Biggest Problem Facing Nation.

THE biggest of all. the big prob
lens facing this nation In these great
days of reimbursement is to make
America safe for Americans.
Il am in thorough sympathy with
the plan and purpose to establish in
ternational Justice and right. The
world must have law and order
among and between the nations. We
can expect nothing less as the proper
fruit Of the tragedy through which
mankind has lately passed.
But we must not become so alb
sorbed in the affairs of the world
that we overlook the thing dearest
to the hearts of real Americans-the
protection of our own country from
foes and traitors within.
This is a country where the ma
jority rule! Evolution may move a
bit too slowly to suit the wildeyed
radicals. But the rule of the majority

jority can have anything they want
Even If the majority should want
something that might prove to be
wrong they can still have 1t.
The hour has struck when America
must protect herself from those with

Representative N. l. Davey
Would Rid United States
of Alien Bomb PIotters

Make America safe for Americans.
Rid America of those who would do

| with those who would destroy the
/ things we hold most dear"
This is the policy that Representa-
tive Martin L. Davey of Ohio. whose
home district has big foreign popu-
! lation, advocates in view of the spirit
! Of bolshevism and anarchy in this
J country today.
I Using the May day bomb mailing

blow up the residence of Attorney
| General Palmer as Illustrations of
| the widespread plotting against gov
! eminent officials and Institutions,

/ urging Legislation to deal with radi-
!. Gals and disloyal people.
What He Advocates
!! Il am only one of 435 members of
| the House. but in so far as 1t lies with
in my power, here are some of the
| things / shall earnestly strive to ac-
| complish,'' said Mr.. Davey in outlining
his program.
/ "First-Make it a little harder to
| secure citizenship. so that in the fu-
! ture those who assume the sacred OBJ
. legation may at least know how to
read and write the English language
and understand the simple funda
mentals of American government.
'Second-Give large federal aid to
educational work throughout the
country, seeking to thoroughly Ameri-
canize all who are willing to be and
! to spread the advantages of education
to enlighten and bless ever adult and
! every child. Education is assuredly the
bulwark of civilization.
'"Third-Place a heavier tax upon
aliens who grow fat upon our pros
perity and who steadily refuse the
responsibilities of citizenship If they
do not like it, let them depart in
peace and make room for a more
worthy type.
"Fourth-Forbid the right of citf-
Zenship to all those who, when the
test came, withdrew their first papers
| to escape the draft and remained here
to receive the highest wages in -
tory while noble Americans went forth
to battle to save democracy and civil

citizenship. send them back where
they came from.

FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain--the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
"A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that ! know of
has SO large SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that so many people claim, it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.
Large and medium size bottles for sale

WORK AND PLAY TOGETHER
BY MRS. PRESTON : cAse

BY MRS. PRESTON F. GASS.
Very little children of two and three
years require the companionship Of
other children in work and play as
much as those Of recognized kinder
garten age The child of two is in.
tensely interested in tie activities of
children four, five and six years old,
and is able to initiate, enlarge his
knowledge and experience, and even
share in their activities. The activi-
ties oflthe adults about him, while thew
can be initiated and in some measure
shared by him, cannot have the same
value in his mental or physical deyel-
opment.
When daddy saws large board with
large saw, the two-year-old is inter-
ested; but when the four-year-old saws
a small board with a small saw. DOS
slbly making some toy that will be
used by the little one, he is more than
interested-he saws wood as soon as
he can. Watch an adult try to amuse
this two-year-old with a new box of
blocks. Invariably the blocks are piled
high for steps, towers, arches and so
forth, and the little child finds great
delight in sending the blocks tumbling
with a crash to the floor. He takes
no particular pleasure in the building
of one block upon another, and we
think he has not yet reached the age
for building. Now the group Of older
children making structures with these
same blocks do not pile them one up
on another, but lay them side by side,
to form the walls of house for the
doll or barn for the woolly dog. And
Immediately the little one is interest
ed, not in tumbling the blocks down,
however, but in laying them beside
each other, one after another.
In Any Home.
Many mothers realize this need Of
their children to have group activity,
but know of no way in which to bring
the group together until they are ready
for the regular kindergarten. 1t can
be accomplished in almost any home,
however, If the mother is willing to de-
vote few hours day to working
and playing with the children in the
immediate neighborhood under school
age, or those at home for the long sum

Whenever the weather will permit,
activities are best carried on out of
doors and very little equipment is nec-

Bought a Larger One.

Mary Ellen's father was a garden
enthusiast last summer. His onions
could not be used until they were
larger than his neighbors :, his cab
bages had to become mammoth heads
before they could be harvested. In
every way his slogan was, Let things
grow until they reach their limit"
The other day Mary Ellen's aunt
took her to town to buy a toy piano.
She looked at several, and auntie had
almost decided to buy one of medium
size, when she noticed that her small
niece wished to tell her something.
Obligingly she leaned over to have this
warning whispered into her ear !:
fDon't you think we'd better let that
one stay here and grow while?"
Then auntie bought the larger one.

SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-
Ger are the most important organs of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
your blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backaohe, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy
microbes which are always present in your
system have attacked your weak spots.
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules are
what you need.
They are not "patent medicine" NOR
a new discovery" For 200 years they

Little Things Count in Thrift.

The reason so many Americans have
not been thrifty was because they fail
ed to appreciate the power of little
things. 1t is yielding to the little i'm
pulses to spend small amounts foolish
ly that keeps many family hard up
from one years end to another.
1t was the thorough appreciation of
the value of little things that made
