writes as follows: 81 suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during

while, and could not walk anywhere al

If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman'S tonic. 1t has k-sped
more than a million women, in its so
years Of wonderful success, and should

Gagging At the Pill.

The Republican press, more es-
pecially that of the Eastern,
States, which enjoyed the pro-
lection of their manufactures and
the use of cheap imported labor
under the Republican tariff, find
the pill of present prosperity hard
to swallow.
The Philadelphia Evening Tele-
graph says:
"This country has never had
any real prosperity under Demo-
cratic tariff rates, and it never
can have any as long as the pre-
sent unavoidable theories of that
party prevail. There will be
prosperity again, a prosperity
that will not depend upon war
orders, but will be based on the
solid industrial policies of the
Republican party translated into
legislation"
The "solid Industrial policies of
the Republican party" caused its
defeat, and the party's well known
record for adherence to that policy
for the benefit of a few industries
and a small proportion of the
population, and at the expense of
the larger portion is so well known
that the opportunity for the re-
establishment of a Republican
tariff is remote.
The Republican party has hoped
for hard times; has talked hard
times; has prophesied hard times,
and now seeks to explain good
times in such a manner as to
make party capital. 1t cannot be
done. Those who reckon upon a
return of the conditions which
caused the Republicans to lose
power are reckoning without their
former host of voters. Courier

New York, Nov.-: Because
every man Of their less than ten
thousand is absolutely needed at
his post at home or abroad, the
United States Marine Crops will
not be represented at this years
military show at Madison Square
Garden.
The army and navy will be re-
presented as usual, but the little
Marine Crops, which is neither of
these, and yet both, cannot af-
ford to send even a squad to the
1915 tournament.
The soldiers of the sea, I"
1921 strong by law, form the
first line of the national mobile
defence, and the navy yards Of
the United States have been al
most stripped of Marines to
furnish the landing forces for
ships, the expeditionary forces
for Haiti, the legation guards at
Peking, China, and Managua,
Nicaragua, as well as manning
the permanent frontier defense
posts at Guantanamo, Cuba, the
Philippines, Guam, and the Ha-
waiian Islands.
Congress, at its next session,
will be asked to increase the
Marine Crops by 1900 officers anG
men, and it is believed that the
request has strong backing ii
the ranks of the security leagues
who wish to see the first line oi
defense strengthened so as to in
sure an adequate number of Mar
ines at home in case of necessity

Community Spirit.

Did you ever notice that in
some communities every thing
that is put on foot dies off almost
at once while in other communi-
ties everything that starts makes
a success? And had you further
observed that the failures occur
most frequently in the communi-
ties that appear the most favor.
ed? The difference lies in the
difference in the community spir-
it.
A few weeks ago | visited my
old home Frenchburg after be-
ing away for years,eand | was
agreeably surprised at the evil
dences of the community spirit |
found there. Frenchburg is a
small village, in section that is
not blessed by abundant natural
advantages, but it has the COM
munity spirit, and as a result if
ahead of of it's larger and more
prosperous neighbor towns in
many of the desireable things.
Frenchburg has a school. Not
merely a school in name, but a
school in reality. A school with
a purpose and forceful faculty.
You may say that this is not a
public school; that it is a denom-
national school built by outsid-
ers, and ask where the communi-
ty spirit comes in. 1t is true
that the United Presbyterians
furnished the money to erect the
thirty thousand dollar building
and FURNISHES the money to. pay
the teachers, but the community
spirit of the people invited them,
aided them in the building and
has promptly and effectively sat
on and "squelched" every at
tempt of self-seeking individuals
to injure the school. And the
community is reaping the bene-
fits by having a ten months free
school with an adequate corps of
teachers, a magnificent building
and all needful school room ac-
cessories, and in addition, free
text book in the grades and nom.
inal rental for Books in the high
school.

The mixture should be sprinkled care
