The Track os the Earth.

II the sun and earth and the earth's
orbit could be seen. then the track OF
the earth would be spiral around that
of the sun. Go take a broomstick,
wind wire around 1t like thread on a
spool. take out the stick and stretch
the coil until the space between each
turn is. say, one-third Of an inch and
make a hundred turns Of the wire.
Then this spiral or coil would repre-
sent the track OF the earth through
space during a hundred years. The
sun moves toward the star Vega at Q
speed of twelve miles per second and
carries the earth. all the planets aud
their moons along. But they all movs
around the sun at the same time and
therefore traverse spirals. represented
fairly by extended coils OF wire.-Ed

GAUUn

SALNE.
Il had been troubled with weeping
eczema for months and used many
preparations for skin troubles with
out relief. The first application OF
Saxo Salve allayed the dreadful Itch
ing Immediately and after further use
my skin trouble entirely disappeared
Saxo Salve was just what I needed"
w. II. Glynn, Poughkeepsie. n Y,
In eczema the little vesicles or
pimples are flled with a fluid that
burns and tortures the skin the mo-
ment they are torn open by scratch

In such cases we can conscientious

Surprised Minister and
Congregation.

When a person gets something for
nothing, said something usually CON
tains a joker or has string attached to
it, For instance, certain preacher re-
celved from a patent medicine company
an offer to provide his church with song
books free Of any charge. It was ex-
planned that their would be a few ads
in the front end back Of the books but
that these ads would not be offensive to
the members Of the congregation, since
the books were being secured for moth
ing. The preacher gave the order and
the books arrived. He found the ads to
be mildly worded and decided to use II e
books, explained from the pulpit how
the books had been secured, and an
nOunced that they would sing No. 274.
Imagine the peoples surprise when on
reaching the second verse, they found
themselves singing. HaTk, the Heavenly
angels sing, Johnson's pills are just the
thing; Angelic voices meek and mild
two for man and one for child"

History Reports Itself.

1t is intimated, that it is prob
able that Josesp E. Davies will he
given the portfolio as postmaster
general in the cabinet of President
elect Wilson. 1t would be an
honor worthily bestowed upon a
man who would reflect honor upon
the administration and be very
gratifying to the friends of Mr..
Davies in Watertown where he was
born and lived for many years and
to the thousands of friends which
he has made since his removal to
Madison about four years ago.
The few in this city who could see
no merit in Mr.. Davies when he re-
sided here, will no doubt arrive at
the conclusion, that a man is not
without honor except IN his own
country.

Our ambassador to Great Bit
tain, one WhiteIaw Reid, in re-
cent lecture before the University
of Wales SO far fyrgot his loyalty
to one of the of the fathers of our
Republic, to indulge in a partisan
derogatory criticism of Thomas
] Jefferson, one of the signers of the
Declaration of independence.
Never has this country had a rep
resentative at any foreign court so
far removed from the spirit of pat
riotism of the people of this coun-
~ as Mr.. Reid, nor one, who has
conformed more to the ways of ar
istocracy. The election of Wood
row Wilson to the presidency was
good thing in one respect; the re-
call of Reid and the appointment
as a successor of a true, loyal, pat
riotic American.

The FOOlishneSS of Gen. Wood.

Recently, at a banquet in Phila-
delphia Ma;or-General Leonard
Wood, is rported to have said that
the reason why the United States
is the most lawless nation in the
world, is that its citizens lack mill
tary training. 1t will be remem-
bered, that prior to the Spanish
American war, Gen. Wood was a
private citizen and that Theodore
Roosevelt jumped him over men
who had served in the regular army
for years, which may account in
some degrees, for his lawlessness
with the existing conditions in this
country. He probably has not read
history and kept himself posted in
regard to prevailing lawlessness
elsewhere. The idea that a mill
tary training ma kes men more law
abiding is the veriest rot. The
church and school are the influence
that make for good citizenship and
the money squandered for the
maintainace of large military estab-
lishments is not consonant with the
spirit of the age when brotherly
love should influence in their con-
duct toward each other. The money
spent in this country to maintain,
the army and navy, if distributed
where most need, would obviate the
necessity for military training and
if United States minded their own
business and retired from the far
east.

Give them an Object Lesson.

Underwood, chairman of the ways
and means committee in the lower
branch Of congress is right in his
determination at the approaching
session of congress to insist upon
the reduction of the tariff to a rev.
enue basis, eliminate every protec-
tive feature of the present tariff.
That is, what the democrats promis-
ed the people in their last national
platform and they will have a ma
iority IN both branches OF congress
with a democratic free trade presi-
dent. They would be monumental
liars, if they do not give the people
what they promised in their plat
form. They should take the tariff
off of every product commodity and
which contributes to the high cost
of living for the benefit of the pro-
duclng class and everything that
has made trusts and monoPolies
possible, including tobacco and
manufactured products of tobacco.
The past ten years or more, the
people have been to prosperous
and labor of all kinds received
high wages. What the people need
is setback, just to convince them
that the democracy is interested
in their welfare and prosperity. An
object lesson that they can see with
their mouths, and learn wisdom
from adversely and leanness.

THOUGHTS BY THE WAY

This claim, that the high cost of
living is due to the action of COM
mission men in the cities who buy
farm products at prices which they
control by combinations and then
hold the same until they can sell al
exorbitant prices to the consumers.
The producers are not benefited to
any marked extent, but trusts, by
the operations of a squeeze, &C
