HONESTY IN LAWMAKINe-

There is told at the Missouri capital
a story of a legislator who expressed
regret that he could not support a plea
der before one Of his committees. The
legislator agreed that the statement %

he was led TO think. absolutely worthy
OF belief. Under the argument and pre-
.sentatiOn of the subject in detail. IL be-
came fairly clear TO the legislator that
he was wrong in his first view. Yet
he saw no way OF voting as he believed
for the reason that his people back
home" would not applaud him for IL
He was wrong. Of course wrong both
ways. First Of all, he should have vote

that. he was wrong in his assumption
that his constituency would chastise
him for voting as his light led II the

First Lieutenant +. II Reubottam. of
the Ninth cavalry. who has devoted
considerable attention TO rifle practice,
strongly favors preliminary practice
before going on the range. He says
the preliminary trials do two things:
First. they teach the soldier how to aim
his piece; second. they develop the
muscles used in aiming and firing and
taking the different positions. He
gives some interesting comparisons be-
tween the work done by companies
when having preliminary practice and
when going on range without such
practice.

 SCHWEITZER

Herman Schweitzer died at the post hospital at Fort Gibbon early Saturday morning. He had been at the hospital several weeks suffering from cancer of the intestines, and it was known that he was beyond hope of recovery.

Thanksgiving
Proclamation
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT SETS
THURSDAY NOV. 20 AS DAY
FOR GENERAL 5GIV-

President Roosevelt has issued
from W ashingeon, D. c., his Thanks
giving Proclamation as follows:
"Once aga:l the season of the year
has come, when, in accordance with
the custom of our forefathers for
generations past, the president APP
points a day as an especial occasion
for all our people to give praise and
thanks to God.
During the past year we have
been free from famine, from pesti-
lence and from war. We are at peace
with all the rest of mankind. Our
natural resources are at least as great
as those of any other nation. We
believe that in ability to develop and
take advantage of these the

average man of this nation stands at
least as high as the average man of
any other. Nowhere else in the
world is there such an opportunity
for free people to develope to the full
est extent all it's powers of body, of
mind and of that which stands above
both body and mind-character.
"Much has been given US from or
high and much will rightly be ex-
gpected of us in return. Into our care
ten talents have been entrusted, and
we're to be pardoned neither if we
squander and waste them, o yet if
we hide them in a napkin, for they
must be fruitful in our hands ever
throughout the ages. At all times
and among all peoples prosperity has
been fraught with danger and it be-
hooves us to beseech the Given of all
things that we may not fall into a
love Of ease and luxury; that we
may not lose our sense of moral re-
sponsibility; that we may not forget
out duty to God and to u neighbor.
ga great democracy like ours, a
democracy based upon the principles
of orderly liberty, a be perpetuated
only if in the heart of the ordinary
citizens there dwells a keen sense of
righteousness and justice. W. should
earnestly pray that this spirit of
righteousness and justice may grow
ever greater in the hearts of all of
us and that our souls may be inclined
evermore both toward the virtues
that tell for g%entleness and tender
ness. for loving ek1ndness and for
bearance one with another, and to-
ward those no less necessary virtues
that make for manliness and rugged
hardihood, for without these qualities
neither nation nor individual can
rise to the level of greatness.
"Now, therefore, I, Theodore Roose-
welt, president OF the United States,
do set apart Thursday, the 18th day
Of November, as a day of general
thanksgiving and prayer, and On that
day I recommend that the people
shall ease from their daily work, and
in their homes or in their churches,
meet, devoutly to thank the AL
mighty for the many and great bless
ings they have received in the past
and to pray that they may be given
strength SO to order their lives as to
deserve a continuation of these bless
I ings in the future"

NEED It NOW

Here is a simple homemade mix
ture as given BY an eminent autnori-
ty on Kidney diseases. VINO makes
the statement in a New York daily
newspaper. that it will lelire almost
any case of Kidney trouble if taken
before the stage Of Bright's disease.
He states that sub symptoms as lame
back. pain in the side, frequent desire
to urinate. especially at night; pain
full and discolored urination, are read
lily overcome. Here is the recipe;
try it:
Fluid Extract Dandelon, one-half
ounce: Compound Kargon. one onuce:
Compound Syrup Sarsarparilla. three
ounces. Take teaspoonful after
each meal and at bedtime.
A well known druggist here In
town is authority that these ingre-
dents are all harmless and easily
mixed at home by shaking we'll in a
bottle. This mixture has a peculiar
healing and soothing effect upon the
entire Kidney and Urinary structure.
and often overcomes the worst forms
of Rheumatism in just little while.
This mixture is said to remove all
blood disorders and cure the Rheu-
matism by forcing the Kidneys to
filter and strain from the blood and
system all uric acid and foul. decom-
posed waste matter. which cause
these affections. Try it if you aren't
well. Save the prescription.
