Snow an Effective Substitute for Ice In some foreign countries, where natural difficulties have stimulated human inventiveness, It is quite usual for snow to be collected during the coldest part of the winter and buried well-pressed down In specially dug pits. So intensely cold do these blocks of compressed snow become un der this treatment that after a few hours they freeze into solid lumps of ice, which keep almost indefinitely ailT! can be dug up when required, says the Detroit News. Especially in very hot countries these pits are frequently situated on mountains. Macedonia is one of the countries which adopted this method of Insuring an adequate supply of ice during the summer. It Is a remark able fact that an ice supply laid down in this way at the beginning of the winter will lust right up to the end of a summer consisting of many months of almost unbearable heat.

YANKS TO FORCE SHOWDOWN ON DRUG QUESTION Other Nations Expected to Fall in Line—First Test Due Tuesday . BY WINDER R. HARRIS. Universal Service Correspondent. Geneva, Nov. 23.—The American delegation to the drug congress, in a series of conferences, completed plans to press the American pro gram to reduce the growth, manu facture and traffic In narcotics to medical and scientific requirements, to a record vote in spite of all the technicalities that may be raised. It is believed that the sentiment of a majority of the 39 nations repre sented at the conference is favorable to such a program. The first test is likely to come Tuesday. Bishop Brent in a sermon at the American church Sunday referred to the "technicalities that are being passed upon us,” but he added that "they cannot 'kill an ideal by evasion." “They cannot do that any more than they can kill a sunbeam with a hammer,” he declared. Fight Almost Certain It is reported that there will be an effort made Monday to get the first conference, on smoking opium, to sign the convention containing the minor provisions as agreed upon, even if Japan still refuses. If this ie done it is expected they will fill in the article on exports and imports, which is now blank and marked “not yet settled.” In addition to th» points agreed upon, it is learned that the proposed articles for a draft of the convention to be signed, contain a protocol with a resolution which is certain to arouse a fight. The resolution is interpreted in some quarters as designed to throw upon China the responsibility for the failure of definite accomplishments looking to the suppression of opium smoking. The resolution declares that in some countries the system of registration, licensing and rationing smoking addicts has been successful in diminishing the number—referring chiefly to Formosa. It then says that the conference has found in other countries a contraband trade equal ling and even surpassing the legiti mate trade, rendering the applica tion of this system useless and in some countries dangerous. Expect Objections Accordingly, the conference de clares, the possibility of adopting these measures or maintaining them in those territories where they are working successfully, depends prin cipally upon the extent of the con traband trade. It therefore leaves to the contracting powers which have not yet applied this system the duty of selecting the moment when cir cumstances will allow Its adoption and taking, in the meantime, the preparatory measures they deem ex pedient. Strong objection will he offered, it is understood, on the ground that the statement of fact is not proven. If the movement to sign the convention without Japan materializes and suc ceeds, it will only be a "gesture” to ward suppression and not a definite step, in the view of the Americans.

WHEN you are constipated, poisons form in the accumulated food waste and are carried to all parts of the body. Headaches follow. Biliousness, in somnia, lack of energy, all result from con stipation, which if unchecked will lead to serious results. Avoid Laxatives—Say Doctors A noted authority says that laxatives and cathartics do not overcome constipa tion, but by thair continued use tend only to aggravate the condition. Medical science has found in lubrica tion a means of overcoming constipation. The gentle lubricant, Nujol, penetrates and softens the hard food waste and thus hastens its passage through and out of the body. Thus, Nujol brings internal cleanliness. Nujol is used in leading hospitals and is prescribed by physicians throughout the world. Nujol is not a medicine or laxative, and cannot gripe. Like pure water, it is harmless. Take Nujol regularly and adopt this habit of internal cleanliness. For sale by all druggists. Nujol TRAM MARK For Internal Cleanliness
