THE DEED is DONE

With the landing of the American
flyers at the Azores on the seven
teenth of May, mans mastery of the
air became an accomplished fact
From Trepassey Bay to the islands
was the long leg of the journey. If
that could be negotiated safely once,
it could be done again. From now
on, though progress may be slow and
difficulties multiply, there remains
but steady development of air traf-
fic everywhere.
And with the glorious thrill of this
accomplishment comes another, deep
er and stronger even than that of the
knowledge that man has conquered
the air.
If man can do this-in addition to
all his other feats of civilization-re-
mains there anything man cannot do?
If man can conquer the elements,
can he not conquer the evil forces
OF his own self? Can there not in re-
ality be an end of wars, IL beginning
of realization of human brotherhood? :?
We have beaten the Germans, freed
the seas, traversed the hidden ways
of air Can we. not do the rest?
And out of the past comes still,
small voice saying, forceful calm,
with authority: Better is he that
ruleth his spirit than he that taketh
u city"

WHEN TO GATHER
ROOTS AND HERBS

For medicinal purposes, roots and
herbs should be gathered when their
medicinal prperites are at their best.
For instance, roots of annual plants
should be dug just before their flow
ing season, and roots of biennial or
perennial plants after the tops have
dried. All these things are taken into
consideration in gathering the roots
and herbs, many tons of which are
used annually in preparing that most
successful of all remedies for woman's
ills, Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable
