Mayor Harry NJ Schriver an
nounced today that he expects to
cab the members Of lower Rock
Island county tuberculosis associa-
ton together as soon as the Red
Cross seal funds are placed at the
disposal of the organization.
There is approximately $500 OF
this money, the share of the lower
part of the county out of the Red
Cross seal sales since 1917. A por-
ton of the money will be turned
over by DR.. Joseph De Silva and
a portion by DR.. A. N. Mueller, the
mayor said.
The mayor announced that in all
probability local nurse will be
employed to make the contemplated
tuberculosis survey.
The mayor has received letter
from DR.. Russell f. Adkins, mem
Der of the state association, who
launched the local group in the
work. saying that the state has nc
interest in the matter of obtaining
nurse as long as the nurse OD-
tanned is competent in tuberculosis
work. The mayor said that he be.
lieves that some local nurse car
be found who is familiar with al
phases OF this work.

For Mr.. Wilson's letter defending

against all other kinds of reserva-
tons does several things.
Hoover Thinks Otherwise.
1t separates Mr.. Wilson from Mr..
Hoover, who declared recently that
he had enough faith in the League
of Nations to try it even with the
Lodge reservations.
1t discourages Democratic sem
ators who have been working for
compromise on article X and
who have offered interpretative
reservations. These, Mr.. Wilson
dismisses as a work Of "superero-
CATION
1t revives talk of third term
for Mr.. Wilson, who Intentionally
or Intentionally has not taken the
least pains to refute the impress
sion that he wants to prolong the

another campaign in his own be-

1t confirms the viewpoint of SEN

have argued all along that the
league involves a distinct depart
ure in American foreign policy and
that if Mr.. Wilson is right, the COW
enant should be adopted without
qualification and if he is wrong, ii
should be rejected entirely with
out going through the camouf1age
of reservations. Mr.. Wilson de-
fines the alternatives the same
way. He sees no middle ground.

Philadelphia, Pa.--Do you wear glasses:

to know that according to DR.. Lewis

read everything without any glasses and
my eyes do not water any more. At night
they would pain dreadfuily: now they feel
fine all the time. 1t was like a miracle

glasses but after using this prescription
for 10 days everything seems clear. | can
even read fine print without glasses 1t
is believed that thousands who wear glasses
can now discard them in a reasonable time

Famous Old Recipe
for Cough Syrup
Easily and cheaply made Mt homo,
but 1t beats them all for
quick results.

Thousands of housewives have found
that they can save two-thrds OF the
money usually spent for cough prepara-
tions, by using the weli-known old recipe
for making cough syrup at home. Ii
is simple and cheap but it has no equal
for prompt results. 1t takes right hold
of cough and gives immediate reiief,
usually stopping an ordinary cough in
"a hours or less.
Get 2a ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour it into a pint bottle and
add plain granulated sugar syrup to
make a full pint. If you prefer, use
clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead of sugar syrup. Either way, 1t
tastes good, keeps perfectly, and lasts
q family a long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly il
acts, penetrating through every ali
passage of the throat and lungs-loos-
ems and raises the phlegm, soothes and
heals the. membranes, and gradually but
surely the annoying throat tickle and
dreaded cough disappear entirely. Nothing
better for bronchitis, spasmodic Group,
hoarseness or bronchial asthma.
Pinex is a special and highly concen-
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, known the world over for
its healing effect on the membranes.
Avoid Disappointment by asking your
druggist for "2A ounces of Pinex" with
full directions and don't accept anything
else. Guaranteed to give absolute salts.
