Compound Interest
Has Earned Mora Ihal Speculation.

If you don't believe that compound interest has earned more money than speculation call and inquire or write to this bank, where money at interest is better than high-grade stocks or bonds. It earns as much as safe se- curities, and the value of the principal never huctuates; your money is d. ways worth 100 cents on the dollar, and your funds are always available.

legislative Battle on in Earnest

With the filing of the petitions of candidates for
the house. the senate for governor and other state
officers at Springfield February g. the primary
campaign of 1912 opened in earnest. About $50
candidates have filed for the house of representatives
rather smaller number than usual. The filing time
will not be concluded until the ninth of March, and
there will be hundreds of candidates who will come
into the field before that time
Old Members Drop Out.
large number of old members of the legislature
have dropped out and not filing petitions for
nomination. Among those of the best men
who served the of Illinois in the capacity of
legislators Sacrifices have to be made by these men
to go to the legislature, and great many good men
have been driven out of the political field by the
pense of the campaign and the necessary sacrifice in
the way of time and business, that running for the
legislature entails. The good people of the state
should realize these things and the aid of the
who have stood for decent things and help them
carry the burdens of their campaigns. Again and
again members of the legislature and candidates for
the legislature have to and told of the offers
of the liquor interests to pay their campaign expenses
and bear all the financial burdens of their candidacy.

ruptng political AFFAIRS ana 1t is an obstacle that
we who fight the temperance side, have to meet in
every successive legislative campaign. The decent
citizens of the should in way other make
up for that deficiency the temperance side by work
in behalf of the candidates who stand right.
One of the dangers in the present legislative
campaign is the division of temperance voters. Thou
sands of voters do not understand why local
option candidate is not just as good another, and
why it isn't just good to support one another
The trouble is they do not understand the workings
of the primary law It be put very plainly If the
temperance element in given senatorial district
supports three candidates for the house. while the liquor
element supports but it plain to that the
perance vote is divided into three parts, while the
liquor vote is all cast for the one, and that one has
three times good chance of nomination any
OF the three local option candidates in question.
In this present campaign good local option
men are aiding the liquor plans and liquor campaign
by forcing themselves candidates upon the local
option people. If candidate thoroughly favors the
local option and that his candidacy stand
ing in the way of it's success, he ought to withdraw
when given understand that his candidacy is hinder
ing rather than helping.
Furthermore, the local option voters of district
should stand for the local option candidate who has the
best chance of nomination, and not waste votes on
anybody else. Have done with foo1ishness and chids
play LAST your VOTES Wnere they Will count the
for the things you believe in If you believe in this
cause, let your vote say in the strongest and
practical way. When the endorsements of the Anti
Saloon League appear, stand for the men who are en-
dorsed- and for nobody else.
We have good many times said that there is no
royal road to the winning of this fight; that it will
take hard work and that victory will not come except
by thorough and definite organization methods In
your work in your precinct and school district do not
be content with merely making up list of the voters
and sending to headquarters; see the voters ind
vldualy, ascertain their stand on the local option
question: present the arguments for county option urge
them to stand for the who are right and then see
the voters personally and get them to the ninth

means that you must spend some time and some effort
and some nervous energy in personal political work
but it is the only thing to do to win the feht We
might as we'll make up minds resolve to do the
thing in the way that will win. There is no use in
trying to do it any other way Precious time is lost in

GERS are telling a story today OF how
some OF Brig Gen. James Aliens
aeronautical lieutenants gave a sny
and blushing young lady lessons in
now to distinguish a biplane from
monoplane, and found they had an
unusually apt pupil on their hands
The young lady in question called
at Brig Gen Aliens office late last
week and ASKED ii it would be too
much trouble for some Of the ON
GERS to explain TO her what the army
was doing in aviation. She wanted
to write an article on the subJec,
and wished to have everything nice
and accurate.
Trouble? Certainly not. the
young officers hastened to eXclaim.
Nothing would be more delightful
than to explain to their visitor all
about aviation, they thought for
army aviators have a certain Just
pride in the name even though they
do not get a chance actually to fly.
They explained many points of the
aeroplane TO their visitor and then
Brig Gen. Allen himself began to
tell III the Simplest words how aYia-
ton in this country had really reach
Ell a practical stage and how the
time would soon some when persons
would own aeroplanes. Just as they
own automobiles and think nothing

Fruits Ripened by Drug vapors.

Horticulturists have for some time
been experimenting on the effects to
be obtained by subjecting plants to
the vapor of ether, chloroform and
other volatile substances. They have
found that the growth Of many fruits
and flowers can be forced by this
method and have obtained particularly
striking results with lilacs, which they
have thus been able readily to obtain
In winter. An American agriculturist
has experimental more particularly In
the effect OF these and other sub
stances on the ripening OF fruit. His
observations have shown that In the
majority of cases the more volatile
the substance to which the plant is
treated the more rapid is the ripening
In forcing the ripeniDg OF dates, for
instance, he found that the best re
suits were obtained when he employed
acetic, proprionic, Tactic or salicylis
acid. Heat powerfully stimulates the
ripening process and one OF the pecui
iarities OF fruits thus forced to ma
turity Is that they are generally fount
to keep better than those which hav'
ripened naturally.
