ALWAYS IN THE DITCH.
Hampton Chronicle.l

There is one class of people who are
always in the ditch. They start In the
ditch. they work there and there they
stay until released from earthly toll
In all the walks of lie man can be
found who adheres to one line of rea :
soning and attempts to adapt it to all
circumstances and environments. Like
the forefather of old, who was Meth
odist because his father and rather
father had been, and for the same rea-
son turned his son from his cabin door
because he too would not, or could not
see the light as his worthy progenltors
had seen it. Like this man we see
around us men in all the avenues OF
business, society and politics, who
cling to the time established princi-
pies which they believe in, and have
believed in, simply because they have
cultivated the habit. This in itself is
not so bad, if it is correct and an
piled to but one thing, but when this
individual attempts to govern all MS
actions by the same rule Of conduct,
and to even carry it to the extremity
of forming his opinion of other men
by it, then he is in the ditch. Have
man who censures a younger man OF
today for being believer in "a new
thought? In the recent trouble which
strained the bonds OF. republlcanlsm
within our party to point where they
almost severed, and caused separa-
ton in our party, we have the man
who has chung to principles which ne
considers is basic rerublicanism, and
now because some of the others cannon
see his light he cenSures them ana
seeks to villify their characters. Ii
republican of today is honest in his
opinion then is he not just as much a
"real republican, as they whose idea
Of party principles is formed by rules
laid down half century ago? Whlch
man is the one in the ditch, the one
who thinks he is a republican and is
honestly attempting to reconcile the
troubles, or the one, who pbmpous III
his belief that he alone is right, sits
back and compares his own ante bel
lum arguments with those of the new
err recruit and says, you are wrong,
whatever you say is wrong, am right,
accord to me that much because l
know more and was republican be-
fore you were born Which man then
is ii VINO is in the ditch. which man IS
it who deserves the most considerable
and honest appreciation of his Fellow
men, the one who thinks he is IN the
right and trying to make an improve
ment. or the one who is pointing only
ia the ST for his vain arguments?

have been large, but they were needs
full. That was not the fault of the.
board. Neither is it the fault of the
administration. Would it have been
economy to have not made the i'm
.provements? In the matter of mains
tenance the board has been means
of great saving to the state, a fact
which is easily provable. For food
stuffs alone thousands of dollars are
saved quarterly, while the affairs of all
the institutions have been put upon 2
business basis, a fact which cannot
help but be means of economy to the
state. Besides Iowa institutions, like
the state, are among the best in the
union. What's the use of "beefing"'

THE SIREN AUTO HORN.

The suit of the city OF Fort Dodge
against Ed. Rank in the effort to make
him lay aside the siren horn on his
auto. which holds the, record for
strange suits In this state for SONS
years past, is for trial at the next term
of the district court 1n view of this
fact a description of the horn that
caused the trouble and in the words
of big headlines in leading dailies al!
over the country, startled the mayor
will no doubt be interesting to many
The horn was inYented by French
man about two years ago and at once
took a popular place. 1T is operated
automatically by the pressing OF
lever The sound is produced by a
revolving mechanism in the front OF
the horn and starts with a slight Whit
louder. The principle is the same as
in the small Devil whistles" much III
favor with small boys. The lever pres
ses bulb against the fly wheel Wh1ch
turns the buzz mechanism In the
front part of the horn and starts the
sound. A special copy right cable from
Paris to the New York World on the
siron horn has some interesting points
on the matter. IL Is do loi'ONs.
Paris.-Sirens instead of ordinary
horns are growing in use among auto
mobilists. This warning apparatus
which makes noise like the wall Oh a
lost soul, is much more effective as =
frightener than any common tooter. a
cart driver asleep in the bottom OF MS
vehicle is not easily reused by the
sound of an ordinary auto horn be-
cause he long since has become aceusr
toned to it, but the SIRENS song aWak-
ems him to the danger and the neces-
sity of giving a portion of the route.

All women work some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society And in stores,
mills and shops tens Of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see woman
struggling to earn a livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is SO
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin Of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganism.
Miss Il. Orser, of IA Warrenton Street,
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering she writes:

BOTH FOOD
AND MEDICINE.

We like best to call SCOTS
Emulsion a food-medicine. 1t
is a term that aptly describes
the character and action Of
our Emulsion. More than
medicine--more than a food,
yet combining the vital prin-
ciples of both. 1t is for this
reason that SCOTS Emulsion
has a distinct and special
value in all wasting diseases.
There is nothing better to
remedy the troubles of i'm
perfect growth and delicate
health in children. The action
of SCOTS Emulsion is just as
effective in treating weak
ness and wasting in adults.

IS BOARD OF CONTROL ECONOMY

The Sioux City Journal, always eager
to find some criticism of the state adj
ministration. complains that the board
of control is not proving an agent of
economy, as it was hoped It might IN
Iowa. 1t implies that the board has
been too jealous in its desire to build
that it stands against instead of for the
taxpayers. Attempting to shift the re-
sponsibility on Governor Cummins, the
Journal reminds its readers That the
veto power does not rest with the
board of control, and intimates that
it is time the legislature interviewed to
stop reckless expenditures.
In the first place. the Journals as
sertion that the board has not proved
an agent of economy is hardly sus-
ceptible of demonstration, and again
one might raise the question of whal
the board has spent lots of money. but
there is every reason to believe that
much more would have been required
and spent under the old system. If
Perkins had been governor would he
have vetoed any of the appropriations
for state institutions? The Journal in
Inmates that it is the business of the
board to expend the money the legis-
.ature in its wisdom ses fit to appro-
pirate. The board will not be disposed
to quarrel with that assertion But Is
1t not also the business of the board
TO recommend appropriations? II
ought 10 know better than anybody
else their needs and necessities.
