His Third Teeth at "a.

teeth at the age OF 81.
Mr.. Starr. who Is In the employ
OF the Memphis Artesian Water
Company. recently found himself in
need OF set OF these artificial sub
stitutes for the teeth provided by
nature. But when he visited his
dentist the price was too high, and
he decided to go toothless. However.
thru one of the unaccountable hap
penings which sometimes upset all
rules, Mr.. Starr discovered that he
was cutting IL new teeth. They are
almost thru now. altho they are not
very useful yet, owing to the fact
that his gums are sore.
Dentists doubtless Vim contend
that such thing can not happen.
But Mr.. Starr knows that he now
has teeth where no teeth were before.
Moreover, he says his eyesighs II
better than 1t was several years ago.
and that, SO far from his vigor being
impaired by advancing years, he feels

REVIVE THE RIVER.
Huntington HaWkeye.l


One OF the big problems confronting
the nation Il that OF transportation.
It looms largest for those who an
4uaiiy have much to trAnsport--as
for instance the farmers OF Iowa It
IL evident. that the railroads are not
able to handle the business OF the
country. They have not Kept pace
with the growth OF the country. That
fact was known and the subject Of
frequent comment long before the
war and before the unfortunate and
very costly experiment with public
ownership. that was made by Wood
row Wilson and that isE still costing
the country immense sunls.
That the problem OF Transportation
should puzzle the people OF state,
that II bounded on the east ana the
west by great rivers does not seem
highly complimentary to these peo-
pie. The rivers that served as the
highways Of commerce, az almost the
only road by which Iowa could be
reached in the early days. are de-
sorted today. As to the cause OF that
condition. opinions differ. Many hold
that the railroads did 1t. if 50, they
did fsslish thing. For the two com

SIGNS ON THE HIGHWAY.

Attorney General Havner has held
that advertising signs have no right
on the public highway. His reason
Ing is clear "a public highway from
side to side and end to end belongs
10 the pubic no person has a
right to appropriate a part of the
highway to his own use by using 1t
for the posting of signs"
The decision was rendered in the
case Of Cerro Gordo county which
has ordered out all advertising signs
along the roads Of the county. It is
jof course applicable to every county
in the state.
Fundamentally advertising signs
are OF no particular value. Long ex-
iperience has convinced judicious adj
vertisers that the newspapers are the
one medium which give one ones
moneys worth. Why do signs exist?
because smooth statesmen are keen
enough to sell advertising signs as
the same type of salesman can sell
blue sky stock. One of the best IL
Illustrations of this Is in signs which

way Association as they are carried

Everywhere You, go you see them.
You face sign post which tells you
|of the turn or crossing which you
ARE approaching. That is all.
The Tribune knows Of no more
certain way for the Lincoln Highway
Association to come into disrepute
than by sponsoring such questionable
advertising. And aside from that
propositions clearly moral one
whether the Lincoln Highway AS
ISOLATION, or any other association or
individual has the right to use the
highway to advertise personal bust
ness. The attorney general has dis
tinctly said that 1t has not.
The Tribune knows of no reason
why the public should suffer such an
imposition. The advertising is of
questionable value. And it has no
right on the road. Furthermore it
is hfdecus, blot upon the otherwise

A FEARFUL OBLIGATION.

Il
There is one proposition to which
there is not dissenting voice, and
that ii that there ought to be peace
IN the world. There is another
proposition. however, and that per-
tains&to American responsibility to
the world peace. This question is
how many lives should be put In the
balance, and how many dollars
should we pile up? American people
thought they had done enough in
spending money. and in loanine
money, and in the sacrifice Of our
young men. But it seems that there
is no peace. The American people
thought when they had assisted in
whipping Germany, and had de-
throned the kaiser Europe could take
care of herself. Europe is supposed
to he inhabited by intelligent people.
The Americans gave Europe a chance
to establish new governments. and
to smooth out old difficulties, but

we would now be at war with the

mothers would now be weeping again
for the departure Of their sons to the
hell that was brought upon this

And what for? To back the ag-

NO TROUBLE TO BUY COAL
TManaon DAmOcrof

We havn't had the least bit of
trouble in buying coal this year, in
spite Of the stories that you hear to
the contrary. All we had to do was
to 90 to TIE dealer and order a car
load of Illinois coal. He accepted
our order-they don't solicit OF take
orders any more, but just accept
them-and told us II would be ship
ped Just as soon as possible. That
was over two months ego. The coal
is ours. because we have bought ie
We are positive of that. All that re-
mains for US to do now is to get
somebody to dig the coal out OF the
ground for US and then get q car
spotted at the mine track to load it
into. after which we are sure the
railroads will haul 1t for US when
they get ready. It's easy to buy coal
II you are a good business man and
know how.
