To Pale, Weak People!

20 lot everybody needs iron.
Many people have enough in
II their blood. Additional iron taken
into the system is in such cases,
thrown out as useless.
How 10 tell your system needs iron2
Simple enough, If you study your state OF
health.
When you are pale, and look as If you
needed more red blood.
When you are weak, tired;-lack mental
and physical energy.

what you eat seems 10 bring you no new
strength.

the beach.
Keep out Of rough water IL you are

HARDING CAN'T

Suffragists Displeased With
The Action OF The Ohio
Senator

tBy Associated Press to The Banner1
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Harding received a group of slffrag-
lists yesterday and in reply to their
request for statement of his posi-.
tion on the suffrage question, de-
clared that while he could not, with
propriety, attempt to force any state
to hasten action on the federal suf.
frage amendment, he would recon-
mend ratification should any state Of
flcially seek his opinion.
The suffragists. numbering 2G from
81 states, through their spokesman
Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the Ma
tional Woman's party, in presenting
their request made yelled threats OF
throwing their support to third par
ty unless ratification of the suffrage
amendment was completed through
action OF Republican state legisla
ture.
Miss Paul, In statement las,

THE FREIGHT RATES

There is evidently going to be a
row when the new railroad freigh,
increases are announced. 1t is ac
cepted by nearly everybody that there
must be increases, because the rail
roads, whether operated publicly or
privately, do not seem able to live on
their present income. But nobody
wants to pay his part of the increase.
The farmers have been the first i'm
portant class to register their pro-
test. The Kansas State Grange urges
the interstate commission to avoid
discriminating against agriculture in
ticular reference to grain rates, and
is supported in this by the grain
dealers.
Farmers do not ask discrimination
in rates on farm products" says the
spokesman OF the grange, "but we do
vigorously protest against discrimina-
and we wish to express our disapprov.
al of the demands heard here in
which narrow commercial or sec.
tional interests have been seeking
selfish advantages"
This sounds fair and reasonable.
Farmers, naturally, must bear fair
share Of the burden, but they should
certainly bear no more, and II there
is to be discrimination at all 1t might
well be in their favor Their indus
try Is the greatest and most widely
diffused Of all Industries. Their prod.
ucts are the most essential to the ma.
tion. Any undue imposition on them
will discourage food production at a
time when it's stimulation is impera-
tive, and raise its cost when food
prices are already oppressively high.

THE GLOOMY PROFESSOR

A writer in the New York Times
deplores the pessimistic spirit in the
baccalaureate addresses which he has
heard read this June. He says that
to the brave young spirits just ready
to take up their lives In the business
and professional world. society has
been depicted as In a state of decad-
ence which fairly smells OF sulphur.
They have been told that the world
today is full OF selfshness, OF coward
ice and dishonesty and selfinterest.
One revered professor even went so
far as to tell the young men before
whom he lectured that the young wo.
man of today "has lost the aura OF
mystery which was once her glory
and her defense, and when woman
hood Is lightly regarded or recklessly
scorned. It has always proved n symp
tom of decadence, far-reaching ant
disastrous"
TO all OF which, the writer referred
to submits:
"As for the aura of mystery II On

SCHOOL TEACHER AND HIGHWAY

Several counties in Kentucky have
recently announced that they will
build Immediately the sections of the
Mayo Trail highway which lie in their
territory. This highway is interest
ing for several reasons quite aside
from the recognized Importance Of all
good highways and the present great
need of them.
The Mayo Trail is to pass through
the most beautiful scenic section of
the state, and will traverse the very
center of Kentucky's rich coal lands.
The road when complete will be $50
miles long and will open up noun
tain district which has been practi-
cally inaccessible except by the rail
road which came into the coal fields.
This important new highway is
named for former mountain school
teacher. 1t was through his efforts
that the coal fields of that region
were first opened up. Now highway
named in his memory is coming into
the country, bringing at once easier
travelling facilities and improved ship
ping conditions, and later bringing
better schools and closer contact with
communities in other sections of Ken.
