Want to Stay by Q. S.
Asked if this could be construed as
meaning the states would withdraw
from the present league in such event,
Senior Restrepo said: I'VE would have
to wait and see, but, nevertheless, it is
question if public opinion in South
America would support two leagues"
The South American countries are
finding that questions before the
league are purely European in inter
est, continued Senior Restrepo.
Colombia, for example, came into
the League of Nations only because
we thought the United States would
be member, and would, in a sense
be the leader and protector of all the
states of Norts and South America
I'VE see now that we were badly
mistaken and that the United States
probably never will join the present
league This caused us to think. and

Rheumatism Due ToWaste
Products In The Blood
For Genuine Relief Your Blood Must
Be Purified

AS the blood circulates, it has two
functions to perform. First: to carry
nourishment to all parts of the body.
Second: to take up the waste pro-
ducts and cast them out through the
proper channels.
When waste products accumulate IN
the system, they are a menace to life.
They cause a lowered vitality, many
forms of skin disorders and rheuma-
tism.
There is no disease more painful:
nor a disease that will lead to as
much serious trouble as rheumatism
Genuine relief can be had only by cor
recting the basic trouble-waste pro-
ducts.
Thousands and thousands of men
and women during the past so years
have cleared their blood of waste
products with S. s. S. II is the ideal
remedy for rheumatism, because Il
