Bosses In All Parties

Apparently all parties have bosses, but
why are the leaders of the Republican
party looked upon as menace to the
country more than those of any other?
Surely no party ever had more arbi-
trary "boss". to use the Clippers own
phrase than the Progressive party.
What is the use of this foolish, foolish
talk of one political party claiming the
other party is run by bosses? There
never has been political party in exist
ence, and there never will be one, which
is not ruled by the dominant charac ers
of that party. 1t is not alone in politics
that the people are ruled by bosses in
every organization in the world, religious
political and industrial, there are a certain
few who rule the majority, whether they
are the most capable and best ones, we
do not undertake to say, but they are the
progressive and aggressive ones, they
have the stronger personality, and The
wit and energy to execute their plans,
while the weaklings sit by and whine
that they are ruled by bosses, which is
the best proof that they are not capable
of ruling themselves. Oh, shucks, find a
new grievance against the Republicans;

Building Up the Community
bellows Falls Times

The dollars spent with the home mer-
chant are the dollars that help to build
up the community. Nobody ever heard
of mail order house in distant city
making contribution for the improve
ment of this town. The merchant in the
city pays nothing toward the support of
the school in which our children are edu-
Gated, nor for the support of the churches
in which our people worship. In fact,
the dollar sent to the merchant in the
big city is gone forever so far as any
good to our community is concerned.
Is it fair to deprive the home merchant
of your cash trade and thus deprive the
community of the benefits to be derived
from keeping this money at homer Civic
pride is a virtue to which that citizen
can not rightfully lay claim who makes a
practice OF sending away from home for
his purchases just for the sake Of saving
a few pennies on each.

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
Drinking Water.

Water is essential to good
health, and yet some persons do
not seem to realize that fact.
The quantity of liquid one should
drink in day depends upon a
persons constitution, the amount
of exercise he takes, the kind of
food he eats, the weather and
many other conditions. But the
average man needs from three
and half to four pints of fluid
per day. OF this he gets at least
a pint in his solid food, so there
remain from two and half to
three pints to be drunk. Women
need less and children more. 1t
is a good rule to allow children
to drink all they want.

Rheumatism depends on an acid

acid gets into the blood through
