voters instrument whereby the party may be

solutions.

Today's Talk
BY George Matthew Adams
THE PAWN

A man must ever hold himself in
readiness to be played. He must take
with great grace the fact that he must
at times become a mere pawn for an
idea. Yet may he rank among the
immortal worth-wholes of the world
for in Life, as in the game of chess,
he pawn often holds the key to the
winning play.
Only as you are able to link your
! own noble aims and efforts with the
! larger ones of Time, are you able to
feel working within you the conscious
pursuit OF a great purpose" as Aristo-
tie has so finely put it-meaning,
believe, that the machinery of high
achievement which Nature has given
to Man begins it's motion the minute
that he sights his ideal.
With such feeling breeding within
cne's mind and heart, who can hesitate
before great chance? Who would
not be willing to lay down his very
! life and ask that it be traded in for
an ideal?
Napoleon walked thru pest-houses
without fear. Roosevelt evaded his
guards, while President, for it was dis
tasteful to him to think that, if his
body was to be sacrificed, it would not
well serve its end
Greatness stalks out in the open!
But this big business of pawn-serv-
ing isn't confined to the fullness of
fame. The men or women behind their
desks and machines, doing the days
work well, are as truly spending their
lives to a fine purpose-pawns for the
chronicler of a passing time to note
with pride.
So let us talk to our tired bodies
and to our oftdiscouraged hearts, and
tell them to remember that what they
give out is the only thing Of perman
ence about them.
Be glad to give, to serve, to sweat, to
fight, to sacrifice. to stand smilingly
ready-to be pawned.

EVERY WORD WAS
FROM BOTTOM OF
HIS HEART
Richmond citizen very earnest
in his praise Of the great
herbal tonic, Dreco, which
has done so much for him.
Pain in back, rheumatism,
nerves shot to pieces, could
not sleep, limbs stiff and
muscles sore. Now well as
ever.

Zone day read about what a man
said about Dreco taking a load off his |
back which felt like a ton of brick
and l laughed at it but l now know
that every word he said came from
the bottom of his heart" declared Mr..
H. E. Fleck. who is a car inspector

suffering l was afraid l would be per-
I'manently deformed, as the rheuma-
. tism had such hold on me. My back
and limbs were sore and stiff; muscles
were drawn and the joints seemed to
be dry; my nerves were shot to
pieces so that 1 could not sleep; had
shooting pains in my back and side.
Really I was in bad shape but Dreco
has certainly proven a blessing to me
as l know more relief from pain now
than in years; l can bend about and
stoop over without the slightest pain;
sleep sound at night; getting stronger
day by day. l strongly advise suffer-

Editor Palladium:
Following are some "reminiscences
of Mrs. J. E. Cowles:
The postman threw me in letter
which l instantly recognized was from
my girlhood friend, who now occupies
the exalted position of president of
the Woman's Federated Clubs. Some
printed matter was enclosed, eXortlng
women to "make-over," not to buy
Bingham or calico dresses but to re-
construct wearables out of dresses on
hand and to wear them to the Des
Moines biennial convention this month.
| hope they will do SO, and this ad-
vice was timely to me, who was
battling to make a presentable gar
ment out of an old one. And, too, the
letter set me to thinking of Mrs.
Cowles when a girl. My father was
a school-mate Of her fathers at old
New Garden Boarding School, North
Carolina. So, many years later, Josiah
White went to visit Clarkson Hill in
Chicago. He could not show his friend
that wonderful city. so delegated the
task to his little daughter, 10 years
old. lone was in her element as she
conducted my father about. She knew
just how and where to go, displaying
then the rare ability which now makes
her the honored head Of the Federated
Clubs. Ever after she was held up to
us in our home as the capable child
who knew Chicago. AS were our par
ents so were their children school
mates. We two girls roamed old Earl
hams halls together. l remember
what a model of neatness and order
she was-even her handkerchiefs were
skillfully repaired. Well can she now
advise the club women about making
old garments good. Once she wrote
an essay on THE Discipline of Wait
ing" That comes appropriately toe
now, for the nation and the either
alike need that sort of disciplne-no
a military practice-but the priceless:
one of patience, for "all things come
to him who waits''-virtue indeed il

Good Evening
WE SHOULD WORRY
BY Roy X. Moulton

Wherever that rascal breathes his last,
Who's had profiteering past,
And we should weep above his bier,
We'd only shed profit-tear
C. M. F.
We often wonder how reformers get
their rather peculiar angle on life. We
remember away back in the old town
TIE people who were always consign-
ing us to hell for playing casino and
edro and dancing the Virginia reel
were a queer lot of ducks. Not people
with whom you would wish to spend
eternity.
Do they go through life seeing moth
ing but the sordid-the reprehensible?
If so, do they know what is best for us?
Is their judgment good?
1t has been our experience during
the past forty years that the average
man is a pretty decent sort of a skate.
If given his own head, he is more than
apt to do the Just and charitable thing.
He has little old stabilizer known as
a conscience which does not have to be
reinforced by q constitutional amend
ment He prefers to discover his own
failings, if he is any good at all-in
other words. to amend his own person
al constitution.
If we have many more reform waves,
the world at large will begin to doubt
all of us, while in reality only an in
finitesimal minority is to blame
even Mars and Venus and the rest Of
our planetary neighbors may gain
wrong impression.
Outside Of the money consideration,
just what is it that makes a reformer
get that way? We have one or two
reformers to actually work without
monetary remuneration-who did not
make it business and who had appar-
emily been bitten by the holier-than-
thou microbe.
In our weak and Intellectual way we
form must come from within and not
from without-that it cannot be
propagated by force, by coercion, by
denial of rights or by the breeding of
personal or class antagonism. We
have always felt some pride in the
ability of the other fellow human being
to reform within mans own soul. 1t
cannot be shot in with a bean blower,
an air-gun or forty-two centimeter
field piece.
A man with the slightest amount Of
selp-respeCt may be led, but he can
never be driven. If he keeps his face
clean, loves his own wife, takes care
of his children, pays his debts, votes
on election day. sleeps with the win
dows open and taken little sulphur
and molasses every spring, he will
never need any reforming and what is
more important-ne probably will not
feel the urge to go about reforming
other people

The Political Conventions

Not since 1912 has there been such rampant
interest and keen anticipation of the outcome of
a convention as marks the national mind these
days. And the suspense will be sustained until
the Democrats announce their platform and
nominees at San Francisco.
Not only the struggle for the nomination, but
the highly important issues that will be written
into the platforms, give distinctive cast to the
conventions this year.
The voter who is not bound by party affilia-
ton, but votes for the man and platform that
best suits his belief is following closely the de-
lvelopn1ents of the Chicago convention.

BUYING DEVELOPED ]. ON COTTON DECLINE

The Close, Was at a Net De- cline of Ten to FOrty-five Points Under Wednes-

By Associated Press

New York, July 2s.-The trend of cot ton prices was lower most of the day, but good buying developed at the de- cline, especially in october, and the market had sharp recovery in the late afternoon. At the lowest levels of the day it was 45 to IS points under the previous night but at the close was very steady at net decline of 10 to 4o points.
 Bearish news predominated at the outset and, in fact, a good part of the session the principal factors being the report of Memphis paper giving con dition at 76.6, compared with 69.S last month, favorable weather reports from all parts of the belt, and Wall street selling, inspired by early weakness ir depreciation of general outside condi- tions.
 The selling forced October down tc 32c December to 30.6lc, and January to 29.97c.
