President Harding arrived here this
morning for q few days rest and
golf before moving on the Capital
the last of this week.
The Presidential party reached st.
Augustine on q special train shortly
before . o'clock. and had breakfast
on tho train. Then Mr.. Harding
went to the golf links 10 get In =

1t 10 expected that Mr.. Harding
win leave here Friday. in timo to

internationally in touch with outAide
affairs on his jaunt through the
South, and members Of his party are
Just as well Satisfied to have II So.
The President, II Ii said. will Ct oss

A public reception will be given
for the President and Mrs. Harding
in the Ponce de Leon Hotel tonight,
which will be attended by 2.0C0
people. The limit on the number OF

The President himself has de.
clined to express opinions on cur
rent issues on this trip. He in
formed friends that this was q
rest" trip.
Associates of the President, how.
ever, do not doubt that he will veto
the bonus bill II 1t Ii passed by the
House.
The impression prevails that
President Harding and Speaker Gil
lett, who 10 q member of his party,
have had some conversations about
the situation. and II Is believed
possible that the speaker may
throw a monkey wrench In the plan
of Chairman Fordney to obtain q
special rule In the House under
which the bonus bill may be rushed
to completion.

Painful Rheumatic

Completely Banishes All Rheumatic
Pains and Twinges.

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him help
less and unable to work.
He finally decided after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the &C
cumulated impurities, commonly
called uric acid deposits, were dis
solved In the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he con-
suited physicians. made experiments
and finally compounded a prescrip-
ton that quickly and completely
banished every sign and symptom
of rheumatism, from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took II with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the news
papers. Druggists have been author
