Are You Looking Old?

Old age comes quick enough with
out inviting it. Some look old at
forty. That is because they neglect
the liver and bowels. Keep your
bowels regular and your liver healthy
and you will not only feel younger

with constipation or biliousness take
Chamberlain's Tablets. They are in
tended especially for these ailments
and are excellent. Easy to take and

EAST MOLINE WANTS
NEW TRAIN STATION

East Moline Commercial club last
evening adopted resolutions to urge
that the Rock Island road provide a
new depot in that city. The present
structure was built II years ago. 1t
was not designed in keeping with the
present status of the city, it is claimed,
and East Moline has enjoyed a remark
able growth since the building was
erected. Moline too, is endeavoring to
induce the Rock Island to provide a
new depot in Moline,
East Moline wants recognition on
the street car signs in cars on the in
terurban line. At present the signs
merely indicate whether the terminus
is Silvis or Watertown. The officials
of the Tri-City Railway company will
be consulted with a view to having
East Moline mentioned on the signs.
In conjunction with the Community
club the Commercial club will at an
early date hold booster meeting, and
farmers in that section of the county
will be specially invited to attend

EAST ENDERS CLAIM
RIGHTS ALONG RIVER

A plan whereby the city can coop
crate with citizens who own property
abutting on River drive and the Miss
issippi river, looking towards the i'm
provement of the river front and of
River drive, will be submitted to those
property owners at a meeting to be
held this evening at the home OF
George Gould in Moline. If ratified by
the assembled property owners it will
then be submitted to the Moline city
council in the form of resolution.
Owners of property abutting on River
drive claim riparian rights, most OF
them asserting they hold deeds, orig
inally granted by the government,
which gives them title to land GER
tain distance out into the river. In
the meantime the city has laid claim
to the riparian rights. Object of the
property owners, they say, is to find
common ground where the city and
the property owners can meet in amity
and work together for the improve
ment of the river front. F

TO SACRIFICE ALL
EXCEPT HUMANITY
President Intimately Discusses Inter.
national Situation Before the
GridirOn Club.

President Wilson told members and
guests at a Gridiron club dinner in
Washington last Saturday night that
America ought to keep out of the
European war at the sacrifice of
everything except this single thing
upon which her character and her his
tory are founded-her sense of hui
mainly and justice"
The address was confidential, since
the speeches at the dinners of the
Gridiron club, composed of newspaper
spondents, are not reported. 1t
was made public last night, however,
with the consent of the president and
the club, because many of those who
heard it urged that it should go to
the country
The president spoke of the nations
affairs with unusual gravity. His
hearers, including several hundred
members of congress, government off
Gals, business men and correspond
ents, were brought to their feet cheer
ing when he concluded with these
words:
Il would be just as much ashamed
to be rash as | would to be a coward
Nalor is self-respecting. Valor is cir
cumspect. ValOr strikes only when il
is right to strike. Valor withholds
itself from all small implications and
entanglements and waits for the great
opportunity when the sword will fash
as if it carried the light of heaven
upon its blade
The address follows:
Il have very little to say tonight
except TO express my warm apprecia-
ton of the invariable courtesy of this
club and OF the reception you have so
generously accorded me- | find that
am seldom tempted to say anything
nowadays unless somebody starts
something. and tonight nobody has
started anything.
Your talk, Mr. POSTMASTER, has
been a great deal about my candidacy
for the presidency. 1t is not a new
feeling on my part. but one which !
entertain with greater intensity than
formerly, that a man who seeks III e
presidency of the United States for
anything that 1t will bring to him is an
audacious fool. The responsibilities OF
the office ought to sober a man even
before he approaches it.
One of the difficulties Of the Office
seldom appreciated, dare say, is that
it is very difficult to think while so
many people are talking, and par
