BRITISH M. P. FINED
FOR FOOD HOARDING
LONDON, Feb. B.—William John Mc-
Geeagh Mac Caw, member of the house
of commons for West Down, was fined
$2,000 and $175 costs today for food
hoarding.
Mr. McCaw was tried in the Oxted,
Surrey, police court. According to the
attorney for the food committee of
the Godstone division of Surrey, this
member of parliament had in his lar
der at Rooksnest:
24 pounds of tapioca.
154 pounds of rice.
53 pounds of semolina.
100 pounds of biscuits.
53 pounds of tea,
34 pounds of golden syrup.
21 pounds of hone£.
The case of Mr Mac Caw was one
of several hundred pending, while
many more have already been disposed
of. Last week Admiral Sir Richard
Poore was fined $450 for having in
"his possession a quarter of a ton ot
food, while others who were fined in
cluded a railway worker, a wealthy
widow and the proprietors of several
hotels, the last being charged with ex
ceeding the official ration.
Baron Rhondda, the food controller,
is pressing the magistrates to inflict
imprisonment upon the guilty in cases
of systematic hoarding. .

Virtue rlzes Awarded.
Paris, Feb. B.—-One of the func
tions of the French Academy—more
accurately the Academy of Language
and Literature —is its right to award
a large number of money prizes for
literary merit and for “virtue.” Since
11’14 all the literary prizes have been
reserved to men serving with the col
ors. The “virtue" prizes are awarded
to humble people “who have lived
pare and useful lives,” sacrificing the
pursuit of all selfish aims to the ser
vice of their families or their coun
try.

Relief from Eczema
-
Don’t worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, or
extra large bottle at SI.OO.
Zemo generally removes pimples, black
heads, blotches, eczema, and ringworm
and makes the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is a clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
nothing. It is easily applied and costs a
mere trifle for each application. It Is
always dependable.

SAYS TOBKEY NO
LONGER A FACTOR
Berne, Switzerland, Feb. 9. —Ke-
mal Midhat Bey, grandson of the for
mer Turkish Grand Vizier, Midhat Pa
sha, is in Switzerland organizing a
society known as the “Turkish League
of Peace and Liberty,” the objects of
which are stated as
“To persuade the Turkish govern
ment to make a separate peace; to
unite and reconcile the various na
tionalities which make up the Ottoman
Empire, and to modernize Turkey.”
in a statement to the press, Kermal
says: “Turkey has reached the end
of its tether. The capture of Jerusa
lem has probably proved the finishing
blow. My latest reports fro mConstan
tinople emphasize the tremendous im
pression made by the iapture of Je
rusalem. But the ‘stop the war' move
ment in Constantinople derives its prln
ci pal impetus from the economic mis
eries of the people rather than from
any dismay at the dwindling nf Turk
ith power and prestige. The terrible
conditions of the poorer classes can
not easily be exaggerated.
“The disorganization of the army is
another factor. The number of Turk
ish deserters in Asia Minor is now ov
er 200,000. The Turk deserts “ot be
cause he is afraid, but because his
eyes have been opened to the real or
igin of the war and the futility of
continuing it. The aim of our organi
zation is not merely to get Turkey
away from alliance with the Germans,
but to get Turkey into the war on the
side of the Entente.”

Marlborough has given a $25,000 col

I large diamond, to a “Children’s Jew

LOOK AT YOUR TONGUE!
* 10 IT BROAD, WHITE, FLABBY?
-YOOR BLOOD NEEDS ZIRON!
a,
iWhen Your Tongue Is White and Flabby, It Is a Sign
That You Are Anemic and That Your Blood
Needs Ziron Iron Tonic, For the Benefit
of Your Weakened System.
Look at your tongue in the mirror! •
It ought to be pointed, pink, clean and firm.
If it is broad, white, coated, flabby, it is probably a sign that you are
anemic, that your blood lacks red corpuscles, that you are not in good health,
that your system needs iron to bring it up to proper condition. q
When your blood needs Iren, take Ziron, the new Iron Tonic, which con
tains also the hypophosphites of lime and soda and other valuable tonic ingre
dients prescribed by the best physicians for this form of trouble.
® When you feel tired and miserable, lack ambition, suffer from indigestion,
rheumatic pains, gastric catarrh, depression of spirits and a general feeling
of being “under the weather”, why not try Ziron to help you back to health?
Ziron, the new compound of Iron, contains no habit-forming drugs. It is
a safe, reliable tonic remedy—good for men, women and childrep.
Mr. R. L. Poston, of Lillie, La., writes:^ “Some weeks ago I was suffering
with something like dumb chills. I just ached all over, my skin would feel
clammy. I ached worse from my knees down. I didn’t rest well nights, and
my appetite wasn’t good. I was afraid I would get down in bed and so much
to do in the Spring of the year. I began to look around for something
to help me and decided to try Ziron...l had not taken one third of a hottie
until I felt much tetter. I grew stronger, began to get hungry and did not
have any more of the chills. I think Ziron is a splon Id tonic.”
® SPECIAL OFFER: P.uV a bottle of ZIRON, today, at your druggist’s
and give it a fair trial, according to directions on the bottle. If, after using
up one bottle, you find it has not benefited you, take the empty bottle back
to the druggist and he will refund what you paid him for it. We repay him,
so there is no reason why he should not repay you. This offer only applies
10 the first trial bottle. , * (ZA3)
