotel Galvez, for the
purpose of discussing pending legisla-
tion of interest to automobile owners.
Other matters of interest to the club,
however, were talked.
After a summary of the Tolloston
and Savage bill was given, section by
section, by the president, Maco Stewart,
and after various provisions were
briefly discussed, M. O. Kopperl moved
that a committee be named to consider
the bill and act upon it. Mr. Kopperl
said, in the first place, that he saw
nothing wherein the bill would be det-
rimental to Galveston motorists and
that, in fact, it probably would be bet-
ter than risking the possibility of
more drastic legislation, probably tax-
ing automobiles according to horse-
power, being passed later. Besides, he
said, merely because the Dallas club
opposed the bill was not sufficient rea-
son for the local club to do the same
thing without due investigation.
Mr. Kopperl’s was a substitute mo-
tion. Capt. J. W. Munn moved that the
Galveston club endorse the stand taken
by the Dallas organization, and the
latter motion polled the most votes.
As The Tribune previously outlined,
the Tilloston and Savage bill provides
for the creation and maintenance of a
state highway commission and for
state licensing and regulation of all
motor vehicles. The license for mo-
torcycles would be $1 and for automo-
Mrs. Belle C. writes: “I am informed
that I have kidney trouble and that it
is fast approaching a serious . stage.
What would you prescribe?”
Answer: If your symptoms are the
usual ones, such as puffs under the
eyes, swelling ankles; scant, copious or
foul-smelling urine, accompanied by
headaches, pains, depression, fever,
chills, etc., I would advise the immedi-
‘ ate use of balmwort tablets, a very fine
remedy for such difficulties, sold in I
sealed tubes with full directions for
Elaborate Round of Events Prepared
for Baron Dewa,
By Associated Press.
Washington, Feb. 9.—In honor of
Admiral Baron Shigeto Dewa, Japan’s
representative to the opening of the
Panama-Pacific Exposition, who was
due here late today, an elaborate
round of entertainment has been
planned by the state department.
The admiral will call on President
Wilson, the secretaries of state, navy,
and war, and Admiral Dewey. Secre-
tary Daniels will give a dinner in his
honor tomorrow night and Secretary
Bryan will entertain him at luncheon.
Visits to Annapolis, the navy yard,

“Poor Nerves” writes: “Is it possi-
ble to find a medicine which by its
tonic or nutritive powers will bring the
glow of health and ambition back to a
man who has everything in the world
but health and happiness? I am dull,
forgetful, despondent, weak, trembling,
short of breath and suffer more or less
with pain in spine and back of head.”
Answer: Your condition indicates the
need of a strong, harmless tonic nutri-
tive to restore nerve equilibrium, which
in turn fortifies and strengthens the
organs of nutrition, thus vitalizing the
blood and promoting new cell and tis-
sue to take care of the waste forces.
Three-grain cadomene tablets, packed
in sealed tubes with full directions, are
recommended in all such cases.
bers besides a state highway engineer,
two-thirds of the license money thus
collected would be used, while the oth-
er one-third would be returned to the
various counties, in proportion to that
county’s number of licensed and regis-
tered automobiles, to be used on road
work. The purpose of the state high-
way commission, of course, would be
to offer advice and consultation on
road building throughout the state, to
maintain a laboratory, to make quar-
terly reports and the like, and it would
be the duty of county commissioners in
all counties to consult the commission
before the proceeds of road bond issues
are expended. There would be no other
regulation or licensing of automobiles
than provided in this bill, and there
would be penalties for violating its
provisions.
BURDEN TOO HEAVY.
The argument was advanced that the
plan contemplated by the Tilloston and
Savage bill would place a too heavy
burden upon the motorists. President
Stewart contended that the convict
labor plan, as included in the state
Democratic platform, was the one way
to get good state highways. This
eventuated in the passage of a resolu-
tion to advise Galveston county’s rep-
resentatives at Austin that the carry-
ing out of this plank of the platform
was desired,
Discussing the contemplated sugges-
tions for a new city ordinance govern-
ing traffic, M. O. Kopperl said that the
present ordinance would not be unsat-
isfactory if enforced and that he be-
lieved more agitation would have only
harmful results. So, on the motion of
Frank Freund, the secretary was in-
structed to write a letter to the city
commissioners requesting that the
“D. E. G.” writes: “My rheumatism is
getting worse all the time. I am get-
ting so stiff that it makes it very hard
for me to get around.”
Answer: Do not worry about your
rheumatism, as that can be very easily
controlled by using the following: Get
at the drug store the ingredients named,
mix thoroughly and take a teaspoonful
at meal time and again at bedtime and
you should soon be entirely relieved of
that disagreeable disease, rheumatism.

lieves but surely drives it from the
system. The following regularly used
will oust any curable cough or cold
promptly: Obtain a 2% oz. bottle of
