 Refreshed after a nights rest, the first he has spent at the White House in four mouths, the President early today began what promised to be one of the busiest days of his career as chief executive of the United States. In addition to the vast amount of routine work which had accumulated during his long stay at the peace conference at Paris and which in cluded the signing of q number of important appropriation measures passed recently by Congress, the President had planned conferences throughout the day with congression- al leaders and members of his cabin- ct and executive staff.
 It also was expected that If time was available, later in the day, the members of the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee would be received at the White House for a conference on the peace treaty.

 Painting
Well Known Bridgeport Painter Thought He Would Have
 to Give Up Working.

William J. Geatons of 363 Strat- ford avenue had been complaining to his friends for years about the pains in his back. They bod suggested everything that they knew of to help him get away from the suffering but without avail. MT. Geatons had tried ve,ything. One day he read of what CINOT was doing for others so he purchased a bottle suspicious of the fact that it was like the rest. After several days the following was re-' ceived by the CINOT EXPERT.
 T just can't find words to properly describe the good that CINOT has done for me. My kidneys have al- ways been weak and my illness caus- ed by my weak kidneys have caused me years of suffering. I have been doing much contracting work along painting and paperhanging lines and stretching as I was forced to over my head used to shoot pains all over my body so badly that I was completely discouraged.
 Then I read of CINOT. didn't exactly believe how good 1t was but I was willing to give it a test. I have and now I can say>that l am feeling fine. I am going to stick to CINOT. It affords me the greatest of relief and I am truly thankful for the help it has given me. Now I can go out and do a days work without coming home with terrible back ache after a long tedious day of suffering. NY
 q was 80 bad at one time that ls was considering 1t best that stop work. I had absolutely no ambition. In fact I was Respondent at times that I became insensible to the pain But now it's different. Thank Heavens that CINOT was tried by myself. | recommend it to all sufferers who are as I was.",
