No Change Necessary
In RexaII Remedies

The new Pure Food Law requires every pat
ent medicine manufacturer to tell just what oan-
qerous drug is in his medicine. Certain PERIOD
icals interested in patent medicine reform nave
declared that the formulas OF many patent meol-
cines will have to be changed before the manu-
facturers will dare conform with this law. these
periodicals also declare that the public will never
know of these changes, and never know what.
these remedies formerly contained.
This suspicion, however, cannot rest upon Kex-
all Remedies. You have absolute proof that
Rexa Remedies have net been changed to con-
form with the new Pure Food Law, because J0n

That's where the Rexall plan goes further to
SAFEGUARD you than does the Pure Food Law.
Even now you'll only know the dangerous drugs
in other patent medicines, while you have always

The Rexal guarantee has been the greatest
evidence of the sincerity back of the ReXa KEN 4
edies. For four years ReXall druggists have
offered to return the money to any one who
brought back an empty Recall bottle or package
and said they were not satisfied.

Unsse Remu.'. Mawa.Ias for July.


 It Is always a subject of general ins terest, and usually one of general re- joicing as well. when we discover subject that has been worn thin with much handling, discussed in a new and refreshing way and from Q point ok nary. But 1t is just this refreshing tn- novation that we find in Uncle Relnus's Magazine for July. when Mir. Joel Cham dler Harris, the editor, brings the calm judgment of Mir. Billy Sanders to bear on the very strenuous Queston of the Panama Canal

 Mir. Sanders takes up the whole sub ject with refreshing philosophy which must prove inspiring even to the Pres ident himself, for, declares FThe Sage of Shady Dale, When 1t comes to dig gin the canal thar ain't nobody in earnest but Teddy and 8 few long headed men in the south.
 The comments of MT. Sanders" are characterized by an insight into tho subject as well as by an original hand- ling of 1t. and we believe that eve1 some masters of statescraft might do well to read carefully what Billy" has to say on this perplexing problem of the present administration.

just as is the vice-P Pre- sident.
 Uncle Cannon may be the next President National Conventions are mighty uncertain assemblies. cannon Is from the. State of Lincoln and in many respects he is suggestive of Lineoln-his pIainness. his simpli- city, his democracy. There ought to be q constitutional amendment mak- ing ineligible to the Presidency every body but the lollycoddIes-that Is to say, nobody that has the least dispo- sition to open pandora boxes, or fire off unloaded pistols, or rock loaded skins ought to be President. R. B. Hayes was the best President this country ever had. and he wasn't el- ected. The President of the United States ought to be a man who would take orders. not give them.
 Ours is the representative system. the genius of the English system of parliamentary rule, Congress ought to be the ruler and the President only figure head, to do what Con- gress tells him to do. Wen the Presi- dent rules then is Is O mo larehy, what ever you call 1t. When the rule Is by popular vote, then it is a democracy, whatever you call 1t. The autocracy of Persia was an execrabIe government, but the democracy of Athens was worse, just as a thousand 'tyrants are more insupportable than one tyrant The best government Is between the en-remes of autocracy and democracy, and that Is representative government as 1t exists in our Federal Constitu- ton and the earlier State constitutions --the rule of the people through their elected agents. That protects us from the wicked man on horseback and the foolish man on stump-top and as long as we are guarded against these two we have little to fear
 Uncle Joe is no mollycoddle. and hence there are plenty of men in both parties who would do better for Pres ident than he, but Uncle Joe is not prone to opening pandora boxes and things, and hence also he would be a better President than some we wot of But as speaker, Uncle Cannon is so | accustomed to giving orders that he would be sure to continue the pract- ice as President. It is out of the ques- ton that he would take orders after playing Czar six years in Congress The other day Mir.

The American House of Represea ta- lives ought to be the greatest politi- cal delibe rative body in the world but for eighteen yeG-s 1t has not been a deliberative body at all. According to the genius of our system. which is but the English system transplanted. the Speaker of Congress should be to the House what the Vice President is to the Senate, @ presiding officer only. James L. hilton Lewis suggests that it is in the power oL the House or Rep resentatives to take a Speaker with ont It's membership, and 1t is wortn the trial, if thereby self-government could be restored to the Representa- lives or the people, something they have not enjoyed since the Speaker seized upon, and has exercisoa without successful question, the autocratic mowers of a czar. No bill can pass Congress to which the SpSaker IS op- posed. It is scarce extravagance to say that no bill is lost in the House that the Speaker actively favors. The Brlt- ish Parliament would not endure such A despotism a single day. And 1t Is that very thing of one-man power that has made the United States Senate the parliamentary ruler of this country.
 Who pays any attention to the work of the House? It only sita to cut out work for the Senate and agree to whatever the Senate Is resolved upon Instead of using the purse to govern the country. the House is but the nurse holder for the Senate. When the rate bill was in the House las. Con- gress 1t did not create ripple. In the Senate 1t kept the country in storm perjetual for months.

for speaI<ef. and believe that he was one of the favorfte sons that Page, of California. and Hazelton, of Wisconsin, employed to kill off Frank HiscocE and elect Keller. The Forty eighth, Forty ninth. and Fiftieth Congress were Democratic, and now Cannon had be- come very prominent on the Repubh- can side. Nothing of an orator, his strength was in his vast and accurate knowledge of the business and the detail of the annual appropriation bills.
 He was sure-enough candidate for Speaker of the Fifty-hrst Congfess and hoped to run away with the bone whle Reed and Mckinley were growi- ing over 1t. Reed made him chairman of appropriations. He had reached the goal He held the purse. Much of a watchdog. he fought like very Hector of Troy against the billion expense ac- count. That ringtailed monkey from Tuscaloo Came on to fight that Kangaroo. He fought and he fit till his belly
 dragged the ground;
 He curled his tail and fought another
 round.
 That is the way Uncle Josie fought prodigality. It was the longest session in the history of Congress, and daily the appropriations swelled. until they touched the billion mark. That fall Joseph was beaten for Congress by a Democratic farmer of the name of he was not Busy d'Amboise in par liament. and his$ presence in the House served only to drect attention to the absence of Cannon. There is all too much of that sort of thing in Ameri- can politics.
