Colds

Doctors declare that every winter
thousands Of lives are needlessly sac
rificed through neglect Of what at
first is a simple cold.
There is grave danger in allowing
a cold to wear off," It Is more
often likely to wear away the lungs
and start the development Of pneu-
monia or other serious throat or lung
trouble.
At the first sign of a cold you
should start taking Father Johns
Medicine. which is doctors pre-
scription with more than sixty years
of success in the treatment Of colds
and coughs.
The gentle laxative effect of Father
Johns Medicine drives out impurities
and the tonic food elements build
new health and strength to ward off
further attacks Of disease.
Another important point to remem-
Der is that Father Johns Medicine is
guaranteed free from alcohol or dan
gerous drugs in any form so it is a
safe medicine for all the family to
Itake.-Adv.

The countrys Choice Of Party.


As the election returns sift in with
the accompanying straws indicative
of the country's attitude toward the
two leading political parties ones
prejudices, as usual, will doubtless
interfere somewhat with reading the
signs Alright, and some there probably
will be who will refuse to listen to
what their instinct tells them. One
feature there is no blinking. the one
unmistakable ism that is unques-
tionably popular is Americanism and
there is a general scramble to get
aboard the band wagon.
There was no scramble when Gov
ernor Coolidge accepted the gauge Of
battle. Throughout the country
there was widespread apprehension
lest the forces of disorder should be
able to play politics with public lead
ers as Turkey for centuries has
played her Misunderstanding one
against the other. Not only that.
but when a powerful labor organiza-
ton took the Administration by the
throat and forced it to yield tribute
necks in general became sensitive
and sensations of tightness about the
collar were not uncommon.
Possibly you have noticed a change
the past few weeks and surely do not
find the cause far to seek. A clear,
definite purpose was crystalliZing in
the minds of the people to have done
for a while at least-with pussy
footing and piffling, with mushy
idealism and reckless lawlessness.
They were getting ready, should
union of these elements be pro-
posed, to forbid the banns. Straight
forward. constructive work by sound
methods-and have done. with ex-
perimenting and gambling with the
materials at hand-somethfng like
that we think was in the minds of
men when they voted at this last
election. And 1t is noticeable that
the Democrats If singing at all are at
least not singing MY Maryland" in
anything above a minor key: that
the Democrat who was elected in
New Jersey speaks in defiance Of the
sentiment that has outlawed booze,
also that no injunction has been is
sued from headquarters.
A line of cleavage between reac-
tionary and visionary, occasionally
concealed long enough for the party
to get into power. is now seen to be
a noticeable assure. It is idle to ex-
>pect other results Of an organization
Of the dissatisfied, the discordant
elements. occupied as they are with
protesting against what is rather
than taking what is" and doing
something worth while with it.
The Republican party is being
looked to in the confident hope
that 1t will be true to itself. for il SO
it will be true to the country's best
aspirations.

Editorial Comment
(Portland Press)

The French have a phrase which
they commonly use when they desire
anything done with celebrity. 1t is
tout de suite" and the men in the
American Exreditionary force heard
it frequently and often improved
upon it to express a desire for even
greater celebrity than tout de suite
called for. The Americans were
wont to say "do such and such a
thing tout de suite" and the ''tooter
the sweeter." This phrase with its
Americanized version is exactly what
the people would like to have i'm
pressed upon the United States Sem
ate. They want the peace treaty
ratified tout de suite" and ''the
tooter the sweeter."
