Blood is Purified
Quickly in Summer
Here 10 q Remedy that has Wonderful
Action and Promotes Health.

Mingling with your food, arousing
stomach action, absorbed Immediately
into your blood, the famous remedy
known as S. S. S. has a wonderful ac-
tion. Its main purpose is to stimulate
cellular activity or that peculiar proc
ess which instantly changes the worm
out cells for the new red blood cor
puscles.
The medicinal value of the compo-
nents of S. S. S. is relatively Just as
vital to healthy blood as the nutrimelt
obtained from grain, meat, fats, sugars
or any other part of our daily food is
to the natural reconstructive require
ments of the tissues. And there is one
component Of s. S. S. which serves the
active purpose of stimulating the cell
lular tissue to healthy and judicious
selection of its own essential nutri-
ment Thus, in cases of skin disease
such as eczema, acne, herpes, tetter or
psoriasis, arst purify your blood with
s. S. s. so it will enable the tissues to
rebuild their cellular strength and re-
gain their normal health.
You can get S. S. S. at any drug
store, but take no other so-called
blood purifier.
S. S. S. is purely a botanical product,
and you will make a great mistake to
have some enthusiast palm of a min
eral preparation that may-do you ir-
reparable harm.
S. S. S. is prepared by The Swift Spe-
cifc Co., 191 Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ga,
and If you have any obstinate skin
trouble. write to their Medical Depart
ment for free advice. It will be worth
your while to do SO.

HETCH HETCHY VALLEY
BILL PASSES THE HOUSE
Tract of Land Adjoining Yosemite
Park to Become a Lake for San
Francisco Water Supply.

The House yesterday. by a vote of is
to 43. passed the Hetch Hetchy water
project BILL providing for the grant of
an extensive lract of land in the Hetch
Hetchy Valley, adjacent to and part OF
the Yosemite Valley Park.
The bill was opposed by a group Of
legislators, who insisted that the creation
OF a S5,OOO-acre lake where now is the
beautiful cathedral-like Hetch Hetchy
Valley destroys a place of natural beauty
second only to the Yellowstone Park
itself.
The Hetch Hetchy Valley is more than
4,OoO feet above the level of the sea. II
is situated about 40 miles southeast of
the city of San Francisco. Primarily,
the creation of the Hetch Hetchy Lake
is the supply of pure water for drinking
and other purposes to the city of San
Francisco. Incidentally, the superb wa
ter supply is expected to furnish numer-
Gus power plants between its source and
its point of final consumption.
One Of the stanchest opponents Of the
Hetch Hetchy project for many years has
been John Muir: the naturalist and
friend of Theodore Roosevelt.

INQUIRY INTO MATTER
OF STEEL RAILS FAVORED

In a report made public yesterday, the
Interstate Commerce Commission recon-
mends a complete and searching investi-
CATION into the whole question Of steel
rails.
The COMMISSIONS experts have located
a new defect in rails, known as trans
verse assures" Commenting on this, H.
W. Belnap, chief inspector of safety ap-
pliances of the commission, says that
"the insidious character of these assures
and their menace to safe travel by rail
fully justify the conclusion reached in
previous reports upon steel rails, that
there is an absolute necessity of making
a complete investigation of track and
rail conditions for the purpose Of deter
mining the effect thereon of the recent
types of locomotives and cars with their
greatly increased wheel loads"
The report says this condition is ex-
tremely grave" and quotes James Z.
Howard, engineer-physicist of the Bureau
Of Standards, who made the examination
for the commission:
NO method has been found capable of
locating incipient interior fissures, and
which. 1t should be remarked. do not
present oxidized surfaces. But so grave
a matter as this should not be left in
its present state Of uncertainty. and data

Representative Humphrey of Washing
