"when Old Winter. shouting loudly,
Calls the snowfakes from the sky,
Ere November, sad and fearful,
Bids the earth fond good.by,
Then we count up all our blessings

And with fessting and rejoicing
Celebrate Thanksgiving Day.
"Old folks seem as gay as children;
Children frolic, laugh and shout,
And the noise disturbs Old Winter
Who asks, What's the fun about?
They've no Ice nor snow to slide on;
Wonder why they laugh and play
just as II they're truly happy,
Why, tits just Thanksgiving Day.

Four states In the recent elections
adopted prohibition of the liquor traffic
by popular vote, and in other states
legislatures were elected which are ex-
pected to pass prohibitory laws. In two
states, California and Missouri, prohibi-
ton was defeated, in each by the vote of
the states largest city, San Francisco in
California and 81. Louis in Missouri,
About half the states of the Union are
now "dry." The cause of prohibition,
which at the time of Names last vote
on IL in 1911 seemed almost to be stand
ing still If not actually losing, is now
making progress which ought to satisfy
its most ardent advocates.

USING UP VITALITY

The struggle for success uses up
vitality in America at a greater rate
than any other thing. Fighting to keep
away from the poor-house we shorten
the distance to the grave.
Especially in middle age, at forty or
thereabouts, do we become impressed
with the necessity OF laying up a COM
petence and with that feeling in time
comes worry, nervous breakdown. neu-
rasthenia. The entire system feels the
result of the nervous strain. The diges-
ton resents things that it accepted be-
fore, the heart palpitates on slight ex-
ertion, the muscles OF the back ache
after days work. Your blood is
thinner and not so bright red.
When these things occur, whether
you are fourteen or forty, you need a
tonic. DR.. Williams Pink Pills suit
most peoples need because they are
non-alcoholic and they really build up
the blood and strengthen the nerves.
They are useful for growing children
and for men and women whose nervous
energy has been overtaxed.

Pink Pills or they will be sent by mail,

The fact that the Democratic cam
paign managers have booked Secre-
tary Daniels for speech in Maine
seems to indicate that they have aban-
doned all hope of carrying the State
and simply don't care what happens
to the ticket in the September cleo
ton.
