A Nation of Mnsters.


In single opening paragraph in
his speech before the governors in
conference at Washington, James ].
Hiol tells q. truth about the American
people and the condition of the age
which ought to cause all to pause
and considers That paragraph is as
follows:
''Of an the sinful MASTERS of man'sI
inheritance on EARTH" said the late
Professor Shaler, land all are in this
regard sinner. the very worst are the
people OF America" This Isl not a
popular phrase, but a scientific judg-
ment. 1t Is borne out by facts. In
the movement of modern times, which
has made the world commercially u
small place and has produced a sol
idnrity Of the race such as never be-
fore existed, we have come to the
point where we must to certain ex-
tent regard the natural resources of
lthis planet as common asset, COM
pare them with demands now made
Upon them, and study their judicious
use. Commerce, wherever untranl-
meled is wiping out boundaries and
substituting the world relation of de-
maud and supply for smaller systems
Of local economy. The. changes of a
single generation have brought the
nations Of the earth closer together
than were the states of the Union ut
the close of the Civil War. II we fall
to consider what we possess of wealth
available for the uses of mankind,
and to what extent we are wasting a
national patrimony that can never be
restored. we. might be likened to the
directors of company who never
examine balance sheet.

The next morning after the scherr
incident here he went to Lewis
county and spent the day ip the in
terest of his campaign. His jaw was
doubtless sore but his injuries were
of such trivial nature as not to In
terfere with the personal work OF
his campaign. In fact, persons at
Weston said after he was there that
they would not have known that he
had been assaulted the night before,
If the newspapers had not published
accounts OF 1t.

Complaint is made that a lot of poor
lumber is being used in the city street
work. This is wrong, as 1t is always
best to have the best material. The
work then becomes of a permanent
nature and does not require further
attention so soon. There is nothing
but folly in using poor material be-
cause it can be purchased cheaper
than good STUFF.

"a movement has obtained several
years to rescue the public debt at the
beginning OF every city administra-
tion, ana, though there was a deter
mined EFFORT this year not to- do so,
.butato act in reputable manner and
thus lower the credit of the city. the
established custom prevailed and VIII
doubtless prevail farther before the
work Of the year is taken up. There
has been a crying demand for years
that the outstanding debt be paid
and 1t Il right that this demand
should be yielded to.

The working of prisoners in the
streets heretofore has been found ex-
pensive from the viewpoint of cost
and the return received. Since it has
been decided by the mayor to do so
this year, the cost and the result
should lie 'ascertained at an early
date to determine whether it Is TO he
an expense not warranted. All fail
to see the good Of 1t as a reformation.

FOR CONSTIPATION
A Medicine That Does Not Cost Any
thing Unless Il Cures.

If you suffer from constipation in
any form whatever, acute or chronic,
we will guarantee to supply you medi-
cine that will surely effect a cure if
taken with regularity and according to
directions for a reasonable length of
time. Should the medicine fail to
benefit you to your entire satisfaction,
we promise that it shall cost you moth
ing.
No other remedy can be compared
with Rexall Orderlies for the easy,
pleasant and successful treatment of
constipation. The active medicinal in
gredient of this remedy which is odor-
less, tasteless and cOlorless, is an en-
tirely new discovery. Combined with
other extremely valuable ingredients,
it forms a preparation which is incom-
parable as perfect bowel regulator,
intestinal invigorator and strengthen
|er. Rexll Orderlies are notable for
their agreeableness to the palate and
gentleness of action. They do not
cause gripping or any disagreeable eff
feet or inconvenience, and may be
taken at any time, day or night.
We particularly recommend Rexall
Orderlies for children, delicate or aged
persons, because they do not contain
anything that could possibly injure the
most delicate organism. They are just
as easy to take as candy, and unlike
| other preparations for a like purpose
they do not create habit, but in
stead they overcome the cause of hab-
its acquired through the use of ordin-
airy laXatives, cathartics and harsh
physic, and permanently remove the
cause of constipation or irregular
bowel action.
| We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
at our risk. We know that there is
nothing that will do you so much good,
and we will refund your money with
out argument if they do not do as we
say they will. They are prepared in
tablet form in two sizes of packages:
l36 tablets, 25 cents, and II tablets, 10
lcents. T. H. Thomas, druggist.
