FORCES THAT HAVE BEEN
WASTED

"The two greatest forces for the au'
vancement CT civilization are the
schoolmaster and good roads
"This is not modern day express
sion. It was uttered by Charles Sum
ner. the great Massachusetts senator,
more than fifty years ago. the Kan
sas City Star says. THAT the school
master and good roads have not been
the forces in the advancement of civil
lizaticn that they might have been is
evident. If Sumner could return to the
earth he would find that outside of his
own state and few others there has
been but little utilization of either the
country schoolnaster or the country
roads for the development OF better
civilization.
But it was apparent to the states
man CT Summers day, as it is apparent
to every thoughtful person now, that
good roads and good schools are in
separably linked together so far as the
rural districts are concerned. there
has been some effort made to improve
conditions so far as the country
schools are concerned, but the roads
are the same as the roads of half
century ago. And the people are be-
ginning to realize just now that the
great handicap to the country school
is the bad country roads.
There were bourbons in Summers
day. They insisted that they should
be let alone and not disturbed by the
forward march Of civilization.
"There are bourbons in this present
day. They insist that civilization pass
on and leave them alone with their
poor schools and bad roads,

AN AFTER CHRISTMAS THOUGHT

McCutcheon in the Chicago Tribune
and "Ding" in the Des Moines Regis
ter and Leader brought out the same
Idea in their cartoons this morning.
McCutcheon pictured man wearing a
halo Of Christmas spirit on Christ
mas day, and doffing the halo
the day after Ding pictured a
prosperous appearing citizen slap
ming an unfortunate on the back as he
raye him the price of an overcoat and
a Christmas meal for his family, and
then showed the same man the next
day bullying his employees. These
lines accompanied the Ding cartoon:
How changed it makes fellow and
how corking good he feels
When he has helped some sheartsick
devil to overcoat and meals.

To locate Joy in selfishness, where it's

BAD STOMACHS
PUT IN ORDER
THE MOST SEVERE CASE OF IN
DIGESTION, HEARTBURN OR
DYSPEPSIA is RELIEVED FIVE
MINUTES AFTER TAKING A
LITTLE DIAPEPSiN.

If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump of
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
Gas and Eructate sour, undigeSted
food or have a feeling of Dizziness,
Heartburn, Fullness, Nausea, Bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache-this
is Indigestion.
A full case of Pape's Diapepsin costs
only so cents and will thoroughly cure
your out-of-order stomach, and leave
sufficient about the house in case some
one else in the family may suffer from
stomach trouble or Indigestion
Ask your pharmacist to show YOU
the formula plainly printed on these
50-cent cases, then you will under
stand why Dyspeptic trouble OF all
kinds must go, and why they usually
relieve sour, out-of-order stomachs or
Indigestion in five minutes. Diapepsin
is harmless and tastes like candy,
though each dose contains power suffi-
cient to digest and prepare for as
sanitation into the blood all the food
you eat; besides, it makes you go to
the table with healthy appetite; but,
what will please you most is that you
will feel that your stomach and intes-
htines are clean and fresh, and you will
not need to resort to laxatives or liver
pills for BiliouSnesS or CONSTIPATION
This city will have many Diappesin
cranks, as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this
splendid stomach preparation, too, if
you ever Try little for Indigestion or
Gastritis or any other Stomach misery
Get some now, this minute, and for
ever rid yourself of Stomach Trouble
and Indigestion. **~

THISTLES AND DANDRUFF.
An Interesting Parallel and a Valuable
Deduction Therefrom.

Cutting down thistles no more re-
ieves the land of thistles than does
securing the scalp cure dandruff. In
each case permanent relief can only
come from eradicating permanently
the cause. A germ that plows up the
scalp in searching for the hair root
where it saps the vitality, causes dan
druff, falling hair, and badness. II
you kill that germ, you'll have no dan
druff but a luxuriant suit of hair. New
bros Herpicide is the only hair prepa-
ration in the world that cures dandruff
and falling hair by killing the germ.
