These sores are difficult to heal and are a great drain on the already

The first sign of a bed sore evident to a nurse is redness which does
not disappear when pressure is removed. later there is a dark discoIora-

does not complain at ALL and unless the nurse IS watchful a bed sore

REPUBLICAN EFFRONTERY.
buffalo Ncws.)

In a recent speech in Philadelphia, Rep. Gflett
of Massachusetts, whom the republicans have
chosen for speaker. called Prest Wilson a dreamer
and an idealist. More than that, Mr.. Gillett said the
president lis an egoist; ne is not a man of practical
affairs" And the republican leader added: The
people do not want a repetition Of the INDIGESTION,
apparent aimlessness and laundering Of the past few
years i'm Washington"
The record Of the democratic party during the
last several years of C 7trOl Will bear comparison
with that set up by the republicans who held the
reins of government unbrOkenly from 1896 10 1912.
Mr.. Ginetrs party conducted the war with Spain.
As wars 60, it wasn't much of a war; about one per
cent as large an undertaking as our part in the
world war. which was conducted with about 100
times as much efficiency. II wasn't fought long
enough ago for the public 10 have forgotten the en-
balmed-becf scandal. the kind Of food the soldiers
ate: the plaques that swept them away in the camps

on "a litter. and who owed his pfeferment 10 his

pare the record of Shafter. in Cuba with a handful
of men. with that of Pershing in France with two
million. and then think Of the impudence of repub-
ucars in mentioning such a thing as "indecision,'
"aimlessness," or laundering"
During successive administrations from 1895 TO
1912. republicans talked TO banking reform: the
democrats established the federal reserve system;
republicans talked Of farm loans: the democrats es-
tabishcd the farm loan bank system under which
farmers have borrowed nearly 100000. 600 at q low
rate Of interest and on very long terms. The demo-
cratic administration substituted deeds for words.
Americas achievements in the past two years
astounded her allies and overwhelmed her enemies;
they are the brightest page in history-and they
were accomplished under the leadership Of a man

More Truth Than Poetry
By James J. Montague
SILVER STRIPES AMONG THE GOLD.


And while we are speaking of heroes
And we re doing il every day.
As our fighting men march home again,
And the bands and bugles play,
Let US speak of the fameless heroes
The heroes that missed their chance
To risk their ALTO fight or fall
On the shell swept fields of France.
Eager and keen and ready.
When the call for men rang clear,
Knowing the price, and the sacrifice.
They quietly answered: 'Herel'
Eager and keen and ready
For death or for deathless fame,
Their heavy fate was to wait-and wait.
For the order that never came.
But grim and game to the finish.
Loyal and staunch and true,
Their hopes denied. they turned aside
To the tasks that they found to do.
They trained new fighting units,
They sent out r%ations, and guns,
And twas by their aid that our armies made
An end of the Kaiser Huns.
So, while we are speaking of heroes,
And we're doing it every day,
AS our fighting men march home again
And the bands and the bugles play,
While loud we sound the praises
OF the men who licked the foe,
Let's give a cheer. right now and here
For the fellows who couldn't gol
