On The Chautauoua Circuit.

Bryan Day" at Hendersonville ap-
pears to have proved to be all that
had been hoped for It, The people
were there from everywhere, and the
secretary of state conferred on Hen
dersOnville the distinctions of being
the only town in which he ever de-
| liyered two chautauqua lectures in
one day, and of receiving his first
lchautauqua lecture since he took
| Office. Strange as it may seem, some
! people were unpleasantly surprised to
find out that to hear the Peerless
Leader would cost them a dollar for
general admission and so per cent
more for reserved seat. Nothing
lad been said about this in the adj
gertising, to be sure but it had been
fcfear1y announced that this was a
chautauqua event; and anybody who
expects to hear the star of the chau-
tauqua circuit for less than 81 is eth
er unsophisticated or unreasonable.
There was some criticism, too, to a lit
tie politics on the Sabbath; but people
will talk
A great many people, notably the.
creatures of plutocracy, are making
to do about the secretary absenting
himself from his desk, gathering
sheke1s on the chautauua Circuit, gath
ering that rich harvest has been a
habit of Mr.. Bryan's for years: and he
probably accepted the job as adviser
to President Wilson with the distinct
understanding that a measly $3.50 a
week would not be allowed to interfere
with the instruction and edification of
the masses and the ingathering Of the
summer crop of dollars. Besides, ne
was under previous engagement with
the chautauqjua people; it would not
surprise us to learn that he has made
a contract right up to 1915. or even
1880.
Mr. Bryan doesn't mind; for he
knows if he remained in Washington
and busted himself with affairs of
state the things he would do would
not please his critics bit more than
his going away and leaving the Office
to capable hired hands He frankly
explained to his first audience yester-
day that he was chautauquaing as
usual for pecuniary consideration as
at least an Incidental motive; and said
in effect that the salary of a cabinet |
officer is so small, compared with |
what he has been in the habit of earn
ing, that he could not get along on it.
The fact is that Mr. Bryan prizes
very highly the ability to talk to peo-
pie in such a manner that they are
willing and glad to pay him money
for it. Mr. Bryan has business to at
tend to in every part of the United |
States. He has, among other things, !
a continuous program of political pro-
cedure which he feels it necessary to !
urge upon people, face to face. He
likes to find out, first hand. what is .
gonig on.
And so he has become seasoned /
and habitual traveller. He is at home
in any part of the pasture. He is the |
sort of man who can snatch wink Of |
sleep while travelling on almost any |
read in the United States, and wax |
irg inquire with interest whether they |
have passed the water tank or the
haunted house at the crossing; or
more likely, he can tell by glancing |
ont the window whether said land
marks have yet been reached.
He is a great citizen and utterly |

Secretary Bryan's Nicaraguan Policy.


Washington, July 20. Secretary
Bryan's plan for the extension Of the
protecting wing of the United States
over Nicaragua, broached to the for
eign relations committee of the senate
yesterday with the consent and ap-
proVal of President Wilson, has be-
come the absorbing topic of diplomatic
and congressional consideration.
While official utterances have not BEN
given, of the purpose of the admins
tration to outline a general policy to-
ward central America, members of the
senate evince growing conviction
that the principle to be applied to Mic
aragua is one that the Wilson admin
istration would be glad to see extend
ed to the other central American re-
publics.
Members of the foreign relation
committee who were present when
Secretary Bryan unfolded his plan
Saturday, continued to assert they
could not discuss the new development.
The original Nicaraguan treaty has
been the subject Of open discussion
among senators. This compact did
not go further, however, than to guar
antee the United States exclusive ca
nal rights, and naval base site, IN
exchange for payment Of $4,000 600
in gold.

Mingling with your food, arousing
stomach action, absorbed Immediately
into your blood, the famous remedy
known as S. S. S. has a wonderful &C
ton. Its main purpose is to stimulate
cellular activity or that peculiar proc
ess which instantly changes the worn
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 nutriment
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
selection of its own essential nutri-
ment. Thus, in cases of skin disease
such as eczema, acne, herpes, letter or
psoriasis, first purify your blood with
S. S. S. so il will enable the tissues to
rebuild their cellular strength and re-
gain their normal health.
S. S. S. is purely botanical product

dent hope of recapturing the lost
stronghold while the allies are quar-
