Never since the birth Of this ma

the principles Of strict divorce Of
church and state. as is seen in the
struggle to secure public appropri-

Earnest Appeal to Patriots

To the patriots OF Massachusetts,
the present is big with possibilities,
a crisis has been reached which calls
upon every man and woman Of the
commonwealth to Join in redeem
ing the state from papal vassalsge,
and making old Massachusetts, once
again the apostle of democracy and
the inyincible champion of freedom.
The hands on the dial mark an
other Of those mighty struggles
with Old World reaction, despotism
and intolerance which from time TO
time register crucial hours in free
dom's ceaseless battle for the larger
life and nobler idealism.
Duty again summons every child
Of democracy to join the colors and
display anew the lofty patriotism
and high conservation to freedom
that marked the lives of Adams,
Otis. Hancock, Warren and the in
trepid sons Of liberty, which in the
elder day rendered possible, il moi
inevitable, the birth Of democracy
and that miracle Of the eighteenth

Gov. Mccall On the Issue

Governor Mccall addressing the
Methodist ministers on April 10th,
said:
"we must keep free and open forums
Of truth where truth will be analyzed
from all points Of view.
"a man can adopt the religion which
he chooses and no church or state has any
right 20 interfere. There should always
be separation Of church and state. The
basic principles Of government cannot
exist upon any such union"
The most significant and en-
couraging event that has followed
the papal riot, has been the break
ing of the conspiracy Of silence
which Rome has been able to i'm
pose on the Massachusetts, press in
recent years in regard to religio-
politico questions that the hierarchy
did not wish discussed.
The Boston Journal has, for the
time being, opened its columns to a
more or less extended discussion Of
the religious question, and thus this
democracy psralyzing silence--tht
Roman boycott against freedom Of
politico religious discussion in the
press-has been broken. IL the true
Americans Of Massachusetts, act
with wisdom and unity this adj
vantage can be followed up and thC
old vital freedom Of the press re-
established.

WHAT Is BABY WEEK.
Necessary Facts For Observing Baby
Week Successfully.

(Bulletn by n. G. Board of Health.) }
Just what Baby Week is supposed
to be when it is observed from March
Z to IL this spring is explained more
or less fully in a bulletin recently is
sued by the state board of health.
According to the bulletin. the purpose
of baby week is primarily education
al-to give the parents an opportu-
nifty of learning the facts with regard
to the care of their babies, and to
bring home to every one in the com
munity the Importance of the babies
and the permanent work needed for
their welfare.
The bulletin calls attention to two
principal points to be remembered In
planning a Baby Week campaign.
First. that it is community CAM
paign and must have the cooperation
of all community interests and organ
izations, especially those interested
in any phase Of child welfare. Some
woman's club is suggested as the
proper organization to hanule th'
movement. Second, that Baby Week
campaign should not be temporary
hurry of excitement, but, on the 9TH
er hand, efforts for permanent good
should be planned and follow up
methods adopted wherever practic-
able.
The bulletin says that every town
or community can if it will carry out
some form of Baby Week campaign,
and that the program adopted should
be the best suited to local condi-
tions.
The Children's Bureau at Washing
ton, ID. C.. VII gladly give sugses-
tions for Baby Weeks of two differ
ent types, according to whether a
small or large community is en-
braced.

Remedy Prescribed
by Many Doctors
Compound Of Simple Laxative Herbs
Proves Most Efficient.

DR.. w. A. Evans, writing for the
Chicago Tribune, makes the assertion
that practically everyone, at some
time or other, suffers from constipa-
ton. This applies regardless OF age
or condition in life.
The congestion of stomach waste
in the bowels is evidenced in various
ways; bloat. eructation OF 1ou' stom-
ach gases, sick headache, langour,
all indicate constipation. and call for
prompt attention, not only to relleVe
the present discomfort but also TO
avoid possible disease that follows
neglect of this important function.
Harsh cathartics and violent purSa-
tiyes should not be employed, as these
afford only temporary relief, while
they serve to shock the entire system
A mild laxative such as DR.. Caldwells S
Syrup Pepsin is far preferable and is
now the remedy generally used and
prescribed by many doctors. 1t Is
free from opiates or narcotic drugs,
acts easily and pleasantly, without
gripping or other pain and is safe,
effective family remedy.

Why wait until your oats are ready
to cut before pulling out your binder
and finding that there is a new piece
to be ordered? This may cost you a
week or two of valuable time and af-
ter you have waited impatiently
through several days of fine weather.
IT is as likely as not that rain will be-
gin to fall. When you order repairs
at such time, you will find that 9TH
ers are doing likewise. The manufac-
turers are rushed with orders and the
delay is often such that you are driven
to purchase a new machine. Now

and put in your orders for necessary

and well oiled not only increases its
efficiency and length OF life, but also
lessons the power necessary to oper.

Peaches In EnaIand.

A long time ago someone said that
