time will be found for full review Of

Plain Questions to Shepherdstown
People.
Every ShepherdstownR Reader Will Ad-
NIT the SOundnesS of the Logic.

Would Shepherdstown people recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills as they do il
the medicine were not reliable ? Would
they confirm their statements after wears
have elapsed if their experiences did not
show the remedy to be deserving OF t?
Statements like the following must carry
conviction 10 the mind OF every reader !:
Mrs. Nettie V. Turner, Rocky ST.,
Shepherdstown, says: 81 had a compli-
cation of troubles, the principal one be-
ing kidney complaint. Ny kidneys were
irregular in action and the kidney secre-
tons were unnatural. also had head
aches and there was soreness across my
loins finally used Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured at Hills Pharmacy, and it did
not take them long 10 make me stronger
and better in every way. They stopped
the soreness and backache and made my
kidneys normal"
Mrs. Turner gave the above endorse
ment OF Doau's Kidney Pills in Novem-
Der 1910. OVERTIME YEARS LATER,
she said 81 use Doan's Kidney Pills
once in awhile and they always give
immediate relief"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's

has twice publicly recommended. Fos-

campaign was General Lilly's promise
that if he were elected there would be
some new faces about the capitol at

taton so far as the Republicans are con-
cerned. But the election OF John Corn

THE keynote speech for the Republic
ans was made by Mr.. Hughes in New
York on Monday night, the occasion
being his formal notification OF his nomi-
nation for the presidency. 1t is fine
literary production, but as campaign
document il is fiZzle. II fell flat and
was distinct disappointment TO the
party leaders, in that it raises no political
issue on which fight can be made. Mr..
Hughes criticises President Wilson and
The Democratic administration for its
management of the Mexican situation and
its attitude in the conduct OF diplomatic
relations with foreign governments during
the great war, but he deals only in gen.
eralities and.suggestS no change OF policy
The weakness of his criticism is shown
by his failure to offer remedy, and in
response to the demand that he shall tell
how he would have dealt with Germany
and Mexico had he been President he is
sadly silent. Mr.. Hughes first speech
is ample in criticism, but it is woeiully
lacking in suggestions OF constructive
craftsmanship.

WITH this week the great European
war enters upon its third year. And
while in the first year OF the war the
Germans seemed to have affairs pretty
much their own way, the situation is
greatly changed now. The Allies have
not only held the German armies at bay,
but they have now taken the aggressive
and are pressing the Teutonic forces on
every side. Russia, in the East, is sweep
ing VIGOROUSLY on, and the Austrian
armies seem 10 he in fair way toward
complete collapse. Long since definitely
stopped in France and unable to advance
a step, the Germans are now being slowly
but surely pressed back by the French
and English forces, whose resources in
ammunition, guns and supplies are in
creasing while those OF the Germans are
decreasing. With every port blockaded
by the British fleet, Germany is suffering
for the thousand and one necessities OF
life, and there can be little doubt that the
people are in sore straits, because OF
the fact that the vast armies must have
the first call on food and supplies.
No one can tell how the terrible struggle
will end, but il seer1s impossible that
Germany can now win. For the sake OF
peace for centuries 10 come, we hope that
the military spirit that has dominated
Germany the past half century may be
broken, that the reiguing dynasty may be
overthrown, and that from IFS ruins may
spring republic which may become,
next TO our own United States, the ideal
republici OF the world. Released from
the weight OF war and militarlsm and
royalty, with liberty and peace and polit-
lcal equality, what wonderful nation
Germany could becomel
