Making his first proni-incemeti'. on many public questions, the pres-1 iJent presicited a series of succint ; recommendations without attempt at argument. He used exactly nine words in disposing of the bonus question. After urging adequate | care for disabled tormer service ( men and generosity in providing j | such care, he said: ‘1 do not iavoi j ; the granting of a bonus. The treatment of the world court ■ and the -Mellon tax plan was almost I 'as brief. In approaching the I court probltr.i* he. noted that Ame"- icici foreign policy always had been guided by the principles of avoid i ance of permanent political alli ances sacrificing independence and of peaeelul settlement ot iu- * ternaticriul controversies He call ed attention that the United ■ States acting on the'w principles ' had foi nearly twenty-five year: been a member of The Hague tri-1 ' bunal and added that the pro- , ; posed world court was ”a new and | somewhat different plan.’’ "This is not a partisan question,’ he added. "It should not issume an artificial importance. As ! wish co see a court established, am! as the proposal presents the only practical plan cn which many nations nave ever agreed, though it may not meet eveiy desire, I therefore com mend it to the fax? i dle consider ation of the Senate with the pro posed reservations clearly indicat ing our refusal to adhere to the League of Nations.’’ The endorse.nent of the Mellen plan was presented in the course oi discussion of the physical condi tion oi the nation, during which the President i-alied attrition that through the budget system ami eco nomy in expenditure s, the neces sities of the government, exclu sive of the Fostoffn e Department had been brought down to $.3,000,- 000,00. It is possible, in ti ‘.sequence, to make a large reduction in the t..xes of the people, "‘he continued.” A proposed plan has been presented in detail in a statement by the Secretary of the Treasury which has my unqualified approval.—A very great < nil be ruiderel through imm- liate enactment of legislation relieving the people of some of the burden of taxation. Os all services which the Congress can render to the country, I have no hestitation declaring this one to be paramount,” The president prefaced his mes sage witii a tribute to President Harding, declaring “the world knew his kindness ji.pd his human ity, his greatness mid his character, ’ and that "he has made justice more I certain anil peace more secure. “He is gone,” Mr. Coolidge said, j ! "we remain. ’ It is our duty under I 1 the inspiration of his example to I take up the burdens which lie was I permitted to lay down, ahd to de velop and support the wise prici- I ciples of government which he rt‘p i esented.” From this basis the President ; th. ,i launched upon his reeomnic-n dr.uons which, in addition to those ’ i lative to taxaticji, world court, | ; transportation and soldier legisla tion included :• Governqrgjpt operation of tne | war-built merchant maiine until shipping cceiditions are such as to, allow it to be disposed ol ad vantageously.

All drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod uct, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popu lar because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush’with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with W yeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applica tions, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.
