due to the unsettling of conditions in
cident to every presidential campaign.
Under presidential primaries the par
ty electorates would select for their
nominee the individuals possessing
the confidence of the greatest number
and the general electorate would elect
man in whom they had the greatest
1fidence. Confidence in our govern

"Assuredly this plan of a nation
wide presidential primary should re-
ceive the cordial Endorsement of every
man who contemplates being a candi-
date for the nomination. No man
could consider himself a presidential
possibility if he questioned the ability
OF the people to express an honest
and intelligent choice among the men
who aspire to be the nations CHIEF
public servant.
The power of popular selection OF
candidates is of utmost Importance to
good government, for the ballot is oil
little value to the voter if he must
cast it for one of two candidates, both
selected by federal office holders or
professional politicians. Let us make
this in fact, as well as in name a

LARGELY MATTER OF FAITH
Proof Of Authenticity Of Relics, Re-
lIsIous or Historical, In Most
Cases impossible.

Tho authenticity Of relics, religious
or historical, must in many cases be
largely a matter of faith; proof is
often lacking, often indeed impossible
to procure. The number of couches
notable from the fact "that they have
been slept in by good Queen Bess'
shown In manor houses is legion and
the same may be said of many other
historical heirlooms the real history
of which Is lost In the mists of an
tiquity. How many pairs of gloves
were given by King Charles as keep
sakes on the day of his execution?
There are quite number of claimants
for the honor. One pair has recently
been the cause of law suit, and 1t
was said in the course of the trial
that they were given by the king to
Bishop Juxon on the scaffold. There
Is yet another pair which has had a
far stranger history than most Stuart
relics, which have indeed little his
tory, but quiet passing from genera
ton to generation In English country
houses. They were sent by King
Charles on the day of execution by a
trusty hand to Speaker Lenthall "for
amity's sake" Only one of the pair
now survives, the other was burned
in bush fire In Australia. The
precious gloves had gone there when
the Lenthalls awhile ago left their
homes and their lands and had, with
Charles H.'s pardon Of Lenthall, been
cherished In many wanderlngs in Au-
stralia. The surviving glove and the
pardon are now back In England, be-
cause happily the Lenthalls are back.
1t is quite likely that King Charles
gave away several pairs of gloves, for
gloves then were costly things-cities
gave them to visiting sovereigns
where now addresses or gold boxes
are given. But in the days of the
Stuarts gloves were costly enough at
any rate to carry sentiment, even a
kings sentiment.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop

The reason is plain-the article did not

This applies more particularly to a
medicine. A medicinal preparation that
has real curative value almost sells it.
self, as like an endless chain system the
remedy is recommended by those who
have been cured, to those who are in
need of it.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says, "Take
for example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
a preparation l have sold for many
years and never hesitate to recommend,
for in almost every case it shows i'm
mediate results, as many of nv custo.
mers testify. No other kidney remedy
that l know of has so large SALE"
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact that it fulfls
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and Bladder diseases, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

OLD AGE IS MEMORABLE
Men Find It Out When They Attempt

Fashion.

II you ever doubt that you're grow
Ing old and sedate, you fathers, just
take the kids out into the woods and
see the difference between yourself
Of today and yesterday.
You see them plunging about with
whoops Of Joy, and generally living
gladly.
And you-well, when you try to sit
down your knees creak, and the
leaves beneath you don't seem as
they once did.
The golden sunshine filters through
the trees; the rustic of small living
things resounds through the woods;
the perfume of rich ripening things
floats to you, and within you some
thing Is struggling to break loose.
You don't know just what It is, but
1t hurts. You are too old now to run
and whoop and carry on like those
kids. It would be beneath your dig.
nifty, but something within you seems
calling to you, and your old body can't
respond.
You want to yell and run-that is,
you believe you do, but it's no use,
Something is holding you back.
So there you sit and watch the
children playing, and their happiness
Is as once yours was.
And It makes the heart ache to
think Of it-some day they will be
even as you-longing to break. loose
into Joy born Of the autumn. but held
back. Held back BY something lAat
we call old age.
