Drug store Latin.

In one Of the southern prohibition
states a physician had occasion to or
der some whisky for patient. 1t SO
happened that the whisky reached the
express Office on Sunday morning. The
doctor sent for the package, and the
express agent returned the reply that
the whisky could not be delivered on
Sunday. Thereupon the doctor sent
word that the whisky was for a very
sick patient and must be had at once.
The agent sent a reply that II the doc
tor would write a prescription for the
whisky he could get it. The doctor
wrote upon his prescription blank ::
sic semper tyrannis," and the whisky
was promptly deliyered.-Medical
Journal.

insurance is adequate power. We
have allies, but our first policy
should be to prepare to rely upon
ourselves alone. 1t may not finally
prove to have been necessary, but it
will mean national safety.
These remarks are particularly ap-
plicable to the matter of promoting
increased production of foodstuffs.
While the agitation for city gardens
and greater individual effort may
yield surprising results this year, it
is not too early to begin systematic
effort for bigger crops next season.
This season the efforts have been
sporadic and largely without system.
There should be just as much order
and system about conscripting va.
cant lots as about conscripting back
ward men for army or navy, and,
through the tax assessors, we have
easy means Of registering the lots.
The arabic, non-producing lot should
be listed and either be made to pro-
duce war potatoes or war taxes. Leg
islation may be required to get
"slacker" property into the ranks

A MANS A MAN.

Time was when it was quite the
thing to call farmer "hayseed."
He was also called a rube, a hick,
or a greene.
But that time has gone. There
never was any sense in the use OF
such words. No man is at home in
another's surroundings.
But today the farmer ranks with
the soldier as the nations first line
defender. The corn row ranks with
the fire trench. 81"
The farmer is not only a useful
person today, but he is also a hero.
So away with the patronizing at
titude, the high and lofty manner,
the sarcasm and derision.
A mans a man these days.

many might settle things suddenly
at any time, but Germans are no,
Russians.
Speculation on these points may be
the business of unattached diplomats

no place in Uncle Sans program

confusing. 1t must not be permitted

In augmenting army and navy

In charging oceanic and other trans.

go ahead exactly as if the war was
to continue for a generation or more,
with our nation bearing the big part
of the burden.
We should aim at nothing less

how large the power demanded.
