DO YOU BELONG?

If you like the old town best,
Tell 'em sol
If you'd have her lead the rest,
Help her grow!
When there's anything to do
Let the fellows count on you!
You'll feel bully when it's through
Don't you know!
If you want to make hit
Get a name!
If the other fellows hit,
Who's to blame?
Spend your money in the town,
Where you rull the sheckles down;
Give the mail concern a frown--
That's the game!
If you're used giving knocks,
Change your style!
Throw bouquets instead of rocks
For awhile.
Let the other fellow roast,
Shun him as you would ghost
Meet his hammer with boast
And a smile.
When stranger from afar
Comes along,
Tell him who and what you are
Make it Strong.
Needn't fatter, never bluff,
Tell the truth, for that's enough,
Join the boosters-they're the stuff
Let's belong!

Bilious Attacks.

When you have bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its func-
lions. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your stom-
ach instead of digesting. This in-
flames the stomach and causes nausea,
vomiting and a terrible headache.
Take Chamberlain's Tablets. They
will tone up your liver, clean out your
stomach and you will soon be as well
as ever. They only cost quarter.
Obtainable everywhere. (adv.)

AMERICANISM

The part that the United States
will pIay in the new day of interna-
tioual relationships which is now up-
ON us will depend upon our prepare
tion and our character. The Demo
cratic party therefore recognizes the
assertion and triumphant demonstra'
lion OF the indivisibiIity and coherent
strength of the nation, as the supreme
issue of this day in which the Who'll
world faces the crisis of manifold
change. It summons all men of what
ever origin or creed, who woult
count themselves Americans. to 'o''
IN making clear to all the world thu
unity and consequent power of Amer
lea.

+. FROM RON. 7. THE FLOOD
CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE REPORT.
ED THERE AS THE RIVER
CONTINUES TO RISE.

Quincy, Ill. May 10. With the stage
of the Mississippi river 17.2 feet to.
day, a rise in the preceding twenty-four
hours of one-tenth of a foot, trains on
the north K line track of the Burling-
ton road, between here and Gregory,
Mo-. thirty miles north, are plowing
through water which reaches the axles
of the wheels. Pilot riders have been
placed on all trains. The big washout,
caused by the water and high wind,
has been repaired and service is about
normal. Unless the crest is reached
soon the X line service will be stopped
entirely.
Taylor Mo-, twelve miles west of
here and across the river, is isolated
except by rail. Access to the city by
skiff from all directions is easy. The
road leading from that city here is un-
der twelve feet of water, stopping all
levee work in the district. Damage
by the high water this spring will be
enormous.

SAFETY FIRST IS
GETTING RESULTS
OVER THREE HUNDRED ROADS GO
THROUGH THE YEAR WITH
OUT A FATALITY.

Chicago, May 10.-All railway safety
records were broken in 1915 when
325 American roads, reporting to the
bureau Of railway news and statistics
here, went through the entire fiscal
year to June 80 without single
fatality to a passenger in train acci-
dent. The roads reporting operate
161,948 miles of line. It is stated that
this record of safe operation has never
been equaled by the railroads Of any
other country in the world.
All American roads in 1915, operat-
ing 250,000 miles of line, reported 1856
passengers killed in all railway acci-
dents.
During 1915, the 1926 American rail.
roads reporting immunity from fatal
accidents to passengers carried 1885,
166,54c passenger total distance Of
18,083,000 passenger miles and hauled
1,217,959,477 tons of freight distance
of nearly $4,000, 100000 ton miles.
The decreasing hazard to trainmen
is shown by the fact that 285 were en-
ployed for every one killed, the best
record set In that respect.

INTERVENE SAYS
TEXAS GOVERNOR
EXECUTIVE ISSUES STATEMENT
CALLING ON GOVERNMENT
TO END BORDER WAR.

Austin, Tex, May 10.-Governor
James F, Ferguson of Texas on his re-
turn to Austin last night issued a
signed statement in which he declared
that now was the proper time for
United States Intervention in Mexi
co to restore order in that country
If it takes ten or fifty years."
The statement says in part:
Since we have started we may as
well finish the job. A temporary pro-
lection of the border will accomplish
nothing. If we catch and punish one
bandit horde another takes its place
tomorrow. If a ruler is put in power
today he is betrayed tomorrow. 10y,
atty to any leader Is lacking and patri.
otism is unknown. Tho ruthless spill
ing Of American blood on American
soil now gives us justification and it
is now our duty to do whatever is
necessary to permanently prevent a
recurrence of further outrages against
our people. To do less will be to
shirk our duty to our national honor
and our duty to the Mexican people. !"
