business in China. He retires as
assistant secretary of commerce to
take private post.
Back from China in 1927, with
half of his allotted span of years
still ahead of him and a sizable
fortune already in hand, he
wished to put in the rest of his
life being socially useful. He
was commissioner of corrections
of New York city until 1882,
given big hand for his effec-
tiveness on the job.
Just year ago, he became a sort
of haison officer between the de-
partment of commerce and the ma

urged friendly get-together in an

of our trouble is due to a lack of

HERE'S TRIPLE" RELIEF
FOR CONSTIPATION
And Attendant Ills

Many people demand more than
merely a "so-called" simple laxative.
They follow the rule of Cd stim-

bile, Co improvement of appetite,
which also aids in the creation Of
added energy, and 90 inducement of
mild, gentle bowel movements.
That's the "triple-action" of Sargon

not only act on temporary constipation
but also are effective in relieving
such attendant ills as headache, sour

JUST as radio gave a break
- to many old-time vaude-
vile actors, television is like
ly to offer new opportunities
to theatrical and motion pic
ture performers whose for
tunes have hit the skids of
recent years. A young radio
executive remarked gloomily
the other day that Radio City
seemed to be all full of the
atrical agents, all of a sud-
den, the lot of them very busy
with candidates for television acts.
Like the talkies and radio, this new
form of entertainment will probably
go through that horrible first stage
when anything goes. And the chill
dren of today will be the televiSion
stars of tomorrow.
Two of the big current pictures,
"Only Angels Have Wings" and
Union Pacific" are going to make
you feel right at home as they un-
fold on the screen. You know their
plots by heart. Yet the pictures are
so well done that the staleness of
the plots doesn't interfere with the
enjoyment of them.
