The Capitalist Press, The Toiler and You

The power of Capitalism rests upon it's
ability to fool, to lie to, and keep the workers
in ignorance This it accomplishes through its
thousands of controlled daily papers.
Papers that constantly lie to the workers
are not good papers for the workers TO sup
port Yet they do it. The capitalist papers fool
them into doing it. Because the greater portion
of the workers are thus fooled into supporting
these lying sheets the worth while working
class papers have hard struggle to Live.
Instead Of allowing themselves 10 be dup
ed into financing the very papers that constant
ly lie to them, INTELLIGENT workers will
DO EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER to
SUPPORT THEIR OWN PAPERS.
The Toiler is in the vanguard Of working
class publications The best proletarian writers
write for it. The best cartoonists drawn for it.
The most intelligent portion Of the workers
believe in IT'S principles. 1t deserves the sup
port of all who want the workers to learn the
truth.
The costs of publishing The Toiler have
doubled within the past year. News print paper
is more than 100 per cent higher than year
ago. We need your help to build up PAPER
FUND to purchase print paper. The question

for you to answer is Are you willing to give
as many pennies for the TRUTH now as you
are for LIES?
We mean NOW - net tomorrow, not next
week, not at some distant future time when
it becomes convenient, but NOW while you
are reading this = NOW WHILE WE NEED
1T BADLY.
Of course we know that you have been
thinking about it, Many are doing so but
just thinking is not doing. We have many read
ers who have already done far better than just
think about it. They have transmitted their
thoughts into actions and have made their
generous remittances.
THEY HAVE HELPED - because they
ACTED.
And action is what counts Action is what
gets us to where we are going Action in this
matter is what is needed now, right now. We
want your help, we have to have your help if
we are to continue publication at the high
prices we must pay to get The Toiler out each
week.
Now then, don't delay. We ask you to not
only think, but to act Act now. Send us your
contribution to the Paper Fund

SUFFERED ten YEARS
FROM INDIGESTION
Trouble Gone, Appetite Strong, and
Eats Anything Without
Distress.

II had a case of catarrh and indiges-
ton, OF ten years standing. 1 had been
treated by the best medical men in Mich
igan. When 1 commenced taking Milks
Emulsion, l was in bed. / improved so
fast that 1 kept the neighbors wondering.
l am now up and working every day. My
cough is gone. My appetite is great. and
l can eat anything without hurting me-"
III. D. Lovelee, Rockford, Mich.
Indigestion is seldom cured by "help-
ing' the stomach digest food. Dgestives,
like physic pills, usually make slaves OF
the stomach and bowels.
Milks Emulsion Is a pleasant, nutri-
tive food and a corrective medicine. 1t re-
stores healthy, natural bowel action, do
ing away with all need of pills and phys
les. 1t promotes appetite and quickly
puts the digestive organs in shape to
assimilate food. AS a builder of flesh
and strength, Milks Emulsion is strongly
recommended to those whom sickness has
weakened. and is a powerful aid in re-
sisting and repairing the effects of vast
ing diseases. Chronic stomach trouble
and constipation are promptly relieved
usually In one day. 1t produces remark
able results in colds, coughs and bron-
chial asthma.
This is the only solid emulsion made.
and so palatable that 1t Is eaten with
spoon like ice cream. Truly wonderful
for weak, sickly children.
No matter how severe your case. you
are urged to try Milks Emulsion under
this guarantee-Take six bottles home
with you, use 1t according to directions
and If not satisfied with the results, your
money will be promptly refunded. Price

AGAIN THE TERRIBLE TURK!
Details Of Tragedy Which for Some
Reason Did Not "Make" the
First Page.

Early dawn was spreading over the
valley. The first suns rays were
stealing over the white houses far be-
low.
They were standing still, watching
the maturing beauties of nature.
Dear" said she gushingly, '1ook
at the beautiful sunrise"
"Just look at the lovely dewdrop, "
he cried appreciatiyely.
Indeed, the dew was sweet. Their
feet were soaked with it and it fell
down on their uncovered heads,
drenched them quietly.
"And that waterfall-how gorguss !"
she murmured, turning around to
whence came the mighty sounds.
He started to move. "Oh, don't
go yet" she pleaded.
"But I'm hungry" he said. II want
my breakfast"
"Oh, Hoppy, let's hunt for some
breakfast-here in the fields. We
might find"
Here she stopped and her eyes di-
lated in terror WOnderingly, and
as though sensing some danger, he
looked, too. Small wonder she
stopped-froze in her tracks, for if
ever an evil, murderous-loOking, blood
thirsty face leered into theirs, it was
the face of the sinister Turk.
Then arousing himself from his tor
por the lover uttered Shrek of ter
ror and dragged his loved one along
with him as he went.
The Turk-a wonderful specimen
he was, tOO-with a wicked wink, let
them flee some distance. Then cOolly,
deliberately, he followed.
The poor frightened creatures never
looked back and the willy Turk never
lost sight of them. Suddenly he made
up his mind and leaped toward them.
Oh, if they could but get safely be-
hind some trees-Or hide in the dark
corner of some hidden cave.
But no! Twas not to be Doggone
if it was. The only place left them
to escape from the terrible turk was
the cool, inviting waters beneath the
roaring torrent.
Alas Fer they reached the surg
ing surgery to escape from more ter
rible death, the red-faced, hungry
turkey was upon them and gObbled
the two little grasshoppers up at one
goOble.-Detroit Free Press.

PILE OF NEWSPAPERS
OF MUCH ASSISTANCE
Worked Under Wheels, They Help
Motorist Out of Mud.
Method of Handling Difficult Situation
So Simple and So Uniformly Sue
cessfui That Every Driver
Should Know Of 1t.

From mOtorist who lives in Sec
comes suggestion which its author
guarantees as the best remedy for such
a situation short of pair of husky
mules. He states that he has tried the
method on numerous occasions, and
that it has never failed to work. He
says:
Il always have stored away some
where in my car a stack of old news
papers. They don't take up so much
room but that can always find place
for them. When l strike mudhole
and the wheels begin to fly around In
that exasperating way which tells me
that am firmly and definitely stuck,
l get out my bundle of papers.
Taking a newspaper / fold it in
half horizontal across the page and
proceed to the task Of working the
paper between the tire and the mud.
This is simple matter, and is accom-
plished by feeding the paper while the
wheels are being revolved. I feed the
paper in lengthwise. Usually only
few will have been worked in when
the tires will begin to grip and the
car start forward. If few won't
do the work, keep on feeding in the
papers until good traction Is gained.
'This method of handling difficult
situation is so simple and SO uniform
ly successful that every mOtorist should
know it. If he is not equipped with
some other apparatus for such con-
tingency, he should always have
little pile. Of newspapers stored away
in some empty place in his car.
''In many localities it might be pos
sible for motorist to get old news
papers from neighboring houses; but
when the -mishap occurs in some lonely
spot, lucky is the man who has some
newspapers in his machine"

1T doesn't work." he announced,
dolefully 'T've done as you advised,
but she might as well be dead as far
as any effort she's made to see me-"
1t began to look like failure for Rich
ard Jerome, love mediator.
Wen have to try a new plan," he
said after a pause, during which he
resorted to the ancient corncob. Call
her up and tell her you've got to see
her just once more. Then go to it.
Tell her you're desperately in love,
and that she must marry you. Be a
cave man within reasonable limits"
Three days later Mr.. Mania ap-
peared for the third time, and this
time he was wretchedness personified.
ITS all over" he cried bitterly,
kicking over Richards waste basket.
"She says she doesn't love me and
will not marry me. She says I'm
nice enough sort of a chap, but she
doubts that have real character. For
one thing Pm too young, according to
her ideas. She wants an older man."
He could not evade the fact that he
had come face to face with his first
failure as Cupid.
'In fact" Mr.. Mania resumed, "she
told me there was one man in this
town that she admired and has loved
for four years. He's rather old for
girl like me- she said, but I'd jump
at the chance to marry him. Some day,
perhaps. he'll come my way, but If he
doesn't I'll never marry at ALL"
Richard emptied the ashes from the
pipe and filled it again. He struck
match and was preparing to apply the
flame to the tobacco when his client
went on:
"The funny part of it is, Julia has
never been in this mans society but
once four years ago, when she was his
partner on Sunday school hayride."
Richard dropped the match sudden
ly. 1t had burned his finger. He sat
putting, but getting no smoke, and
asked:
"What did you say is her nameT
"Julia Roth" was the response.
The corncob fell and sprinkled un-
lighted tobacco over the floor, while
in his mouth Richard retained the
broken stem. He rose and took his hat
from a peg on the wall.
''I'm SORRY" he said, as Mr.. Mania
prepared to leave. 'I'm dead sorry for
you; but I've got to admit that for
once have failed as a heart doctor"
They stepped toward the door, list
lessness in Mr.. Mania's gait, while in
Richards there was an unaccustomed
vigor. He opened the door and paused.
81 don't mind letting you in on
little secret" he said, and his eyes
were bright. "Tve loved that girl ever
since the hayride, but-well, l have
been a pretty good adviser in the love
affairs of others, but when it came to
mine"
He placed an arm on the others
