HOW TO KEEP 1T EVEN.

Col. Roosevelt hated the Bolshcviki,
and one day in New York he said to
a reporter:
We've got a disreputable tramp
Bolsheviki in Oyster Bay. He held
me mp i'll front of the general store
the other evening.
" The worlds all wrong, colonel,
he said. If us Bolsheviki had our
way we'd make law compelling the
rich to divide up with the poor. Then
all would be equal. Wouldn't that be
grand?'
Grand? No, you ignorant fool ;
said 1. In ten years after that equal
starte there'd be the same inequality
there is now
""Then,' said the Bolsheviki cheer
fully, then we'd divide Up again. Di-
vide up every ten years. It's as easy
as rollin' off q log. Can't you sec it,
colonel?' Los Angeles Times.

JOHNS ~PEP" RESTORED.

Mrs. Smiths ten year old son had
been causing her a considerable
amount of worry. While ordinarily
he looked fairly robust and healthy
undressed for bed he was actually
thin, his shoulder blades stuck out
and his back had the sagging appear
ance of old age His school report
cards, furthermore, showed a distinct
falling off in his scholarship.
The school teacher had no explain
on to offer except that John did
not seem to be interested. No, he
was not a dad boy" in fact he was
not nearly so full of mischief as the
boys and girls who stood nearer to
the top of the class. Yes, she had no
ticed-now that it was mentioned
that he was more quiet at recess than
he used to be and while he appeared
to try still he did not "catch on"
quickly during special help"
And so Mrs. Smith decided to con-
suit DR.. Blank, not because she
thought John was sick but because
she had heard of other children who
had seemed to be anchored fast by
adenoids, diseased tonsils or some 9TH
err physical handicap. And she had
heard of remarkable gains in health
and scholarship when the diseased
condition had been corrected by COM
paratively simple corrective opera
tions. DR.. Blank listened attentively
to what Mrs. Smith told him and then
made a rapid but thorough stripped
examination of the boy from the top
of his head to the soles of his feet.
This included his weight and height.
After that he asked precise informa-
ton Of what John had eaten at each
meal for two days and at what time
he went to sleep at night and awaken
ed in the morning. ss*fR-t"--
= THE difficulty is simple, but an
important one" said the doctor.
Your boy has no physical defects nor
disease. But he is suffering from
partial starvation. No, do not in
terrupt me; I know exactly, what I
am talking about and after a few
weeks in which you have followed my
directions to the letter the change in
Johns condition will make you real
ize the truth as we'll as I now do"
In lieu of any medicine the doctor
prescribed very definitely what and
how John should eat, eight O'Clock
bedtime, and half hours rest at
noon.
Yes, John will pass his school ex-
animation. And he has made the
baseball nine.

A Bilious Attack

When you have a bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its
functions. You become constipat-
ed. The food you eat ferments in
your stomach instead of digesting.
This infames the stomach and
causes nausea, vomiting and a ter
rible headache. Take three Of
Chamberlain's Tablets. They will
tone up your liver, clean out your
stomach and you will soon be as
we'll as ever. They only cost a
quarter. ADV.

 Mr. Fess criticised articles of the league constitution which he said re- ouired abrogation of existing trea- ties inconsistent with the league char ter.
 Calls For AbrOgatiOns. Ht.
 "This means if treaty now exists between us and Japan, inconsistent with the judgment of the league, as expressed by any five of the nine, it must be abrogated," said Mir. Fess. ''The question of European immi- grants also will fall under :his aa- thority and our laws of limitation inconsistent with what majority of this league shall find must be abro- gated. 'sNo further legislation on European or Asiatis immigratien could be en- acted without the consent of the lea que, as it covers not only treaty ! making. but such laws as are based upon treaties.
 7 HCan we be sure that questions of an American merchant marine will | hot fall under a vote of European countries which quite naturally will prefer to keep the monopoly of this particular activity? Evidently the league will have something to say about it."
