Foley's Honey and Tar has been a
household favorite for all ailments
of the throat, chest and lungs. For
infants and children it is best and
safest as it contains no opiates and
no harmful drugs. None genuine
but Foley's Honey and Tar in the
yellow package. Refuse substitutes.

the main shaft went into this second

ADMIRAL MAHAN's WARNING
Our Admiral Mahan. naval exp

Our Admiral Mahan. naval expert

In the London Mall under the caption

talnS these words:
"A democracy like Great Britain
stands at IA great disadvantage toward
n people Ike the GcrmanS. who are
accustomed to n strong government"
Admiral Muhan also notes that 'Tn
the future. she Wcrmany) can do an

trine."
Concerning the article the Mime.
apOlis Journal says: Thus Admiral
Mahan raises again the question
whether an absolute monarchy Is IN
tho nature of things a superior mill.
tary engine to a democracy, and whe.
thcr the latter always contends with
he former at great disadvantage.
The success or the PrussIan system
In the last nifty years has been 80
tremendous that other sorts OF
strength are invariably compared with
| It. Moreover. In the last fifteen years
! another absOlut monarchy In the Far
East. borrowing the Prussian method
and improving 1t. has likewise scorcd
dramatic and world shaking success.
But IL II correct to dcduce from those
two modern instances a gcncraliza-
ton 80 complete.
Britain. argues Admiral Mahan. IL
ut the mercy OF an absOlutism because
she herself. being Il democracy. can.
not mobilize her force with equal
speed and efficiency. And Germany.
at her convenience can nullify the
Monroe Doctrine. because that IL de-
Tended by militarily ineffective dc.
macracy.
But the inquiry IL pertinent whether
the success OF Germany was not due
to the accidental possession OF the
greatest master OF statecraft the mod
crn world has known. That suggcs
ton does not depreciate the value Of
the Prusslan system. but observes
that the conjunction N n Bismarck
with the system accounts for It's sue
cess.
German absolutism has been enor.
mously efficient only for a period com.
prised within nifty years. No doubt
tho German System permits a swifter
blow TO be delivered. A japanese
absolutism permitted the sudden blow
that opened the Manchurian war. but
Japan. before the war was finished.

They cmphasiZe universal brother

can learn more from Colonel Cody
than from Henrik ibscn. We have
proftcd more by listening to Major
