Heffelfinger, of 114 South Sixth Street, Reading, Who Is Now With Reading Hardware Tells What CINOT Did For Him IV All of Reading knows "Heffy," and "Heffy" knows all of Reading and here is the story of one of the best known men who were ever on the Reading police. force, Mr. Heffelfinger says: "I had gastritis and I could not eat a thing tout what it would distress me. I bloated terribly and was miserable. "I would get a dull pain right under my lower rib on the left side.

I had to be awfully particular what I would eat. "I had backache so badly that I felt as if I had been hit with a ball bat. IMany mornings I would be so stiff that I would have to get out of bed by degrees. "I was rheumatic and had pains all along my spine. I could hardly move around in damp weather.

I lost lots of sleep and was miserable. "I have taken but two bottles of Clnot and those two bottles made good. My stomach Is fine, I can eat hearty, and have no distress. "I go to bed In the evening and get up in the morning rested and hop right out of bed. '1 certainly endorse Cinot." Cinot Is introduced In Reading by a representative at P.

FACULTY SAYS SUCH A THING IMPOSSIBLE HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII miimiiiminmmiiititmiimiii Harding Declares For De velopment of Nation's Resources TELLS CONSERVATION AIM tv fi fV Our Against Strict Preservation. No Reclamation Plan Told (Continued from First Paire.) series of motion pictures of the Columbia basin.

After the address, the presidential party left here for Meacham, Oregon, to patlcipate in the "Old Oregon Trail" celebration there tomorrow. i The president spoke In part as follows: "It has been in my mind during these days of travel in the west, to express on some appropriate occasion a few views regarding those problems which summon to our minds under the heading of conservation, reclamation and development. Nowadays, I think there is disposition to change the order of terms and mention development lirst. Not that we are any less devoted to conservation, but there is increasing realization that in our national development we have reached the time when wise programs for development in all parts of our domain must be encouraged. Does Not Fear Loss "Traveling about this country, and somewhat also in other countries, I have been constantly impressed that wise development of natural resources does not often result in their disastrous diminution.

Rather, it seems as a rule to result in a growing, an expanding, an increasing supply and variety of the very riches upon which we make drafts. I do not fear that present development is liable to. impoverish us in the future. The precise contrary, according to every historical analogy, is what will take place. Why, you all remember that a quarter century ago so wise a man as James J.

Hill was warning us that within fifteen years this country would have to import wheat. Twice that period has passed, our population 'has grown enoi.niously, and yet today we are producing a greater surplus of wheat than any other country in the world. Our difficulty is not to find wheat for 'ourselves but to find other countries that will buy it from us. "In 1908 Mr. Bryan eloquently assured us that gold could no longer serve as the world's money standard because there couldn't possibly be enough of it produced.

Before the echoes of his oratory had died away, science had perfected new processes of gold extraction, and in a few years another group of earnest people were Just as solemnly warning us that we couldn't go on using gold as our nnney standard because it was getting too common. Gold Basis Need "Fortunately for us, we did not get unduly excited about their prediction and day we find about everybody agreed that to get back 'on the gold basis is one of the world's greatest needs. "So contemplating the certainty that another century will give us a population of probably 300,000,000, one Is forced to conclude that a wise development of resources is the only policy to which we dare commit ourselves. There was a time when the public domain was thought of as. a treasure house of potential wealth to be locked up against the day when we should need it.

It was assumed that by locking it up we should make It surely available whenever it was required. As a matter of fact, that would, prevent it from being ready when required.As a matter of fact, that would prevent it from being ready when needed. Development must be gradual, a business of the decades and the centuries. It should, indeed, be given wise direction and supervision. "The opportunities of the newer country should be so administered as to insure their equitable distribution In the future.

We have done with the era of thoughtless and reckless exploitation of our domain. There will not again come a time when imperial estates will be distributed with lavish hands to enterprising gentlemen whose only claim is that they would like to own them. Sees Opportunities "It is doubtful if there are in the world such a region of varied opportunities and universal wealth as this mountain empire of yours. Tour country presents its invitations and its opportunity to whomsoever is capable of a contribution to human well being, to science, to industry, to the masters of metallurgy, of the electrical arts, and of agriculture. Western people have had reasons to complain that there is not always a sympathetic or understanding attitude in some other parts of the country toward the irrigation developments that the west must have.

"I have seen the statement that if the projects under investigation by the reclamation service be finally approved and completed and are of cultivable land would be added, equal to one of our largest agricultural states. A proposal to create the equivalent of a new state is something to challenge the conquering spirit of America. We know that the task one day will be done. It is for us a question of method; of proceeding with such business judgment and on such sound principles that the future may look back and say that it was well done." HARDING RUNS TRAIN On board President's special train, rear St. Maries, Idaho, July 2.

President Harding, for half an hour or so today, came Into realization of his boyhood ambition to become a locomotive engineer. It was not one of the steam locomotives, spouting sinoke and cinders that he drove, but an electric engine on the system of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway. When the rpesidentlal train stopped early totlny at Falcon, Idaho, Mr. Harding walked to the head of the train to take a look at the engine, one of the largest electric locomotives ever built.

Engineer Arthur Blundell after shaking hands with the president, invited him up Into the cab, and soon the train moved off down the west slope of the Bitter Root Mountains with the hand of the chief executive on the controller.

By GEORGE BRITT NEA Service Writer July 2. r. Why do university courses in psychology slight the profoundest emotion of them all?
