6rmer hold on your system.
Rheumatism is a stubborn dis
ease. 1t is not on the surface.
therefore you must not expect to be
able to cure it with remedies ap-
piled to the surface. No one ever
yet effected a permanent cure in
this way. so why should you con-
tinue to suffer while relying upon
treatment that has failed in thou
sands of cases?
The experience of others afflicted
with Rheumatism is your best guide
and by following their advice you
can not only saye yourself uptold
suffering. but rid yourself of dis
ease that will eventually wreck your
body, and leave you helpless. Al
most every victim of Rheumatism
has practically the same experience.
They are so impressed with the
pains and suffering of the disease
and are so anxious TO get nd Of
them that they have treated the
pains alone. and overlooked their
cause. They have rubbed with lin

Retention Of Compsfol-
Ter Of Currency.

The nomination Of John skelton
Williams to remain comptroller of the
currency was rejected by the Senate
Banking and Currency Committee by
q vote of 10 to Z. The vote was on
strict party division. The committees
action. it was said, was based on the
belief that Williams is Temperament

Williams rejection by the commit

during which extended hearings have

Testimony centered around the famous
Riggs Bank case. and officials of this
institution and other banks appeared
before the committee and charged that
Williams Fad treated them unfairly:
Williams may hold office until his

PLANS BUSLINE
TO DEFEAT CARS
Jan H. Kan Thinks Work
ers Can Rent Trucks
From Government.

Jan II. Kan. s14 South Carolina
avenue southeast. has plan for boot
ing the high cost of transportation,
Instead of paying more hard-earned
pennies to the street car companies.
he suggests the travelling public start
their own line Of carriers. in this man
ner: ~
That those fsvoring, the plan who
have Liberty bonds, pledge these
bonds with the government as Sc
curity for the loan Of a number Of
power trucks and large autos. to be
used in conveying government WORK
ers and others to and from their work.
from and to any point with the Dis
trict. 81.
The fare on these autos or trucks
would be cents. per ride per per-
son. with books OF Is tickets for 81,
and the load would be limited to their
seating capacity.
The only expense will be for actual
current operation. Surplus earnings
would be distributed every three
months among the patrons, in proper
ton to the volume Of their patronage
as shown by the books OF tickets eacn
had bought. the cover of a used book
being accepted as cash for the amount
of the dividend declared on each book
For example. IL the excess earnings
should justify a dividend OF 5 cents
per book. a patron holding the covers
of six used books. could get a new
book for the six used covers and 70
cents in cash.
Mr.. Kan thinks that there could be
no safer place for the bonds thar
with the government. and the interest
would be paid to the owners OF them
| when due. just as though they were
in their possession.
He invites all who favor the plan
to communicate with him.
