That night Duane was not roubled
by ghosts haunting his waking and
sleeping ours. He awoke feeling bright
and eager. and grateful to Euchre FOR
having put something worth while into
MS mind. During breakfast, however
he was unusually thoughtfui. workinr
over the idea OF how much or how lit
tie he would confide in the outlaw. He
was aware OF Euchre's scrutiny.

RESCUED FROM TERRIBLE
SUFFERING FIRE

Mr.. H. M. Wooren, policeman, who
has been an officer at Florence for
ten years, said to the demonstrator
of Waco Tonic, "My wife has been a
sufferer for several years with Stom-
ach Trouble, Indigestion, Nervous
ness and Female Weakness. She un-
derwent two serious operations and
used number of advertised reme-
dies and had the best of medical skill
to treat her, and in all this she only
got partial relief. She has now used
one bottle of Waco Tonic, and l can
say it did her more good than every
thing else we did for her. l am glad
your wonderful Remedies were ever
put in our reach. do not hesitate to
say it is the best medicine ever intro
duced in our town, and I know that a
trial Of Waco Tonic will convince the
most skeptical that it is a reliable
medicine. l also used it myself and
find that Waco Tonic will do all it is
recommended to do"

THE WHITE CARNATION.

Here's to the White Carnation,
Sturdy and spicy and sweet,
Waiting a breath of perfume
On the stony way of the street,
Bringing freight of gladness
Wherever the breezes blow;
Here's to the white carnation
Pure as the virgin snow.
This is the flower for mother,
Wear it on Mothers Day;
Flower for rain and sunshine,
Winsome and gallant and gay,
Wear it in mothers honor,
Pinned on the coats lapel;
Wear it in belt and corsage
For her who has loved you well.
SO here's to the white carnation,
Wear it on mothers day;
Flower that blooms for mother,
Winsome and gallant and gay,
Flower of perfect sweetness,
Flower for hut and hall,
Here's to the white carnation,
And to mother-our best of all.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

Whereas, our Heavenly Father
has seen fit to remove from our midst
one of our charter members, Bro.
B. G. Wilburn, one whose interest in
our chapter knew no bounds, one who
zealously worked to promote the
principles for which our order stands,
and one whose faithful attendance on
our meetings attested the faith that
was in him. Therefore, we deem it
fitting that by resolution in our
meeting assembled, we pay tribute
to his faithfulness, and endeavor to
express, in measure, the sense of
loss we feel by this testimony of re-
gret.
"For it is written in Heaven
What he has given;
Placed on the records in letters of
gold;
Read by the spirits
Judge of merits,
Some day his name to us all will be
told"
Therefore be it resolved:
1st. That in the passing of our
brother we feel our great loss. That
we shall hold as sacred the tender
memories of our past associations,
and that we shall ever be grateful
for the help he has given us;
2nd. That we tender to his family
assurance of our sympathy in their
great bereavement. That we remind
them that "He who tempers the wind
TO the shorn lamb" looks down with
infinite compassion in the hour of
their desolation, and that He will fold
His arms of love and protection
around those who put their trust and
faith in Him;
3rd. That page be inscribed in
our record book to his memory; that
a copy of these resolutions be given
to his family; that copy be sent to
our county papers for publication,
and that as further mark of respect
we ask their adoption by rising vote.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Mary p. Hollis,
Mrs. Kate Alverson,
w. p. Patton.

wayne COUNTY RURAL FOLK
TAKE NUMEROUS PERIODICALS

Has the parcel post system doubled
back on itself? According to figures
prepared by Superintendent of Mails
Wilson at the postoffice, 1t is the city
man, not the farmer, who is getting
the advantages Of the system.
Farmers do very little mailing"
said Mr. Wilson today. LESS than
five per cent OF the mail collected from
farmers last month was parcel post
motter. The percentage OF deliveries
OF parcel post to farmers is little
more than that
Deliveries Abnormal.
On the other hand, Mr.. Wilson said,
deliveries to residences in the city are
abnormal when compared with expect
ed results from the parcel post system,
showing that it is in the city that par
Gel post is most popular.
The cooperative system for selling
farm products direct from the farmer
to the consumer by parcel post has
not wolsed out in Wayne county. In
fact, its use is no negligible as to be
scarcely noticeable, the figures show.
The four rural routes have done a
tremendous business, handling 100,917
pieces of mail in rs working days in
October, Mr.. Wilson said, averaging
more than 1000 pieces each day,
except Route A. which did slightly less
business than the others.

England Fully Armed.

Under England's compulsory service law,
which becomes effective tomorrow, some two mil
lion men will be added to the nations fighting
forces. Not all these will be called to the front
or kept under arms, for many will be needed at
home in the wars industrial tasks. But the moral
as well as the military effect of this great muster
will be none the less potent England knows, and
the world knows that last she is aroused and is
ready to put forth her utmost strength.
Apprehensions that compulsory service would
encounter serious opposition have dwindled away
The bill passed on its final reading in the House
of Commons by vote of three hundred and
eghty-three TO thirty-six Protests still heard
from certain groups of the labor element, but 1t
is significant that in the trade unonists conference
recently held at Bristol the delegates represent
ing two million or organized workingmen'
voted by a tremendous majority to stand stanchly
by the Government in waging the war to a victor1-
Gus end. The true mind and heart of British labor
was voiced by James Sexton, representative of the
Dock Workers who declared, in reply to the anti
war faction: eff Germany wins, nothing else on
Gods earth matters" No doubt there will be con-
tinued protests, and in some cases, perhaps resist
ance to CONSUMPTION theory. but the countrys
sentiment surges too strongly the other way for
these eddies to matter.
LIoyd-George estimates that, directly, the COM
million men. There are nearly nine hundred thou
sand married men, however who have offered their
services on the condition that they be called to
the colors after all the single men of eligible age
and circumstance have enlisted; and besides these,
there are upwards of half million single men who
have volunteered but who feel that the "slackers
should be whipped into line. Thus CONSUMPTION, II
such it may be termed in this instance, will be
valuable chiefly in vindcating the vast patriotic
majority against a recreant few.
The idea that the English spirit has Jagged
behind its traditions is not borne out by the fact
that six million answered the call for vol
unteers. Some of them were rejected because of
physical disabilities, and large numbers were re-
auired for the muniton works and railroads and
mines. But today England owns the greatest
army she ever produced 1--WE have three million
soldiers" says Lloyd-George, and by spring we
shall have four million-soid, fit and well
equipped" There was woeful lack of prepared
ness; there were delays and muddling, so that in
the first year of the British land power count
ed for only fraction of its potential strength.
But, if we may judge by the signs of the day,
England at last is girded, body and soul, for the
fight that she means never to give up.

A Tariff Commission.

Sometimes It takes more courage and certainly
Intelligence to change ones mind than it does
to maintain ones convictions. A year ago the
President opposed the establishment of tariff
commissions; today he favors it, He prefers to be
consistent with the countrys needs as they are
rather than with his views they were
In reality, however, he is not at all inconsist-
emit. The kind of tariff commission to which he
objected a year ago distinctly different from
that which he now advocates. The purpose of the
one was political of the other it is economic. The
Republicans sought tariff commission as means
of readjusting import duties to suit special inter-
ests; they were looking backward to the old days
of arbitrarily high protection. Mr.. Wilson favors
a commission as a means of acquiring exact and
comprehensive knowledge in the light of which the
tariff can be readjusted, occasion requires to
the country's common interests he is looking for
ward to the days and conditions that
will follow the war. AS he expressed it in his re-
cent New York address:
There is going in the world, under
our eyes, an economic revolution. No
'derstands that revolution; man has the ele-
ments of it clearly in his mind. And mem
bers of Congress are too busy, their duties
are too multifarious and distracting to make it
possible, within a sufficiently short space of
time for them to master the change that is
coming There is SO much to understand that
we have not the data to comprehend that l
for one would not dare to leave the Govern
ment without the adequate means of inquiry"
It is to meet these conditions that non-par-
tisan board working broadly scientific lines is
needed BY that means the tariff will be kent out
of politics, and the welfare of American industry
and of the American public will! be protected.

Beyond Imagination.

The total British casualties in all fields of the
war up to January are reported at five hundred
and forty-nine thousand four hundred and sixty
seven of which about hundred and twenty
nine thousand represent the killed, and the re-
mainder the wounded and missing.
The meaning of these figures becomes clearer
when it is recalled that during the entire four
years of the American War Between the States the
number of men the Northern side who
killed in battle or who died of wounds barely
ceeded one hundred and ten thousand, while the
fatalities on the Southern side were appreciably
fewer When to the. British casualties are added
the estimated losses of the other beligerents, the
total reaches the staggering figure of two million
killed approximately four million wounded and two
million captured In all history there is nothing
to which this vast sacrifice be compared.
General Francis V. Greene observes in a recent
number of the Outlook that in our war of the
Sixties of when we wont to speak as "the
greatest conflict of modern times the number of
men actually under never more than
million, three hundred thousand; and that in the
NapoIeonic wars from 1896 to 1915 1.-The largest
army ever assembled was that which Napoleon led
into Russia in 1912, numbering somewhat in excess
of five hundred thousand" In the present war
it. is estimated, some thirteen million are
der arms; and, as General Greene points out. the
German forces alone engaged in Russia and in the
West are more than six times great Napoleon's
greatest army
We speak of the magnitude of this war, but the
fact is we cannot grasp its huge and terrible pro-
portions. Not even Miltonic Imagination could
picture it ...........L...
