How to stop
BOZ. g!

There's only one way to stop boils.
Stop the cause of boils! That's COM
mon sense-isn't it? All right. Boils
thrive because the blood gets so weak
in healthy, red cells that it can't
throw off the impurities that get into
the body. There's not enough rich, red
blood to purify the system.
Now-S. S. S. builds back the blood
to fighting strength. S. s. S. builds
red-blood-cells - builds them by the
millions! Boils dry up!
S. S. S. is the thing. Impurities that
cause boils and other skin eruptions
can't stand up against the rich,
healthy, red blood that s. S. s. builds.
That's all there is to it.
Stop boils with S. s. s. It's the way.
Get it at any druggist. The larger
bottle is more economical.

A TONIC

Groves TasteIess chill Tonic restores
Energy and Vitality by Purifying and
Enriching the Blood. When you feel its
strengthening, invieorating effect, see how
it brings color to the cheeks and how
it improves the appetite, you will then
appreciate its true tonic value.
Groves Tasteless chill Tonic is simply
Iron and Quinine suspended in syrup. So
pleasant even children like it. The blood
needs QUININE to Purify it and IRON to
Enrich it. Destroys Malarial germs and

Unregulated canal competition has al
ready taken from the Middle West much
business, which can be regained by this terri
tory only if the railroads are allowed to
make rates to compete with the canal
The Central States and their railroads
have enjoyed a share in this Pacific Coast
business from the beginning Of the operation
of transcontinental lines and this tonnage
was large factor justifying their being built
Under the present law the Interstate Com
merce Commission is authorized to permit
the railroads to equalze canal rates, and ap-
plication for this is pending. Until 1918 the
railroads had this permission. Then, due to
the war, canal competition ceased and the
Commission withdrew the permission Now
the ships are back in greater numbers than
ever and have taken practically all competi-
tive traffic, while the railroads have lacked
the permission to equalize rates.
The Gooding bill, which has passed the
Senate and is being considered by the House
would withdraw from the Interstate Com
merce Commission authority to grant any
such permission 1t will not help intermoun-
tain states because steamship rates between
the Atlantic and Pacific, Coasts will continue
lower than those of the railroads; and it will
not add to the Coast competition Of inter
mountain distributors for the railroads TO
handle a part of the business.
This westbound business on which the
railroads desire TO compete comprises highly
manufactured articles moving in great vol
ume, made both in the Atlantic States and
in the Central and Middle Western States
