No Wonder Some Folks Have Hard
Time Getting Ahead
TO SUCCEED
PeptO- Mangan Restores VigOr = A
Really Wonderful TOnic-Purifies
And Tones Up the Blood.

II takes vitality to succeed because
success requires hard work.
Some days you bet alopg all right.
Other times you have to strain and
you overexert yourself. When that
happens. your system is overtaxed. 1t
shows first in the blood. The over
extion causes an increase in waste
matter. The blood struggles to take
care of it all. Gradually the poisons
in the waste increase too fast for the
blood. Then the blood becomes clog
ged.
First thing you know you feel all
tired out Seep does you little good.
You can't eat well. You wonder what
the trouble is.
Then is the time to get some Pepto-
Mangan, the blood building tonic.
Take it for awhile till your blood is
cleared up. You'll soon have plenty of
rich, red blood. Notice the difference
In your work. Your old-time energy
returns. You win out because you are
stronger.
Pepto-Mangan is sold in both liquid
and tablet form. The tablets have the
same medicinal value as the liquid.
Take either kind you prefer. But be
sure you get the genuine Pepto-Man-
gan-"Gude's" The full name, Guides
Pepto-Mangan," should be on the
age.-Advertisement

LAID TO GIVE FARM
PROBLEMS HIS ATTENTION
First Senator Elected As Candidate of
NON.Partisan League To Urge
Better System Of Marketing.

Fargo, N. D., Nov. %. = DR.. E. F..
Ladd, first United States Senator
elected as candidate of the Nom
Partisan League, announced here thta
his first aim in Congress will be to
promote better system for market
ing the grain and other food products
Of the farm.
at Is a serious problem that faces
Congress" DR.. Ladd said. Something
must be done and within the next few
years If we are to sa We the farming
industry from generalization. Even
now the most of the men left on the
far mare middle age dand elderly
the younger men are looking for
greater opportunities.
II believe that dealing in futures on
shorts selling grain in which the
seller never had an equity, which
never existed and which will never be
delivered-is species Of gambling
which does not stabilize prices or
benefit the producer of consumer. 1t
is matter which every legislator
ought to study until he has a just
comprehension of 1t and the nconsid-
er whether it is not worthy of his at
tention.
1.-THE co-operatice movement must
go hand in hand with helpful legisla-
ton in improving the situation. Farm
ers must come to own their buying
and selling organizations.
"If legislation lis passed making
funds from federal reserve banks and
federal land banks available to these
organizations, farmers will be able to
hold their grains until they are need
ed instead of dumping them on the
market at the end Of the harvest.
DR.. Ladd added that effort should
be made to bring better school sys-
tenn into rural districts and give the
farm children the same chances for
education as hold in towns and cities.

Just Folks
By EDGAR A. GUEST


It's all worth while, he used to say
When difficulties lined his way.
I've never known q trouble yet
l wasn't glad that l had met
The minute | had seen 1t through.
Because it proved what / could do.
I've feared it, looking straight ahead,
I've had my share of doubt and
dread
And yet, when it was over, 1
Looked backwards with a laughing
eye
And to myself I'd always Il V
You'll boast about that task some day.
I've never known a man so great
That didn't hunger to relate .
The hardships and the cares he'd
known
Before success was his to own.
The hunger that had made him whine
Had also helped to make him fine.
The failures that had tried his soul
And seemed a barrier to his goal
Had changed their bitterness for
sweet
And now are memories TO repeat.
Mans greatest joy beneath the sun
Is TO recall what he has done.
Today | laugh at yesterday
And all the cares that came my way
The past is only grim TO those
Who left their courage with its woes.
Who plods along new joys TO win
Looks back at trouble with n grin.
And boastfully at times repeats
The misery of his defeats.
He tells his hardships with a smile
And holds that they were all worth
while.
For all the secret joys that last
Spring from the hardships of the past.
SO into every round of care
And every battle with despair
| plunge, remembering the fun
That il will mean when i am done.
What hurts me now will some day be
y very pleasant memory.
And laughingly ! may recall
IN future years the present fall. &.
What seems today a fearful test
May. he tomorrow's source OF jest,
And all that calls for courage stouS.
Some day I'll proudly o about.

The UnSalaried
DrummerS
BY George Matthew Adams

IF YOU are a Merchant or Manufac-
l. turer, the most valuable assets you
have are the u~nrecorded ones in the
form of Satisfied Customers-the Men
and Women and Children that come
into your store or other stores unan-
nOunced, and leave as unfussedly, to
carry on and on the Message of the
value behind the Goods you sell.
It is the Unsalaried Drummer who
makes it possible for you to win in
Business.
Into every Town, City-Country, do
The Unsalaried Drummers go-every-
where your Goods go, they go. And
what your Merchandise is, they are
as Drummers. The people who read
your Books, ride in your Cars, the
Stenographers who u your Typewrit-
ers, those who wear the Clothes you
make and the Food you prepare
each is an Unsalaried Drummer FOR
you. Ever think of it this way?
Each time you lower the highest
Standard of what you make or sell,
you take away that much, maybe Il
million times, from the efficiency of
your Unsalaried Drummers.
Every Man and Woman with suffi-
cient Brains to Think, is a possible
Drummer for you to sell-and each
is your Drummer ut NO COST to you.
SO hat your greatest concern remains
not for those merely under the range
of your Eye, but those you never see

Failure-unannOunced.
Oh, Business Man! In your mad
fret and scramble for the Dollar. do
not forget the endless number of I'm
salaried Drummers that are able TO

Last Dreams
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF LACK OF
CLOTHING?

WHAT is called n of the stand
w ard dreams. one which is most
annoying and one which everybody al
most. has experienced Mt least once in
his life, some people many times, is
the dream Of finding oneself in a
tl.rOnged street or in n room filled
with people and suddenly realizing
that one is only partially clothed or
not clothed at all. In these dreams
the people with whom we find Ourself
do not appear to take any notice OF
our unconventional condition, but the
dreamer is much disturbed and en-
deayors TO escape. This dream has
received particular attention from
those scientists who for more than
half Il century have been investigating
the phenomena of dreams re-
garded as purely mental Tor more ac-
curately psychic), or a. physical mani
f~estations. The dream in question Is
said to be the basis of Hans Chris
tian Andersen's story, "The Emper-
Or's New Clothes and has been done
into poetry by the German author,
Fulda. in THE Talisman." 1t is
called by the scientists Il standard"
or typical dream because it is one
which is experienced by all persons
I'm IN identical or almost identical
manner; whereas most of our dreams
are peculiar TO ourselves.
The empires, hose who interpret
dreams in the old. superstitious, tradi-
tional mystic and unscientific manner
declare the dream under considera-
ton to be a bad omen, though they do
not all agree just how bad. They
say 1t signifies hat people are con-
spring against you; that you are soon
to- receive III Insult; you will be dis
appointed in your friends and rela-
tives and il is q warning to you to
mend your ways.
Those scientists who strive to ac-
count for dreams by referring them TO
a physical source say that this dream
is simply the result of sensations
caused by the bedclothes slipping off.
But that does not hold for we fire.
