MINEOLA, N. ", July 10.-The
British dirigible R-34 left Roosevelt
field shortly before midnight on her
return cruise to Scotland.
The great ship held in leash by
! 900 American balloon men, was re-
leased, at IL so o'clock, and floated
leisurely up to height Of 200 feet
with her motors silent. The motors
then began to whirr and the craft.
nosing upward, headed for New York.
Three great searchlights playing
on the ship made her clearly discern
ible to the thousands who had gather
ed to bid her bon-voyage. With three
engines-port starboard and forward
running, and two others in reserve.
the R-34 glided off toward the south,
and then swinging in a westerly
course, brought her nose in the direc-
tion of New York.
Favorable weather conditions were
reported over the entire route save
for one spot in mid-Atlantic.
Forty pounds of official mail is
slowed aboard, including two gold
medals Of the Aero Club Of America,
awarded to Captain Alcock and Lieu
tenant Brown, who flew the Vickers-
Vimy biplane overseas from New
Foundland in the first nonstop trans
Atlantic hop" to the British isles
from North America.
In a statement to The Associated
Press Major G. II. Scott, commander
Of the dirigible, declared that he
would fly over New York, and il fav-
orable winds on the other side offer
ed, over London, on his homeward
journey to East Fortune, Scotland.
He added that il weather condi-
tions remained favorable the dirigi-
BILE should reach home shores in sew
enty hours.
1.-The climatic conditions over the
Atlantic are very bad for flying in
ships like the R-34," he said. al
though the R-34 has more than justi-
fled our hopes, transatlantic flying
in the future must be done in larger
and faster ships"
1t took the R-34 about three min
utes to rise to the height ut which she
began cruising. At III $50 she was
about 500 feet up, barely discernible
and with no lights visible and was
skimming along at speed of about
35 to 40 miles an hour.
Brigadier General Lionell Charlton,
British aviation attache in the United
States, said that the ship would en-
ploy only the three engines on which
she started unless unexpected condi-
tions arose.

A great many people, especially Ia

No More Fiery Pain If You
use the Right Treatment

First of all, get it firmly fixed in
your mind that the fiery, burning
and itching that causes such pain
and torture, is not a local skin dis
ease. True, the skin is the scene
OF the attack, but the skin Is fed by
the blood and suffers from any i'm
purity in the blood.
This explains why you have been
SO disappointed in getting any real,
lasting relief from the use Of oint-
ments. salves, lotions, or other rem
cdies applied to the surface of the
skin.
The millions of tiny disease
germs which infest the blood keep
up constant attack on the skin,
and are not effected in the least
by local treatment. They must be
routed from the blood.
These germs which saturate the
blood cannot be reached except
through the blood. When You treat
the local irritations with local an.
plications, you must remember
