How thousands are regaining
the splendid vigor Of health

When a man "slows up"-begins
to feel his strength and vigor slip
ping away-gets run down, nerv-
Gus, irritable
One of two things is wrong.
His body is either failing to
nourish properly the living cells
which compose it, or it is failing to
throw off the poisonous waste that
gathers in the system.
Check either of these processes, even
temporarily, and health is threatened.
And yet the bodies of millions are either
half-starved or clogged up!
The fresh living cells of F1eischnann's
Yeast contain natural food-with the
very elements which help the body per-
form these two vital functions.
Like any other plant or vegetable,
yeast produces the best results when
fresh and "green"--not dried or Killed"

living yeast-always fresh. 1t is not
medicine. it is a natural food. Results
cannot be expected unless it is eaten
regularly.
- Everywhere physicians and hospitals
are prescribing F1eischmann's Yeast to
correct constipation. skin disorders, and
to restore appetite and digestion.

THE WEATHER

Almost steady rains throughout
last night and this forenoon remind
one of a day in the North Carolina
mountains when the rainy season is
on up there. This is the first weather
experience of the kind Lakeland has
had this summer and is said to be due
to an area of low pressure extending
over the lower end of the Florida
peninsula. The rains have kept the
temperature within the narrowest
range of the summer season so far,
the figures showing 70 to 80 degrees
today with "a the highest yesterday
It. will probably be showery all day.

c. FRED EDWARDS HAS GOOD
ENDORSEMENTS

G. X. Oxley, an executive of the
West Virginia Retail Clothiers' Assoc
iation, and Democrat, has this to
say Of Mr.. Edwards yesterday:
'Tm too much of a party man to
hop over in the primary, but if Mr..
Edwards wins the nomination I'm
sure III support him, because | know
his record here, and I'll have to con-
fess that he is above reproarh."

engineer, is another Edwards bootser

mess platform.
give seen too much Of this old poll
tical game to know what now is no
time to take any chances. And I'm
for Edwards. We know him; we
know what he will do, and that he
can do it. And, we don't want anv
dead ores in Washington, sitting as
the alleged representatives of West
Virginians. We've had too much cali
umny heaped on cur heads now; what
we need IS q business man to take
charge Of things and see that we get a

These expressions are typical Of the
words Of hundreds Of Cabel County
voters, and aso identical to the let
tiers that comes in from other parts
Of the state. James A, Hughes, form
er congressman and now managing
Mr.. Edwards campaign summed UP
the outlook as follows yesterday:
"When you hear expressions like
these from all classes Of people, and
know that they're honest thoughts
and not said for political purposes
you're bound to know that there's a
real reason for them. And I've kept
in close touch with develofments.
There's not the slightest question in
my mind about this camfaign Mr..

PERTINENT FACT CONCERNING
GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE

The United States Veterans Bur-
eau is conducting, during June and
July of this year, campaign for the
statement of Government Life
Insurance by the ex-service men, who
physical condition will enable them
to reinstate. This is an opportunity
which should not be overlooked for
this Insurance is the cheapest and
most reliable on earth, and is not
open to the public at large.
There is a dividend payment year
ly to the holders Of converted Insur-
ance policies, which in the past two
years, has been a very pleasing fea-
tureto those far-seeming men who
converted their Insurance immed-
lately after rehabilitation. The bene-
fits now being paid to the benefici-
aries of those men who made the SUI
preme sacrifice while in the Military
Service, are being taken care Of by
special Congressional appropriation
and does not, in any way, detract
from the dividends which accrue to
the holders Of these converted polio
les. The majority Of men, while in
the service, carried policies for the
maximum amount Of Insurance, that
is $4,000 but you can now convert
this Insurance in as small amount as
$1,000, which also gives the privi-
lege Of increasing this amont at a
later date if so desired.
To reinstate Insurance, provided
you are in good heal, it is necessary
to submit report of your physical
examination by competent physi-
clan. You can obtain this examin-
alton, free of charge, by applying to
any A. A. Surgeon Of the United
States Veterans Bureau. Two mon
tbs premium in the form of check,
made payable to the Treasury of the
United States, should accompany
your application.
Complete information can be OBJ
tanned by applying to your Post Com
mander, American Legion or Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars, or else the Sec
rotary of your Local Chapter Of the
Red Cross. The Sub-District Of
flee of the u. s. Veterans Bureau
located at 451 West Street, Clarks-
burg, West Virginia, which serves
the entire central section of West
Virginia will be very glad to send
you full directions in answer to an
inquiry.
The Progressive recommends that all
ex-service men who are eligible take
advantage of this opportunity.
