MANY HEAR COL. Balm
Famous Prohibition Leader Given Big
Reception by Topeka Audience.

Col. George w. Bain, of Lexington,
KY, one of the most noted pioneer
prohibition leaders of the United
States and a chautauqua speaker of
lecture at the First Baptist church
Sunday night on the subject, IF Had
My Life TO Live over Again"
Colonel Balm is probably more wide
ly known turnout Kansas than any
other Kentuckian because of his work
he was one of the leaders in the move
ment with John f. st. John, and the
church was packed to its capacity to
hear the famous old veteran of the
platform.
In his talk Colonel Balm touched
more on the current events of the
world than on his own life as he
would like to live it over and his
optimism over the outlook for democ-
racy and the end of all wars gave his
audience new viewpoint of the Euro
pean struggle which the United States
has entered.
Thru all the dread carnage of the
war, thru the smoke of artillery duels
Of Vesuvian PROPORTIONS, thru this
overwhelming holocaust of humanity.

will endure" Colonel Balm declared.
Grim as is the aspect of the struggle,
there is a radiant silver lining In

yoke of absolutism into dem cy-
1 am certain, as l am sure of the sal
walton of the soul, that a like event
is not far distant in Germany. War is
being killed by war. An International
ism is emerging. National prejudicoS
are being broken down. There will
be a fraternal order of the powers as
an outcome, a fraternalism that will
embrace every country but Turkey,
which must be taken in hand by the
other DOwerS

You can make n thorough prOve-it-tO-yOu
test of this guaranteed rupture holder
without having to risk a single cent
Well send IL to you for sixty days trial
practically lend it to you that lOng-iust
to let you see for yourself how it takes all
the misery out of being ruptured.
II 1t cannot be made to keep your rup-
ture from coming out or from bothering
do or any other strains-then it won't cost
you penny.
The Only Thing Good Enough
To stand Such A Test
You know as well as we that mere try
on--like at drugstore-can't possibly
prove whether n truss or anything else for
rupture is going to do any good
Neither is Just few days trial a safe
test. A truss or so-called appliance" may
seem all right the first week or so and
then turn out TO be nc good whatever.
But you can't possibly make 4 mistake
after sixty days trial.
And there is only one thing of any kind
for rupture that you can get on such a
long trial
Only one thing good enough to stand
That is our guaranteed rupture holder
the famous Clutbe
Made On New Principle
The Cluthe is so radically different from
everything else for rupture that it has re-
ceived eighteen separate patents. Made on
than just n truss
II has so thoroughly proved its merits in
over 100000 cases that physicians in all
parts of the world now recommend it in
stead of advising operation.
To Save YOu From Operation.
A rupture can't possibly be relieved
can't even be kept from growing worse
unless protected against all strains and
constantly kept from coming out Just as

Something sweeter than all we've

In the beautiful days that have come

Something new in the world each

There is something new for US all

Something new for us all to be,
Something wiser and grander, too,
Something more lovely for life to
For so IL hungers, and SO do We.
For something new in u grief and

Something new for His children's

Something nobler to help US find
A cleaner heart and a happier mind;
For 30 life feeds on the dreams that
glow
With something new for the world
to know.
