May Exhibit at Exposition.

The Postmaster General is considering
the possibility of setting up the stamp
machine at the PanamaPacitic eXposi
ton at San Francisco, to demonstrate
the art of postage-stamp printing. This
would not deprive the bureau of the use
of the machine. as the stamps made for
exhibition purposes would be available
to fill its contract with the Post Office
Department.
The coiled stamps are now used entirely
for atfixng and vending stamp machines,
but the bureau of engraving and printing
contemplates. ultimately, the supplying
of all post offices with stamps in coils.
In the opinion of Director Ralph, the
coiled stamps are more compact, more
convenient and more sanitary than are
stamps in sheets.

Loss of Appetite.

Is the first signal of disorder
and decay. The usual loss of
appetite is often caused by func-
tional disturbances in the stom-
ach. The stomach fails to do the
work required. the appetite is
gone, and the body suffers from
lack of nourishment. Such a
stomach needs to be cleaned and
sweetened. Meritol Tonic Di-
gestive is made especially to as
sist the stomach to digest food,
and promote a healthy appetite.
This remedy is sold on our posi-
tive guarantee, and we ask you
to give it a trial. 1t is a genuine
tonic. Price $I.oo.

PRESIDENT WILSON

Fortunately" says the Her
aid, I'VE have at the head of the
Government at this critical time
man in whose calmness and
judgment we have as great con-
fdence as we have in his patriot
ism"
"Calmness and judgment. y
Great words, expressing great
qualities. In the terrible storm
of war that has burst over Eu-
rope Americans have new reason
to admire the sense and sanity
of their own Chief Magistrate.
Since autocracy deliberately
plunged civilization into blood,
we hear no more sneers at an
Administration that chose
"watchful waiting" in preference
to war. We hear no more eX-
pressions of contempt for the
Presidents idealism and for his
theories of service. These
theories are no longer the acad-
emic dreams of the schoolmas-
ter" In the light of the world
wide catastrophe of the last ten
days the most blatant lingo in
the United States would not ex-
change Woodrow Wilson for
any European statesman, and
the partisan bigots who profess
ed to be ashamed of their coun-
try have all been silenced by
events.
1t is very fine to prattlc about
"a vigorous foreign policy" but
conscience and sincerity and in
tegrity have their place in gov
eminent despite the Metternich
legend that still controls Euro
pean chancelleries. y
More than maps will be chang
cd by this conflict, and we our.
selves will be affected by it in
that are neither hnan-
cial nor commercial. New stan
dards of craftsmanship will be
established in this country as
the American people contemplate
the terrible results of personal
government and imperialistic
abroad.
TO the historian of fifty years
hence the fact that Woodrow
Wilson was President in this
crisis may seem no less provi-
Dental than the fact that Abra-
ham Lincoln was President when
the very life of the Union was
hanging in the balance.-New

have heretofore been favored. be-
cause Of the industries that have
been represented at hearings, but
