Washington that G. T. Fairfield of this
city has been appointed an examiner OF
national farm loan associations, or banks,
bv the Federal Farm Loan board. This
is the first federal appointment to come

tration, if that of Walter Husband, com
missioner of immigration. is not to be
credited to this state.
The first assignment of Mr.. Fairfield
will be TO examine the farm associations
I'm the seventh district. composed of Mich
igan. Wisconsin. Minnesota and North
Dakota. but his regular field will be the
first district, which is made up of the
New England states New York and New
Jersey, acting also part Of the year in
the south. chiefly in Texas. There are Il
districts in the country and II examiners !;
1875 farm loan associations in the first

A. w. Douglas of st. Louis, chairman
of the statistics and standards committee
of the chamber of commerce of the
United States, takes a rap at the OBJ
structionists who, for 70 reasons, are
holding up prices" and who, he says. are
merely fooling themselves and blocking
the game" There are as many kinds of
these obstructionists as there are ways in
which they operate. All of them are GER
tainly doomed to failure in the end. be-
cause they cannot buck the economic law
and the trend of the times. any more than
they can defy gravity. In one case as
in the other, what goes up must come
down. At present. there is no longer
any doubt in the minds of any but the
most hopeless bourbons of business that
prices have got to yield all along the line
The sad thing about it is that those who
stubbornly hold out for high profits in
their own lines are not only 'fooling
themselves and laying themselves liable
to unpopularity and eventual loss. but
by applying the brakes of greed to the
wheels of progress they are imposing de-
lay and loss on everybody else.

Bless DIR. LeOnhardt, the Phy-
stefan Who Discovered a Common
Sense Remedy.

If you think that the surgeons knife is
the only method of escape from the misery

the new treatment known as DR.. Leon

The Doctors treatment is internal. BY
experimenting for years he discovered the
exact cause of piles and then went fur
tier and compounded a remedy that would
remove the cause.
DIR. Leonhardt wants every sufferer to
benefit by his discovery and so that there
will be no doubling or delay the Brattle-
boro Drug Co. and all druggists are at
thorized to sell HEAI-ROID with guarah-
tee that it will do as stated or money

On that honorable basis every sufferer
should secure a package of Dr. Leon

The Womans Club
OF
Mellwood District
Rseeeeeeeseeeeeeeeeeee

The coming meeting on October 4th
will be held in Masonic Hall, at two
O'Clock. After the regular routine of
committee reports, there will be at ad-
dress by Mr. Gibson, State Supervisor
of Music, on Community Singing.
While the Womans Club of Melwood
District, is not political organization
there is always touch with the out
side world through the committee re-
ports, and this serves to keep the
members informed of the different hap
penings in the County, the State, and
of important results in the world of le'
ters and civics. At this coming meet
ing, every woman who has begun to
interest herself in the great crisis that
is now confronting woman, in the pro-
posed legislation to brush aside all diff
ference in the existing laws, that at
this time make a distinction sbetween
men and women, is invited to meet
with the Club, and to hear the commit
tee reports which are always interest
ing and instruc tive. The great danger
to Southern women is before US at
this time because we are too apt to re-
main at home, which gives to those
active in these proposed additions to the
Constitution, the acquiescence or con-
sent by reason of no protest. No
women can afford to sit passive and al
low outsiders who are always ignor ant
OF local conditions, to bring into exis-
tence changes in the laws that will not
result in good.
