Grandfield, Okla.-One of the best

G. W. Tisdale, who owns and manages

Il have used Thedford's Black.

My father used Black Draught before I
was married, and gave IT to us .
For forty-four years of my married
life, it has had a place on our medi-
cine shelf. and is the only laxative. or
liver medicine. we use. We use IL
for torpid liver, sour stomach, head
ache, indigestion . don't think we

what 1t has done for us, and the money
II has saved 1t is just as good and re-

satisfied It's the best liver medicine
they have ever used"
Thedford's Black-Draught Is purely

So many thousands Of persons have

CORNERSTONE CONSTITUTION.

The Mayf1oweR Compact takes ita
place as the first, though not the least,
Of those Constitutions on which Amer
lea has set so peculiar regard. The
earlier Virginia patents recognized no
such political rights as the Pilgrim
cOlonists boldly claimed. When Ply
mouth ceased to be self-governing #
was to accept incorporation with Mas
sachusetts under that charter of 1851
which the Adamses. Hancock and
Warren, defended so tenaciously
against George III. A mere reading
Of the first Massachusetts charter or
the Connecticut charter indicates the
connection between them and our
present state and federal Constitu-
tons, says New York Evening Post.
There Is no such internal evidence In
the case of the Compact, but the con-
nection exists. Its consequences may
even be said to extend to the Consti-
tutions of certain countries In other
continents and hemispheres. While
much of Europe has continued with
out any fundamental law superior to
mere statutory law. we have Inn,
pressed our praStice upon Latin Amer.
lea, China, and the younger European
republics.

This is father and son week We
suppose it is good thing, but we
Have only a platonic interest in it.
There has never been father and

iUfd the day we began teaching our
ffUhhfy boy to walk there sprang into
being between us a partnership that
f6hIy the grim reaper can dissolve.
And we have not few friends who
are also life partners with their boys.
IF a man in dealing with his son will
always bear in mind what he liked

be likely to need father and son
week in order to become acquainted
with his boy.

In great many homes the dining
room Is looked upon purely as a room
where the family eats its meals.
Three times day its members gather
together and partake Of their allotted
rations. II would be a carping fellow
who would deny that such is the chief
purpose Of the dining room, but there
are still a few charming people left
who look upon meals as a time for
mental as well as physical nourish-
ment. 1t is at the dining table that
the art Of conversation is learned-or
killed. There the youngster ventures
timidly on his first essay in the realm
Of talk, says London Express. There
the schoolgirl learns to express her
self In other ways than giggles and
demure monosyllables. There the
father, stuffed with wisdom, can feed
the mental hunger OF his brood. A
lot of people who have found pleasant
companionship and social ease by rea-
SON of their conversational gifts would
find, If they looked back, that the
teething process took place in the din
ing room at home.

You are conversing thru your hat. If

for the time that the Rodman Lumber

the testimony, and who certainly is
not DESTROYS Of having the road dis
mantled, was evidently not impressed
by the glittering promises that sprang
up like mushrooms as soon as the
sheriff shut down the road. Now, it's
the Stars opinion, and its wish, that

Rentz had to give it up has been run

Mr.. A. T. Thomas says he is sorry
to note that the Star has started its
antagonism against him" as it did in
1917. The Star hasn't started any
afitagonism against Mr.. Thomas. In
1917 it opposed his candidacy for
alderman at large because it believed
his opponent would fill the office bet
ter. When the people disagreed with
the Star and elected Mr.. Thomas, the
Star gave him square deal. It has
praised his official conduct every time
it could honestly do so. It is oppos-
ing him in his candidacy for mayor
because it believes DIR. Peek is much
the better candidate. Why shouldn't
it express its opinion?

/ About month ago, we made some
remarks. about the prospects of the
@, v railroad, and it has taken all
| that time for the PaIatka News to
frame an answer to them. Said an
swer. appeared in Saturdays News,
and weak answer it is. AS we don't
believe our friend Query would will
fully distort anything another editor
writes, we will have to tell him he
has woefully misunderstood the Star,
which has never advocated the dis
mantling of the o. ", or expressed a
wish that service on it be discon-
tinued. We have maintained that the
O. V.ashould pay its taxes and pay its
debts, and we would like to see the
News find any reason in law or hon.
esty why it shouldn't. We have also
expressed our disgust with the Pa
latka people who have been getting
the bulk of the roads business, while
Ocala has been getting little or moth
ing, but who nevertheless expect
Ocala to pay at least half the expense
of keeping the road in operation. If
the people of Palatka would come
across with half enough money to
buy the road. they might expect Ocala
to make some move to meet them,
but they haven't shown the shine of
thin dime. We earnestly desire to
see the o. v. resume service, but we
do not think that either the state or
federal government should be requir-
ed to support it. Now let the News
in justice reprint the foregoing so
TIE people of Palatka can under
stand the Stars real position.
