liners. He believes they are admirably

is a sort of battleship that is lighter and
faster than the dreadnought. One of the
hulls. which he has carefully examined,
that of the cruiser Lexington at Quincy,
Mass, he is convinced would make a
liner superior to any now existing. 1t

1000 second class and 1000 stcerage
passengers, and beat any of our present
liners in speed. Apparently it would cost
no more to finish the cruisers in this way
than according to the original plans, 1t
might cost less. And they would make a
big addition to our merchant marine.
Two other cruiser hulIs, he thinks,
could be converted into airplane carriers.

If such use can fairly be made of these
crafts, why scrap them?

Thousands of people have testified to
the remarkable value of these pure essen
tial oil tablets, which bring such quick
relief in cases of Hoarseness, Loss of
Voice. Soreness, or Tickling in Throat,
bronchitis. Bronchial irritation, Bronchial
Asthma, Coughs, Colds, and as proven,
tatiye against Grippe, Influenza and

value of pure essential oil in cases of this
kind if they are always kept in the house
for use in case of an emergency, they may
save you many days of serious illness or
