DAILY HEALTH TALKS
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, NJ. D.

II can be said broadly that most human
ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails TO
properly dispose of the food you cat,
troubles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the COM
monest forms, but thin, impure blood,
headaches, backaches, pimples, blotches,
dizziness, belching, coated tongue, weak
ness, poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs,
colds and bronchitis are almost as common.
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
in good order. This is easy to do if you
take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. II is wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is SO safe to take, for 1t Is
made Of roots and herbs. DIR. Pierce OF
Buffalo, N. Y, stands behind this standard
medicine, and il is good TO know that so
distinguished physician is proud to have
his name identified with it. When you
take Golden Medical Discovery, you are
getting the benefit of the experience Of a
doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get temper
ance medicine that contains not drop OF
alcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DIR. Pierce combined certain valuable
vegetable NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the use Of
alcohol-so that these remedies always
have been strictly temperance medicines

quick relief it gives is hard to believe unit
you try it, If constipated, DR.. PieTce

come. They are so good that nearl,

a master criminal as barrier behind
which he might hide and beat back his
pursuers. But American boys anu
English boys and French boys broke
down that barrier, and they have to-
day arraigned that criminal at the
worlds bar of justice, where he is be-
ing tried for his crimes The Ameri-
can people are part of the jury that
is trying him, and have tried to pre-
sent but small fraction of the evil
dence against him.
1t is safe to say that the verdict may
be left with the American people, with
the French people, with the English
people, with the Belgian people, and
that they will sentence the Boche to
pay and pay and pay for several gen.
erations until there has been bred out
of him and his children that idea that
might is right and that he can over
throw the civilization and the free
dom of the world to crafty his own
selfish purposes.
The crime is greater than the Boche
can ever pay for. It is really greater
than the world will ever know, and the
items in the long account of the crimi-
nal record Of Germany will never all
be recorded

CAPITAL RENTALS ARE HIGH
Sum Paid by President Washington
for Residence Would Not Be Con-
sidered Extravagant To-day.

Rentals of $500 to $1,000 year
are not remarkable. There are hun
dreds of apartments in this city which
rent for more, great deal more, and
it is likely that the new constructions
in the best apartment-house sections
contain no suites as cheap as $4,000.
When New York was the capital of
the nation and Washington the chief
executive there were few who paid as
high as $1,000 year for homes. Rec
ords show that George Washington
paid $4,000 year for the use of the
McComb mansion on Broadway while
president of the United States. AS
first citizen Of the country it was al
lowable that he should pay SO high
rental, but only the president paid
anything like that amount. He got a
good deal more for his money than
the man who pays $4,000 for an apart
ment today.
The McComb house was one Of the
finest homes in the capital. 1t was
built by the best architect In the
colonies and great care and no small
amount of money were spent in the
construction of the house, which was
large and had many splendid rooms
1t had beautifully laid out grounds
and from business standpoint was
ideal because it was only a short dis
lance from Federal hall at the north
east corner of Wall and Nassau
streets, now the subtreasury. Wash
ington extended himself when he paid
this rental, although one of the rich
est men in the colonies.

Why Germany Should Pay.
Think Of what it would mean should
the Boche go through any one of our
own agricultural states and commit
the same terrible depredations. Would
we not say that he should pay? And
can we afford to say anything less for
the farmer of France than we would
say for the farmer of America? No,
the American ideals of today, the
ideals which the stricken peoples Of
Europe are striving to make their
ideals, demand justice for all wherever
and whoever they may be, and Amer
lea can do no less than demand the
same reparation for the French farm
err that she would demand for the
American farmer under such circum-
stances. 81 $50 s

BY WRIGHT A. PATTERSON.

Can the American reader imagine
transforming the fertile fields and
prosperous villages and towns and
cities in states like New York, Ohio,
kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kan
sas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Wisconsin,
Texas, or any other of the rich agri-
cultural states Of the Union into an
uninhabited deGrt?
That is what the Boche did to the
Somme country of France Before
the war this section of France was
looked upon as one of the most pro-
ductive sections of the world. 1t was
covered with fertile farms, splendid
fruit orchards, thriving villages and
towns and prosperous. little cities.

the history of the great war.
This beautiful valley was interlaced
with magnificent roadways, and each
many of them centuries old. Along
these roadways stood hundreds of
farm villages, each village housing
from one hundred to five hundred hap
Ply, contented, thrifty people, who
titled the soil Of their fertile acres and
gathered the fruit of their orchards as
their forefathers had done for many
generations.
Upon the farms of this valley all of
France depended for much of it's food
stuffs, for it's bread, it's meat, it's fruit,
and year after year these fertile acres
and these thrifty, Industrious people
had met the expectations of France in
the matter Of food production.
And then came the Boche with his
dreams of conquest and of loot, and
for four years this valley of the
Somme was a battle-ground, with mil
lions of men struggling backward and
forward across it, those on the one
side seeking the selfish purpose of
world domination and destruction and
those opposed seeking the preserva-
ton of freedom and liberty and world
civilization.

A Printer In Luck

devotes nearly one half page to
the strike made recently in the
Tonopah, Neveda, district, by W.
A. Patton and B. 0. Bonham, two
we'll known former citizens of this
county. The one peculiar thing
about the story is, that Patton is
an old newspaper man, and who
ever heard of newspaper men
meeting with any such luck. They
have been known to grab a rich
widow, but even cases of that
kind have been very rare. How
ever we hope that the report proves
true and the boys really have the

Consider Plans
To Develop Mines

A meeting of our citizens was
held in the City Hall Tuesday
evening in the interest of the
State Mines Development associa-
ton, which is now being organized
thruout the state for the purpose
of development of the mineral re-
sources. Mr.. Brokaw, of Denver,

the organization. addressed the
meeting explaining the aims and
objects of the association. Mr..
Brokaw was given very close at
tention and he was followed by
Mayor j. j. White of Georgetown
who stated that the people of
Georgetown, and upper end of the
county considered the plan as
one of the best ever put before
the public and the surest way to
restore the mining industry to its
proper plac e among the business
of the country At the close of
Mr.. Whites remarks, Mr.. Mos
script suggested that there be a
meeting held at the room of the
Bureau of Mines and Commerce
Wednesday evening. At this
meeting the proposition of Mr..
Brokaw was discussed and it was
decided that further information
in regard to some of the details of
the working plans of the organi-
ton was desired. A committee
was appointed 10 draft a series OF
questions regarding the matter,
and submit to the main office of
the company for reply. Such has
been done and the reply is now
being awaited.
