KEY MAN PLAYED

Lauder Tried For Ten Years To Get
Rid of Trouble-Tanlae.
Proves Merit.

II could tell you in few words
what ! think of Tanlac, but can new
er get through praising it for what it
has done for me-" said ]. o. Lauder,
1427 Dean avenue, Des Moines, Ioaw,
q few days ago.
Mr.. Lauder has been telegraph op-
orator for more than twenty. years,
and is now night operator for the C.
R. I. & p. railroad, Rock Island sta
tion, Des Moines.
Il have been taking medicines for
ten years." added Mr.. Lauder, "try-
ing to get rid of a case of stomach
trouble. Years ago I realized l was
playing z losing game, for l kept
getting worse. but did not know what
to do to help myself. Until Tanlac
fixed my stomach up here recently 1
hadn't enjoyed meal in years. / had
become so nervous and irritable that
! had to guard myself to keep the or
dinary things of life from getting me
all upset and unstrung. l managed to
keep at work most of the time, but
was very much worried, as felt that
! was right on the verge of nervous
breakdown. My sleep did not rest me
and work hod become burden to me.
"A few months ago my wife and 1
went on visit down in Missouri, and
found her sister so improved that we
hardly knew her on first sight. She
told US Tanlac did it, so on our return
l got bottle and, after taking only
two doses, ] began to feel better. l
am now feeling like man made new.
My appetite is so ravenous that meal
time comes too slow, and / can eat
just anything and everything and not
have any trouble from it. My nerves
were never better; l sleep like baby
and get up thoroughly rested and
ready for work. feel more grateful
than I can find words to express for
what Tanlac has done for me, and 1
am glad Of the opportunity to make a
statement for what it may be worth
to others who are trying to find re-

HOLD ON TO YOUR LIBERTY
BONDS.

| While prices for Government war
bonds have recently shown a declin-
ing tendency, holders of these securi-
ties should not sacrifice them, as they
will be compelled to do if they dis
pose Of them at present.
The prime reason for the decline in
these issues, is that the Government
has been compelled to issue Treasury
Certificates, bearing. $50 and 5A%o
| interest, whereas the highest interest
/ the Liberty bonds carry is 4A9e
This has brought about the selling of
War obligations, which can be pur-
chased, however. to yield up to Sc if
held to maturity.
In Wall Street, the essential fac
tors contributing to fixing the selling
price of bonds, in addition to general
market conditions, are safety, mar
reliability, yield, and possibilities of
increase in value. War bonds possess
all of these attributes.
Hold on to them, therefore. Ihey
are depressed now because of adverse
market conditions, of which the scar
city and high rates for call funds, is
the principal. The time is coming
and it may come sooner than is gen
orally expected-when the holders OF
Liberty bonds can consider themselves
fortunate.
In the meantime, the fact that saw
ings banks and insurance companies
are taking advantage of the present
market for Liberty bonds to make
purchases, should carry with it a mes
sage of cheer and comfort to present
holders.

Samuel Gompers took his whack at
politics last week, devoting long ar
ticle to denunciation Of congress and
the executive departments for "incom-
petence on the cost of living ISSUE"
and calling for an overturn In congress
and the defeat of labor's enemies and
election of its friends. He demands
Immediate effective action to prevent
continued increases In the cost Of liv-
wages, both In private employment
and In government service7 must be
adjusted upward. There must be no
more such legislation as the Esch-
Cummins railroad law and the Kansas
court Of Industry law, asserts Mr..
Gompers, and existing laws like those
must be repealed. His statements
concerning wages and legislation
sound inconsistent, but no one will
quarrel with his severe remarks about
lprohteering. unless 1t be the profiteers
themselves. The labor chief had some
hard things to say about Attorney
General Palmer's efforts to curb that
evil.
The profiteers were dealt several
blows during the week. The federal
circuit court of appeals in New York
upheld the Lever act as constitutional,
in the case Of Weed & Co., Buffalo
clothiers, affirming the decision of
Judge Hazel, who refused to enjoIn a
district attorney from proceeding
against the company on profiteering

In New York, indicted the American

Mr.. Edwards, he said, hasn't had
drink in 30 years, and is standing
for the principles of personal liberty
and state sovereignty. So far as the
committee could discover, there is no
McAdoo fund, and only about $2S,000
has been raised for the Cox cam
paign.
Sober thinking men will scarcely
find anything scandalous in the facts
ELECTED by the senate committee, but
they reveal the unfortunately large ex-
pehditures that are considered neces-
sary in our pre-convention campaigns
under the primary system. They also
show that Michigan is an expensive
state, the fight for presidential pref
erence vote there costing almost as
much as the last senatorial campaign.
The contest in 'Ohio was almost as
costly. In these and some other
states large sums were expended by
local organizations that do not ap-
pear in the figures submitted by the
national managers.
The Johnson people in the Chicago
headquarters were the first to put
forth definite claim as to the num-
Der of votes with which their candi-
date would enter the convention. Their

if every other follower of Christ
worked at it and prayed about it just
as / do?
2. How long would it take to
make my whole nation really Chris
tian if all Christians gave their pray
ers and efforts and money toward it
just as l am doing?
3. How long would it take to
The Starkville news., 1920-03-19

make disciples of all the nations if
all other Christians were to give this
great program of Christ the place in
their lives that it has in mine?
4. Have l any moral right to ex-
pect or demand of other Christians,
or even of preachers and missionaf-
les, any service or sacrifice for Christ
that | am unwilling to give myself?
The work of winning the world to
Christ is my work as really and as
fully as it is the work of any one
else. Let me not avoid or shirk it.
