But their way to heaven seems to

colt of Delaware. Mr.. Dennis said that
the Bolsheviki throughout Russia be-
lieve the end justified the means: Their
theory, he said, might be expressed:
IF you are not Bolsheviki get out.
If you work against us we will kill
You"
Mr.. Dennis said he was impressed
that men in position Of power among
the Bolsheviki were to great extent
Russian Hebrews, who had lived in
America a few years.
these men were the most bitter and
timplacable Bolsheviki in their belief to
extermfnate the bourgeois class.

that propaganda into this country" he
was asked. II could not go into court
and prove it, but after going to meet

about the desire to bring about that

replied.

in the next four year period amount
ed to S75637O,O 81.37.
The appropriations in President Ceveland's
first administration were $S1S 1928, 53O.53; in
President Harrison's four years the expenditures
had increased to 81 ,134 1881, 204.87; Mr.. Cleve-
lands second administration cost 1925, 644157-

son period.
Owing to the Spanish-American war, the Nc
Kinley administration rolled up appropriations
amounting to S1,902894, 744.42. Appropriations
in the first Roosevelt administration were ST.
697,811 ,351.s3, while his second term showed

President Taft the total appropriations were
S2,563 849, 21O.84 increase Of $341, 917 49938.
In the first administration of President Wilson
the appropriations reached S3,216,841, 1871, an
increase of 1852, 1892, 512.27.
These figures do not include the large sums
of money spent in the last two years. During
the war; the American people did not criticize
the expenditure of it's money. With the signing
of the arnstice the need for curtailnent became
apparent Today the people will not tolerate a
wholesale expenditure of the public funds.
The time is here when economy must be
practiced in the national household as it is in the
private home. Government officials are incon-
sistent in urging the people to save and practice
thrift while the public funds are being expended
with no thought of the consequences. The people
must pay the appropriations voted by congress.
We cannot go on indefinitely spending money
without providing adequate sources for the reve-
nue., and this can come only by bond issues and
taxation. The point has been reached whene the
people will not favor great bond issues or submit
to further taxation. The place to stop the neces-
sity for increased taxation and bond issues is con-
gress where the appropriations are made.

He was going home and it was grow
ing dark. His road from the station
was a lonely one, and he was getting
along as fast as he could when he
suddenly suspected that man behind
was following him purposely. The
faster he went the faster the man fol-
lowed until they came to church
yard.
Now he said to himself, ''I'll find
out if he's after me-" and he entered
the churchyard. The man followed
him. Vague visions Of revolvers and
loaded clubs grew upon him. He
lodged round a grave and his pursuer
lodged after him. He made a detour
Of a family vault. Still the man was
after hin. At last he turned and faced
the fellow.
What do you want? What are you
following me for?"
We'll, sir, it's like this. I'm going
up to Mr.. Fitzbrown's house with a

Joan


Joan Is the feminine counterpart Of
John and yet it has never had the
common vogue of that most popular
of male proper names. Joan signifies
gift Of the Lord" and there is con-
siderable question as to whether its
origin was English or Teutonic.
At any event, the name first made
it's appearance as Joanna and is said
to have originated with Joanna, holy
woman of the Gospel. She was never
canoniZed, so it Is believed that the
name was adopted rather in honor of
one OF the Saint Johns than a 5 trib-
ute to her, particularly as there are
thirty feasts Of Saint John on the Ro-
man calendar and only two in honor
of Joanna.
In the Twelfth Century. the name
began TO be used with inexplicable
frequency in southern France, when
ladies named Juana in Spanish, and
Jehanne or Jeanne in France mar
ried into every royal family Of the
time. The first English princess SO
called, was the daughter of Henry II;
indeed, almost every king had a
daughter, Joan or Jhone.
Joan Makepeace was the name Civ
en- TO the daughter Of Edward II. when
the long war with the Bruces was
partly pacified by her marriage. An
other famous Joan was Joan Beau
fort, the maiden rOmanticaQy beloved
by the captive James |. as his widow,

from Joan through the German fav

Government Cost Increasing at Alarming
Rate

The expenses of the federal government are
increasing at such an alarming rate that unless
stringent methods are adopted to curtail the out
flow Of money, the burden will soon become an
.onerous one for the people of this country. Rep
resentative Williams of Illinois recently offered
to the House the results of an investigation
which he had made.
Eve find that from 1877 down to 1917"
said Mr.. Williams, "a period of forty years, the
expenditures for operation of the federal govern
1nent have increased more than 500 per cent.
This certainly is most startling fact, and if the
same ratio of increase obtains the next forty
years we will find congress appropriating annual
lily something like $4,000, 100000"
These figures do not include the expenditures
caused by the World war Going back to the
Hayes administration, Mr. Williams showed the
country had population of 45OOO,0OO, while the
appropriations of congress for the year 1877
were only $88, 1885, 8313. The next year the ap-
preparations increased to SIZE, O16,8 O921. The
total appropriations for the four years of the
Hayes administration were S578, 500, 23642. APP

BY RUBBING WITH LINZ
MENTS AND ONT
MENTS.

If you are one of the many
thousand victims Of torturing
Rheumatism, make up your
mind today that you will aban-
don your efforts to rub the dis
ease away with liniments, To-
tions, ointments, and local appli-
cations. Such treatment by it
self is not only futile and devoid
of results, but is a waste of time,
during which the disease is get
ting a firnaer hold on your sys-
tenn.
Rheumatism is stubborn
disease. 1t is not on the sur
face, therefore you must not
expect to be able to cure it with
remedies applied to the surface.
No one ever yet effected per-
manent cure in this way, so why
should you continue to suffer
while relying upon treatment
that has failed in thousands of
cases?
The experience of others af-
flicted with rheumatism is your
best guide, and by following
their advice you can not only
save yourself untold suffering,
but rid yourself of a disease that
will eventually wreck your body
and leave you helpless. Almost
every victim of Rheumatism has
practically the same experience.
They are so impressed with the
pains and suffering of the dis
ease and are so anxious to get
rid of them that they have treat
ed the pains alone, and overlook
ed their cause. They have rub
bed with liniments, lotions and
ointments in an effort to get
temporary relief, with no chance
of doing themselves any per-
manent good.
Such was the experience of
Mr.. Caspus Bibb, of 2424 Tenth
Avenue, Bessemer, Ala, who
writes to tell how he found relief
from this terrible affliction.
He says:

natism that rendered me almost

no fear Of exposure 10 the worst
sort of weather. I feel it my duty
to, recommend 5. 5. s. to all who
wish to free themselves from the
torturing clutches OF rheumatism"
Physicians now agree that
many forms of rheumatism are
caused by a germ in the blood.
The pain is not the disease itself,
but merely a symptom-nature's
warning to you that you have
been attacked. The only intel
ligent treatment, therefore, is
through the blood; treatment
directed toward eliminating the
disease germ from the blood.
For years nearly all the pre-
scriptions used by the medical
profession were those contain
ing iodide of potash or mer-
curial substances, but in nearly
every case these minerals are
more injurious to the system
than the disease itself.
One reason why S. S. S. is so
successful in the treatment of
rheumatism and other blood
disorders is the fact that it is a
purely vegetable remedy, being
made from roots and herbs
gathered direct from the forests.
1t contains not a particle of min
eral substance, and acts by driv-
ing disease germs from the
blood and cleansing it of all i'm
purities. S. S. S. has been on
the market for fifty years, and
almost every druggist has sold
it ever since he has been in bust
ness. 1t is sold under an abso-
lutte guarantee that it is purely
vegetable.

the afflicted, and if you will
