Albany, N. Y., June 14. An urgent
plea for fair and just treatment by
Americans of natives of y the central
empires who reside in this country and
are loyal to the land of their adoption
was the dominant note of the flag day
address here today by Secretary Daniels.
"Let us on this day honor the men
who, born under other skies, share
with us love of the flag," Mr. Daniels
urged, "but let us not by unjust sus
picion wrong the true patriots who
came from the central empires, whose
loyalty and devotion to America is as
whole-hearted as is that of those""who
have known no other land. Call the
roll of the .nation's defenders on land
and on sea and you will find some
ames of those born on the Rhiae and
on the Danube who are holding places
of trust and honor. These patriots
have been humiliated by the treach
ery of men of their blood, they have
been shocked at such ingratitude as
well as outraged at the sabotage and
conspiracies of the spies."

Edwards That HI tell you by
asking you a question.
Graham: (J mused) That's fair

Edwards: What was theflrst thing
you ordered in the dining car this

water ! Well, this bottle here has
made me see my last drop of "min

Graham: Good, eh?
Edwards: Life insurance. Fve

know, taking orders from a time
table. Well,. I've got a good sys
tem, but it wrecked me. The
hours, the fifty-seven different
varieties of drinking water, the
small-hotel food, all combined to
make me careless about keeping
clean inside. Then whenever my
bcVls didn't act regularly I
took a pill or some salts, and pret
ty soon I had the habit
Graham: The.habitr2
Edwards: Yes. You knowthe
"gimme-something- far-constipation"
habit; the druggist shoots
you a glass of soda with some salts
or a box of powerful laxatives.
You get action all right, you feel
weak for a day, and next time
you need a stronger dose. That
habit cost me a three -months
layoff.
Graham; As serious as that, eh?

had just taken on an examining
doctor for the sales staff, and
