MERITED TRIBUTE TO LEGION
LesIie's Weekly EdltoriaI|y Honors
Brave Men Who Served in
the World War.

1.-THE American Legion begins to look
like a full.page composite photograph
of geographic Americanism from Put
nam to Pershing," reads a recent ed.
Itorial in Leslie's Weekly. 1T moves
with the weight Of the Battle Hymn
Of the Republic" and the levity Of
Yankee Doodle" with Il ululant yell
from Dixie" It's large composition
IS token Of great trust, and the old
Roman legiOns, and other legions Of
time, begin to look like pop-guns. 1t

nor win a woman's-quite different

dam. Its manners are quiet; its men,
DRY is excellent; its emotions are
strong, and It is prepared to roll all
the refractory elements in one bundle
and hang them on one hook.
without a proclamation, an agita-
ton or unlooslng a pack of schemes,
1t has created a civil prestige to match
its military splendor. Old soldiers of
all ages and all lands are prone to
harp on one string, but the tramp Of
the Legion is in time and tune with
all the chords Of throbbing life. 1t is
not merely handsome clay in uniform;
but sinewed in manhood from its toes
to its brains. It has that delightful
mixture of sense and spirit, of power
and chivalry, of shop and farm, which
tickles the popular taste. 1t neither
beats over its woes nor boasts Of It's
prowess.
when the mighty military machine
dissolved in our citizenship the frag-
ments coalesced through the SYM
pathetic attraction of a high purpose
for in defending the institutions Of
America the Legion learned how to
value them. Thus 1t possesses a moral
prerogatlve to tread down lurking dis
loyalty. We are proud to be the faith
ers and mothers, cousins and aunts of
the Legion. We shall sleep sound at
nights. And when the historian winds
up the task Of glory-painting its bat
ties we trust that he will use a golden
drop Of ink in stating that congress-

Devonshire and OH the continent. Coal-hod is an old-fash- toned name for scuttle. Gas light can be traced back over POO years. A Mir. T.

Practical lighting, however, came very slowly. In 1729 q Mr. Murdoch Illuminated his house with gaslight, and q very poor show it is said to have been. He lived at Re druth, Cornwall.

Why Are Skin Diseases
 So Difficult to Overcome?

When your skin breaks out with itching eruptions, letter, rash, ec- zema, psoryasis, or other terrifying disorders, temporary relief will do you but little good, for soon all the itching and irritation breaks out afresh with renewed fury, and you soon realize that local remedies such as ointments, salves and simi- lar treatment will never rid you of your trouble.
 These troubles originate in the blood, and if you expect real sub

 The best remedy for this purpose IS S.S.S., the fine old blood remedy that purifies the blood of disease germs, and thus restores the skin to a normal and healthy condition.
