RED AND BLUE MAKE BLACK.

But That Result Depends Upon the
Colors Being Perfect.
We are told by the textbooks on
light that red glass Is red because 1t
absorbs all the other rays of the spec

blue glass absorbs all except the blue,

The fact that red glass superimposed
upon blue glass transmits violet light
seems in contradiction of this teaching,

absorb all the blue and Rraan light and

Blood EruptiOns WON'T

Blood a Good Bath

No case of poisoned blood is ever

stimulate cellular activity and over

S. 8. s.
4 few doses of this wonderful blood
purifier will start such pronounced
activities in the cellular tissues of the
body as to soon show decided changes
in the skin.
he skin is but q fine network Of tiny blood
vessels, and the action of s. s. s. Is declared
by eminent authorities to be q pronounced
stimulation Of the activity OF these cells.
Certain 1t is that in q surprisingly short time
even the worst skin eruption shows q most
remarkable change; 1t begins to dry up; the
skin peels o6 In tiny necks, and soon a layer
Of clear, healthy and firm tissue results.
The reason for this is in the peculiar slim
ulation Of s. s. s. which enables the cells
in the skin to select from the blood the nutri-
ment 1t requires for regeneration.

WELL-KNOWN RESIDENT
dies IN ALEXANDRIA
Frederick ]. Geisendafer Succumbs at
Age of Eighty-6ve After
Long Illness.
MANY CASES SET FOR TRIAL

Alexandria, Va. March 2.-Frederick ].
Geisendaffer. eighty-five years old. one
OF Alexandria's oldest residents, died ear
ly this afternoon at his home. 600 South
Lee street, after a long illness. He is
survived by two children-Charles Geisen-
daffer and Mrs. James II. Smith.
Mr.. Geisendaffer was the Oldest member
of Potomac Lodge OF Odd Fellows, this
city. Members of this organization will
attend the funeral in a body. The ar
rangements for the funeral have not
been completed.
In early life Mr.. Geisendaffer was en-
gagged in railroading. being a member OF
the crew of the passenger train on the
old Orange and Alexandria Railroad.
At the outbreak of the civil war Mr.
Geisendaffer became identified with the
Adams Express Company, where he re-
mained for many years. being compelled
to relinquish that position owing to the
infirmities of old age.

While we. are borrowing our terms
and formulas in the new reserve act
from Europe, 1t must be distinctly un-
derstood that these can be made ap-
plicable only under new rules from the
reserve board. We have no such bill
markets, or acceptance markets, as
Europe possesses. Commercial paper
by the, European and by the older
American standards was a note given,
for goods. and so timed that sale of
the goods would meet the note. Ac-
ceptances are drafts. sometimes with
collateral or bills of lading attached.
and accepted by the banker for pay
ment sixty or ninety days hence. Such
acceptances sell in the market upon
the bankers name and credit. and mil
lions are invested in Europe in this
form of security.
The American higher money rates
f4using discounts for cash have largely
alEiven out the older forms OF CONNER
sesal paper. A buyer being offered or
: per cent discount for cash. instead Of
sixty or ninety days credit, 'fmme-
dSately figures the rate Of interest. and
rashes to his bank, IL need be, to get
the cash and the advantage Of such a
high interest rate.
The result is that today, in the United
States, commercial paper is largely bank
borrowing upon the name and credit OF
a single commercial house.
Our system Superior.
Modern economists are declaring that
the American system of commercial bor-
rowing is superior to the European. In
Europe it is the name of the banker
merchant, Barings, Kleinwort. &C.. that
carries the paper and get the low rate.
In Is credit
the goods themselves and the merchant
or manufacturer who is handling them.
1t is not yet clear that the European
system is to prevail in this country over
the American system in this twentieth
century era.
The Federal reserve board must rule
that borrowings for merchandise pur-
poses that are good at the member bank
must be accepted as commercial paper in
rediscount at the reserve panK.
The first decision upon this matter may
arise when the member banks offer half
their installment payments to the re-
serve banks in the form of "eliSible pa
per-" as noted in section 19: but "as de-
scribed in section II properly indorsed
and acceptable to the said reserve bank"
Section II reads:
ANY Federal reserve bank may, under
rules and regulations prescribed by the
Federal reserve board, purchase and sell
in the open market, at home or abroad,
either from or to domestic or foreign
banks, firms, corporations, or individuals,
cable transfers and bankers acceptances
and bills OF exchange of the kinds and
