A TONIC IN THE
SPRING INCREASES
YOUR EFFICIENCY
Lay the Foundation of Good Health Now by Building Up
Your Blood and Strengthening Your Nerves.

The good old fashion of taking Il
tonic in the springtime. like most of
the customs of our grandfathers, is
based upon sound common sense and
good medical practice. No matter
how mild the winter it is trying
time, even in the most favored eli
mates. for those who are not in the
most rugged physical health. Many
men, women and children go through
the winter upon the reserve strength
that they have stored up during the
sunny, summer months and grow in
creasingly thin and pale as the
spring days approach. A tonic for
the blood and nerves at this time will
do much for such people. by putting
color in cheeks and lips and Danish
ing the tired feeling that made
''spring fever" in the old days an
other name for laziness.
You cannot be energetic if your
blood is thin and weak. You can
not compete with others in business
II you are nervous, If you do not get
refreshing sleep at night or il you
are losing in weight. You need a
tonic at this time to add to your eff
cheney as we'll as to save you from
suffering later on. A non alcoholic
tonic is best suited for most cases
of debility. for stimulants aggravate
many forms of nervousness. That
such a remedy is available. with
complete directions for home use
that makes building up your strength
a comparatively simple matter, is
shown by the following well anthem
ticated cases.

and it wasn't until she discovered
this tonic that she was able to re-

II was very weak and run down
and seemed to be tired all the time
and without ambition for my work

President Not Congress Superior

Senator Calder Of New York wants
Congress to come together in spite
Of President Wilson's decision not to
call an extra session. The Constitn-
ton says the President may convene
one or both houses on extraordinary
occasions but does not say they can
convene hemsclves.-Portland Ar
gus.
Nor Goes j. say they canno.. 3ht
1t does say: "All legislative powers
herein granted shall be vested in the
Congress Of the United States"
The Constitution recognizes the
equality Of executive and legislative
branches. stipulating that Congress
SHALL meet at least once a year
and permitting it to fix its own time.
At the same time it recognizes the
possibility Of an emergency which
the executive department would un-
derstand and the widely scattered
members Of the Congress would not,
SO 1t provides that the Executive
MAY call Congress in extraordinary
session. II. in his opinion, the emer-
gency warrants it. Such an emer-
gency is not required Of The Con-
gress II. in its judgment, i: should
meet at another date than that pre-
vicufly agreed upon.
In other words, the executive
branch is not sole judge Of the rights
or duties Of another and equal
branch Of our government. Indeed
the legislative may overrule the de-
visions Of the executive-because,

Judgment of q great deliberative

A seemingly good suggestion is
