IT CAN'T BE BEAT. The worst case of constipation in Decatur was positively cured by using 49 Anti-Constipation Tablets. 49 Tablets are entirely different from a cathartic as they stimulate the stomach and bowel muscles and enable them to perform their natural work, and nature does the rest.

jIS FALLING OFF r Marked Change Has Been Noted in the Immigration to This Country, RETURN INCREASES i Number for This Yer is Twothirds Less Than it Was j a Year Ago. Little attention has been given to the fact that, in the course of the year which is just closing, a marked change in the movement of immigration to this country occurred. It is only comparable in the recorded history of American immigration to the similar change which took place in the years 1907-8. There has been a great decrease in immigration con- ! pled with an equally large increase in the number returning to Europe. Between January 1 and September 30. 1911, only 450,670 persons landed i on our shores from the third-class cabins of the trans-Atlantic liners. j While some ardent restrictions might I assert that this total was large ' enough yet it was less than twothirds the number who came to us in 1 the same class in the course of the \ 1 corresponding period of last year. The exact falling off was 278,424, or 38.18 per cent. Perhaps a knowledge of the fact that the number of those , who sailed eastward in the steerage ' in the course of the nine months which closed on September 30th, was ! 300,040, or 60.55 per cent of the total ■ of those who entered and an increase ; 1 over the number who went to Europe ; 1 last year of 35.47 per cent will cause ■ our restrictionist friend to go to the ' • length of throwing up his hat in his 1 enthusiasm. The remarkable charac ’ I ter of this change in ebb and flow is I recognized when it is stated that the ebb in normal times has been found to average about 30 per cent of the i flow. This notable alteration in the currents of the “great human tide” is : undoubtedly to be interpreted as an indication of a considerable reduction in the industrial activity of the country which, owing to a more centralized control and a more conservative attitude of capital, has not exhibited itself in a violent form, and, therefore, until recently has been little observ- , ed. Those who have comprised the I bulk of the eastward flow, it is ref I ported, have been “inside" men, that I is industrial workers. Early in SepII tember it was noted that “outside,” or I outdoor laborers were joining the f stream in larger proportion than is | customary at that season. The coni elusion is further emphasized by the marked reduction in the demand for ? labor in New York state shown re- ! cently in the returns made to the I Bureau of Labor statistics at Alban; by rhe trade unions of the state These indicated that during the first half of the year the percentage <L idleness among their members was higher than at an}- time within recent years, with the exception of 1908. when the country was in the grip of a financial depression. The chief increases in unemployment were report- | ed from the metal, building and transI portation trades.
