WHAT WE HAVE TO FEAR MOST

There is a good deal of talk about
ournational defense, and some of the
jingoes are insisting that we would
our national defense, and some of the
invasion by a foreign foe. There is no
great danger of a military invasion of
the United States while thousands of
miles of water lie between us and a
possible enemy.
What we have to fear most is the
invasion of our splendid home market
by the products of low-priced labor
abroad and the consequent paralysis of
our industries. The balance of trade is
against us with a number of countries
like England, Australia, Brazil and Ar
g~entina, simply because we have taken
down the bars of the Tariff. All are in
States. The natural consequence is
that in many lines of trade our facto-
ries canno compete, so the output is
lessened and men laid off. 1t is true
that at present some manufactures
here are stimulated by the demand
abroad for war supplies, and the Dem
ocrats are shouting about the great
commercial revival.
There is a great demand abroad for
foodstuffs toe; but the American farm
er is smart enough to know the reason,
and he knows enough about the Under
wood Tariff to be utterly disgusted
with it. The law was heralded as a
cure for the high cost of living; but
the farmers know that it was a direet
slap for them, and but for the war
they would be feeling it's evil effects
far worse than they do. The farmers
generally expressed their opinion of
the Tariff at the last election.-Wells-
boro (Pa.) Agitator.

FIRST DOSE ENDS INDIGESTION,
HEARTBURN, OR GAS ON
STOMACH

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from Indi-
.gestion, dyspepsia, or out-of-order
stomach is merely a matter of how
soon you begin taking Tonoline Tabs.
People with weak stomachs should
take Tonoline Tablets occasionally,
and there will be no more indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead n the
stomach, no heartburn, sour risings,
gas on stomach, or belching of undi-
gested food, headaches, dizziness or
sick stomach; and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. All these
symptoms resulting from a sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved five minutes after
taking Tonoline Tablets.
Go to your druggist and get a 81
box of Tonoline Tablets and you will
always go to the table with a hearty
appetite, and what you eat viii taste
good, because your stomach and mites
tines will be clean and fresh, and you
will know there are not going to be
any more bad nights end miserable
days for you. Tonoline Tabs freshen
you and make you feel like life is
worth living.
Tonoline Tablets cost $1.00 for a so
treatment. At druggists or

LEGISLATIVE L

Although the legislature was in SEES
sion for only about three days before
adjourning until Monday, a number of
bills were introduced in each house,
al least two of which are Of more than
passing interest.
In the house, Assemblyman Beason
introduced a measure to repeal the
present primary law, going back to
the old convention system. At the
time of the primaries. voters will be
allowed to express a preference for
senator, representative in Congress,
governor, state senate and assembly
man. While the text Of the bill is not
at hand and for that reason it can not
be discussed intelligently, there is no
doubt but what the people OF the state
viii be satisfied with anything in rea-
son in this respect rather than con-
tinue under the present primary law.
Without going deeply into the merits
and dement's of the law now in force,
it will suffice to say that the expense
incurred makes it impractieable.
An apportionment bill was also in
troduced in the assembly, which al
lows one senator from each county and
from one to seven members of the as
sembly, Washoe being the only county
allowed the maximum representation.
The people of the state are practically
a unit in demanding that the represen-
tation be cut down. Whether or no
this bill goes far enough in that direc-
tion will no doubt be brought out in
the discussion that viii follow.

IDENTIFYING THE DEAD.

From the American Boy.
When a German soldier falls in
battle he is identified by little metal
disc which he carries. This disc bears
a number, and this number is tele-
graphed to Berlin. There the sol
dier's name is determined. This sys-
tenn is as effective as everything else
connected with the German army.
The British use an aluminium disc
that contains, besides marks of iden-
tificatiOn, the soldiers church aftilia-
ton The Japanese system is SINH
lar. each soldier wearing three discs,
one around his neck, another on his
belt, and the third in his boot. The
Russians wear a numbered badge,
which at the same time serves as a
charm, being formally blessed by the
priests.
The United States army uses a
cloth tab woven into the shoulder
strap of the tunic. The French use
Identification cards stitched inside
the tunic. The French once made use
of metal identification badges, but
these proved an irresistible attrac-
ton to the savages whom the French
faced in Africa, so the cards were
substituted. Austria still uses a
badge of gunmetal in the form OF d
locket with parchment leaves inside.

In the January American Magazine
appears an account of new inven-
ton by which moving pictures are
now taken under the sea. A new
world is thus opened to oceanOgraph-
ers and treasure seekers by this in
vention, which is in actual use. The
device for going down into the sea
was made by Charles Williamson, a
sea captain of Norfolk, Va, and his
two sons conceived the idea of using
the device as a means of taking NOV
ing pictures. The article describes
just how moving pictures have been
taken of sharks and other sea life.
The Williamsons claim that with the
invention it will be possible to re-
cover lost treasures from the bot
tom of the sea. An account of these

The mysterious disappearance of
Frank L. Finch, publisher of the Ar
apahoe Herald, at Littleton, Colo,
more than a year ago has at length
been cleared up. After a search last
ing nearly a year he was found at
the railroad station in Omaha few
days ago by his brother, Clarence O..
Finch, and taken to his home in Colo
RADIO, where he is undergoing medical
treatment, which it is hoped will re-
store him to his normal mental condi-
ton. Finch's case is one of the most
peculiar that has been brought to
public attention.
One day in September, 1913, Mr..
Finch walked out of the Arapahoe
Herald office, telling the force as he
left that he would be back in a min
ute"
He left a happy home with a wife
and two lovely children, a host CT
friends, a prosperous business and a
bank account, and completely disap-
peared.
Although a countrywide search
was instituted by his relatives and
friends and the newspapers publish
ed articles about him and printed his
picture no trace of the missing man
was found.
About two weeks after Finch's dis
appearance, in response to a query
for a linotype operator addressed to a
Great Bend paper, F. S. O'Dell ar
rived in Lyons, Kan, and went to
work in the Republican office. He
was a careful workman and vaIua-
BILE man about the office. He was we'll
educated. He had travelled from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, from Van
couver to Florida.
He said he had at one time been
