TACOMA SEES LITTLE SLACK IN BUSINESS (Continued From Pare One.) low type, are everywhere. Few cities of 100.000 Inhabitants give a more plea Ins Impression to a visitor.The flour mills are of great size. In this line Tacoma ranks fifth in America. ; All these mills are on the water front and are equipped wtth the latest improved machinery for the expeditious handling of their products for export. Unemployment today in Tacoma totals 2,600. Mayor C. M. Riddell says every effort is being made to reduce it. If the lumber business broadens as appears likely he does not expect any difficulty. J. S. Menefee of W. P. Fuller & Cos , with branches all over the Pacific coast, says the paint and oil business is very active. The Tacoma plant is being donbled in size. He finds it difficult to get all the sheet glass required and has been compelled to import from Belgium. He looks for very active business. Collections are getting better all the time. George L. Dixon of I)lxon Brothers, clothing, thought heavy taxation was delaying readjustment. What was necessary for complete recovery was more hard work, cheaper transportation and revision of taxation. Without them it would be bard sledding for a year to come. A. B. Howe of the Pioneer Bindery ana Printing Company, who just returned from the East, found conditions here better than on the Atlantic seaboard. There was more optimism. Locally, his business had improved In the last thirty days. In fact, he had done more in the last thirty days than the previous six months. Building of homes, he observed, had been remarkable in Tacoma this year. S. M. Jackson, president of the National Bank of Tacoma, said the flour mills were running night and day, the wheat crop was bigger than the average, fruit crops were bounteous and prices were good, savings deposits showed, a substantial increase. Maj. Everett G. Griggs, president of the Bt. Paul and Tacoma Lumber Company, said if the railroads began buyink there might be a runaway market in lumber, prices having already begun to advance, James R. Pleasant, president of the Henry Mohr Hardware Company, said heavy hardware was slow and light hardware very brisk. Garrett Fisher of Stone Fisher Company’s department store, declared his business was surprising good. This promised to be the banner year in volume and thus far It was within 8% per cent of 1020 in dollars. Only one gentleman among those at the Chamber of Commerce meeting did not see promise of better business. This one said the liquidation had not been complete and we could not expect to see a return to real prosperity in this country until the whole process was completed. To his mind, it would take years to correct the wastes and extravagances and colossal losses of the war period and that immediately following, and It was idle to expect readjustment on a sound basis until this was done. He pointed to the long time it took to absorb the costs of ,the CiFil War and said the counary was in for a continuation of the painful experiences of recent times. Wh her he is right or wrong remain* to be seen. One thing certain is that his views were not shared by the others present. One industry in the Northwest that wa hard hit is canning. The improvement in conditions in the cotton belt has given cheer to many men who are loaded up with stocks of canned fish. The South — at least a portion of it—eats out of a can to a larger degree than any other section of the country. The dumping by the Government of its surplus stock of canned goods after the war together with the decline in cotton demoralized the southern market. The surplus now has been absorbed to a large degree, the South, through the sudden rise in the price of cotton, has attained a large pur chasing power and at the same time there has been Improvement in the price of canned goods, so that the outlook for the fish people, the fruit people, the canuers and the bankers who have overdue loans on canned stuff is better. The salmon industry is huge, amounting in these northwestern States to $60.000,000 a year or more. So is the fruit canning end of the business very large. Vegetable oil bulks big also. Two large concerns in this line operate at Tacoma, one Is the Philippine Vegetable Oil Company, the other the A. M. Gillespie Company. Few ports of the West coast have better warehouse facilities than are found along the waterfront here. Both the railroads and the private concerns have introduced the best of modern systems with plenty of mechanical equipment for the expeditious handling of freight Warehouse and wharfage rates are moderate and ships are handled with dispatch. It would be well for some of the ports of the Atlantic seaboard if

Just What Mastin’s Yeast Vitamon Tablets Are— Here is a simple test you will find well worth trying; Fir*t weigh yourself and measure yourself. Next take Mastin’s VITAMON—two tablets with every meal. Then weigh and measure yourself again each week and continue taking Mastin's VITAMON Tablets regularly until you are satisfied with your gain in weight and energy. By mixing with what you eat Mastin’s VITAMON Tablets supply the needed vitarnines which are lacking in your every-day food. They aid digestion and by acting in a natural way as a general conditioner of the whole syst ,n help to put on firm flesh, clear the complexion, correct constipation and in' ease energy. Vitarnines are wonderful health-giving elements contained i many raw foods. There are three kinds of vitarnines ayl all three are regarded -s absolutely necessary for perfect health, vigor and proper physical development. By a special process of concentration a proper dose of all of the three known vitarnines is contained in an active state in MASTIN’S VITAMON TABLETS together with other such valuable tonic ingredients as Calcium Glycerophosphate, Nux Vomica and Feptonate of Iron.

Yeast is rich in one class of vitarnines—■Water Soluble B. But most scientists say that yeast contains only one of the three vitarnines Science has thus far discovered. There are two other known vitarnines—Fat Soluble A —normally present in raw milk, cod-liver oil and certa in plant s—a n and ■Water Soluble C, contained in certain fruits and vegetables. Mastin’s VITAMON Tablets, con-

taining all three vitarnines, highly concentrated, are put up in convenient form. They are easy and economical to taka —t-hey are in no way distasteful — they will not upset the stomach — and
