BRYAN PRESSES FOR PEACE

There is vet one man IN our ma

cd to attentively by a vast num-
Der of the thinking people OF theI
country This is William J. Bry-
an In the interest of humanity
and the peace of the world, ne on
last Saturday in letter to Presl-
dent Harding urged that a repre-
sentative Of the United States pei
sent to the Genoa conference, not
necessarily to bind this country
to the conclusions of that confer
cnce but to advise with the ma
lions of Europe in an effort TO
bring about the rehabilitation OF
The world. He stated that 1t was

lamity that the United States did
not enter the league OF NATIONS
the responsibility for which ne
Says equally upon the Republic
cans and Democrats; pointing
out that the mistakes OF the past
should not prevent wiser action
in the present and future.
He quotes from the speech OF
Mr.. Lloyd George at Genoa, IN
which the British prime minister
deplored the absence of the Unit
cd States at the conference, and
adds: "sLloyd George is dealing
with a very trying situation and
needs the help OF the United
States. 1t would not hurt us to
have a representative there If ne
were empowered to advise only
and with the understanding that
our nation is not bound by
any conclusions reached, except
as our people, acting through
congress and the president, or at
referendum, many expressly
approve.
Failure of the United States to
enter the league of nations was a
national and international calam-
ity. the responsibility for which
was divided between the refusal
of the Republicans to ratify the
covenant without reservations
and the refusal of the Democrats
TO ratify the treaty with reserva-
tions. The covenant was so much
more important than the reserva-
tons that it was unspeakable fol
ly for either side to subordinate
the idea Of international coopera-
ton to the minor details about
which they differed 1t matters
little whether it is called a league
Of nations or an association Of ma
tions or anything else. Our ma

aiding to secure world peace.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am troubled with an oily skin. What should I do for it? MATTE.
 For oily skin banish all rich and greasy foods, for diet has a great in fiuence on the condition of the skin.
 Wiping off the face occasionally with diluted alcohol (25 per cent strength) is beneficial in the case of an oily skin.
 A few drops of ammonia or a pinch of borax in the water with which the face is washed is also helpful.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: have growth of hair on my upper lip. How can I get it removed safely and per manently?
 SMILING SUSIE
 Have the growth of hair removed by means of the electric needle if it is heavy. In case it is a. light growth. however. simply apply peroxide of hydrogen and bleach it.
 Dear Mrs Thompson: am a girl who wants to find something to get fat on I am very willing to try any thing. I have tried olive oil but it is of no use. Is there a tonic you could recommend?
 MOTHERS PET
 Drink a quart of milk a day. If you keep this up, you will certainly gain flesh. You must, however, eat three good Enee5s day along with it. Take plenty of eggs and use butter freely. Only a physician who under stands your case should recommend
