Give Thanks in w. S. S.,
Urges D. J. Callahan

That Washington observe Thanks
giving Day in a fitting manner by the
purchase of war savings stamps is the
suggestion emanating from ID. J. Cal
lahan, director of the District of Co.
lumbia war savings committee.
Thanksgiving Day should mean
more to us this year than ever be-
fore" he states, for the victory of
American arms overseas has given
this nation extraordinary cause for re-
joicing. Let us in Washington, the
nations Capital. make II more tnan
a mere form OF words or a day of
feasting
If we truly rejoice at the termina-
tion of the wer. let US express it IN
the purchase of more war savings
stamps. Let our thanksgiving for vic
tory be something tangible. The gov
ernment has assigned us quota Of
$4,000 in war savings stamps to dis
pose of during the year. and we have
not yet disposed of this allotment"

and scatter, by means OF the
blood circulation, throughout your
system.
The sensible treatment for this
disease, and the only one from
which you can expect permanent
results, is a treatment that goes
down into the blood supply and
reaches the source Of the disease.
S. S. S. is a wonderful blood rem
edy, and is the logical treat
ment for Rheumatism, because it
promptly permeates the entire
blood supply and searches out and
eliminates the disease germs.
If you are a victim Of Rheuma-
tism, you can take S. S. S. with the
assurance that you are not expert
menting, but using a remedy that
has brought relief to thousands
who have suffered from this pain
full disease. This great old rem
edy has been sold all over the
United States for more than fifty
years, and has been used with
gratifying results. 1t is a great
blessing for a sufferer to become
acquainted with the powers OF
s. S. S, for in this remedy is
found the help that can come only
from the proper treatment.
Many letters have been written
to us by those who have used
s. S. s., telling OF the good it has
done them. Their statements will
be helpful to many others who suf-
fer, and we will be glad to send
you some of these testimonials,
full of this direct evidence of the
value OF S. S. S.
We maintain a medical depart
ment for the benefit of all who are
afflicted, and our Chief Medicla
Adviser, who is familiar with all
forms Of Rheumatism, will gladly
give you advice without charge as
to the treatment of your own case.

Proves Itself Master of This
Painful Disease.

Hallway treatment of Rheuma-
tism will never rid you OF it. Bet
ter realize from the outset that
when Rheumatism attacks you
have a real battle on your hands,
and that it's a mans job to get
rid of it.
Temporizing with Rheumatism
by the use of liniments, lotions
and other external methods of
treatment, is like trying to coax
an enemy to let up in his attacks,
and permit you to conquer him
without resistance
But you soon learn that Rheu-
matism will not treat you with
this consideration. The tiny little
germs flock together by the
millions and center their attack
with undivided force. The effects
5f the disease are gradual in TAX
ing hold on the system. in fact,
The pains are only slight at first
and do not attract your serious
attention, but they gradually in
crease in severity until your en-
lire system is firmly within the
grip Of the disease. 1t is then that
you have a real fight on your
hands, for you will find that Rheu-
r.-tism is a foe that knows just
row to cripple you. The pains that
we're hardly noticeable at first be-
come your constant companions
and seem to take delight in your
suffering.
OF course, if this painful disease
Mas on the surface only, you
might reasonably expect to get re-
ief by the use OF surface remedies,
such as liniments and other local
applications. But the source of
he disease is your blood. The
my dVease germs find lodgment

PLOT SPOILED
MOTOR PARTS
Aircraft Delays in U. S. Due

That German sympathizers were re-

tary Baker had several officers eX-
plain the various steps in produc-

II was also shown by these officers
that, Notwithstanding the changes in

far ahead of the allies, who near The

Col Ayres. who had charge of the
officers making the various state
ments. issued the following statis-
tics:
There have been produced in this
country during the period OF the pres
ent emergency in excess of 1900 air
planes, 5000 aviation motors, and ZOO
kite balloons.
1T fell to the United States to SUD-
ply spruce for the entire air program
of the allies and the United States,
In October. 1917. these requirements
were 100000 feet per month, with
only 100000 feet per month being
produced. In October. 1918. the re-
quirements were 20.000O00 feet per
month, with over 5000 600 feet being
produced"
Nearly five thousand combat planes
had been delivered to the American
Expeditionary Forces up to the time
OF the close of hostilities.
During the production it was found
that workmen had to be trained; that
the first efforts were not at all salts

duced had to be done over again. and
that there was reason to believe that
German sympathizers had purposeIy
