DESPIsABLE PROPAGANDA

q OMPARABLE only to the campaign of slander waged
against President Wilson during the 1916 election
which emnaed from the sources the effort to dis
credit the president and shake public confidence in him by
the circulation of unfounded and baseess reports con-
cenng his Illness Certain United States senators are in
dustrously candestinely openly asserting that the
president has suffered stroke of paralysis or is losing
his mind and will never again he able to perform the
duties of his office.
One would think that the presidents illness would
awaken the sympathy of his enemies and that
sonal warfare on the executive would cease pending his
convaescence So insane is the DESIRE however of cer
tam senators to get rid Of him. that they have actually
started movement to force him out of office for the
remainder of his term on the ground Of disability.
The statements of the eminent physicians attending
the president have not been regarded as sufficient The
latter have subbony refused to enter into specific de-
mails OF the many rumors started in the senate cloak
room lest their denias add to the circulation Of the r
moIs The president has been i'll two weeks and is suf
erng from nervous breakdown occasoned by the pro
longed strain he has been under and only period Of
absolute rest will restore himbut the senate is bound
ne will have no rest No symptoms Of paralysis or other
BRAN disturbances have developed or are now feared
He is as clear in mind as ever
truly petty partisanshp overaps itself when it
soops to wage such malicious propaganda against the
distinguished patient who is very sick man and needs
the helps and sympathy Of all in his hours Of illness.

THE DARK DAY

When the day Of sickness comes, as
it comes TO every gent, and you sit, with
folded thumbs, far too weak to earn Il
cent, Will you have your little roll, to
deffay the beastly bills, to procure the
grub and coal, and to buy the needed
pillss Feeling well, mon do not think,
do not keep that day in view, when
their health is on the blink, when they
have the itch or flu; and they blow in
all they make, blow it with their hearts
serene, for glad rags and angel cake,
blazing gems and gasoline. Each one
thinks he is immune, sickness will not
come his way, and he blows the round
doubloon in his large and princely way.
But some morning there S call for the
doctor and the nurse; there S congestion
Of his gall, and he's hourly growing
worse. And he lies around in bed just
aSweah and futile wreck, with poultice
on his head, and a plaster on his meek.
And his wife has pawncd her d,lds, and
she 's ashing by the day, in cloud Of
steam and suds, just keep the wolf
away. And he hates himself so bad!
And he sighs, "When am well / will

IS YOUR SKIN
ABLAZE WITH
FIERY YITCHINGS?

I impurities in the blood cause millions
of tiny disease germs to set ap their
attack on the surface of the skin, and
in the form of pimples, bols, scaly
eruptiona and itchy, burning irrit a.
tions, begin their disfiguring and de-
struetive work.
Being in the blood, these disease
germs can be reached only through the
blood, and local applications have no
effect whatever. That is why salvcs,
ointments, lotions, washes and other
remedies applied to the skin can do
no more than give merely temporary
relief. Soon the fiery itching breaks
out again, for such treatment cannot
reach the source of the trouble.
If you want genuine relief from the
torturcs of skin diseases, lose no time
in discarding all local remedies, and
begin taking S. S. S. today. You will be
delighted with the results, and when
you are thoroughly rid of your trou-
bic, you will praise the day you got
on the right treatment. You can get S.

It today, and if you write to our ply

'tructlons about your own case. Ad-

Don't Continue to Suffer Because of
Wrong Treatment

If you are one of the thousands who
are afflicted with any form of irritat-
ing skin disease, verify you know what
real torture is. You know well enough
what it means to lay awake at night,
rubbing and scratching your raw and
lrritated skin, in a vain endeavor to
get relief from the fiery burning.
Of course. the most serious phase of
skin disease is the almost unbearablc
suffering caused by the fiery itching
and irritation of the skin. In addition,
the disease often causes unsightly
roughness and discolorations, disfigur-

leaving its blighting marks in its wake.
