Disease Due to Germs

a good big dose or two of Podophyllin May Apple Root) It would gripe- it would make you sick as a horse but it brought the Bile from the liver every time.
 Nowadays such strenuous remedies are taboo. But nothing has ever re- placed this Old-time- tried remedy. Science has been working for years to take the gripe and nausea out of Podophyllin and now in PoDoLax you have the old bile-staring power of Podophyllin without the gripe and nausea.
 PoDoLax is a Podophyllin formula that tastes good-that releases the bile gently-without annoyance or loss of time. "PoDo" from Podophyl- lin--"LaX" from Laxative. PoDoLaX is the name-the only name-so ac- cept no substitute.

STOP, LOOK, LISTEN.

The safety first'' policy
which has been adopted by all
railroads in the United States IS
doing much to lessen the num-
Der of accidents and going a
long way in protecting human
life. But in order that railroads
successfully continue this policy
thev must have the cooperation
Of everyone, because more than
one-half of the accidents are due
to carelessness on the part of
those injured, rather than the
railroad.
The following figures recently
compiled, gives one fair idea Of
this:
Three thousand six hundred
automobiles were observed dur
ing a period of one week while
crossing tracks of the South
western Railroad in FL Paso.
27o7 Cor so per cent? of the driv-
ers If these automobiles did not
look in either direction. $40
Cor II per cent? looked only in
one direction, and only so (or 2
per cent? took the precaution to
New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1914-07-25

look both yays before crossing
the tracks. 296 of the number
who looked in neither direction
crossed at a speed greater than
20 miles per hour and 3 of the
same number saw the fagmaa
and crossed the traks disregard
ing his signals.
Three hundred persons were
killed and $50 injured while
driving automobiles over railroad
crossings in the United States
during the two years ending
June 30th, 1912. This because
di> ers did not stop, hook, listen.
Owing to the large increase IN
number of automobiles in use
during the past two years, the
fatality is probably greater than
during the two years ending
June Both. 1912.-L. C. Times.

THOSE HAPPY ROOSEVELT
DAYS.

We referred some days ago to
Mr. Roosevelt S supreme etfront-
cry in attempting to pan the VIII
son administration for bringing
hard times with its reduction OF
the tariff when the bitterest and
most enduring panic since the
war was inaugurated under Mr..
Roosevelt's own administration,
when not dent had yet been
made in the high protection wall
which shut us in from the rest OF
the world.
The JohnstOwn, Pa, Democrat,
working from the same basis, has
picked at random from the press
dispatches of the closing days of
the Co.onel's administration some
news items which show the bust
ness and industrial conditions
then existing.
| Here are some of them:
More than 1000 men march to
City Hall at Detroit and demand
work.-Januarv %, 1908.
Chicago Federation Of Labor
estimates the total number of UNI
employed men in Chicago at 1O0,-
600 and issues warning to all
craftsmen to keep away from the
city.-February II. 1908.
New York city government
urged by Central Federal Labor
Union to let subway contracts to
furnish work for 100000 unem-
ployed men.-March Is, 1908.
One hundred thousand men
march through the streets of New
York singing the Marseilles;
speakers preach revolution and
demand work bomb thrown at
police by an4rchists.-March 20,
1908.
More than 200 Bulgarians petit
ton Governor of Colorado for
employment or for aid to return
to Bulgaria.-March 20, 1908.
One thousand foreigners march
toward Philadelphia City Hall,
demanding work; a riot, three po-
liceman shot; fourteen marchers
arrested; hundreds beaten by
mounted Probationary ~,
1908.
Labor unions report $4,000 idle
men in the Kensington Pa dis
! trict.-Februarv 10, 1908.
Unemployed in San Francisco
form a league and demand the
issue Of $23, 100000 in bonds to
aid unemployed.-March q,
F: 1908.
One thousand Hungarians
,, march through the rain to receive
a loaf of bread each at Toledo
! March %, 1903. T.
At Camden, N. j., riot follows
application of 1900 men for 300
jobs advertised by the Joseph
Campbell Company.-August ~,
1908.
Loan Of 100000 to provide
funds for public work asked by
city of Philadelphia for unem:
ployed; race riot followed dem
onstration of unemployed; 1tal-
! ians attacked by other nationali-
ties.-March IS, 1908.
These items give only a faint
impression of the breadth and
depth of the depression Of the
business and industries of the
country in the last Of the seven
Roosevelt years.
Those were, indeed. the happy
Roosevelt days Has anybody
forgotten them? Does anyone
want to see them return =

NEW STRANGE STORY
OF THE HORROR OF WAR.

The following graphic story of the
use of a high-power explosive, some
times called Turpinite, about which
little is known but the deadly effect
CT which in the present war has Gre
ated cO4sternation on both sides of
the Atlantic, is taken from a London
newspaper:
For a fortnight past several war
correspondents whose headquarters
are in Paris have limited darkly that
the French had no fear OF the terrible
siege guns which Germany had pre-
pared in secret, and with which they
reduced Namur in "a hours instead
Of three months it was thought the
city would hold out. Paris, it was
stated, would be defended by an arm
more secret and even more terrible.
A clue to this peril to the German
advance is given by the Paris CORE
spondent of the Daily Telegraph. He
writes:
There have been rumors before
OF the terrible explosive which N.
Turpin, the inventor of Melinite, had
placed at the service of France. 1t
had been tried once near ChaIons, so
it was said, on a flock of sheep. "A
shell charged with the new explosive
burst above them. The smoke cleared
away. Of the 400 sheep 400 were
dead. 1t a been used now, l learn,
in the bitter earnest of var
"A friend of mine, a member of
the American branch of the Red Cross,
Returned to Paris on Thursday af-
ternOon from a visit to the trenches
around Meaux, whittier he had gone
with an ambulance to bring in the
wounded. The strange horror of what
lie had seen there was still in his eyes.
"'"I saw" he said, "the German
trenches as the French guns left them.
They were filled with the dead, but
with dead in such postures as the
world has never seen since the De-
~strOying Angel passed above the Phil
istine camp in that avenging night Of
Scripture. 1t was as though some
blight from heaven had fallen upon
them. There they stood in line, rifles
to shoulder, a silent company of
ghosts in the gray light of dawn. I
approached them.
"'"There was no horror in their
faces, no agony of surprise even
OnAy over Luem was a him OF line
grayish powder. You would have
said that they had travelled a long and
dusty road. I have seen men before
who had died of asphyxiation, but
there was no sign of the agonizing
struggle for breath. 1t was if a deep
and sudden sleep had overtaken them
only their eyes were open. They
might have been there for all eterni-
ty thus, their rifles at rest. l felt that
il I touched them they would crumble
into dust. Never have 1 seen any
thing more terrible than these erect,
silent figures in the chill DAWN"

WAR is ONLY BEGINNING
SAYS FORMER PRESIDENT.

Paris, Oct.-The war is only be-
ginning in the opinion of Armand
FaIlieres, ~ex-president of France. In
an interview published by the F1ance
de Bordeaux today and transmitted
from Bordeaux by the Havas agency,
NJ. Fallieres says:
Months and months will be re-
CURED to overcome the military pow
er of the enemy, but these does not
produce encouragement in France.
Our country has acquired the new
virtue of constancy in effort.
I'VE shall certainly be victorious
for, without reckoning our ardent pa
triotism and material resources, we
have on our side Russia and Great
Britain, with their strength and ten
acity, and Belgium as well as Servia,
and, finally, we possess the moral
support of entire humanity which
loves the ideal of liberty.
"The right will not fall, and France
will not perish. Should we sacrifice.
our last man or should we be COM.
PEELED to call for last reserves, 1 am
ready to go. There is only one mot
to-absolute confidence"

DANIELS LAUDS PEACE
TREATIES JUST ADOPTED

Washington, 'Oct.-Winter's Ratifi-
cation of new peace commission trea-
ties between the United States and
twenty-six other nations was held as
Fthe browning act of this decade of
human effort" by Josephus Daniels,
secretary of the navy, in q campaign
speech here tonight.
81 never knew of a fight between
two men if they let a day Or a week
elapse before proceeding to get phys
ical satisfaction after their quarrel"
Mr.. Daniels said.
'Now, that we have these treaties
with these nations, great and small,
the possibility of war is reduced to a
minimum; it is a safe prophecy that
nobody living today will see the day
when these countries engage in war
with the United States.
Public opinion is the great world
lever of today and in the fear which
must elapse before a declaration of
war, public opinion would crystalize
against war and prevent a conflict.
Next year will see an increase IN
peace traties to include every civilized
country. Arbitration has failed be-
cause it is compulsory"
