Some day you will strike n winning

This Is my one firm convictions;
Worrying has nevr paid,
Fretting is as false as fiction.

Cheerfulnoss is half the battle,
Smiles are half the shot and shell,
Frowns have oft been known to rattle
Men who might have finished well.
This I'm absolutely sure Of
Optimistic tuilers win.
There Is nothing like the lure of

When a man has mastered fretting
And can smile at grim despair,
Naught can keep that man from

TAFT AND The PEOPLE.

The report comes from Kansas that
the record made by President Taft's
administration will constitute the plat
form on which the Republicans Of that
state will make a winning fight. The
people there, it is asserted, trust the
President more than they trust either
Of the political parties.
No reason why they should not. as
the President in all his career has been
broader and bigger than hide-bound
party men. lie has shown this large
ness Of mind and character TO great
advantage since the development Of his
Canadian reciprocity policy. The poll
icy has been his guaranty Of good faith
10 the people. II was the statesman
like outcome Of the situation in which
the country was left by the enactment
Of the Paine -Aldrich tariff law. Very
carefully did the President use the re-
sponsibility rcpOsed in him by the
maximum and minimum clause Of that
remarkable law. by coming to the
rescue of the people with the arrange
ment for Canadian reciprocity, the
President has incurred enmity from
two sources-from the ultra high pro-
tective tariff men, who see a menace
10 privilege and monopoly profits, and
from Republican insurgents who quar-
rel with what he has done not because
IT is not good thing for the country.
hut because 1t has taken the wind from
their sails-they wanted to propose
something Of the sort themselves.
The people seem, however. to under
stand the situation pretty well. There
are indications far and wide that the
artful efforts 10 arouse Republican vot
ers against President Taft might just
as well be abandoned, for they cannot
possibly prevail.

GREAT RESULTS ARE PREDICTED
Reports Of Seemingly Miraculous
Cures Continue to Pour in Ef-
fects of Treatment Explained

| Ever since it was announced few
days ago that the new Root Juice
Medicine is now obtainable in tbs icty,
pie at the drug stores eager to learn
| OF, or purchase the strange new dis
covery that has recently created so
much excitement in Davenport and
other central western cites.
People from all parts of the city
have called at the drug store during
the past few days and a few have
even come from nearby towns to OBJ
tain supply of the medicine which,
according to Davenport people, eXerts
such a wonderful influence over such
conditions as stomach trouble, indiges-
ton, kit Iey trouble and backaches,
rheumatism, stiff, sore, swollen limbs
and joints and all similar complaints.
There has not of course been time
enough as yet to learn what result
the medicine is giving in various cases
here, but in view of the seemingly
wonderful cures that have been re-
ported from elsewhere it seems fore
gone conclusion that it will produce
| the same benefit for the many local
people who are already testing it's
powers
Davenport people continue to report
the most astonishing results and each
day seems to bring forth the story of
some cure more interesting, more re-
markable than any that have already
been made public.
The case of Mrs. E. r. Remer is a
most interesting one, the story of
which is best told in her own words.
When seen at her home, 1912 West

The strange thing about the new
treatment is that it seldom fails. Near

same almost miraculous results. In
cases of rheumatism where the SUI
ferers have been afflicted for years
and suffered untold agonies, it is said
that the pain and soreness vanished
as if by magic.
Persons who had not enjoyed q
square meal for years, owing to loss Of
appetite and poor digestion say that
few doses effected results that they
did not before think possible.
A man who suffered from backache
for thirty-five years used 1t for short
time and now claims he is free from all
