Of American factories threw millions Of men out
OF employment
Only The outbreak OF the war restored American
prosperity.
Another pledge OF the party the manieance OF
free tolls for American coasvise traffic through the
Panama Canal but one Of the first acts OF The Democratic
administration The repeal OF the law which estab-
srcd this special privilege for the encouragement Of an
American merchant marine.
The Democratic party also assured It's protection to
every American Citizen in the enjoyment OF his rights
as home or abroad but there has not been day since
that party came into power when any American could
enjoy his rights under treaties with our nearest
Sister Republic.
The Democratic party pledged itself 70 reduction Of
what denounced the extravaganza Of the previous
Republican administration
Instead OF reducing expenditures the government ap~
preparations greatly increased with the result That
war taxes became necessary long before the United States
entered the before preparation for war was be-
gun.
so pronounced was this increase OF expenditures that
the President found necessary TO attempt an excuse
by asserting that the people Of the country care not how
much money spent provided they get What they want
in return.
Preservation OF the merit system in public appoint
ments and efficiency In the public service were other
pledges which were remembered only TO be broken.
Merit never had smaller place in the public service
and enangng red tape before greatly hindered
the transaction of public business.
"Ptless publicity" another pledge given TO the
American people during the campaign OF 1912 but there
has never been Federal administration so secretive as
that which is now in control.
The single term pledge and numerous Others that
might be mentioned serve as further instances OF the
kind OF "ndey" with which the Democratic party has
kept It's pledges.
In view OF all this record which is stll fresh in The
minds Of the American people II will be vain for the
democratic campaign managers 10 hope that they car
win the confidence Of the American people now by pledg
ing funlment OF promises with the same fidelity they
have observed In the past

A RECORD OF BROKEN PLEDGES

"A we understand the spokesmen Of lhe Democratic
a n party the assurance they give 10 the American
people is that II they continued in power in national
Affairs their pledges win be culned in the future with
the fidelity that has characterized the fulnument
pf their pledges in the past
e. While that sounds fairly well so far as words are
concerned analysis OF the record OF the past will show
that it is not much OF pledge 70 the future so far
as Delawareans concerned.

The experiences OF thousands
OF men have shown that it is
Just as hard to save money out
Of a large income as it is out of
a small one. Even though the
savings amount to only few
pennies a day or even a few
pennies a week, the start has
been made in the right direction
and the more difficult it is to
effect these savings the greater
will be the value in added will

Many and many a man who
has begun to save money in the
midst of great hardships has
been surprised to find how
quickly good fortune began to
smile upon him. We cannot

able value.
The foundation Of many a
successful business career and
of many a we'll ordered, thrifty
home has been laid in these
practices of thrift during the
summer school vacation.
No matter what your cir
cumstances may be, save
money. The amount saved
does not matter nearly as much
as the fact that you save some
thing, for if you cannot lay by
a small portion of your earn
ings when your income is small
you will not be able to do so if
it is increased.
Thrift is a matter of mental
force and stamina, rather than
a function of mere monetary
accumulation.

A Practical Prescription
For Sour, Acid Stomach

Nine tenths Of all cases Of stomach
trouble nowadays are caused by too
much acid. In the beginning the stom-
ach itself is not diseased but If this acid
condition Is allowed to continue, the
acid is very likely 10 eat into the st0m-
ach walls and produce gastritis with
stomach ulcers This may render a radi-
cal surgical operation necessary even to
proiong life. Therefore, an "acid stOm-
ach' is really a dangerous condition and
should be treated seriously. The excess
be neutralized by Bisurated Magnesia
taken In teaspoonful doses in n glass Of
water after each meal. Larger guam
titles may be used II necessary as it Is
