the other half thought it was
grand? Let's see, that was
back in the year SO, and all
Of the folks were a1ame. You
rememper the measure? Well,
neither do we-for the country
went son just the same.
Now, isn't the bills that the
orators spring, down there in
our national halls, it isn't re-
forms that the orators sing and
shout to the capitol walls that
make us or break us-that isn't
the prize we seek in the national
game; the Congress adjourns Or
the orator dies-but the country
goes on just the same.
What's the use of us getting
,.xcited like that when their cli-
max the orators reach, when
they shout insurrection, or
proudly stand pat in a star
,pangled- bannery speech? That
this bill or that will bring sor-
row or woe the orators loudly
may claim, but Congresses come
and Congresses go-but the coun
try goes on just the same.
Let US plow up the field, let us
put in the wheat, let us start up
the engine a spell, let us hang out
our signboard well over the
street and be ready to buy and
to sell. Let us cut out the yawp,
let us cut out the yelp, let us cut
out the pessimist game: let us
get down to busines-that's all
that will help the country go on
Just the same.

The Folly of Getting Worked Up

About every SO often a bill
is turned loose in Congress,
III Senate or House, some tariff
to raise or some tariff to re-
duce or some budding reform
er to douse; and then we stand
up on our hind legs and let
out a yell like a fan at a game
and we swear and we hoot and
we shout and we sweat-but
the country goes on just the
same.
Did you ever recall it has
always been since George
Washington sat in the chair?
That half of the people see
nothing but woe in the bills
that our statesmen prepare.
while another contingent that's
equally vast is clapping its.
hands in acclaim? Then the
bill is defeated or bill is passed
but the country goes on Just
the same.
You remember the bill that
the Democrats had that the
Wings knew would ruin the
land? How half Of the people

The Home Town

People seldom stop to con-
slider how much their town
means to them. They take it
for too much granted, and in
counting up their blessings
make a superficial inventory
that fails to credit the source
from which many Of their
dearest benefits flow. It is easy
to overlook the home town in
summing up the sources of
ones happiness because the
town is such large, alien
veloping. thing-so large, in
fact, that it's hard to see
and the citizen blindly draws
sustenance from it like an in
fant from its mother. Traced
to their source most of life's
blessings will be found to have
their root in that aggregation
of human beings and human
interests known as a town.
The town is the unit of all
modern civilization confers its
benefits. There is scarcely a
phase of civilization that does
not find direct and specific
expression in the life and or
ganization of a town that is
large enough to have a school,
a courthouse, a library, a bank,
a mill or factory, a church, a
water-works, a brass band, a
newspaper and railroad sta
ton. Representing education,
jurisprudence, literature, fin
ance, industry, religion, hy-
giene, art, and the speedy dis
tribution of intelligence and
commodities, these institutions
express all that is highest and
best in human achievement.
If civilization is good, then the
home town is good, and the
citizens should be proud and
thankful Of it. Instead Of cast
ing wondering and envious
glances at a distant New York,
let us glow with pride for our
own little city, realizing that
the difference is only one Of
degree and not of kind.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine out of ten
cases are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
