feeling sick and feeling fine!
Instead of driving your body and
irritating it with harsh cathartics,
laxatives, and drugs, use Nujol and
give nature a chance. See how the
sunshine floods into your life when
you are really well. Get a bottle of
Nujol in its sealed package at any
drug store. 1t costs only few cents,
and it makes you feel like a million
dollars. Find out for yourself what
Nuiol will do for you this very
night. You can be at top-notch
efficiency and happy all the time.
Get a bottle today. Advertisements.

Then flying isn't quite so easy.
What is the matter with these
brave people when they are not up
to par? The natural poisons in their
bodies have not been swept away.
They are allowing their brains to be
clouded and dulled by poisons which
should not be permitted to remain
in the body.
This is the lesson we can learn
fSom airmen. 1t is the lesson that
points to Nujol-the simple, nat
ural, normal way-without the use
Of drugs or medicines to keep the
body internally clean of the poisons

show MERCHANT
SHIP S hRME D

LONDON, Jan. 27.-Reijiro Wa
katsuki, the chief delegate for Jap
anese imperialism, at the race-for-
armaments conference threw a
"bombshell" into the meeting of the
Five Powers when he brought up
the question of arming merchant
ships, as auXiliaries to the naval
fleets in time of war.
Wakatsuki proposed that the
question of clause "limiting any
nation to build merchant ships ca
pabA of mounting guns over six
inches be discussed. This is directed
against U. S. Imperialism particu-
larly.
All of the news which comes out
of the secret conferences is sifted
by special government-paid public
ity agents, in order to throw a
screen over the chickering's over in
creased armaments, which is the
main concern Of all the powers at
the London meet.
An announcement through the
paid propagandists who issue the
news from the conference says that
the meet has been concerned mainly
with Franco Italian armament ques-
tions.
