America Should be In Shape to Profit.

Boston, Mass.-The pressing needs OF
Reconstruction which Republican Senst-
ors and Representatives are now striving
to meet were emphasized here by b. T.
Harris, president of the First National
Bank of Champaign, Illinois, while at
tending the meetings of the National As.
ISOLATION of Cotton Manufacturers.
"Civilization everywhere today faces
two foes" said Mr.. Harris, lone the
iron weight of autocracy, and the other
the Bolsheviki. We have thought
and worked and lived as an aggregation
Of individuals, not as Q nation. Now,
suddenly, we are undertaking the great.
est work any nation ever undertook, and
necessarily, with all its international re-
lationships and responsibilities.
"The labor or production problem
belongs to all of us, but has too long been
treated on day-to-day, hand-to mouth
basis. After the war Unemployment
and unemployment problems will over
power us unless we plan wisely and we'll
aow."
Mr.. Harris was literally applauded
when he referred to the after war prob.
lem which all who are accustomed to
look ahead see az one that no longer can
be ignored. He recalled to his audience
that Lincoln said: "Boards and Commis.
sions are contriyances to cheat the
Government" As 1t was Massachu-
setts Senator John W. Weeks) who In.
troduced In Congress the Republican
resolution calling for joint committee
on Reconstruction which later drew forth
the Democratic Overman Bill, calling
for the appointment of Presidential
Commission on Reconstruction, many Of
Mr.. Harris hearers were acquainted
with the issue which he outlined.
WHO WILL HAVE AUTHORITY?
The issue that Congress faces before
1t can directly approach the Reconstruc.
tion problem is whether the President or
Congress itself is to frame the legisla-
tion that will provide against the dangers
that threaten rs after the war, including
both employment and unemployment.
Public attention 10 now fast centering
on the Reconstruction problems and 1t 10
thoroughly realized here that America
has too long ignored them. Many here
are cognixant Of the fact that England
and France, as we'll as Germany, have
formulated laws to provide against de.
pressions and panics Immediately after
the war, and It is realized that there ID
y very grave danger, unless adequate
steps are Immediately taken to provide
against 1t. F.1cs r ik.s.-s "a 4

In the future some men around the
country to make inquiries of the various
industries and thus gain their point of
view on the subject. Officially the
Government was doing absolutely moth

regarding Reconstruction was among the
Republican leaders who, in line with
Republican training and temperament

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise i; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom- ach, lame back. can, instead. both look and feel as fresh as daisy always by washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning.

 The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one at splendid appetite for breakfast. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with biliousness, constipa- tion, stomach trouble or rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of in- ternal sanitation.

My appetite is good now, my nerves are calm and I get more pleasure out of eating and sleep ing than I have in long time. I get up in the mornings thoroughly refresh ed and am able to do all my work.

given last night by military
