The Presidency.

Senator Harding and his party now
and the country later if he is elected
President, will profit by his splendid
physique. He looks, and is, capable
of a good deal of hard work. And
there is a good deal of hard work to
be done. One has only to look at the
candidates card for a day-any day
every day-to appreciate the physical
strength necessary. All sorts of ques-
tions are presented for consideration
and decision. Conferences tread upon
each others heels, 80 fast they follow.
Nobody with any claim to attention is
denied an audience.
And the ball has just opened. For
four months the campaign grind will
continue, with increasing exaetions.
That front-porch feature, which for
so ready a talker as the senator looks
easy, will yet tax him. He must meet
all sorts and conditions of people, and
discuss questions of wide variety. An
uneonsidered utteranee might prove
annoying, and even expensive.
And then if elected he must give
four months to conferences about this,
that and the other thing pressed upon
him fer attention. A cabinet will
have to be selected. Policies will have
to be shaped promptly, for a special
session of the new Congress is likely
to be imperative, and that body will
look to the President for suggestions
as to its course.
Then, after Inauguration day, four
years of anxiety and labor will be-
gin; and they will be crowded with
questions requiring research and care
full thinking out.
We work President to the limit,
mentally and physically. He is, in
very literal sense, servant of the
people. Their interests are of many
kinds, and he is expected to guard and
advance them all. And yet, despite
the laber and anxiety it imposes, the
presidency remains the prize lure, and
men seek the Office with ardor.

requirements of that group and with

requirements Of that group and with
drew support. The trouble seems to
be that nobody exactly knows the pre-
else difference between a majority So
cialist and a social democrat, the peo-
pies party and the democratic party.
And Furthermore, everybody seems sus-
picious of everybody else on the score
of possible monarchist leaninss. Then
there is another difficulty. A chan
cellor must not show any tendency
whatever to do business with the allies
on the score of the full treaty terms,
and yet he must be rated as diplomat
enough to prevent the allies from fore
closing to enforce terms. So that if
anybody really aspires to this job he
must be prepared for trouble. Thus
far no German has managed to make
the combination. Meanwhile Presi-
dent Ebert is worried. Reports indi
cate that he is losing flesh. He is not
altogether sure of his own job. He
must have a strong ministry in order
to keep things going on an admins
trative plan. The recent elections re-
suited in such a wide scattering of
groups that only some big issue is
likely to coalesce part of them into a
bloc. Should the allied
supreme council fix the indemnit!
terms at figures that sufficiently shock
the German economic sensihilities the
requisite issue may be supplied. But
the chancellor who can get domestic
support on such ground will have
his troubles abroad when it comes to
putting through his program of op-
position. The job, therefore, is still
open.

Another Bunch Of Initials.

Department of Justice officials have
obtained copies Of circulars calling on
American workers to refrain from par
tieipating in the coming presidential
election and to join in the general
strike on that day. These circulars
are signed "the American Anarchist
Federated Commune 6oviets." This
multi-titled organization has put out
a number of leaflets during the past
year or so, all of them of more
or less incendiary character. Some
have been barely veiled in their ex-
tYeme radicalism. There is nothing to
indicate their source OF authors. Pre-
sumably they are the work of very
few radicals of the extremist type
who have sought to take advantage of
every form of labor disturbance in
this country to incite sedition. They

Beauty devotees are enthusiastic over

skin, gently and gradually. This is Ma
lures way Of renewing commissions.
When the natural process Is retarded be-

and hastens the skin shedding. The new

DISEASES AND RmGEDIEs.
BY Walt Maooa.

I've tried all kinds of remedies
which r supposed to cure disease,
and there r some which give relief
from anguish, fan-tods. pain and
grief. Some pills will drive away the
pain, and leave you feeling safe and
sane, but only for a while, be sure!
There is relief, but there's no cure.
The dark green pains will all come
back and make your weary sinews
crack, and smoking, slide along your
bones until you fill the night with
groans. Beware the pills. whate'er
their hue-the green. the purple or the
blue-which lull you for a little while,
and seem to urge a hopeful smile.
For when the aches come back again,
as they will come to pil-fed men,
they'll climb your. tendons and your
thews, and they'll have spikes upon
their shoes. There's but cur for
fleshly ills. and that cures not dis
guised. as pills. The Good Book tells
Of one old gent who meath his mall
aides was bent; he often to the doctors
slept, land with his fathers then he
slept" And that's the only cure I
know for all life's miseries and woe.
Just cast away the juice Of squills, the
porous plasters and the pills, the
trusses and the liver pads. and go and
slumber with you dada-Copyright

danced a jig on his hind feet to show
Mr.. g.. Mouse that he felt rather
