pain q t4fng of the past for thousands

new combination of certain oils
has been discovered, which produces a
clear amber liquid that affords tmme-

disappears within few seconds, SO
that it must be entirely absorbed by
the body tissue. Even in the most adj

this remarkable oil has shown aston

supple and the annoying twinges cease.
So astonishing have been the results
from the use of this oil that the Amer

druggists to dispense it to rheumatic
sufferers in this city with a positive
written guarantee, signed by them
selves to return the full purchase price

VICES
SHOCK j. s.
WOMAN
Licensed immortality Amazes
Judge Jean H. Norris,
Touring Far East.
International News Service.

TOKYO, May LIBERALIZATION OF
the acceptance of licensed vice by
Oriental peoples is one of the most
shocking experiences of the world
tourist, in the opinion of Judge Jean
H. Norris, New York city's woman
judge, now in Tokyo on the last lap
of tour around the world.
Judge Norris is passenger on
the Cunard Line steamer Samaria
which has carried its passengers
from New York city through the
Mediterranean and on past Suez
into the Far East. She has spent
much of her time In the various
countries visited in studying social
conditions, and as result says
that she is returning to New York
more anxious than ever to promote
the welfare of women throughout
the world.
AROUSE Conscience
THE best way to eliminate this
immoral institution said Judge
Norris when seen in Yokohama re.
Gently, lis to arouse the public con-
science through the moral educa-
alton of both men and women.
While far from blameless in regard
to vice, the United States, in my
opinion, has the highest moral
standard in the world in this re-
spect, while the State of New York
has a better record than any State
in the Union. No efforts will be
spared until this social evil has
been completely eradicated from
the United States
A main reason for Judge Norris
attention to the moral conditions
in the various cities she visits is
the fact that just prior to her de-
parture she was commissioned by
the mayor of New York city to
make a thorough investigation of
all activities in various countries
toward uplifting the general moral
standard of men and women and
the general sentiment of the people
toward the matter. She expects to
report her decisions on the matter
to the municipal authorities of
New York just as soon as she re-
turns here.
Favors World Meet.
1t is time now. in the opinion of
Judge Norris, TO call an interna-
tional conference of women in ju-
dicial and legal life to study the
various problems dealing with wo-
men. The prominent American
woman jurist expressed the opin-
ion while In Tokyo that she was
more determined than ever to urge
sue ha conference as result of the
shocker institutions she has OBJ
served in the Far East.
In addition to her attention to
social conditionsH Judge Norris has
paid especial attention while in
Tokyo to the legal procedure here.
She expressed especial interest in
the adoption by Japan Of a new
jury system and has had numerous
conferences with the minister of
justice and with prominent Japan
csc judges.

NAVY WILL TRY
OUT BIC Gun
ON RIVER
16-Inch Weapons of BattIeship
Maryland to Be Tested on
25.OOO-Yard Range.
BY international News Service.


Sixteen-inch guns of the new
battleship Maryland, said to equal
the armament of any fighting craft
in the world, will be turned loose
over a 25,0OO-yard range June 4
marking the first time in United
States naval history that gunners
have used this calibre weapon III
distant target practice, the Navy
Department announced today.
The targets will be anchored of
Piney Point, Chesapeake bay, fol-
the trials are expected to prove OF
outstanding Importance in determin
ing the accuracy of heavy naval
rifles elevated to 80 degrees.
The Maryland is the only battle
ship in the American fleet whose
guns are elevated to 80 degrees
making possible at least equalling
the range of any ships Of, the
British fleet. However, before the
West Virginia and Colorado, with
30-degree guns, are expected to be
ready for service.
Naval officials are keeniy inter
ested in the outcome of the firing,
to elevate guns of all naval vessels
to 80 degrees, on information that
the British navy had taken similar
action. However, when that in
formation proved erroneous Presi-
dent Harding held up the elevation
project until Congress could have
an opportunity to consider the new
facts.
Naval officers declared that the
target practice will undoubtedly
prove the. practicability of accurate
firing with guns at $4,000 yards,
and excellent results probably will
have tendency to bring favorable
action from the Sixty-eighth Con-
gress.
The sixteenthinch guns of the
Maryland will hurl projectiles.
weighing over one ton, a MAXI
mum distance of 10000 yards; but
under the present plan target prac-
tice will not be held at the ex-
IRENE range. The target will be a
raft 100 feet long and 40 feet high.
With the guns elevated at 80
degrees the shells drop almost
vertically, reducing considerably
of high per cent of hits. The ad-
ditional elevation over other arma-
ment of the fleet, however, gives
the Maryland the advantage of
putting her guns in action about
5000 yards farther from an enemy
craft than can other vessels of the
fleet.
