SAFE FOR HEART
improved Tablet, Called Aspitone,
Retains All the Medicinal Virtues,
But is Slightly Stimulating Instead
OF Depressing to- the Heart-Docs
Not Upset Stomach.

Physicians and druggists are de-
hghted with Aspitone, the improved
aspirin tablets, that do not depress
the heart nor upset the stomach. All
VINO have tried the new tablet are
delighted with its quick and agree
able effects and claim that it is much
more ehective and in every way su-
perior to the old styie aspirin. Ply
slcians maintain that its safety alone
should give it preference over all
other remedies for headache, n,u-
raigia. rheumatism and especially
Tor severe colds and influenza, in all
OF which diseases the heart is said to
be weakened and should be stimu-
lated rather than depressed.
The new Aspitone Is slightly
stimulating instead OF depressing to
the heart. 1t relieves pain, fever,
and the tendency toward congestion
nnd pneumonia quicker and more
completely than does aspirin, and is
entirely free Of the heart-depressing
effect

EXPECTS COVENANT TO
MEET ALL OBJECTIONS
senator Hitchcock Says As Amended
Ii Will BE Ratified With
Treaty.

Washington. April 3-Senator
Hitchcock. of Nebraska. chairman
OF the foreign relations committee
in the last senate speaking before
the Washington Commercial club,
expressed the belief that the propos.
ed covenant of the league of ma
tions would be amended "as public
opinion has demanded" and togeth-
or with the peace treaty would be
ratified without change when sub
mitted to the senate. The Nebraska
senator urged the necessity OF a
prompt peace settlement in order
to stop the spread OF lawlessness in
Europe
This treaty when il comes to the
senate" Senator Hitchcock said,
will have had its benefit OF criti-
cism not only in the United States
hut in other countries and will prob
ably include such amendments as
public opinion has demanded
when the peace settlement comes
over here for the ratification of the
senate il will probably be too late
for the senate 70 attempt amend
ments. Any amendment adopted by
the senate would have to go back
for acceptance by the other 13 ma.
tions, and that would delay the
peace settlement for n long time.
Delays are said 70 be dangerous and
in this case they are dangerous in
the highest degree because at the
present the very life of civilization
in Europe is at stake. If a peace
settlement is not produced at an ear
1y date the spread Of Ia wieSsncss
and despair may involve still more
of Europe"
Senator Hitchcock said that one
OF the curious features OF the op.
position to the proposed covenant
was the variety and inconsistency
OF that opposition. He added that
there were mot many who are OPP
posed on principle to the idea OF a
league OF nations"
