for it all! Do not

health, free motion

S. S. S. is waiting

tremendous change.
Everything depends
on blood-strength.
Blood which is minus
sufficient red-cells
leads to a long list of
troubles. Rheumatism
is one of them.’’ S. S. S. is the great

Colds are merely congestion. Mus

camphor, menthol and other simple
ingredients, is a counter-irritant which
stimulates circulation and helps break
up the. cold.
As effective as the messy old mustard

^ Just rub it on with your finger-tips.
You will feel a warm tingle as it enters.-

brings welcome relief.

WENTY-FOl'R organizations have
held this week In Chicago, the “All
Out o’ Doors Anniial Nature Exhibit.”
Its purpose is to foster outdoor reer#
ation, and to interest the public in na
ture study and in the conservation of
plant and animal life. “Good Man
ners Out of Doors” was the subject of
general discussion at tbe .annual
luncheon.
This exhibit is important. Many
varieties of'wild flowers are doomed to
extinction unless tbe American people
can be.educated to mend their ways.
Outdoor recreation Is being promoted
by many thousands of good Americans
who see in it tbe best antidote for the
’manifold ills of a civilization too stren

And our out-of-doors manners are
unbelievably and increasingly bud.

Notwithstanding tbe senate’s first
rejection of Warren, tbe President sent
back bis nam«f Thursday. Saturday,
with debate going, a statement
was given out from the White House
which in effect was tills notice to the
senate, “Confirm Warren or I will
offer him a recess appointment the
moment you adjourn.’’ Conceive, if
you can, tbe outraged dignity of tbe
opposition senators and their fiery de
termination to protect the, senate’s
constitutional right to “advise and con
firm.” Anyway, the senate, after an
exciting debate Monday, again rejected
Warren, this time by a majority of
seven votes. Tuesday letters between
the President and Warren were made
public. The President reiteraRert Ids
regard and his promise of a recess
appointment. Warren expressed his
appreciation and declined a recess ap

Ernest interrupted Glass of Virginia, t
ho went charging across, demanding ,
that tbe Kentucky senator “be

Democratic leader, stepped into tje*

seat, and order was finally restored. !
