Eleven Reasons Why the saloon
should he Allowed to Live

This fine bit of irony is being used
with. good effect in a number Of no
license contests:
l. Because OF its moral uplift in
the community
,. Because of its purifying effect
on politics.
2. Because it is such a Iaw-abiding
institution.
:. Because drinking helps on- 10
get a good job and keep H.
). Because il makes business - for
the courts.
8. Because drunkards - the saloons
finished product - make such good
husbands and loving fathers
:. Because saloons always make a
city safer and better place for boys
and girls 10 grow up in.
s. Because all right-minded fathers
and mothers pray that their sons may
become saloon keepers.
2. Because il raises public revenue
by a tax upon what the poor people
drink that the rich may dodge tax
alton on what they possess.
10. Because to close the saloons
would cause such an Increased sale Of
home comforts that your children
would be run down IN the streets by
delivery wagons
II. Because without saloons crime
pauperism and graft would be elimi-
mated. and unspeaka BILE injury would
result TO the public in consequence

 Rural recreation is another great factor in achieving a healthy and normal living. The boy needs physical expression particularly in games such as baseball and relay races, where one runner depends upon the other for the success of the team. This team work will do much to bring about a neigh borly spirit of cooperation. We are having community play days and car nivals- in which every boy and girl man and woman takes part.
 The whole question of the home is V1tally involved in rural community progress which implies the better knowledge of the needs of the home and the conditions that must be met before home life can be made more satisfactory. Among the results of this will be the further invention and Introduction of the labor saving de- vices The spirit of the home will De conserved by the development of the closer relation between parents and children. Many parents meetings are held where emphasis is being laid upon comradeship and friendship be- tween parents and their children as well as the need of inspiring boys and slris 10 greater interest in the ar rangement of the home and i'm conserv- ing its spirit and ordliness Sanita- tion, domestic and community hy- g1ene, the whole question of the con- servation of rural health in fact, are taken into consideration and discuss ed.
 Rural progress in country life can- not be made without great spiritual force and, therefore the r. M c. A. puts first and foremost .,e spiritual movement in everything. It holds out no selfish incentive to those who would join in its efforts. The organization IS based upon the getting together to do something for a community Much is being said these days about the federation of the rural church, but there is an aspect of federation con- corning which little is said This is the bringing together of community forces regardless of denominatfdf1aI lines and the working together for a. common program involving the entire realm Of economies, education, social life, civics, recreation. the home and spiritual affairs. This work is now being conducted in 22 states and in the provinces of United States and Canada with 50 employed experts in 50 different counties and over 800 conn munities.

.PRESBYTER|ANS SEE HERETICS FORGED
 FROM CHURCH
Especial from United Press. !

Atlantic City, May 22-When the second week ofhthe Presbyterian Gen. eral Assembly opened today chief in- terest was in the outcome of the vari- ous heresy trials and the action on the reports of the committees on de- partmental consolidation.
 So far as the report Of the judicial committee in the Brown case was con- cerned it was generally accepted that 1t would report in favor of placing the president of Union Theological Sem- mary on trial. There is a general feeling among the delegates that the question would be finally disposed of and all preachers, who believe Dr. Brown and others will be forced out of the church, point to a paragraph in Moderator Carson's sermon of yester- day as bearing out their contention He said:
 1.-The church must accept and believe the Bible without equivocation or com- promise and must proclaim its orbed revelation"

would be sufficient to set the country squarely on its feet, and give it the right swing. There is overwhelming evidence in support of the statement that crop prospects were never better both for volume of agricultural yield but for superior average quality. The outlook is for record breaking pro- auction. Tn the commodity markets the Future prices give promise, of remunerative prices for the leading crops. For the farmer the view is full of good cheer, and it is upon the broad cultivated area of the Nation that the structure of true permanent prosperity and progress must rest. It IS the only safe and lasting founda- tion. In that regard the year 1911 leaves little to be desired. With nor mai weather conditions it will be the banner agricultural year in our Ma tional history.

Of voice-production. He never slipped.

old and faithful stock. But one even

showed unaccountable signs of nerv-

he confused it with the pheasant. He

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
guest. Address Professor Munyon, SD /
Jefferson Sts., Philadelphia. Pa. If you are
In need of medical advice. do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed AZ care
fully a. though you had 4 personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour. they do
not Eripe, they do not weaken. but they
do start all the secretions of tho liver
and stomach in = way that soon puts
these organs in a healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 20 feet of human
bowels. which is really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing bliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have clear
complexion or enjoy good health. If
1 had my way I would prohibit the sale
of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are = tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead Of impoverish
1t; they enable the stomach to get all
the nourishment from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.
