the weak link with US seems to be the

be a we'll man or woman with a dis

About a year ago I met with an

ferment and cause gas, and the most
awful distress. I had pains around
my heart and all over my body, never
could get any sleep at night and kept
getting weaker and weaker every day
I tried every known remedy and all
kinds Of treatments, but none of them
seemed to help me in the least until
my son bought a bottle Of Plant Juice
for me and insisted that I try It, which
7 did. I am now glad to state that it
Completely relieved the awful misery

Stage productions or today are

Bacon, dressed in the style Of frayed

they laugh. contrasted the theater to-
day with the days wnen Booth and

Prize I.eghorn Hen Dies.

+ Lady Byzantine, the wonder Of the
poultry world and the pride of the
Byzantine Farms, at Greensboro, Md,
is dead. Lady Eglantine for many
years has been the most famous hen
in the world. Her supremacy goes
back to the time that she laid S15
eggs during her pullet year. She
easily won every prize for which she
competed in poultry shows. AT one
Of the shows a room was reserved for
her at the Imperial Hotel. This hen,
which was of the Single-comb White
Leghorn breed, left only nine cock
erels and three. ,pullets as her de-
scendants at the Byzantine Farms.
Her owners sold only seventeen OF
her eggs and these brought the rec
ord price of $40 each. They are now
trying to locate the persons to whom
these eggs were sold, in an effort to
determine If Lady Eglantine left any
descendants other than those now at
the farms.

THE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
AN EDITORIAL APPRAISAL


President Wilson's speech Of accept
ance was comprehensive. frank and
direct
1t was the utterance of man and a
political party. conscious Of the hon
esty of past endeavors and confident
OF ability to cope with whatever prob
lens the future might have In store.
No president has ever been called
upon to face more serious conditions
than has Mr.. Wilson. He has met
them with patience and devotion
that have won the respect and admira-
ton Of the world.
With domestic legislation to direct,
giving the relief from economic abuses
that the country's welfare demanded.
with long list of promises to fulfill.
the great war that burst upon the
world threatened to check him In his
efforts and to involve the nation in
the disasters that are affecting almost
every nation of the old world.
How he has brought the country
through it all. with honor and with
astounding prosperity. the acceptance
speech succinctly and modestly tells.
It is a story of triumph which every
American may read With pride In his
great country
It Is a story of achievement, of glory
far greater than comes TO conquerors
on ensanguined fields of battle.
1t is story of moral and economic
triumphs that distances romance and
puts fiction to rout in actual accom-
plishment.
In three and half years the coun-
try has been set Alright. every class
protected In its liberties and its op
portunities. the whole commercial sys.
tenn set in order. with prosperity
Astounding. and reason has never aban
: doned itx throne in all of the country's
perplexities
The speech was a message to the PEG
pie of all the, world S, 1t was a notice
to the world that this country is big
enough to maintain its honor and to
keep out of the war. and at the same
time big enough to regulate its do
nestle conditions
The speech was no apology. no De
that all men and women should read to
learn what the country has really
Tense. no complaint 1t was speech
been doing.
