Boston, March 25.-Long years of
controversy over the issue of liber-
alizing the Sunday laws in Massachu-
sets, to legalize amateur games on
.ne Lords Day in the name of recrea-
ion, eliminated today in the success
Of hat crusade in the Legislature. Pre-
viously having gone through the Sem

prevailed by q pronounced majority
in the House, 131 TO So, on standing
vote, and a call of the yeas and nays
was not obtained.
An attempt to put the proposition
over o the Legislature Of next year
was rebuffed. This was fought
through 10 a roll call, the verdict of
which was 60 to 146 Defeat also was
the reward of an effort to strike out
The emergency preamble, by which the

Hence there is the indication that

that the act would be held up 10 give
time for application of the initiative
and referendum, thereby making it at
the least. imperative this year, will

RUN DOWN? GOLDINE NO. /
is THE TONIC YOU NEED

This is the time of year when you
must guard your health most care
fully. If you've had cold during the
winter, your system is not in the best
of condition If you have recently re-
covered from the flu, you are far from
being out of danger for many of the
organs in your body are in a weaken
ed state and ready to receive and fos-
ter germs of all diseases.
This is the time to build up your.
body. This is the time to strengthen
those weakened organs. You know
germs of all kinds are surrounding you.
All that can keep them from getting
a hold on you is a good healthy body
in good condition. If your stomach is
in poor shape if your lungs are not
in the best condition, if you have lost
weight and feel dragged out and run
down, you are inviting all the sickness,
perhaps fatal.
The surest and easiest way to re-
build your body, to replace the worn
out tissue and to get all the organs
in good condition, is to take Goldine
No. /, the herb remedy. This medi-
cine, which thousands have declared
is the best in the world, contains no
harmful drugs or acids, only tissue
building, good medical herbs.
This is what Goldine No. did for
Mr.. John Lickburg, ia Hemlock Ave-,
Karns, Pa:
