PIMPLES EASILY
GOTTEN RID OF
Simple Home Treatment
Without Salves or
Lotions.

The cause OF nine-tenths Of the
pimples people have is faulty diges-
tion. stomach trouble, inactive liver
and constipation. When this is under
stood the matter of getting rid Of
pimples becomes a very simple one,
once the right remedy IS found. The
great success of Mr. Tablets as 8
treatment for pimples lies in the fact
that this remedy not only rouses the
liver to activity and relieves constipa-
ton but IL also contains certain vege-
table elements which tone up and cor
rect the stomach, promote the flow
of gastric Juice and relieve ferments-
ton in stomach and intestines.
1t is recommended that anyone with
pimples take Natures Remedy (NR
Tablets) every night before retiring
do this for few nights running and
they will find that their compilations
will clear. the pimples will disappear
and they will feel better in every
way.
For everyone that is constipsted or
'1iverish' or anyone suffering with
rheumatism-young or old-our advice
is, take an Mr. Tablet tonight and
you'll feel better in the morning. Get
a 25c box at any druggists. Guaran-
teed or your money back.

FEAR FILIBUSTER
ON SHIPPING BILL
Democrats May Use Gas"
Rule to Get Wilson Plan
Through House.
HEAVY SEA LIES AHEAD
Income, Inheritance and Munitions
Taxes May Be Used to Provide
Funds for Preparedness.
Open $3.50 A. M.

Democratic leaders Of the House who
are afraid that parliamentary storm is
brewing which may threaten the legisla-
tive program, will attempt during the
present week to trim their sails to avert
the disaster.
The slow progress made on the agrf-
culture appropriation bill, which has
been under consideration for ten days.
has led the majority leaders to suspect
that the Republicans are contemplating
a filibuster to defeat the ship-purchase
bill and one or two other measures which
the President has tagged as imperative.
The administration leaders have decld-
ed to bring in these measures at once
and have the fight over. Gag" rules
may be brought in to cut short the de-
hate.
The passage Of the shipping bill and
the Philippine bill will not end the
troubles Of the majority leaders. A reve-
nue. bill must still be framed and passed
10 provide the money with which to pay
the preparedness bills. The Ways and
Means Committee has under considera-
tion A proposal to provide additional rev.
onue by increasing the income tax rate,
Federal Inheritance tax. and a special
income tax on war munitions. Such
plan. it has been suggested. would meet
with the approval of a large number OF
Republicans.

Il have seen a great many inspiring
sights at Harvard, but this is really the
best" said Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, u.
S. A.. as he watched the Harvard regi-
ment at drill on a recent visit to Cam
bridge. Gen. Wood himself is Harvard
man and therefore has q personal inter-
est in the regiment which is Harvard
answer to the national call for prepared
ness. 1t means that in the future the
university expects to turn into civil life
every four years at least 1000 young
men, every one of whom will be prepared
to serve the country as q Junior officer
OF the army in the event of a national
crisis
Officers of the regular army will tell
you, says the New York Times, that no
single institution in this country has done
more to further the cause of sane and
reasonable national preparedness than
has Harvard, and this refers not only TO
undergraduates. but to graduates as well
The Plattsburg idea, which brought
nearly 1000 business and professional men
to the shores of Lake Champlain last
summer for a months intensive. military
training, was the result of q little meet
ing Of Harvard men held at the Harvard
Club in New York. No.other two insti-
tutions combined enrolled half as many
men at Plattsburg as did Harvard, and

The Harvard Regiment is commanded
by Capt. Constant Cordier, U. s. A.
Although the regiment was formed on
January 10, Of this year" Capt Cordier
remarked. the birth OF the organization
really dates back to some time in Novem-
Der, 1915, when a number of Harvard
students gathered together at Cambridge
in order TO aid in the nationwide move
ment for preparedness. The enthusiasm
was so great that in a short time their
numbers increased beyond the full
strength of battalion, and, as a result,
the regiment was created. Today its
strength is, exclusive of the band, over
l10O men.
ITO carry on the course OF training
now prescribed and TO At the students for
the camps of instruction to be held this
summer. under government supervision,
means a strict observRnce Of the regula-
tions, and hard work on the part Of every
one.
I'm all this land there is no better ma
terial for officers than is found in the
student body of Harvard. They are a
splendid. manly set of fellows, and it is
a pleasure TO work with them. I am nat
urally more than pleased with what has
already been accomplished, and am
sure that in another year. on top of the
experience they will gain at the training
camps this summer, we will be in a posi-
ton to supply a goodly number OF pros
pective officers for our volunteer forces.

League at its meeting at Pythian Temple

editor and publisher of Religious Lib

consequence of the war will be a world
federation of religions or churches, and
that the Predominant consequence of the
war will be union of these two world
federations-a world union of church and
state, OF federated nations and federated
churches.
Mr.. Jones maintained there is no visi-
BILE church and that every individual is
absolutely free and independent of all
organizations, not only political, but &C.

God.
