to return to Washington later.
'There is no opposition in the
ranks of organised baseball to tht!
plan to tax it," Johnson said. "But
we naturally are concerned that the
levy imposed be fair and equitable.
I cannot conceive that Congress will
proceed with the consideration of
that part of the revenue bill which
will affect baseball without hearing
some one familiar with the sport
and learning just what conditions
are. I have been given no assurance
that the Senate Finance Committee
or any subcommittee of either
branch of Congress will hear rep
resentatives of baseball when con
sideration of the tax is taken up,
but needless to say X would be glad
to come to Washington at any time
to furnish any information that
might be desired of me."

Hobnob at Big Dinner
New York, May 11. —As distin
guished a gathering as ever sat at
one table in this city gathered at
the home of Henry C. Frick. The
affair was a private dinner at which

On Mr. Frick's right sat Marshal
Joffre and next to him Colonel
Roosevelt. These two talked together
almost incessantly for two hours. The
Colonel was very emphatic at times.
He spoke always in French, except
when, occassionully, he used the ex
pression "bully". Those near him
frequently heard him use the word
"division."
It was apparent that the great
French soldier and the former pres
ident were gettln galong togther fine
ly. Once or twice the marshal pat
ted Colonel Roosevelt on the should
er In approval of what the Colonel
had been saying. They were evi
dently in thorough accord.

which lias Just arrived in this coun

situation generally.
"We come," he said, "to show the ,
great satisfaction we had in seeing
the United Suites approve the pur
pose of our war which is the cause

Italian government and people of
the government to express the senti

people of the greatest frlndship and
admiration for the American na
tion.
"We desire to proceed in absolute
accord with the United States as we
have already with France and Eng
land. We do not need men at the
front, because we have accomplished
the greatest work any nation could
accomplish in providing men for the
war. We, of course, shauld be glad
to arrange a war loan in America
with which to pay for what we have
purchased here without disturbing
exchange rates.
"What we want above everything
else Is ships to carry provisions and
war materials and we are sure the
great Industrial power of this coun
try will be amply sufficient for our
wahts."

Where Can I Find Relief From
Itching, Terrifying Eczema?
This Question Is Ever on the
Lips of the Afflicted.
Eczema, Tetter, Erysipelas, and
other terrifying conditions of the
skin, are deep-seated blood diaeases,
and applications of salves, lotions and
washes can only afford temporary re
lief, without reaching ma real seat
of the trouble. But Just because local
treatment has done you no good,
there is no reason to despair. You
simply have not sought the proper
treatment, that is within your reach.
You have the experience of others
who have suffered a you have to
guide you to a prompt riddance of
blood and skin diseases. No matter
how terrifying the Irritation, no
Amazing Power of Bon-Opto
To Make Weak Eyes Strong
Doctor Says It Strengthens
Eyesight SO per cent. in One
Week 1 s Time in Many Instances
A l-'rre Prescription You Can Have
I'llled find I'se at Home
Victims of eye strain and other eye
weaknesses and those who wear
glasses, will be glad to know that
according to Dr. l.ewis there is real
hope and help for them. Many whose
eyes were failing say they have had
their eyes restored by this remark
able prescription and many who once
wore glasses say they have thrown
them away. One man says, after
using it: "1 was almost blind. Could
not see to read at all. Now 1 can
Vead everything without my glasses,
and my eyes do not hurt any more.
At night they would pain dreadfully.
Now they feel line all the time. It
was like a miracle to me." A lady
who used it says: "The atmosphere
seemed hazy with or without glasses,
but after using this prescription for
fifteen days everything seems clear.
I can read even tine print without
glasses." Another who used it says:
"I was bothered with eye strain caus
ed by overworked, tired eyes, which
induced fierce headaches. I have
worn glasses for several years, both
for distance and work, and without
them 1 could not read my own name
on an envelope or the typewriting
on the machine before me. I can do
both now and have discarded my long
distance glasses altogether. I can
count the fluttering leaves on the
trees across the street now, which
for several years have looked like a
dim green blur to me. X cannot ex
press my joy at what it has done
for me."
It is believed that thousands who
wear glasses can now discard them
in a reasonable time and multitudes
more will be able to strengthen their
eyes so as to be spared the trouble
and expense of ever getting glasses.
