FIFTY YEARS AGO

it was the custom of our grandparents
when anything was the matter with
their stomach, liver or kidneys, to take
a remedy composed of the right kind
of roots and herbs, and by so doing
lived to a ripe old age. 1t is also true
that the Shakers, who have always de,
pended upon the life-giving juices of
leaves, roots and herbs, are long-lived
people. The roots and herbs of which
SEVEN BARKS is principally com
posed of were gathered by the Shakers
for many, many years, then scientif'
cally blended, and SEVEN BARKS has
become famous as one of the most re-
liable remedies for Indigestion, Consti-
patton, Liver, Kidney and Stomach dis
orders.
Dull pains in the back, often under
the shoulder blades, poor digestion,
h%eartburns or hutterings, sour risings,
yellow skin mean liver troubles, and
you should take SEVEN BARKS; it
will relieve you, as it will make the liy-
er active, tone up the digestive organs
and cause the bowels to act normally.
SEVEN BARKS is not a cure-all,
but a very reliable remedy that will at
act on the liver, stomach and
bowels, sets them to right, tones and
strengthens the general health.
If you want to get the greatest eff
out of your body, enjoy and pro-
long your life, take SEVEN BARKS.
At druggists, 60 cents a bottle. Don't
put IT off; get it t~o-day.-Adv.

NATIONAL CONSERVATION DAY
Was Recommended By National Con
ference on Parks.

Des Moines, Ia, Jan. ll.-Establish-
ment of a national ~conseyvation day
was placed before the national confer
ence on parks here to-day, Advocates
of the proposal declared such a holiday
would receive general endorsement be-
cause it was needed to help stop a
waste of resources that cannot be re-
placed and would stimulate love Of
country.
Mrs. Charles L. Hutchinson Of Chica.
go, on behalf OF the Garden Club Of
America, presented a resolution urging
the establishment of national conserva-
ton day. DR.. Henry G. Cowles of the
University OF Chicago, president of the
Wild Flower Preservation Society of
America, spoke in support of it, The
first Saturday in May was suggested.
"The Garden Club of America already
has endorsed this idea, which first was
suggested by Mrs. Francis c. Farwell
OF Chicago" Mrs. Hutchinson said. I'VE
have numerous holidays properly devot
ed TO reverence Of historic events in our
life as a nation, but none devoted TO
teaching what America is to-day.
National conservation day should be
celebrated by schools and civic organi.
cations with outdoor exercises which
would impress on our people the need
for taking care of the abundant re-
sources with which we are blessed, but
which are being depleted by unwise
use
The resolution, which was referred to
4 committee for report to the final SEES
sion Of the conference, reads as fol.
lows:
Whereas, IL unparalleled natural
resources are in danger of being de.
robbing future generations OF
commercial assets and also of
he outdoor beauty spots which have
contributed to our health and strength
a. a nation, and
Whereas, conservation of waterways
ind forests and plant and animal life is
ied industrial development, but on the
'ontrary essential TO it, and
Whereas. a national holiday dedi.
.ated TO the purposes of conservation
would emphasize the need for conserv-
ng these and not abusing
hem. and would promote love of coun-
ny, therefore be it
Resolved that Congress hereby is re.
to set aside the first Saturday
n May as a national conservation day
nd other governmental agencies are
TO further this idea by assisting :
n its celebration"

TO say that men cannot be made
good by law is misleading declared
Amos p Wilder, in speaking Of the
basic conditions looking to stronger
American life, at meeting of The
Connecticut Bar Association. Law
cannot reachthe motives that animate
the citizen, but it can affect his con
duct, aud habitual conduct is related
to character We do not say that men
cannot be made healthy by sani-
tary laws, for we know that they
are. We do not say that nation can
not be educated by law--the results
of our compulsory system make such
an allegation absurd. When we took
the Philippines the first thing we did
was to make the natives literate by
law. Today there are SOC, 600 of them
in American schools; after only TWEEN
ty years t"e English tongue is spoken
freely in every community.

or at special sessions. In each
OF these instances the predecessor
