found only twenty words like liberty,
could add suffrage, but it is not yet
ours" he added.
1--WE had the chance to do for de-
mocracy great things. Then the dis
patches said: The president Of
France welcomed the president Of
America in a royal manner and the
next morning his apartments were
described as 'princely.' and the thing
we had just been trying to kill with
a million men was set up again
royalty, autocracy!"
He said Americans were not inter
ested in the Prince Of Wales, and his
princely habits, and what he wore,
and questioned what he would wear
if he were left in an America city with
his own way to make.
An Englishman Americans would
like to see is Lloyd-George, the coal
miner who went to parliament" said
he.
How do you expect young men to
love America when the political offices
are filled with the men they are?" he
asked You may run Austria with
an ignorant king, but you can't run a
republic with riff-raff."

Spirits of War; Autocracy; Are
Still Alive; Says Edward OFT

THE world war did not begin In
1914: it did not end in 1918. Instead,
the spirit Of war began when Cain
slew Abel and it is not yet dead" said
Edward Amherst OFT In a lecture on
Victory" Tuesday evening before
crowded tent.
OFT does not merely enumerate ma
tional crimes and cures. He takes
great facts that the ordinary thinker
had perhaps entirely overlooked and
Eliminates them in language which
can not fail to carry it's own truth.
OFT is a live speaker with a live mes
sage and his audience in the big tent
Tuesday evening got that message.
I'VE may have just won military
victory in Europe, but an ultimate
victory over many other vices Is not
vet ours I do not know when this
world will be safe for democracy, but
when democracy will be perfected Will
depend a good deal upon our earnest
ness to finish what our boys started
in France.
War is not over-the Chicago riots
proved that. The Civil war is not yet
over. We have at last built monu-
ment to Lincoln, OF course, but even
that binds east and west instead OF
binding the north and south. No, war
and crime is not over You may whip
the Kaiser, but that does not mean
that you have a more democratic city
to live in.
French Refuse Suffrage.
"The very French women who did
so much to help win the war have just
been refused the right to vote or to
have any share in the French govern
ment. You see they yet have only a
military victory"
1--WE have schools in which there is
no democracy in the organization.
The teachers do not even get ref
erendum on naming the text books.
They are chosen instead by a group of
politicians. We have churches in
which one or two men choose the min
lister; one or two men run the church.

Look at your rituals! Where did you
get them? Where did you get that

other great student of our ideals have
written such stuff? I think it's time
we changed them to American fratern

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Is Prepared For
Woman's Use

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the
reliability. accuracy. skill and clean
illness which attends the making Of
this great medicine for woman's ills.
Over 100000 pounds of various
herbs are used annually and all have
to be gathered at the season of the
year when their natural juices and
medicinal substances are at their
best.
The most successful solvents are
used to extract the medicinal prop
critics from these herbs.
Every utensii and tank that comes
in contact with the medicine is ster-
ilized and as a final precaution in
cleanliness the medicine is pasteur-
lied and sealed in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in it's preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment of fe-
male ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub.
fishing attest to its virtue.-Adv.
