Many Know This DO You?

The following very interesting converse
ton between Mr.. White, banker, and Mr..
Walter Wellman, retired, two prominent
citizens of the town, was recently over
heard:
II never buy patent medicine" said Mr.:
White. when l feel the need of medical
assistance | call our physician. don't be-
neve in taking lot OF stuff that | know
nothing about. / know, however. that
great many do use it, and apparently with
good results, but l am for getting doctor
every time
your circumstances render this posi-
ble,' replied Mr. Wellman, but the major
ity of people must consider the expense.
My experience is that some patent medl-
cines frequently cure when the doctors
skill is baffied. Take for instance, an at
fiction; say like constipation and stomach
trouble. Did you ever hear of your family
physician curing a case like that! II con-
st1pated, he gives you a physlc; but
physic cannot cure constipation, and he will
tell you so. 1t is a temporary relief and
before long you need more phys1c or pills.
The doctor charges you 50 every time you
call on him and you have to pay 50c or 73c
to have his prescription filed. Pretty soon
you have the PILL or 'Physic habit and
your doctor has a steady customer. You
cannot read the doctors prescriptions. You
know no more about what he gives you
than you do about the ingredients of a pat
ent medicine. No reliable company will
put a lot of money into patent medl-
cine unless they are convinced that t
ly 1t is the prescription of some specialist
who has devoted his life to the study of
certain disease and has mastered it.
l mention constipation and stomach trou-
BILE because l suffered from that affection
for years. 1t is the beginning of nearly all
diseases Once it gets a grip on you, it is
serious, stubborn and hard to overcome.
never knew case that was cured by an
ordinary practicing physician, but | do
know of number of bad cases that were
permanently cured by remedy called
Mulls Grape Tonic. ] have used it in my
family with satisfactory results. 1t cured
me, and l know a great many more per
sons it has cured. 1t costs so cents for
small bottle or $500 for large bottle.
don't know exactly all that is in it, but I
do know it cures constipation and stomach
trouble and that is more than my family
doctor could do for me.
I was first attracted to the remedy by
the company's offer to give the first bottle
free to any one who would write to them
giving their druggists name l am thank
full for the benefit it has given and advise
every sufferer from constipation to write to
the Mulls Grape Tonic Co, 21 4th Ave-,
Rock Island, ILL.,, giving them their drug
gist's address, so that they can procure
bottle free of expense"

"Look Pleasant"

What would be the effect upon civ
ilization if everybody would keep
constantly in mind that suggestion OF
the photographer, Look pleasant
The most difficult part of the photog-
rapher's work is the effort to get the
subject before the camera to rid him
self of the cold, stiff, set expression
of his face and to replace it by a gen
ial, kindly look or a smile He is not
wiling to reproduce the sitter until
he succeeds, because he knows that
the change of expression will trans
form the photograph.
How the habit of looking pleasant
would revolutionize our natures, ana
civilization itself If we could only
get rid of that hard, eager, worried
look habitual to many Of us, not for
the few seconds we stand before the
camera, but TO all our lives, how
bright the world would grow!-O. S.

81 and Russia.

Charles r. FIlnt, after an interview
with the czar, says that the autocrat
of Russia is a man of extraordinary
quick perception and Of broad inteIli-
gence."
Yet this man of broad intelligence"
in recent manifesto to his army used
the words Il and Russia" putting
himself before his country and higher
than all of the combined 125,000,000
people who constitute the power Of
Russia. 1t is difficult to understand
how a man Of broad intelligence in
the light of the twentieth century
could be guilty of such monumental
egotism. We recently commented up
on the fact that King Edward in a
message to the president of France
used the words, my country and L."
1t is evident that Russia has a long
road to travel before she and her
monarch can reach the elevation of
constitutional England. Words count
for a good deal sometimes, and there
is at least two centuries between the
81 and Russia" of the Gar Nicholas
and ''My country and 1" of the King

81 suffered over two years with ir-
regular and painful periods. My health

II was very glad to try Peruna and
delighted to find that it was doing me
good. I continued to use it little over

"Whew! you must have a good

THAT suits me. '1'll make it a

The other tramp hesitated and
looked at his cards intently Finally
he said:

STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH
Or. Williams Pink Pills Really Cure
Indigestion Instead of Merely
Relieving Symptoms.

There are plenty of remedies by which
you can relieve for the time heartburn,
pain and gas on the stomach and can
smother nervous sensations and induce
artificial sleep. You can humor your
stomach by giving it predigested food.
But when you take your next meal all
your trouble begins afresh.
There is only one sensible thing to do.
Strengthen the stomach and do away
with the necessity for drugs and arti-
fetal foods. The best remedy ever found
for this purpose is the one that was used
by E. f. Strong, of Capleville, Shelby
county, Tenn.
'For years. he states, 81 suffered
different remedies and some of them
would relieve me for time, but the
trouble always came back. About six
months ago 1 had an unusually severe
attack, and while I tried everything
had ever heard of, found that none of
the ordinary remedies would reach the
difficulty this time.
: "One day I read in a Memphis paper
how DR.. Williams Pink Pills had cured
Michigan woman, a sufferer from chronic
dyspepsia of most stubborn type. 1
then tried the same remedy and it
proved just as successful i'll my case.
took only three boxes, and was cured. l
have not had the slightest symptoms Of
Indigestion since"
The tonic treatment has sound prin-
ciple as it's basis, and abundant successin
actual use. Multitudes of cases that had
defed all other remedies have been cured
by DIR. Williams Pink Pills. The pills
actually make new blood and strike at the
root Of all diseases caused by bad blood.
They contain no harmful stimulants or
opiates. Every dyspeptic should read,

CHARACTER IN BUSINESS.
The Penal. Code VS.. the Moral Law as
the Standard of Conduct.

New York Commercially was not
through any Encouragement OF
course, that the letter of President
Nicholas Murray Butler Of Columbia
University to President Paul Morton
of the Equitable declining to serve in
that company's directorate, was made
public and a matter Of record the very
same day that he took occasion to
point out to the student body the ter
rible lessons of the life-insurance
scandals. But the two incidents dove
tail into each other with peculiar fit
ness and significance.
President Butler expresses full ap-
the Equitable board and his desire to
help in the task of restoring the con-
fidence of tens of thousands of policy
holders" in the society's administra-
tiOn-but his university duties forbid.
In his advice and warning to the Col
umbia students, however, he has
sounded clear note that cannot fail
to be helpful in purifying the murky
moral atmosphere that the New York
business world had so long been
breathing without sensing it's poison.
His theme was the great force and
value of character and the always
pressing need of character-bnf4 ding.

ed, may be quite in conflict with his
reputation, which is the public esti-
mate Of him Of late we have been
watching regulations melt away like
snow before the SUM" And without
further detailing the shameful story
he summed it up thus:
"Put bluntly, the situation which
confronts Americans today is due to
lack Of moral principle. Both among
business men and at the bar are to be
found advisers, counted shrewd and
successful, who have substituted the
penal code for the moral law as the
standard of conduct. Right and wrong
have given way to the subtler distinc-
ton between legal, not illegal and lille

Is There a Criminal Class.

The first act to be emphasized as a
result of observation is the one that
is just now rapidly coming to be rec
ognized by society in general: namely,
that there is in reality no distinct
criminal class, but that criminals are
mixed in with others in every class.
That is, there is no particular body of
people that is differentiated from the
rest of the human family by reason of
certain psychological and physiologic-
al characteristics, marked by certain
hereditary traits, and possessed Of
special personalities, training, and en-
vironment, which can be gathered in
to a group by itself and correctly be
designated as criminal class. This
used, until within very recent years,
to be the popular notion, and was the
basis of the treatment of the crimina.
But modern social science, biology,
and psychology, as well also as prac-
tical experience with the inmates of
our penal institutions and the people
of the slums, are disproving this cd
theory, Notwithstanding Lombroso
and his schooi.-C. E. Ordway, in At

Mischievous Legislation Threatened

legislation would mean the abolition Of

their homes from a physician, to call
in a doctor for every minor ailment.
The legislation as proposed would
mean frequent long delays awaiting

Charles Z. F Campbell. director OF the Cam
bridge 57dass5 Experiment Station for the
blind was the speaker of the afternoon. and
r4ade moving appeal for the practical better
-reat Of the condition OF the blind here and for
the opening Up Of a market for the labor of the
sighuess man and woman.
The blind don't want your charity" he ex-
claimed. they 40 want your justice Give the
bind man fair trial Don't say. He's blind,
therefore il is impossible he should be able to
play the organ or use the typewriter. Why is it
iuposs. .bIe?
One year ago there were just four indus
tries blind man could follow. Since then, by
experimenting 7 have discovered four processes
in factories that he can manage and two more
trades. those Of artistic handweaving and map
making"
M Campbell spoke most Interestingly of the
experimental work carried on al the Cambridge
station and Of the school which his father, a
blind man, established for the blind at Nor
wood England Pictures thrown on the screen
Of Norwood and the school for the blind al
overbrook nea- Philadelphia were a revelation
10 The audience Of what the blind may accom-
pish and enjoy. Blind men riding bicycles.
marching. working freely with gymnastic ap-
paratus, playing leapfrog; blind girls playing
tag on an open lawn, making buttonholes and
Skating on roller skates; blind boys playing
chess ana running races on track, and all with
the greatest freedom, amid surroundings spa
cious and elegant-these were among the Won
defui sights the audience saw
A man IS better of in q reformatory than IN
many q the schools and homes for the blind"
SAID Mr. Campbell "A home for the blind
is an iniquity. Homes for the aged blind-yes.
but so long as there is an abebodied blind man
IN New York, he should work oh. let elevate
their souls cry the sentimenJalists. My friends,
vou can elevate the souls OF the blind all you
7-art TO- but you've got 70 put the bread and
butter in their mouths first"
Miss Holt also spoke, emphasizing the great
need Of cooperation between the blind worker
and the world. Il was Miss Holt and her sister,
Miss Edith Holt, who Instituted the bureau for
the distribution of free tickets for the theatre
Eud concerts among the blind last year, and
they are actively intereste in The advanceInent
Of the sightess. Miss Holt established a bureau
in London two years ago for tn sale of the
work Of the blind.
Il is Planned to call the prospective bureau the
the United States Employment Bureau and
Handicraft shop, and 10 have it run coop
eratively by Boston Philadelphia and New
York Miss Helen Keller will probably come on
later 10 speak in the interest Of this new move
