RESOLUTIONS IN SUPPORT OF NEAR EAST A set of resolutions drawn up at the National Conference of the Daughters of the American Revolution in Washington, endorsing and pledging support of the work of the Near East has just been re- ceived by Mrs. Edward J. Graham, 328 ‘Washington street, a_member of Faith Trumbull chapter, D, A. R., of this city. In view of the frightful sufferings which Armenia has endured at the hands of the Turk, the delegates of the confer- ence were agreed -that it was their duty as inheritors of the ideals of their fore- fathers, to make it a first part of their programme for the coming year to aid in the rescue and salvation of these peo- ple. % The resolutions read as follows: ‘Whereas, in the “Near East” exists the most desperate situation In the world to- day, and ‘Whereas, Armenia, the oldest Chris- tian nation, and the smallest and weak- est, but bravest and most martyred of our allies, in the world war, faces ex- tinction at the hand of the atrocious tyrant Turk, and ‘Whereas, he has deported it as a na- tion, robbed it of its property and re- sources, barborously butchered a million of its innocents, and holds 250 thousand of its girls and women captives in the Harems, doomed to live in a slavery worse than death, and ‘Whereas, the remnant of this nation stands exhausted and crippled, because it has faith in our Supreme God, ana ‘Whereas, it looks to America as its only hope of earthly salvation, because it has trust in American idealism, and because the United States stands as the one unchallenged exponent of Altruism, of the- Spirit of “World Regeneration™ which has followed the war, and ‘Whereas, its children cry to us for bread, because some have tasted of our practical philanthropy, and Whereas, the Armenian nation only asks the hands of a “Good Samaritan” for aid until its wounds are healed. Therefore, be it resolved, that we, the can Revolution, inheritors of the colossal courage and faith which our forefath- ers displayed when they, out of weakness, founded our Great Republic, do (\his 20th day of April in the year of our Lord, 1920, in congress assembled, heartily endorse the work of the “National Near East Relief,” specially chartered by con- gress for rescue and reconstruction ac- tivities, and we approve of whatever ac- tion they (the United States congress) consider necessary to protect American Anstitutions, property and relief work- ers in the Near East, and we further rec- ommend to the chapters of the D. A. R. that they made a special feature of their work for the coming year. s, Charles W.) Frances T. Nash, ce regent, of New York. (Mrs. Frank D.) Annie C. Ellison, state regent, Massachusetts.

I would have mervous chills and fever following it. My temperature would drop from 102 degrees down to normal in five minutes and then go back up again. My face would burn like fire and then I would turn cold. I was always worried about something that never happened or never could happen; every day I had a feeling of fear or dread and I can tell you it is a terrible sensation, but now 1 will tell a brigther story. I have taken just three bottles of CINOT and am eh- tirely well and my nerves are as strong as steel. I sleep well, eat well a thank God, I am strong and robust.
