Illinois and Washington streets, this city, hears of another remarkable accomplishments of this new compound. Day after day. year in and year out. a never-ending stream of happy, sincere indorsements, ■praising this new medicine for the relief from suffering—new health—it brought, keeps pouring into the Konjola files, until they are filled tlmost to overflowing. Different from all other medicines. Konjola Is designed to attack the very cause of the suffering at the source, and to act as an aide to Nature in removing that cause. It is not made to give mere temporary, fleeting relief. It contains no alcohol, no Hene deadening drug, no heart-de-pressing chemical.

Miss La Compte recently made the following statement to the Konjola Man: •m "I feel better than I have for a long time, and I owe all this new health to Koniola! For the past year my health had been failing. My condition in general was rundown. I was always tired and pervous. I lost my appetite, and did not enjoy the food I forced myself to eat. Naturally. I did not get my proper nourishment. I was subject to dizzy spells, and was bothered considerably by the appearance of black spots before my eyes. I just felt weak, tired and worn-out. I felt sure that if I did not soon find something to correct this condition, more serious complies tions were likely to follow. -I had read so many good reports about Konjolß. and so marry people trere recommending this new medicine that I decided to see if it might not help my condition. Well, it did! I cannot praise this new medicine too highly. By the time I had finished the second bottle I knew that I had found a real medicine. I have now used six bpttles, and feel better than for That tired, worn-out feeling is gone. My nerves are calm. and my appeite has improved wonderfully. I enjoy my meals, and benefit from what I eat. lam no longer bothered by dizzy spells, and the spots never appear before my eyes. I feel immeasurably better! I owe all this new health to Konjola. and I hope that my experience will help others to find their way to health!” Another glorious victory added to Eocjola’s already surpassing record! ifthere any wonder Konjola is galled the master medicine? * The Konjola Man is at Hook s Dependable Drug Store.

and twenty-five miles an hour. He has paid the price asked for a device which will give him an advantage of time over distance but he find'- his device of little use as long as the public highway is cluttered up with slow drivers who dam the free flow of traffic. It is no more reasonable to allow slow drivers to dam traffic on public highways than it would be to allow a real estate owner to dam up a stream which would flood his neighbors property. "Speed, at one time was deemed

And. the slow, driver causes accidents by forcing others to pass or try to pass him." In 1913 the maximum speed for automobiles was from 10 to 23 miles an hour. In 1925 speed limits were

raised to 35 miles an hour. In 1927 the rate of speed on the open road was raised at 40 miles an hour and in 1929 speed limits were raised to 20 miles in the business sections of towns; to 20 miles an hour in the residence districts and no speed limits are placed on automobile drivers on the open road. During a period of sixteen years speed limits have been doubled in towns and more than doubled on the open 1 road."

DEMOCRATS TO 0, l ROOSEVELT Decide Not to Fight Choice as Porto Rico Governor. WASHINGTON. June 28.—Democratic senators, including Thomas

Walsh of Montana, have decided not to fight confirmation of the prospective nomination of Theodore Roosevelt to be Governor of Porto Rico. At first there was an inclination among the Democrats to oppose the New Yorker because of his connection with the oil scandals under the Harding administration. Senator Royal S. Copeland of New York, who vigorously assailed Roosevelt's part in the Teapot Dome transactions when the latter ran for Gov-

ernor in 1924. had planned to renew his attack. An informal conference among opposition leaders resulted in the decision to make no display. Besides fearing such action might have a bad effect on the public. Walsh is said to have dismissed the subject with the remark that "Roosevelt was jus* a messenger boy. anyway.” Some surprise has been occasioned by the failure of President Hoover

to send Roosevelt's name to the .senate during the special session. The appointment has been formal!; announced at the White Hou.-c. but no nomination has been forthcoming. However. Roosevelt is not expected to assume his new dtftics until fall and it is expected a recess nomination will bring fewer protests from some of the pregres sivc senators.
