GAS MASKS, USELESS IN PEACE, ENDANGER INDUSTRIAL WORKERS (By 'Associated Press) WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 10. Inv
liiclt faith in an Instrument that Fared the lives of thousands of American soldiers in France is daily endangering the lives of scores of men in industrial life in the United States. Dr. F. G. Cottrell. director ot the Bureau of Mines said today,' in another warning against the use of army gas masks in mine exploslon'and mine fires. , De f-pito repeated warning, from the department, miners and persons 'engaged in mine rescue work persist In using army gas maks, Dr. Cottrell said, al1 hough the devices are of practically r.o use in the average mine disaster. Reviewing a number of cases recently where men attempting mine rescue work with any type gas masks had been overcome and had died, Dr. Cottrell said: Useful Only In War. "These fatalities illustrate the futil ii.y of the belief quite prevalent throughout the country that this army type of gas mask will protect the wearer against any type of gases under all conditions. The fact is that the array gas mask was a very excellent device for the purpose intended, that of protecting our soldiers from 1h dabolical gases used in warfare. The mask gave the men such absolute protection that when they returned from France they were so enthusiastic over its performance they were willing to endorse the gas mask for all purposes of protection against poisonous gases. These men, it would seem, do not realize that out in the open air of the battlefield the percentage of gar. in the air would not be nearly so large as in the confined spaces of a mine or factory fire." The army mask affords absolutely no protection against carbon monoxide pas, which is most prevalent in mine f;res ard factory disasters. Dr. Cottrel' said, adding that the masks will actually be a menace because of tho falee feeling of security they give the tv pa rer. The bureau of mines endorses the ii'p cf thp self-contained oxygen nine rescue breathing anparattjs and is prepared to furnish information regarding its use.

WOMEN READY
(Continued from Taeo One) Schorterneier of the Republican state committee but it was not believed that he would pu?h It. One new phase of the developments today was the talk among the proprimary men that in any compromise that m?y be considered the Allredge hill which is pending in the senate should' be considered along with other Pleasures or proposed measures as a bfsis of compromise. The Alldredge bill which has been in the senate since before the Beardsley bill was killed represents the idea of the pro-primary pople as to the manner in which the present, primary law should be strengthened. : One Compromise Hope. This talk it is supposed had origin because of the introduction in the bou?e of the Willis bill. The talk at the time the Willis bill was presented was that that bill was brought forth in order to make the real anti-primary bill look mild by comparison. If the Alldredge bill is brought into the compromise proposal it is possible that the compromise reached will be for leaving the present rrimary law intact. This solution or the plan to eliminate the presidential primary, which the pro-primary men raid today they would not consider, seem to offer the only hope of a compromise. It was evident last night when a namber of new faces showed up around the Claypool hotel that the friends of th? primary out in the state were aroused. The talk of these men was along a different line from that which has been heard recently. They were saying that an attempt to tamper with the primary law would split the party an-1 that already irreparable harm has been done. Most of them were laying great stress on the attitude of the women. Takes Poll On Car. "I come from Senator Duncan's district," said one of the pro-primary men "and I will say that the attitude Senator Duncan la taking is not in line with the sentiment that is held by 90 percent of the people in his district. Coming to Indianapolis I polled a traction car containing passengers that had boarded the car on its way from Terre Haute. There were 18 women and 21 men in the car. In the poll every woman voted in favor of the primary law and 20 of the 21 men voted the same way. . "Down in my county the primary has stirred the people as no other question has stirred them recently. The girls in the stores are talking about it and you may not believe me but they have a list of the senators who voted against the primary when the Beardsley bill was up in the senate. Any time you think the women are not interested in this question you are mistaken and any time you think they will not remember it when it comes to an election or a primary you are mistaken again. "Many references were being made today by those who are here for dar fense of the primary to a statement mad by Representative Coapstick of Frankfort in which he said he would follow the advice of his wife and vote to retain the primary. On all sides the women were being counted on as the big and important element that would save the law."

Peterson's Ointment. Co., Inc., Buffalo, N. Y. Dear Sirs: I was afflicted with what the doctors said were Varicose Ulcers, and up until about five weeks ago I have , bc-?n treating them for about a year and Ave months. With all the treatments that were prescribed to me by several doctors, I received little benefit, and they kept spreading and giving me much distress and caused me to quit my work. I was induced by a brother brakeman to try Peterson's Ointment, and after I had used two boxes I saw wonderful results. You can tell suffering ones troubled with ugly, painful and horrid ulcers that your Ointment is a cure for them when everything else fails, as I have tried about everything. Thanking you many times over. I am, your happy friend, Charles J. Heyser, Battle Creek, Mich., 42 Glenwood Avenue. January 12, 1916.

ASTHMA IS DANGEROUS Folly to Disregard Its Warning Asthma is not only a disagreeable affliction but a dangerous one. The constant difficult breathing, the choked up air passages, the struggle for air, the loss of rest, combine to force a great strain on the nervous system and heart often too great a strain to staaid. It is the worst of follv to nes-let
such a condition or to continually treat with ordinary narcotic medicines, drugs, inhalers, smokes, or douches which merely gives temporary relief from the choking paroxysms and do not relieve or correct the real cause of the trouhle. Instead get from A. G. Lnken & Co.. or any druggist, a Fmall bottle of Oxidaze (esspntial oil) tablets and take one at (-hort intervals whenever distress is felt and one on coins to bed. Instant relief is usually felt and in addition the effect of consistent treatment is to gradually bring about a greatly improved health condition as the symptoms of Asthma disappear forever. Oxidaze is the successful prescription of a Worcester. Mass., Physician and its treatment of Asthma, even in the very worst forms has probably never been excelled. A. G. Luken & Co.. sell it and patients find it a safe, pleasant and inexpensive treatment to use. Advertisement.
