SUFFRAGE NEEDS
 BUT TWO STATES
Washington and Delaware Are Now Counted on to Complete the
 Amendment Ratification

Mrs Pattie Ruffner Jacobs was greatly pleased last night by the news that West Virginia had ratified the wo- mans suffrage amendment
 This makes the thirty-fourth state to ratify." said Mrs. Jacobs "so that only two more are necessary. The two states which will next be heard from are Washington and Delaware. The governors of those two states have called special sessions of the legis latures to act on the question and both legislatures will assemble March 22.
 Washington is absolutely certain to ratify and to take the action promptly We feel reasonably sure that Delaware will ratify also. If these two states should ratify the amendment by April l. this amendment will hold the record of constitutional amendment ratifiea- tions so far as length of time is con cerned."

and impair your general health.
 You should take the first in- dication of Spring fever" as an unfailing warning that your blood needs a thorough cleans ing and toning up. Impurities that have been accommodating throughout the winter season should be eliminated and the system put in the best possible condition to withstand the dan gers of summer sickness.
 Of course, you do not feel like placing. yourself under doctors care, and there is real- ly no necessity for doing so. Your system simply needs a good toning up, and for this purpose there is nothing equal to s. s. S., the fine old blood purifier and tonic that has been in successful use for more than half century.
 s. s. s. is natures own reme-' dy, being made from roots and herbs of recognized medicinal value, gathered direct from the forests. It acts directly upon the blood, promptly cleansing it of all impurities, improving the appetite and giving new strength and vigor to the entire system.

As springtime approaches, you begin to notice a loss of en- ergy, you become easily tired out and fatigued, your appetite fails and that worn-out, good for-nothing, rundown feeling seems to have complete pos session of your body. Your poor, tired out body has fallen victim to what is commonly called ''spring fever,' and a feeling of complete lassitude pervades the entire system.
 Just as plant life throws off the accumulations of the winter season, so does the human sys- tenn find it necessary to get rid of the impurities that have crept in and made the blood supply sluggish and interfered with the vigor and strength and energy that is so badly needed to enter upon the new season.
 The most important part ot the human system is the blood supply. It is absolutely neces- sary that the ever-flowin9 stream of live-giving fluid be kept pure and rich and that nc impurities be permitted te lcreep in to make it sluggish

with the rise in the ciiv's death rate the
National Casket Company Of Long Island
City has notified undertakers that the
price Of eoffins Is To advance again. DR..

not see any excuse for another increase

authorities to find out if there Is any prof.
teering being done.
This is the card the company sent out
yesterday;
TO the trade. Because OF the sharp
rise in the price Of lumber all grades enter
ing into the manufacture of caskets and
the increase in cost and shortage of textiles,
both cotton and silk. we are compelled

from the National Cssket Company that
there will be an increase In the price of
caskets. 1t seems TO me there is no excuse
for raise in price and | shall turn the
matter over TO the Federal authorities
for investigation, because it has been re-
ported TO me by undertakes that they
have been assured caskets would be cheap
