The Scotch Imminent known as "NTys-
FERROUS Pain Ease penetrates in such
a way that it relieves Inflammation and
pain ceases to exist. s.s
Many people in all walks of life have
heartily endorsed it. Users of 'Mys-

pains of rheumatism, neuralgia, sprains
Of all kinds, neuritis, iumbagO, sciatica,
burns, muscle cramps, stiff neck, chill
blains, muscular colds where the Shout

Pain is a matter of infiammation-if
You can overcome the inflammation the

\ Scotch doctor got up the formula
of this famous Scotch linment and ii
did stop pain so surely and quickly that
people thought there must be something

FRANKLIN NJ H., jan. 19.-The

territory, We're laid off and it will be
necessary to get more money from con-
greSs before the work can be resumed
The bureau has been conducting a
fight in this state against having the
dreaded tree pest invading the White
mountain forests. 1t is realized that
once the gypsy moth gets n foothold i'm
the mountains that human effort can
not prevent the entire mountain forest
region from becoming infested. For the
last few years especially effective efforts
have been made in keeping the moths
from extending into all new territory in
northern New Hampshire and Vermont
In Massachusetts and Connecticut
similar work has brought good results
Within year new infestations have
been found in the states of New York
and New Jersey and the department is
using its resources now in a crusade
against the pest in those states
BecauSe the federal government has
made such an active campaign in New
Hampshire it has not been necessary to
CXpend much state money. but the opin-
ion prevails here that unless congress al
lows money enough to continue some of
the work, the state will have to aid in
saving its forests

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19-W. Z. g.
Harding, governor Of the federal reserve
board. doesn't talk about business condi-
tionS very often. BUT when he does. he
tells some significant things about the en-
tire financial and business situation.
That's why the address which he prepared
for the New York state bankers meeting,
complete copies Of which were made avail
able today. is worthy of study.

Mr.. Harding. by the philosophy of an

many bits of wisdom attributed 70 C1nfu-

what expcdients might have been resOrted

great expansion. and the recent war was
no exception Periods of great expansion
have always been followed by periods of
reaction. and the reaction is usually most
severe where expansion has been greatest.
The establishments which have taken place
i'm this country since last spring have been
painful. paper profits have been wiped
out. and in many cases those who have
produced goods and commodities al Il high
