NO POLITICS
IN HIS SPEECH
Candidate for Governor of iowa Made
Memorial Day Address at
Exercises Held UP
at Salem.

SALEM, Iowa, June 1.--This pio-
neer town, founded as Quak er
settlement before Iowa was state,
for years one of the most important
underground railroad stations, with
a plat of ground In its cemetery, set
off for the bodies of escaping slaves,
held it's Memorial day exercises will
a very large number or people
present from all the surrounding
country.
On this ground. where attempts to
regain escaped slaves were success
fully frustrated before Iowa sent its
soldiers to the war between the
states, J. F. Deems, candidate for
governor, made the address of the
day without any political tinge to
his speech.
Law must always be supreme,
while law must always be flexible
within the best interests Of the
people," Deems said, "and on these
principles rests now and always that
true Americanization, for which the
men we honor today fought and died.
They fought and died for these prin-
ciples. as their fathers founded then,
in the constitution, and the men OF
the civil war and the men of the
world war call upon us to perpetuate
them"
After referring to present condl-
tions, Deems said:
"The supreme need now is re-
turn to the old fashioned christianity,
thrift and industry that made our
nation grow in a little over cen
., fro,n q few struggling colonies
to the greatest on earth.
Deems paid a high tribute 10 the
soldiers of all our wars, ana SAID the
greatest need today is sturd1er.
more forceful Americanism among all
the people, such as the soldiers hon.
ored today exhibited.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
Years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years Of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
cumulated impurities, commonly called
uric acid deposits. were dissolved IN
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind Ihe consulted
physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded prescription
that quickly and completely banished
every sign and symptom of rheumatism
from his system.
4 He freely gave his discovery to
Others who took it. with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf-
ferers everywhere know about his dis
'covery through the newspapers. Your,
druggist has been appointed agent for
iAllenrhu in this vicinity with the un-
derstanding that he will freely return.

Gray hair. however handsome, de.

the advantages Of a youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When 1t

just a few applications Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances its appearance
a hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young!
Either prepare the recipe at home
Or get from any drug store a bottle
Of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old
tine recipe improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients. Thousands
of folks recommend this ready-to-use
preparation, because it darkens the
hair beautifully; besides, no one can
possibly tell, as it darkens SO natur.
ally and evenly. You moisten a
sponge or soft brush with it, draw
ing this through the hair, taking one
small strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an.
other application or two, its natural
cclor is restored and it becomes
thick. glossy and lustrous, and you

II was in a mighty bad fix for ten

it." was the remarkable statemen,

my stomach was all upset" sail
Mr.. Houghton, "and my appetite was
very poor. What little l did manage
to eat caused sour gas to form on my
stomach and sometimes ! became so
nauseated that ! couldn't retain a
thing. This gas pressed up around
my heart and caused such fearful
Ipalpitating spells that it alarmed me
and if l had to hurry ZIP a little to
catch a street car, got so short of
breath that / though 1 was going 20
give out and fall right down in the
street. My kidneys bothered me ter
iribly and / don't believe that the
lpains in my back would have hurt
me more If someone had been stab
lbing me with knife. l also had
rheumatism in both my arms which
hurt me so bad couldn't even raise
my hands above my head.
"Well sir. I'm mighty glad /
started taking Tanlac, for it has GER
tainly helped me remarkably. l have
taken FIVE bottles now and it has
built me up from one hundred and
forty-five pounds until I tip the
scales at one hundred and sixty. I
eat anything ! want and am never
troubled with Indigestion, gas, short
ness of breath, or palpitation of the
heart. My kidneys don't bother ME
ANY more either, and the rheumatism
has entirely disappeared from MY
arms. consider Tanlac the best
medicine made and gladly recommend
lit to anyone suffering with rheuma-
