Prickly Heat
Some day you will ask your
self Why did I refuse to use
Tyree's Antiseptic Powder for
these tormenting cases of Poison
Oak. Prickly Heat and Mosqui
to Bites? The person who does
not use Tyree's Antiseptic Pow
der freely in these cases falls
in two ways, neglect and fore
sight. For the effect of Tyree's
Antiseptic Powder in these cases
is almost marvelous. One or
two tablespoons full dissolved
In a basin of water invariably
relieves you while you are ap
plying It. When used in the
same dilutions its application is
very pleasant and noncauteriz
ing. For thirty years Tyree's An
tiseptic Powder has been the
accepted standard for personal
hygiene. In small, medium and
large sires for sale by all drug
and department stores.

"Step lively, please, if you have any
desire of belonging to the City Club!"
This gentle hint was given to the
citizens of Washington today by of- i
fleers of the recently organized club.
They announced that the membership
of the club would be positively limit
ed to 1.500, and they hinted that some
of the citizens who are so eager to ,
join will find themselves barred from
membership unless they act promptly.
It is expected that the 1.000-mark
in enrollment will be reached today,
and then only 500 additional mem
bers will be admitted. At the pres-
ent rate of progress, this number will
be obtained about July 1. The lim
ited membership provision is expected
to cause a deluge of applications
within the next two weeks.
Rapid Enrollment.
"The enrollment is progressing so '
rapidly, and so much better than ever 1
was anticipated, mat it jooks as
though there will soon be a waiting
line of persons eager to get in," said
J A. Whitfield, president of the club,
today. "Only about 500 more persons
will be admitted, and unless those
persons who are anxious to join act
promptly, they probably will find
themselves barred.
"The democratic character of the
club is drawing men from all walks
of life lawyers, doctors, dentists,
pharmacists, newspapermen, business
men, professors, artists, clergymen,
and others. And it is gratifying to
notice the large enrollment of Gov
ernment officials. All of these men,
for the first time In the history of
Washington, will find through the
City Club a common meeting ground."
The semi-weekly luncheon of the
twenty-three membership teams will
be held at 12:30 o'clock this afternoon
at the Commercial Club. Farragut
square. Charles W. Semmes, chair
man of the membership committee,
will bo host. Brief speeches will be
delivered by several members of the
committee. Reports of the various
teams will be made, and the total
number of new applications will be
announced by Mr. Whitfield.
Committee On Site.
The reports are expected to reveal
that the 1,000 mark In enrollment
has been reached. If this is the case,
Mr. Whitefield will be prepared to
announce the personnel of the com
mittee on site and building, which
will commence its work at once.
The $1,000,000 club house planned
for the downtown section will be
thrown open certain days of the
week to the children of members, as !
well as to wives, according to an
nouncement of leaders in the club.
The families of the members will be
given the full privileges of the swim
ming pool and the gymnasium, as well I
as of the numerous other features. I
This unique provision is expected to
make the City Club a sort of big
community home for the Capital.
SAYS TREATY GIVES
T
WORLD
BRITAIN
Judging from the countless prepa
rations and treatments which are
continually being advertised for the
purpose or making thin people fleshy,
developing arms, neck and bust, and
replacing- ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines of health and
beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
in modern foods. Physicians claim
there is nothing that will supply this
deficiency so well as the organic phos
phate known among druggists as
pltro-phosphate, which is inexpensive
and Is sold by People's Drug Stores
Is Washington and most all drug
elxts under a guarantee of satisfac
tion or money back. By feeding the
nerves directly and by supplying the
body cells with the necessary phos
phoric food elements, bitro-pbosphate
should produce a welcome transfor
mation in the appearance; the in
crease in weight frequently being as
tonishing. Increase in weight also carries with
It a general improvement in the
health. Nervousness. sleeplcsness
and lack of energy, which nearly al
ways accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear, dull eyes
ought to brighten, and pale cheeks
glow with the bloom of perfect
health.
CAUTION: Although bitro-phos-phate
is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness, umiJicsaness anu gen
eral weakness, it should not. owing
to tts tendency to increase weight, be
used by anyone who does not desire
Xo put on flesh.
Patrick H. OTJomiell, Georgetown
University graduate' and lawyer of
Chicago, 111., stirred hundreds of Irish
men to cheering in an address before
the Friends of Irish Freedom, in Gon
zaga Hal! last night, in which he cited
the peace conference as surrendering
the freedom of the seas to England.
He flayed President Wilson in giving
Great Britain supremacy on the
water, and said that, though over
t'er it has been given up, the 20,
000,000 of Irish men and women in
America would not yield it here.
"The present draft of the League
of Nations is a British scheme to con
tinue her absolute control of the
seas," said Mr. O'Donnell in his speech,
"The Freedom of the Seas." He will
make a hundred like speeches
throughout the country, and is confi
dent that opinion will overrule the
President's tendering to Britain the
title. "Mistress of the Seas."
"British supremacy began with the
piracy of Hawkins, Drake, and Ra
leigh," he said. "Since their time
England has improved upon her con
trol at every opportunity, driving all
other commerce from the seas."
Congressman Mead of New York
spoke of the ways that Ireland has
helped in every campaign for liberty
in and out of America. He said that
self-determination for Ireland will be
a reality soon, as the purpose of'
America's entrance into the war
would not be fulfilled until the
Emerald Isle is free and the republic
recognized by the world.
"The Orange, the White, and the
Green," a new song of new Ireland,
was sung by its composer, Thomas
O'Dowd, of New York city. Irish airs
were also sung by Miss Mary Patrice
Moran. Rossa F. Downing presided.

Editorial
t
This editorial is directed
especially to those young
men and women just
graduating from High
School who expect to be
come salespeople of one
kind or another.
It is a tip from one of
the best salesmen of our
acquaintance. Here it is
NEVER ASK A MAN TO
BUY TWO THINGS FROM
YOU AT THE SAME TIME.
"Why," he continued,
"If I were selling you a.
dollar watch I wouldn't
ask you for a match for
fear of getting oi m ..
diverted from the thing I
wanted you to do."
He's right.
Keep a prospect thinking
about your -proposition
long enough ana clear
enough and he'll soon get
to thinking of it as a good
thing. When he thinks It's
good It won't take long to
sell him.
