There are too many grandstand
players. We have them in every
walk of life. II you watch base
ball game you will see a fellow who
wears loud sweater and who poses
IN the field. He will run like a deer
when it is unnecessary. When he
makes a poor slide he gets up and
limps away as though he was badly
injured, and il he had not been he
would have made the base. The
grandstand player is in church and
in the lodge. When things are quiet
and there is onlI the nid-week
prayer meeting, the grandstand
player has nothing to say. But
when the church is full and some
thing is up, Mr.. Grandstand Player
is sure to get up, and with a flourish
of trumpets make a great bluff.
He's at church socials and tells all
about it. He never does any work
and he manages to get his hand on
all the honors floating around. He
never gives a cent to any good cause
without first standing on top oil
his house and yelling so the town
will notice him. The grandstand
works hard to fool the people and
thinks he is fooling the Lord. He
may. occasionally make his bluff
work with some unsuspecting broth
er, but he hasen't fooled the Lord
for second.

uanger to the people Of persistent en-
cioachments by the executive on the
rights and powers Of congress-will
not be deceived by the claim of some
Oh Mr.. Roosevelt's admirers that lin
discrediting congress the president is
hghting the peoples battle; that he
Is saving them from incompetent or
unscrupulous lawmakers. If this
argument were accepted as conclusive
IL might be possible in time to reduce
the congress of the United States TO
the level of a body which would be
limited to carrying out only the orders
OF the president. Now, presidents are
only human, after all. Having usurp-
ed the constitutional powers of the
iaw-making department of the gov
ernment and discredited congress ur-
terly by charges Of corruption and ir-
efhciency, president in the not re-
mote future might discover that the
people cannot govern themselves as
efflciently with free institutions as they
would with institutions adjusted to
thoroughly centralized government
Then congress might sink to the level
of a Russia Duma and the people
would probably realize in due season
that not only had the powers Of their
representatives in congress been
usurped but that popular sovereignty
had disappeared with it. 1t is vitally
important to the people of the Unite d
States that the constitutional powers
OF congress shall be asserted and
maintained impaired.-Baltimor

After the Vets.

GAINESVILLE, Ohio, AS sc cresult
of Civic league raid upon the
Arlington hotel bar, the business
section of this city was threatened
with serious riot last evening.
Marshal Stormont and deputies
of New Concord raided the place
and hauled the fruits of the raid
to New Concord in hay wagon.
During the progress of the raid
Deputy Cronk, with drawn re.
volyer, stood in the doorway. A
"wet" sympathizer in the crowd
hurled brick, striking him a
glancing blow. Bedlam broke
loose at once, and the raiders, in
order to avoid further trouble,
made quick getaway.

THE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Some Advise Against the Use
of Harsh Purgatives and
Physics.

A DOCTORS first question when
consulted by a patient Is, "Are
your bowels regular" He knows
that 90 per cent OF illness is at.
tended with inactive bowels and
torpid liver, This condition poisons
the system with waste matter and
causes accumulation of gases
which must be removed through
the bowels before health can be re.
stored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathar-
tics may be truly likened to dyna-
mite. Through their harsh, irri
tating action they force o passage
through the bowels, causing pain
and damage to tho delicate intest
inal structure which weakens the
whole system, and at best only
produces temporary relief. The
repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the
stomach and bowels, dries and
hardens their tissues, deadens their
nerves, stiffens their muscles and
generally brings about an injuri.
Gus habit which sometimes has al
most, if not fatal results.
We have pleasant and eafe

disorders in general. We are 80
certain of it's great curative value

WHAT THE
FARMER DID

Ohio's wheat production for
this year was 600, 354 bushels
less than for 1908. The average
yield per acre this year was slight.
ly in excess of that of last year,
but the acreage was less, and this
explains the falling off. The Oc-
tober report of the state agri-
cultural board issued Wednesday
gives a review of the harvest of
crops for the year with compari-
sons for the previous year. The
report says:
Ohio's wheat area for current
years harvest as reported by the
township assessors was l III 047
acres. Odicial correspondents of
this department now estimate that
the average yield per acre was l6
bushels. giving production OF
27,355 40 bushels for the state as
a whole Compared with the har-
vest of 1908 this is shortage of
600, 354 bushels. The average
yield per acre this season is slight
ly IN excess of that of last year,
but the exceedingly low acreage
harvested has reduced the general
production For the past five
years, not including the present
harvest, Ohio's wheat production
has been as follows:
1904. 81 900. 222 bushels; 1905,
80. 1852, 786 bushels; 1906. 80 279, :
$50 bushels; 1907. 3O,9lS. 367
bushels; 1908, 90, ,955. 406 bushels,
These figures clearly indicate that
Ohio's wheat acreage must neces-
sarily be greatly increased should
it hope to produce normal CROP.
The quality of the grain varies
great over the state, the gene al
average being estimated at 81 pr
cent. Reports show that 10 per
cent of the crop of 1908 remains
in producers hands. Ia many
sections of the state wheat seeG.
ing has been completed, while II
large number of correspondents re.
port this work as being retarded
by dry weather and the late ma
turing of corn. Where the plant
is showing above ground the re-
ports generally are M st favorable
as to it's condition. Some few
correspondents note the fact that
an unusually large acreage has
been sown for next years harvest,
but unless the ecreage is material
