We have all wondered why some people are
always complaining about the weather.
On warm days they feel hot and uncomfort-
able. And in the slightest draft they begin
to sneeze and catch cold.
A common cause Of these troubles-and of
many others-is an inactive, 'lazy" skin.
Without proper exercise the tiny muscles
of the pores and glands in your skin become
weak and fabby
Then your whole skin grows 1azy." You
suffer too much from the heat, and catch
cold too easily. In addition, lazy" skin is
always exposed to rashes and eruptions. The
vitality of your whole body is lowered.
Doctors have found that proper bathing will
easily restore health and vigor to a 'lazy" skin.
Keep your skin GctiVe-gIoqOing
with health

LOWDEN FOR ECONOMY
Term as Governor a Record of
Saving and Efficiency.
fairs With Results Profitable
to the Tax Payers.

The high cost of government has
supplied the supporters of Frank o.
Lowden the platform on which they
are confident heswill be elected presi-
dent of the United States.
Governor Lowden was born on a
farm and worked his way through
school by teaching. He Is product
of the Middle West, having been born
in Minnesota raised in Iowa and then
coming to Chicago. He worked as
clerk in chicago law Office for $S a
week while preparing for his profess
sion. Later he entered politics. He
was thrice elected congressman from
the Thirteenth Illinois district before
voluntarily retiring.
He was elected governor of the
state in 1915 by a tremendous plu-
rality and his record as chief execu-
tive has put him in the list Of presi-
dental possibilities. Friends of the
governor explain that he had to be
dragged into the race for president.
Certainly he does not seem to worry
about the outcome of the campaign.
81 think one of the greatest needs
of the country today is stronger,
finer, happier Americanism, said Gov
ernor Lowden. 1--WE can compel aliens
to respect our form of government
or get out, and that we must do. At
the same time we are under the pro-
found necessity of earning that re-
spect from all right thinking men. We
are hearing strong preachments
against profiteering and extravaganza.
Yet it is hardly dawning on the pub
lie mind that we can be paying excess
lively for government, as well as for
sugar, meat or fuel.
"Illnois formerly had 125 separate
boards and commissions handling it's
affairs No one man, no score of men,
were responsible. A premium was
put on spending.
"Under my administrator these
bureaus have been consolidated into
nine departments, whose chiefs reside
at the state capital and are held in
dividually responsible. One effect of
this has been to reduce the tax rate
Of the state 33 per cent in two years.
Adoption of budget system has been
valuable adjunct in saving the tax
payers mossey. / think efficiency and
economy in government is one mighty
step in the direction Of improved
Americanism."

J. H. ADAMS
FOR TAX ASSESSOR

J. H Adams, of Comfort, is in
the arena for nomination as tax
assessor on the Republican ticket
to be put out Saturday, Mar. 6.
Mr.. Adams needs no introduction
to the people, as he proved an ac-
commodating official in every
way when holding the office some
four years ago. He gives his re-
spects to his republican friends
and hopes they will favor him
with the nomination. At this
late date it would be impossible
to make canvass of the entire
county. so he leaves it to ! is
friends to decide if they want
him on the job or not.

Labor has the money, the grit

The money lords have done
their best to destroy and degrade
all men and women who dared
to plead the cause of the down

even gone so far as to accuse
them of being an enemy to the

We left Yokahoma, Japan,
coming via Kelbe and the inland
sea of Japan. Then thru the
straits of Korea and China sea.
This required four days sreaming.
So we arrived in Shanghai, Chi
ma, Dec. 18.
] am going to say very little
of these Chinese swine, for that
is the only term describing their
filthy life.
Another reason for saying little
of their country is every time a
widowed mother and only
daughter" return from the orient
their first social function is to
give a dead fish dinner and de-
scribe those horrifying conditions
in China.
Give Japan the whole of China
and he will make a clean, useful
beast out of the whole of them.
Here goes for Shanghai, The
: Paris of the East. AS we
dropped the hook in the Yangtse,
the impression was made TINT
all China had gone boating and
begging. Thousands OF Sam
pans Zone man boats) go-downs,
and other boats infest the Yang
tse. We soon learned that many
Chinese spend their life in boats,
very seldom setting foot on earth.
We notice all kinds of names
on their boats, and all boats have
eyes painted on the bow. Here
is the Chinaman s reason: Boats
have no eyes; he no can see: no
can see; no can walk" Anoth-
er reason is that the devil is on
the river bed and if the boat has
ewes it can see him and no harm
can come. Everything is sup
erstitious,vp
Shanghai proper is about as
modern as Nashville. but less so
than Chattanooga. This we are
not interested in, for English and
Americans have built and occu-
py the modern section, In the
Chinese section we are warned of
what we are approaching by the
ill-smelling odor. The native city
is surrounded by six-mile wall
to keep out devils. These were
built 1O15 A. d. and have not
changed. The streets are mar
row and ill-smelling.
The Mandarin teahouse is in
teresting, due to the fact that
from it a pattern for willowware
or china has been taken. Peo-
pie are looking at it all over the
world on their willowware.
There are Pagodas. but they
are going to ruin because the
Chinese religion is in a>decaying
state.
Chinese are great fakirs in ev-
cry thing and in connection are
great bird growers. Cne of our
boys brought noted songster
aboard and noticing how dirty he
was, proceeded to give him good
soap bath. lingo! Behold the
change. All the red and yellow
came off and real English spar
row remained. The price of $25
has faded in the bath. You see
the Chinese used a real bird to
sing and sold the other.
Money exchange here is queer.
Their standard is the Mexican
dollar. Our money is worth SOC
Mexican, but on the ship it is
worth $1.14. Here is how

during the greater part OF the after
noon chatted with neighbOrs who
dropped in for Sunday calls. Late in
the day he was a guest at the installa-
ton Of a Marion chapter Of the B'Nai
Birth.
An evening caller at the Harding
home was Representative BascOm
Slemp, Republican national commit
teeman for Virginia, who said he
stopped over here only TO pay his re-
spects on his way West. Mr.. Slemp
issued a statement saying that the
Democratic convention had been "a
complete surrender OF the West 10 the
Republicans" and that capture OF
Ohio and The East should now be the
objective Of campaign lighting.
In a short talk at the B'Nai BIRTH
meeting Senator Harding praised the
part played by Jewish citizens OF
Marion in the war and said he hoped
the whole citizenship Of the country
would catch the spirit OF the B'Nal
Birth In campaigning against ignOr-
ance and intolerance. He declared
fraternity and helpfulness must be
abiding purposes OF American citizen
