PRETTY WAR WORKERS
LIKE SECRETARY'S TALK
Cheer Mr.. Wilson's Hope for
Woman's Suffrage, Spoken in
Recreation Hall Dedication.

Four hundred war workers broke
into a three-minute volley of cheers
when Secretary of Labor Wilson ex-
pressed his hope that woman suffrage
would soon be a reality. during

ton hall opened last night for the
Union station plaza colony of war
workers.
Secretary Wilson declared that in
ages past the absolute emperor had
''all the say" in managing things in
q country. Later a system had sprung
up whereby the royalty and nobility
did the ruling. After that came a
government which included the COM
rnercial men or the bourgeois class
1t has now evolved to the stage, he
declared, where the working man and
laborer is given a chance to express
his opinion in the matter of govern
ment. The time is very near when
women will receive the same voting
privilege, he concluded.
Secretary Wilson was accompanied
by Louis F. Post, assistant secretary
of labor. Surrounded by scores Of
pretty war workers. they ate dinner
in the dining hall before the celebra-
ton, and after the ceremonies were
over Secretary Wilson shook hands
with every one present.

the women of the republican party

NEW TREATMENT THAT
KNOCKS RHEUMATISM
7so BOX FREE TO ANY SUFFERER

Up in Syracuse, N. Y, a treatment
for rheumatism has been found that
hundreds of users say is a wonder,
reporting cases that seem LITTLE short
of miraculous. Just few treat
ments even in the very worst cases
seem to accomplish wonders even
after other remedies have failed en-
tirely. 1t seems to neutralize the
uric acid and lime salt deposits in
the blood, driving all the poisonous
clogging waste from the system.
Soreness, pain, stiffness, swelling
just seem to melt away and vanish.
The treatment first introduced by
Mr.. Delano is so good that its owner
wants everybody that suffers from
rheumatism or who has a friend so
afflicted TO get free 75c package
from him to prove just what ii will
do in every case before a penny is
spent. Mr. Delano says: "To prove
that the Delano treatment will posi-
lively overcome rheumatism, no mat
ter how severe, stubborn or hong
standing the case, and even after all
other treatments have failed, | wiz.
If you have never previously used the
treatment, send you a full siXe l1c
