F. Knotis. chairman of | the partv's Sinte commitize. Since Florida is on2 of the fsur Scuth- ern States which gave President Hoover a majority last Novemb:cr, some party | sbnt the of strengihening the party machinery all elong the line and consolidating the | g2ins made n the last ele-tion. Postmas'er Ceneral Brown, why directing the activities of the adminis- tration committes dealing with pe- | tronage matters here, is hopeful that the national and State party organiza- | tions will be abie to get together and work out thelr problems in harmony. | He has conferred with both sides, but | he and other members of his committe | assert that there is no foundation for a report that the national party organiza- tion in Florida would be recognized cn postmaster appointments and the State | organizations on other matters. i Fhere als) have been reports that this was the basis uon which two separate | committees set up in Georgia by Horace A. Mann on the one side and the Post- master General on the other would work out their differences, but so far con- firmation is lacking. The Georgia troversy recently was laid before Pre: dent Heover. The difficulty in Florida arose out of the selection by Committeeman Skipper of a patronage committee for that State from which Knot's, W. J. Howie, Re- publican candidate for governor last November. and J. Leonard Replogle «f New York and Paim Beach were omitted. The administration committee de- clined to approve the Skipper set-up, holding that it was not represent; of the par'y leadership in the State. Knotts, Howle and Replogle came to Washington to confer with Brown and his associates, and Skipper was asked to join in the conferences here. Members of the committee say the national com- mitteeman did not do this. U. S. JOB FOR LABORER.

To say that I am pleased with | the results obtained through the use |of MILLER'S HERB EXTRACT would be a mild way to express my, feeling toward this medicine, as it hll E‘h’tn me more relief than I oped for. Mr. Wm. H. Whiting. The above.is taken from a state- ment received a few days ago from Mr. Wm. H. Whiting, 906 7th St. S.W. | Mr. Whiting has resided in Wash- ington all his life and is well known here. Continuing, he said: For two years I suffered with my stomach and there were times when the pains almost_got the best of me. Every- thing I ate caused gas to form in my stomach. It would swell and bloat so I could not stand any tight clothes and would often walk around to remove that tight, pressing feeling. I was continually belching up sour bile, and the gas seemed ‘o be rolling arpund like water in the stomach. Then, too, I was always badly con- stipated, aiways taking pills or other strong laxatives, which gave me no relief to speak of. I read where so many people here at home were being benefited by this HERB EX- TRACT that I began-using it also, and in a short time, as I said before, 1 found it to be a wonderful medi- cine. It really gives relief. I feel better now than I have for years, and my stomach is in fine shape now; no more gas or indigestion: bowels more regular, and I want to join the others here in saying that MILLER'S HERB EXTRACT IS THE IDEAL REMEDY FOR THE ABOVE TROUBLES AND IS WORTHY OF THE HIGHEST PRAISE. Such statements as this one are received here almost daily and over a million bottles of this great medicine are | sold annually. You don’t need any | plils with this medicine; it is a real medicine within itself and guaran- | teed to give results. A medicine you | can take three or four bottles with- | out seeing_any results is not much | medicine.
