lief from the symptoms, all declare the
general improvement in health. 1t is
pure blood now that is travelling every
where through the body and the bene-
fit goes on until health Is restored.
Mrs. F. J. King, of No. 124 Poplar

A Witty Reply.

Owen Johnson says that the best ex-
ample of repartee he has ever heard,
came from New Haven book agenty
who still, as in Johnson's day at Yale,
is called John Drew by the students, be-
cause of his society manner.
johnson was freshman then, living
in Pierson hall. The book dealer
knocked. entered. looked suavely about
and remarked "Ah, l see some new
faces this year"
A would he wit of Johnsons class
responded, Why, yes, we change them
every year"
Instantly the book agent replies, st'll
more susvely. "And / trust that you
will get better face next year, yonpg
sir."-The Argonaut.

tions in the department and the rela-
tions existing between the various divi-
sion and bureau heads and the secre-
tary. DR.. Andrew invites an investi
CATION by the president.
None of the officials named who were
in the city yesterday would discuss the
letters of DIR. Andrew. but some OF
them appeared willing for their failure
to deny Andrews statements TO be in

Following the publication of the let
tiers, the White House issued less than
three lines of typewriting as follows;
