On the occasion of his inaugurn- tion as President of the Republic of China" on Thursday, President Sun issued two manifestoes, One, to the Foregu Powers, handed to the Consuls with request for transmis, sion through the Ministers at Pek-i ing, trad as follows:
"During the last four years the patriots of China have been waging a war against the militarisis and traitors of the country for the cause of constitutional government and for national existence itself IL leas been no war between the North and South of Chian, but a struggle be- tween militarism and democracy, between trenson and patriolisht. That the people in the North are: sympathetic to the purposes and. Eins of the South has been demon

A New Discovery
in Cigarette Blending
The big thing about Chesterfields is their unique blend. The Chesterfield blend is an en- tirely new combination of tobaccos. It is a most important development in cigarette making.
As a result. Chesterfields give a new kind of cigarette enjoyment-just like a "bite".. before bedtime when you're hungry-they SATISFY!
It took the finest selections of TURKISH and AMERICAN tobaccos and no end of skill and patient experiment to get this blend · right.
Was it worth it? Just smoke a Chester- field fresh from the moisture-proof package. You'll say it was worth it, all right!
