VOICE And LEADER
OF The WORLD

rs long ago as the last half of
n the eighteenth century it
was the press that nodded
public opinion. The famous 'Let-
tiers of Junius" started the wave
that finally resulted in widespread
ing reforms in England. The
"Rights of Man" and other pam
phlets had prodigious circulation
and exerted an immeasurable in
huence toward the same ends.
A little book, Common Sense"
set the colonies on fire for indie
pendence, and the printing of Pat
rick Henly's and Samuel Adams
speeches, of Franklin's and other
papers and of Thomas Paine's
"Crisis" was powerful aid in the
American Revolution.
1t was the writings of Voltaire
and Rousseau and the news of our
own war for independence that
brought on the revolution in
France. "Uncle Toms Cabin"
which was first published in a
newspaper, had tremendous infu-
ence in freeing the slave.
IN THE PRESENT DAY AN
ALERT, VIGOROUS AND couRA-
GEoUs PRESS WILL BE FOUND
BEHIND EVERY POLITICAL UP
RISING, EVERY ADVANCE MOVE
MENT.
WHO CAN MEASURE THE
POWER OF A GREELEY? AT
one period the London Times
swayed the diplomacy of Europe.
The American newspapers and
magazines are largely responsible
for the present transformation of
political thought in the United
States.
The press, which was a power
$50 years ago, has become all po-
tent today. 1T is THE VOICE
AND LEADER OF THE
WORLD. Only by following it
can one keep abreast of the move
ments of our own time.

How to Treat Pimples.

1t is really remarkable how Cadum,
the new remedy, causes pimples to
disappear. Bad cases are frequently
relieved in a few days. Cadum causes
pimples to dry up and fail off leaving
the skin soft and smooth. Pimples
are disease of the skin, and are not
caused by bad blood, as many people
suppose. Cadum helps these disfgur-
ing blemishes because it is applied
direct to the trouble. 1t is an antisep
tic and prevents infection from disease
germs. Cadum should be Immediately
applied to pimple, scratch, sore or
wound as neglect of these small trout
bles sometimes proves serious. At
all druggists. Toe. ard 25cs per box.
