Senator Lewis of Illinois.

Senator James Hamilton Lewis, asked by Pres
ident Woodrow Wilson to reconsider his Judgment
in the matter of making the campaign for re-
election and to undertake race" has accepted the
issue and will he says. "go to the people of Illinois
for judgment upon the great, broad basis of true
democracy-so necessary if we should maintain
republican form of government"
Senator Lewis is therefore a candidate for re-
election and the Herald and Examiner mistakes the
temper Of the people of Illinois If does not also
emphatic Endorsement of the president, the
administration and of its valiant supporter
The people of Illinois have no hesitant record
Down the ages they have been steadfast to those
who have been steadfast with them Loyalty is a
trait inherent in the people. but the truth to
say that citizens of this state without reserve have
the courage to stand by and with those who helped
make national history with clarity and tntelli-
gence.
Senator Lewis deserves well at the hands of his
people,. He has been a stanch dependable and
intimate friend of great president When others
questioned the motives of those high in the public
confidence Senator Lewis remained true and cour-
ageous through all the evil and destructive crit
cism.
Senator Lewis is more Of statesman than
politician. He has vision and potse, coupled with
grace Of manner and charm of diotion that impel
the public. He has been Of the sort that, once hav-
ing put his hands to the pillow. has not turned back
Through good and i'll report he has been steadfasy
back Of President wilson, and the people
generally are similarly placed is but token of
the wisdom of Senator Lewis
1t has been source OF strength to the president
to know that he had in the house and senate real
friends With vision given to few he perceived
obstacles unseen by the many, and than once
he had to run counter to public opinion even in his
party.
II is 10 Senator Lewis credit that he
cred in unfolding the president and HIS determine
ton do based intimate knowledge of
what in the presidents mind, for he enjoyed Mr..
wilson's confidence because Mr.. Wilson had conf
dence in his judgment.
The people of Illinois will welcome the oppor-
tunity to send back TO the senate who has
fected credit his and on his coantry.-Chi-
cago Herald and Examiner.

Is More Testimony Needed?

President Wilson says: 'ThUughtIeSs eXpendi-
lures Of money for non-essenuals use up the labor
OF men, the products of the farm mines and fac
tories and overburdens transportation, all of which
must be used TO and their best for
purposes"
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo says: 1T is es-
sentia that the American people economic and save
in order to make available to their government the
money indispensably needed for the and to re-
supplies and labor required for the production
Of things necessary for our military forces and
for the military forces Of the nations associated with
us"
Samuel Gompers, head Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor. says: During the time when send
our young to the trenches TO live life that
grills flesh and nerve. let every man, woman and
child who is privileged to remain in free America
in physical safety count it a freemans duty to eat
simple food and conserve for our army and allies
to wear simple clothes 10 avoid unnecessary or IN
wise expenditures that we may give to our fighting
men and the government and have resources for the
constructive work of the country"
Frank A yanderIip, chairman Of the national war
savings committee and president Of the National City
bank Of New York says: Everybody should buy less,
consume less. more money, and loan their saw
ings TO the government The result will be more
money for the government TO the war increased
accumulation Of savings by the people at good inter
absolute security, and less Drain the coun-
try's productive and industrial resources"
Arthur T Hadley, president Of Yale university,
says: Those Of US who left at home must in
crease our production and lessen our consumption
in order to and supplies available for fight
ing. We must reduce consumption to war basis.
We must abstain from unnecessary expenditures in
the way Of comforts and services"
julius Rosenwald, president Of Sears, Roebuck &
Co, and now a member Of the advisory commission
Of the council Of national defense. says: Saving by
everyone is imperative the winning Of this war
IS is the modelling Of armies: more than that, the
nobilizng Of armies is entirely futile If this mill

tary step is not accompanied by the rigorous common
sense saving of the nation ~or without saving the
marshaed hosts not be equipped, not be fed,
can be carried overseas and not be put into
the fight We can finance the enormous cost of this
war by spending only for the things need, not
by spending for the things desire. Just so long
we continue to spend for things we do not need,
just that long do prolong the and add to the
tremendous sacrifice of life and property"
Here is the testimony of the president of the
United States of the secretary of the treasury of the
country's most prominent labor man. of a banker,
the president of of the foremore educational
institutions, and of merchant. And the burden of
their testimony is that it is the duty of to
TO the utmost that there may be more money,
labor and materials for the government with which
fight the war It is unusual to find such agreement
from so many different quarters.
Is more testimony needed?

THE UNEXPECTED.
BY Price barrow.

1t was the happiest day of his
life, and everybody about the great
chemical works where Norman
Wilde was an humble employee
knew it, and with smiles and con-
CALCULATIONS endeavored to express
their friendliness. That evening
he was to wed the woman of his
choice, and he hustled about active
ly, aiming TO leave everything ap-
pertaining to his work in ship
shape order while he enjoyed 4
week of honeymoon bliss.
He was a poor man, earned only
fair wages and was marrying a
poor girl-poor. indeed, in worldly
goods, but inestimably rich in thos.,
sterling qualities of heart and
mind that go for perfection. Nor
man had known Effie Deane for
nearly a year.
1t was Just after noon and Nor
man was passing through the stock
room, when his elbow tipped an up-
right frame holding a number OF
filled phials ready to be corked and

Government Inspection of Meat
Can you inform me whether any
meat in the market is not inspected
by government experts for disease
| supposed all meat had to pass
such inspection in the United
States, but a friend in the meat
business tells me much meat re-
ceiyes no inspection. Up. e. WD
Answer-The inspector in charge

animal industry of the u. s. de-
partment of agriculture states that

spect, and cannot inspect, the cattle
slaughter in a number of .......
plants" (The inspectors office is
in one of the largest eastern cities.)
He continues: This is point upon
which we are constantly endeavor-
ing to enlighten the meat-consum-
ing public, who, by the way, are
generally Indifferent as to the orig
in of their meats or the manner in
which such meats have been
handled, so long as it looks all
right when they buy it."
Removing a Callus.
A girl in our Office told me for
mtlla you published some time ago
removed a very annoying callus
from the sole of her foot, but she
has lost the formula. Will you
be good enough to repeat it? &c.
NJ. CO
Answer-Soak foot for 20 min
utes in very hot water. Dry well.
Paint the callus with a solution of
80 grains of salicylic acid in an
ounce of flexible collodion. Repeat
this daily until the callus softens
and is easily rubbed Off. The cal
lus, like a corn, is sure to return
unless pressure or friction by Ill
shaped Or ill-fitting shoes is
avoided.

end of two months the attending
physician announced that all traces
of permanent infection had disap-
peared from the eyes. The first dav

never left her beloved face except
when she brought him some pretty
flower or buried her head upon his
breast to weep out her rare glad
