"All along the route of the Chicago.

formidable p r o b

£S way across the
continent to the Dayton air races we
received stacks of it on the train at
nearly every station. But, of course,
the deluge came after our return to
our world flight headquarters at the
I.afayette hotel, In Washington, where
we settled down to work on this nar

many as 1,0110 letters would arrive on

nothing of answering it, because that
would have taken years."
One More Trip Ordered.
When the world fliers finally ar
rived at Dayton they were met at
Hie train by Wilbur Wright, one of
the inventors of the airplane, and by
Admiral Moffet, head of the navy air
service; the mayor; Major Curry, com
manding officer at McCook field, and
others. Following the aeronautical
program, In which they took part.
General Patrick ordered them to re
turn to Seattle, and fly their world
cruisers back across the American
continent for their final disposal.
This meant that these planes In
which the fliers had already flown
some 27,500 miles in circumnavigating
ihe world by air, these sturdy
Douglas cruisers that had already
been in the air for Some 351 hours
and 11 minutes while girdling the
globe, which Is considered much long
er than the lifetime of an airplane,
must now he flown fop another 4,000
miles and must carry the world filers
for another 40 hours In tfce air.
Perhaps to properly appraise the
night and Its significance it would bs
better In conclusion to consider the
opinions of men outside the air serv
ice and the army who would natural
ly be somewhat biased. It might even
be well to consider the opinions of
men outside of the present administra

A Famous Man
The originator of Dr. Pierre*
Golden Medical Discovery for the
blood, ns well as Hie "Favorite Pi*
scriptlon" for women, was l)r. Ray
Y Pierce, a practising physician In
Western Pennsylvania right after the
< Ivll War. He early moved to Buf
falo, N. V., and established The In
valids' Hotel, then he put up Ids home
remedies In the World's Dispensary,
where they were carefully prepared
from roolg, barks and herbs, and
placed them with druggists all over
the I'lilted States.
For over half a century, Dr.
Pierce's Discovery, for the blood, has
been sold In larger quantities by
druggists all over the United States
than any other medicine. Dr. Pierce's
Gulden Medical Discovery Is a tonic
In Its effect on the stomach and dt
gestlve apparatus, nil alterative In
Its action on the blood, liver and skin.
Jt Increases the appetite, stimulates
the digestion, enriches the blood,
JUHea.ru the skin of eruption* and Idem

coming; Him* world girdlers and to
help to show them how their flight
hss touched the Imagination and
kindled tha enthusiasm of their
countrymen. The success of the
flight has recalled the thrill that came
to me when as a boy l read Jules
Verne's ‘Around the World In Highly
Days.’ That seemed wonderful, lint
In comparison with the flight of these
heroic fliers who made it In less than
15 days of actual flying time, it now
seems like ox cart transportation.
' If there shall be another war,
which God forbid, it will not begin
with matching cohorts in Belgium
or ill inch guns belching destruction
at. Jutland, but it will come in the
shape of powerful and death-dealing
explosive bombs dropped from all"
planes. They will destroy a city in
a night. France lias now obtained
tlie supremacy of the air as Britain
has been given the supremacy of the
sea. This country should atop piddling
and make its air service worthy of
the country that gave the conquest
of lhe air to the world the day the
Wrights made their first successful
flight at Kitty Hawk, N. O.
"Do you ask 'what Is the practical
value of the flight around the worhff'
Years and years ago, when I was
much younger, I had the pleasure of
an interview' with General Ureely,
whose expedition to the frozen north
gave him just distinction and honor,
t said to him, ‘After all, General
Ureely, what was the practical value
of your expedition? The minute the
words were out op my mouth, I would
have given anything lo have recalled
them, for they could be construed
ns minimizing the value of his epo
chal cruise.
“With admirable courtesy, heal once
put me at my ease by sa.vinp: "That
is the exact question a member of the
British parliament asked me when X
visited London.’ I will now venture
to quote his illuminating answer
which impressed me then by its wis
dom, and nty appreciation of it has
been heightened with the passing
yea rs.
“Continuing, General Greely said: 'I
told the member of parliament that
whenever the time should come when
men of our race would not. be ready
to make new discoveries, to discover
new countries, to lead in exploration
—if that day should ever come our
rare would retrograde.
"As 1 do honor to these world
glrdiet's and congratulate them, 1 feel
proud as an American that these
youths have given fresh proof that
'Onward' Is the motto of forward
looking pioneer Americans of our
day."
t\ G. Gray, editor of "The Aero
plane," and one of Britain's foremost
aernoautlcai authorities, in writing of
ih‘- flight said:
"It was an American. Orville
Wright, who was the first man to fly
an aeroplane under propet control.
It was an American crew under Com
mander Read in a l.'urtlss built flying
boat who first cross the Atlantic by
air. And it is in accord with piSSie
dent that, an American team shduld
be the first lo circle the globe by air
"What could be more natural? Such
feats are achieved by grit, energy,
pertinacity, determination, endurance
and faith. Such human qualities, and
especially faith In one's future, nro
precisely those which Inspired the an
cestors of These men to pull them
selves up by the roots and press
ever westward lo the promised land.
“Always the wave of conquest has
flowed westward, and perhaps there
Is significance In the fact that tlds
flight should encircle the earth in the
direction in which all our ancestors
have traveled. Our race may conquer
from west lo east and hold a coun
try so conquered, hut It cannot settle
there. When we move our home it is
from east to west, always with our
faces to the light at the end of the
day.
"Thus m> see Hist these si* men
of the American nation are but fol
lowing the destinies of their race by
completing In full circle the pilgrim
age begun h.v their ancestors some
few thousands of years ago.''
And in ttie words of Rear Admiral
Ashley Robinson, who congratulated
the fliers on behalf of the navy when
they landed at San Diego:
"Other, men will fly around the
earth, but never again will anybody
fly around it for the first time.”
THE END.
Wynol—A large number of Odd Eel
lows in this locality gathered here
to attend the annual home-coming
of the Wynot lodge. A banquet and
school of instruction were held.

Why Women
Shine
Bj Edna Wallace Hopper,
Perhaps a million women have
asked me how I gained my famous
beauty. And how 1 have kept It to
my grand old age.
The reasons go deep. For <0 years
I have searched the world for the best
beauty helps In existence. I have
spent fortunes to find them. Few
other women have the muney, the
time, the incentive to discover what
I got.
One of the greatest helps was given
me by .Lurie l.antelme, a famous
Parisian beauty. She never used
soap on her face. She had a liquid
cleanser, free from animal or vegeta
bin oil, which pentrated the skin to
the depths.
It. cannot assimilate In any way
with the skin, so every drop used
must depart. And all that mars the
skin goes with It.
The greatest beauty experts, the
world over, now employ this liquid
cleanser. Hut the price of $.1 or lf>
bars It to the majority. So the aver
age woman knows little or nothing
about li.
r want all to know what II doe*.
No beauty Is possible without perfect
cleanliness, and (Ida is tlie way to
that. I have arranged so that nil
druggists can now supply you ibis
liquid cleanser. I call II Kdna Vtal
lace Hopper's Facial Youth. It will
be h revelation to you.
My laboratory will furnish a sam
ple free to any girl or woman wlm
will try ll. Simply mail the coupon,
t hope that no woman who wants to
look her best will omit this opportun
Ity. i'lip coupon now .
