MIND VS.. MATTER.

In the days of old when rough
necks bold were bosses of creation, II
was the knight who best could tgh'
who ran his roughneck nation. The
men of wit could only sit and tend
the bully's babies, it was huge frames
and not smart brains that charmed
the stone age ladies. But those OLD
wavs passed with those days, passed
with the clubs and lances, and now
it's brains that wins the games ant
tickle Fortunes glances. Some lit
tie guy Just five feet high can cuss
the loafing diggers because his dome
is not pure bone but calculates and
figgers. Some hunch-back hires, some
cripple fires the rough and hardened
sinner, the skinny man has his Be-
dan, the big brute walks to dinner
The submarine and air machine both
conquered the wild ocean, the Ger
man hordes with guns and swords
were stopped by French devotion.
Yes, mind today has it's own way IN
the old scrap with matter, it brings
content and merriment, it makes your
pay roll fatter.

Keep Liver and Bowels
Clean and Active
with "CaScaretS"

Sick headache, biliousness, coated
tongue, sour, gassy stomach-always
trace this to a torpid liver; delayed.
fermenting food in the bowels.
Poisonous matter clogged in the
intestines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed in the
blood. When this poison reaches
the delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarcts Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
constipatod waste matter and poi
sons in the bowels.

future, of the National Catholic War
Council, Bishop Muldoon will relate a
striking chapter In the history of
American war work and outline a flu

government through the trying times
ahead This is what he has to say
about the work Of his organization:
"The National Catholic War Council
represents the patriotic effort of a
great church. We Catholics believe
with all the intensity Of our nature
that nowhere in the wide world has
the church such freedom and opp0rtu-
nifty as under the Stars and Stripes,
and consequently we feel that we can
not do too much to express our graft
tude and patriotism. We felt II was
not enough that the sons and daugh-

to put into the field an organization
ready to give assistance at all times to

for Review

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Repre-
sentative Graham, Illinois, chairman
of the house war investigating sub
committee, last Wednesday introduc-
ed resolution urging Secretary Ba-
ker to have review made of the set,
Elements of war contracts with eight
corporations, and if it discloses any
irregularities in the settlements to be-
gin proceedings "to recover sums of
money due the government" In the
opinion of the committee, said re
port also submitted by Mr.. Graham
the government may have right to
recover millions of dollars"
The report named the American
Can Company, the Steinburn Camp
and Equipment company, Henry Mo-
ses & Co., Briak Hill Steel company
National Enameling and Stamping
company, Standard Steel Car COM
pany, and the United Metals Selling
company as those investigated by the
committee.
Salvage values, fixed by govern.
ment agents, on special facilities fur
nished by the government to these
corporations, excepting Jones &
Laughlin company and the United
Metals Selling company, were Sin the
opinion of the committee insufficient
and just to the government" the re-
port said.
"In some of the cases cited" the
report added, "they seem to have been
obviously tainted with fraud. Part
of the blame for this condition is due
to rules adopted for the settlement
of such claims and part due to the
Iaxness and ineffciercy of the gov.
eminent representatives. In the case
of the United Metals Selling COM
pany, immense profits were made by
the producers of copper by virtue of
combination of the low-price cop
per producers, which combination was
aided and encouraged by the govern,
ment although in violation of the law
of the land.
''In some of the cases cited, the
committee is Of the opinion that con,
structive if not actual fraud occurr.
ed, vitiating the settlement. The COM
mittee is of the opinion that millions
of dollars are involved in these set
Elements, which the government might
have right to recover if proper re-
view of such settlements were made. J"
The report did not accuse and per
son, or make specific charges agains'
any corporation, but pointed out that
the testimony at committee hearings
was ''too voluminous to be ever brief
ed in this report"
In Chicago recently, Mr.. Graham
after investigating the settlement
made with the Standard Steel com
pany, at Hammond, Ind, declared the
government had been "mulched" Of
100000 to $751; 100000 and that
the committee report would recon-
mend suit for recovery of this sum
also criminal prosecution of several
army officers and civilians. The re-
port, however, does not make these
specific allegations.
Mr.. Graham declined to give de-
tails of alleged Irregularities, but ad-
ded that Specification of Irregular
ties will be made in the house." wher
the resolution is under consideration
Representative Garrett, of Tennes-
see, only democrat member of the
subcommittee, announced that he
would submit a minority report dis
agreeing with the mapority draft sub
mitted by Mr.. Graham for the two
republican committeeman.

The Horse To-day.

What is the future of the horse
in America? Will it pay the farmer
and breeder to raise horses? How
will the tractor and truck affect the
big drafters? Will there be demand
for horses?
In the Country Gentleman of De-
cember 18th Stuart O.Blythe presents
the answers to these important ques-
ions. The war from the American
angle saw demand for almost every
farm product but tho horse. Meat
producing animals were in demand
and it was profitable to raise all
classes of livestock except horses.
AS a result, there has been a severe
falling off in breeding. But the tide
has turned. There is strong de-
mand in city and country to-day
for good big horses, 1872, or over
in height, weighing 100 pounds or
more. If they are sound and right,
they bring 5000. 90, said Wayne Dins-
more, secretary of the Percheron
Breeders Association. Chester G.
Starr, farm advisor of Tazewell
County, Illinois, believes the outlook
in the pure-bred horse business is
better to-day than at any time in
years.
Many of the big breeders are re-
firing from business, however, and
Professor Edmonds, of the Uniyer-
sity of Illinois, one of the country's
leading horsemen, believes that our
future supply of big work horses will
come from the small farm. "a few
to the farm and or a good many
FARMS" is his idea. This means that
we will follow European practice,
by which small farmers, each owning
from two to six mares, have devel-
oped the great breeds of drafters.
Horsemen seem generally to be-
lieve THAI the tractor has come to
stay. Tractors will undoubtedly re-
place some horses" said q. B. White
president OF the Percheron Associa-
tion. "but there will always be q use
for horses on the farm.

Resolution Of Benevolent Order of
Elks.

Whereas, the American Flag is
the emblem of our free government,
wherein rights of persons and pro-
perty are forever guaranteed by writ
ten constitution, and there appears
to be a worldwide movement to sub
vert and destroy these rights by GER
tain organizations and individuals
through actions and propaganda mi
mical to our free American govern
ment and dangerous to our institu
tions; and
Whereas, the Benevolent and Pro-
tective Order of Elks is distinctly
American, advocating and support
ing the constitution and flag of our
country, and condemning all things
and all persons that are in any de-
gree, or in any manner opposed there
to;
Now, Therefore Be 1t Resolved that
the Grand Lodge of the Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks, in an
nual session assembled, does hereby
pledge this Order to use all lawful
means to check and prevent the ex-
tension of the dangerous doctrines
that threaten our free institutions
and our flag, and that no person
shall be permitted to join or remain
in Our Order who openly, or covert
ly, directly or indirectly, gives aid,
comfort, or support to the doctrines,
practices, or purposes of the Bolshe-
Wiki, Anarchists, the I. w. w. or
kindred organizations, or who does
not give undivided allegiance to our
flag and the great principles Of con-
stitutional free government of which
it is the emblem.
