THE VETERANS DAY

Memorial Day is in memory of
those who fought in our country
wars. The flag they fought for is a
builder of patriotism and inspires the
finer sentiments for those who have
made this nation what it is. Memoir
ial Day is the day when garlands are
laid upon those who sleep and it is the
day on which we salute those who live.
1t is day for the veterans because
they met one another first at the call of
Lincoln. They marched with Grant,
they stood with Thomas and they
went with Sherman to the sea. Those
who live have memories overfowing
with the adventures Of those distant
days which have left an everlasting
impress on the nations history. AL
ways give passing thought to those
who fought when the day comes around
and express the hope that never again
shall there be such war.

They should see that with our ever
increasing population which must be
clothed and fed, the farmer is daily
growing in economic Importance and his
remuneration increasing. They should
learn that the farmers are now the
largest and wealthiest class of citizens
in America and their political and
financial Importance is increasing.
First show the boys all these things and
then compare them with the drudgery
and brain stunning work which must be
done by the average city man and sthen
give them financial interest in the
business and you will not have to
keep the boys on the farm. They
will do their own keeping" if they are
adapted to farm life and, in later years,
they will be able to keep you on
the farm also.

A STOMACH TONIC

There is form of indigestion called
"atonic" dyspepsia Atomic means lack
of tone" 1t is probably the most COM
mon form of indigestion but not much is
heard about it because people are in
clined to group ali forms of dyspepsia as
stomach trouble and the doctors let il
go at that.
Lack of tone in the digestive organs
means that the stomach is no longer able
to do it's work as nature intended. The
nerves that control it are weak, the
glands that supply the digestive fluids
are not working properly. Gas on the
stomach, sour risings in the throat and
constipation result. The cause of the
trouble is thin blood. Stomach, nerves
and glands are all dependent on the
blood and when it gets thin and watery
they are at once weakened. DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills act directly on the
blood and the first response from the
stomach is a better appetite, freedom
from distress after eating and an increase
in ambition and energy generally. Try
DR.. Williams Pink Pills as a stomach
tonic and see how your general health
improves.
A diet book, "What to Eat and How
TO Eat will be sent free on request by
the DR.. Williams Medicine Co., Schen-
ectady, N. Y. Every druggist sells DR..
Williams Pink Pills.

TnEEvIL RETURNS TO THE DOER

The old Bible says that the way of the
transgressor is hard. Although preach
ers preach from the text and news
papers reveal the evil ways of the
wrong doer, every day brings forth new
names of those who have failed to
walk in the straight and narrow way.
Sometimes it takes long time to
bring the evil one to time but the
'transgressor, is found out sooner or
later. The dynamite violaters one by
one have been brought to their penalty.
DR.. Felke must pay fine of $10,0
and go to Leavenworth for two years
because the government was cheated
out of the lawful oleomargerine reve-
nue., and Charles Becker must suffer the
extreme penalty, being charged with
the cause of the death of Herman
Rosenthal in New York. Cotton once
said, RATS and conquerors must ex-
pect no mercy from mankind in mis-
fortune Shakespeare teaches that
the evil returns to the doer and Mabeth
found this to be true Men in high
crime, even those known the world
over as in the New Haven deal, cannot
avoid publicity and the penalties laid
down in the statutes.

ng that he had simply suppressed the
stomach of his patient, joining the end
of the large intestine to the oesophagus,
and leaving the process of digestion to
be performed in the intestine itself.
Nevertheless, the moral we deduce is
good, though the sensational yarn which
suggested tits false. Therefore, it is
allowed to stand. Anyhow, surgeons
will do as wonderful things some day,
and fools who are their benefciaries
will act as absurdly as did this fictitious
individual. Advocate.

Gable dispatches from Paris announc-
ed that Frenchman's stomach was
removed and the stomach of an anthro-
poid ape substituted for it. This re-
markable operation was said to be the
first of it's kind and the announcement
of its performance excited intense in
terest in France. The patient in uues-
ton was farmer, twenty years
of age, whose stomach had become
worthless. The surgeon was said to
have opened the mans abdomen and,
tying the great arteries as he proceeded,
cut out the useless stomach, inserting
in it's place the stomach of the ape and
nicely stitching up the connections.
After twenty-five days the cure was
said to be complete. The young far
mer left the hospital. But he imme-
diately did that which no anthropoid
ape would ever dream of doing. He
went on spree, filled up his new stom-
ach with Intoxicating liquors, and made
himself ridiculous in a variety of ways.
1t will always be a question whether
is wise to equip fools with larger
opportunities for folly. The wisdom of
working miracles by which vision is
restored to eyes which will afterwards
be used for bad purposes. or securing
activity to diseased limbs which will
hencforth walk in the ways Of I'M
righteous, may be doubted. The re-
sponsibility of all this, however, rests
not with the wonder worker who by the
aid Of science does such strange and I'M
pressive things for our race, but with
the individual who, having obtained a
finer equipment is so absurd as to use
it for base ends.

been in type few hours the surgeon

BOYS ON THE FARM.

Kansas Farmer: In the first place
the idea is wrong. Don't keep the boys
on the farm and don't try to do so.
Sounds startling, doesn't it? But
remember that there are a lot of the
boys who don't. belong on the farm.
Boys who will make failure in life if
they are kept there and who should
be allowed to get away from it as
soon as they are able. Don't misun-
derstand. These boys should first
be shown that there are greater pos
sibilities for them on the farm than in
any other walk of life. They should
be shown that the opportunities for
perfect development in physical,
mental and moral life are greater
on the farm than elsewhere; that the
life of the farmer can be made more
full, more perfect and more enjoyable
than that which falls to the lot of
most men. They should learn that a
man cannot know too much to be a
farmer and that he can generally use all
the knowledge he has in his daily work.

The toll of tuberculosis is claiming
