fore he boosts. He has good reason
for boosting. That which he boosts
deserves to be boosted.
Take a man who boosts his town.
1t is the center of the universe to him.
His property is there. His home. His
family. His future. Even his grave
He boosts his town because it is his
town and because he believes it is
worth boosting.
"One of the beauties about boosting
your community, for instance is the
reaction of it. When you boost your
town, you boost yourself. And boost
ing makes the booster happy.
"A newspaper writer says boosting
is the soul of work. That is fine
definition. Work, effort of any sort,
without enthusiasm, is but treadmill
a dreary round of commonplace.
There is no soul in it. Work without
soul in it is drudgery. Be booster
Put soul into effort.
And thus every boost in behalf OF
the town and its institutions-of the
auditorium, the new hotel, home prod
ucts-or whatever else it may be
will become a constant series of happy
accomplishments"

NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose from Grief.

What fortunate provision of nature
it is that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be
its grief to discover in the height of
its blooming glory that a canker fed
at its heart, and that its beauty and
fragrance were doomed forever. Ma
ture always spares the suffering; she
is veritabie storehouse of pleasing
rewards for those who seek her aid.
In the years gone by, falling hair and
grayness have cast a gloom over the
lives of thousands of young women,
but. thanks to the Investigations of
scientists, the true cause of hair de
struction is now known to be a germ
or parasite that burrows into the hair
follicles. Newbro's Herpicide absO
lutely destroys this germ, thus permit
ting the hair to grow as nature intend

Primary Legislation.

Representative John P. McGoortv
said in addressing the Jefferson-Lin-
coin club at Springfield on the subject
CT direct primary law, there are
some objections to such legislation.
but most of these objections are more
fancied than real. On the other hand,
Mr.. McGoorty further argued, the ben
efits to be derived from a correct pri-
mary law i'll publication of govern
meN and in giving the people the
power to govern themselves as they
should be governed, are almost fnnu-
merabie.
Among the benefits enumerated by
Mr.. McGoorty were more representa-
tive government, cleaner politics. less
bossism, stronger and more represent
tative party organizations. relegation
of corruptionists and the election OF
more honest and efficient men to of
flee.
AS has been argued all along by
friends of primary legislation, a com
|prehenSive, direct, plurality primary
law similar to the Oglesby bill. if not
identical to it, is what this state needs
1t is what the people have demanded
There was never a question put be
fore the people of the state which
they have answered with greater un
animity than on the question of pri
mary legislation. From the length
and breadth of the state comes the
general demand for such legislation
And the argument in favor of such leg
islatiOn is strengthened by the very
character of what little opposition
there is TO it. Unfortunately this lit
tie opposition seems concentrated il
just those officials whose duty it is t
answer public demand. 1t is concen
trated right in the legislative body o
| the state, and this shocking condition
exists because the republican majorit,
| in the legislature is largely subservien
to the influences of bosses" and ma
chine politicians. at whom primar,
! Legislation is directed.
But the present legislature can onl,
hinder ultimate enactment of the leg
| islation demanded. 1t cannOi prevent il
| Whether Or not this legislature pre-
duces correct primary law that vii

courts, it is but a batter of time unit

men to the legislature.
