SENATOR HARDING's KEYNOTE SPEECH.


Sen Warren T. Hardings keynote speech before the
republican national convention while listening infinitely
better than reads far short arousing
thusasm usually accorded keynote addresses such
occasions It calculated be a harmony speech
yes. but such harmony talk lack
of it. which everyone knew TO exist savored much
of the insincere sound quite demagogic; noise
which the socaned progressves found no difficulty
recognizing.
Still Sen. Harding be credited with being a
keynoter with all the stereotyped
sophistres sandpat repubHcanism naturally he was
able both please the standpatters. He
found difficulty in bringing to their feet, at
his wi-or per scheduIe-and the Inconsistencies upon
which such successive demonstrations were made no
difference With breath could a wall,
high the sky around republic rendering us de-
sirably Sufficient ourselves" with
breath he could blow the wall over denying that we
could "liveth unto ourselves alone" whereupon the
standpatters would stand up and in both cases-the
turmoil seemingly being great the marking OF
distinctions. This is only specimen Straddlng
every conceivable fence is republican ideal this
year one needs only TO overhear leaders talk
among themselves gather their with
a non-partisan tariff board established issue
exists.
Yet. there does if may take Sen Harding as
republican party's word The issue republicans
plan TO present it, to consist Of an avalanche of
ceited assninity. The whole party appears to have
caught the Roosevelt spirit fitness for
things. Indeed. after hearing the Ohio senator one
need longer wonder Roosevelt educated in
the school of partsanship with Mr. Harding
should in his excessive have mistaken himself
for the party itself have proclaim him
self the of the whole political cosmos
Can you conceive of 1.-THE audacty Of a public
speaker admitting, for instance. the desirabiy of
tariff commission, and this plus the to suggest
that II be tied TO the protective principle? But Sen
Harding sprung nothing this bit of sophistry
Judge Quincy A. Myers keynoting the Indiana state
bit of foolshness. commission in other words with
out any powers TO "commsh" rather without any
discretionary powers. We believe this is about what
allied the tariff board appointed by Taft and af-
fords plenty of fer guessing sincerity of the
republicans on the tariff commission question now
However. Sen. Harding made a splendid success as
keynote His voice was excellent and his ges-
tures-just like that.
You could hear him all over the coliseum and guess
every minute what he going say next from what
had heard republican orators say a quarter Of a
century 1t a wonderful effort to reconvince
the country that the republicans alone freed the slaves
that the republicans alone Spain this west
hemisphere and that the republicans alone can save
as from being swallowed up by Europe, whether Eu-
rope swallow or not

is much more likely 10 commit sui
eide than bachelor.
But women who are single, spin
sters. Divorces or widows, seem to
find less worth living for than do
married ones.
Neither i'll health nor alcohol is
such a potent cause of suicide as
business losses. Even unfortunate
love affairs do not cause as much
WEAKNESS of lie as does loss of
money.
This is why there are few sui
cides committed on Saturday. Those
who have worried through the week
have received their pay. and the
strain is temporarily relieved. or, if
being pressed hard in business af-
fairs there is a day ON immunity
at hand in which something may
turn up.
Monday-black Mondays the
day when those faced by business
disaster seem most disposed to give
up the struggle.
The day when women find dom es-
tic troubles most unbearable is Sun
day And their commonest time
for suicide is between 9 and u in
the evening.
Though married women do not
give up u suicide as much as un-
married ones do. il looks as f the
husbands being around home for a
whole day contributes to the ten
dency.
Or perhaps the Saturday night
and Sunday drunk drives the wife
TO despair and death.
But who is there can analyze the
woe which drives women 70 take
refuge in death on the day that
should be the most peaceful Of all

and yet in about 80, 900 cases off,

period of three years. the suicide OF
men outnumber that OF women by

Grow Up Together, Says su-
perjntendent English.
MANY oMAHANs MIsUNDERsTAND

G.. H. English. superintendent or public
recreation, believes that playless city
cannot reach great things. on the thought
OF THE Gospel OF Play" Mr.. English
says:
Constructive public opinion starts It's
campaign with a deep and valiant BELIEF
in play In season and out of season II
breaches the gospel OF play-Bn ample op-
portunity OF wholesome pleasure for ev-
cry man. woman and child in every home,
store and factory in Omaha, and the
means OF enjoying Il to the fun at least
once every week. The gospel Of play IL
the beginning of wisdom in this whole
matter OF recreation.
MANY minds In Omaha have mlsunder-
stood or denied the Importance OF play,
and looked upon It as more or less per-
missible sin, rather than as natural
right. and beautiful expression OF the hu-
man spirit. This tragic mlsconception has
made our people slow In realizing our
obligation to the young people Of our city.
1t is well to believe in play, for the love
of 1t leaps up instinctively in every nor
NAL being. Whatever one does for the
pure love of It. that Is play. II is more
instructive than work and not a whit less
important.
Like PIayless Life.
"A playless city would be no more alb
normal than a playless life. Play is for
childhood the shining gate that opens
wide to life, to socis bility. endurance. CO.
operation. natural growth and the sub
ordination of ones own desires TO com
mon ends. It is we'll to believe in play.
for morality and play grow UP together
like Joyous children when play is spon-
taneous, unbought and clean. America be-
lieves I'm play, and Omaha as a city at
heart believes in play and has taken a
decided step forward in creating a rec
reational department
The question at issue Is the sort OF
play and in which she believes the sort Of
recreations which are to possess her lei
sure hours. These will shape her civic
character. Can she be led to believe COM
pletely in wholesome play? Constructive
public opinion sets itself to produce the
affirmative answer
t"Perhaps the most fundamental and en-
during. of, all solutions Of this problem
lies. in a city-wide adoption OF the gospel
OF wholesome play. in the full develop
,,ment OF comprehensive recreational
problem that will. be so far-reaching that
every man, woman or child who desires
wholesome recreation can crafty that
wish. Constructive public opinion begins
its crusade with the gospel Of play"

BLOOD TREATMENT

Scientists have discovered that the

piled with vegetation OF various kinds
that furnish the ingredients for max
ing a remedy for practically every all

roots, herbs and barks which Nature has
placed at the disposal of man are bet

eral medicines work dangerously on the
delicate parts of the system, especially
the stomach and bowels, by eating out
the lining membrane, producing chronic
