GROWING INU.S. Improvements in General Business Conditions Revealed :ki Federal Report. WASHINGTON, April 4. Improvement in general business conditions and the continuance of an undertone of confidence ir. the essential strength and soundness of the country's economic position was reported here in the Federal Reserve board's review of the business situation toward the end of March. In all federal reserve districts, the price situation was said to be still the ontrolling factor In business conditlons and outlook. While the actual situation had not changed very fundamentally, symptoms were reported pointing to an improvement in future prospects and to a more complete readjustment of business to normal conditions. A continuous, though moderate, decline of prices was noted. Equally important as the decline in

prices, it was said, has been the "fact that the public at large has apparently given up expectations of immediate and decisive declines." Some Business Normal Great diversity of conditions was found to exist In the manufacturing field, with unsettlement particularly in cotton manufacturing and Iron and .steel. "Manufacture of boots and shoes reported from various districts," the review said, ''that their business is almost normal and in some cases up to capacity. In groceries, retailers are buying slowly, while large stocks on hand have caused sharp declines in price. In the middle west activity. In many lines is all that could be asked. "Woolen mill production has reached it; lowest point and is beginning to improve. "The demand for jewelry, automobiles and other luxuries appears to be bri.sk in many districts. Purchases of gold at the assay office in New York, for the purpose of manufacturing jewelry were greater in January and February than during any preced-

Opening for Labor "In connection with the manufacturing situation there is to be noted a distinct improvement in the labor and employment outlook. Returning soldiers are being generally re-employed, although there is difficulty in placing those who desire higher wages and better appointment than they had before entering the army. "In the agricultural districts a large demand for labor is now opening, due to the prospects of excellent crops. On the Pacific coast the problem cf unemployment 13 still serious, but in some sections it is believed that by May 1 the entire labor surplus will have been absorbed.

FUTURE OF RUSSIA GREAT WORLD TOPIC WASHINGTON, April 4. Probably the most widely discussed topic all over the world today is the future of Russia. Will order and stable government emerge from the present chaotic reign of terror and enable this vast nation to take its rightful place among the peoples of the earth? Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, in a pamphlet just published by the Smithsonian institution, concludes from a thorough study of the elements which make up the enormous population of Russia that in the end the Slavs or real Russians must prevail and maintain the unity of the nation. The subject of the races of Russia, says Dr. Hrdlicka. seems at first glance very baffling, yet if considered from' the viewpoint of anthropology, the problem is simplified and there are seen to be large areas of racial

uniformity. The earliest known peo

pling of Russia took place during the latter paleolithic epoch and the following neolithic times, but a much more important influx occurred during the latest neolithic and bronze and

iron periods, proceeding from the adjacent regions In Europe and also over Caucasus and from the great steppes of Asia. The author traces the' divisions and locations of the various peoples who make up the Russian population, from the earliest tribes, the Cimmerians and Tauri, down to the present time. He notes the successive invasions of various parts' of Russia by the Goths, the Huns, the Khazars, and finally the last and overwhelming Tartar or Mongol invasion which covered all present Ukrania and beyond. The southern Russians were slaughtered in large numbers or forced to flee and, to this day, a large part of the population of Crimea is more or less Tartar. In the meantime, however, the real Russians had continued to spread irresistibly over European Russia and Siberia. The modern Russian population represents a physically strong and very prolific stock, freer as yet from degenerative conditions than perhaps any other of the large European groups. The total population of Russia counted at the beginning of the war was 178.000,000. Dr. Hrdlicka then considers the "non-Russian" races of European Russia, including the Poles, Lithunians, the Tchouds and Finns, and the FinnoUgrian tribes of the Interior, the Laps and the Samoyeds, the Tartars, the tribes of the Caucasus and finally the immigrant Jews and Germans, of which last there were practically 2,000,000 at the beginning of the war.

It is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Druggists sell it in liquid or tablets. Send 10 cents to the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., for trial package. Then, for the liver and bowels nothing is so good as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

KNEW

There Was Nothing So Good for Congestion and Colds as Mustard

Dut the old-fashioned mustard-plaster JusUSt,

burned and blistered while it acted. Get the relief and help that mustard plasters gave, without the plaster and without the blister Musterole does it. It is a clean, white "ointment, made with oil of mustard. It ia tcientifically prepared, so that it works wonders, end yet does not blister the tenderest skin. Just massage Musterole in with the fin

ger-tips gently. See how quickly it brings

relief how jpeedily the pain disappears.

Use Musterole for sore throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neuralgia, headache, congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains and aches of the back or joints, sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chilblains, frosted feet, colds of the chest (it often prevents pneumonia). 30c and 60c jars; hospital size $2.50.

Pontine, Mich. "I bare always found Dr. Pierce's medicine to be all that is recommended of them. I was in nervous, run-down condition, ftbo had stomach trouble very badly. I tried several doctors but they did not help me. A friend told me of the benefit she had received from Dr. Pierce's medicines. I quit the doctors and started taking 'Favorite Prescription' and 'Golden Medical Discovery and these medicines cored me completely. I can highly recommend them from actual experience." Mrt. U. P. Levit. 73 s.

MRS. MARGARET CARSON Mrs. Margaret Carson, 1228 Mulberry St., Terre Haute, says: "My stomach was in such a weak state that it was a serious problem for me to find food to eat that didn't hurt me. I didn't have much of an appetite and even what little I ate caused me distress. "I could almost feel myself going down hill. My nerves seemed as if they were going to pieces. I am mighty glad that I tried Pepgen. In a few days after I began to use it I developed a good appetite. Better still I could eat what I wanted and not be compelled to suffer with indigestion. "I eat meat, potatoes and cabbage

.nd they agree with me. My nerves ire steady and I rest well at night. I hink so much of Pepgen that I am ersonally recommending it to all of ny friends. I surely would not ask hem to try it if I did not have every onfidence in it." Pepgen is a new compound prepar

ed from the oils and juices of a vast umber of different kinds of leaves, ! cots and barks, each reeognized for !ts value in relieving stomach, kidney j xnd nerve troubles. J For rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago, aches. and pains try Pepgen Lini-j

nient. It is made from mustard, sassafras, red pepper, menthol and ammonia. It penetrates but does not blister. If constipated take Pepgen Laxative Tablets. They are different from anyhing you have ever tried eaten like andy. They thoroughly cleanse the Mver. Pepgen Tonic. Liniment and Laxa-;-. es may be obtained at Thistlethnite's drug stores, Richmond or from ny other first class drug store anyvhere. Adv.

The big two-cylinder motor, with big bore and long stroke, furnishes a guaranteed 1 H. P. at the draw bar and 25 H. P. at the belt, with ample reserve power. The weight of the tractor is sufficient to secure good traction for drive wheels.

for five years. Its heat treated steel cut gears, its force and sight feed oiling system, its 11 sets of Hyatt roller bearings at important bearing points, its Schebler carburetor, its Dixie magneto, its efficient cooling system, its patented manifold and its powerful, perfectly balanced motor result in a tractor that has given and will give many years of dependable and economical service.
