In Fai1mont the Music department of the Womans

musical lines and last year the other clubs wheeled

'VE seen the world a little bit.
Il I've touched at ports score,
And after what know of 1t
want to know some more;
And though, as far as can learn,
Ny homeland is the best
Thetfacts cannot quite discern
Until I've seen the rest.
Thsy say the ladies here at home
Are finest the fine,

Lest in this heart of mine
Asdoubt. might rise somehow to break
The native maldens' thral
And to avoid that sad mistake,
want to see them ALL
Eso though I'm always on the move
And never still, in sooth,
ITS Just my eagerness to prove
The scientific truth;
And is that all the reason why
roam, restless elf?

That I can't help myself.

After seeing the wonderful results
my husband obtained from Tanlac
began taking the medicine myself, and
now we both agree that 1t is the
grandest medicine on earth" said Mrs
Nancy Sharp, prominent and highly
esteemed resident of Los Angeles,
Calf, living at 921 Camulus street.
whose husband is proprietor of the
Merchants Express Co.
During the twelve years that /
suffered with Indigestion and stomach
trouble | tried nearly every medicine
/ heard about, but nothing helped me
and l lost faith in everything. So,
my wonderful restoration to health
has been the greatest surprise of my
life.
Il began to feel an improvement on
finishing my second bottle of Tanlac,
and now after taking six bottles l am
like new woman. l have a splendid
appetite, eat three hearty meals day,
enjoy them thoroughly and am never
troubled in the least with indigestion
or any other disagreeable' after ef-
fects.
Before taking Tanlac most every
thing l ate caused my stomach to
rebel and / would suffer for hours
afterwards. l was so dreadfully
nervous that many nights l never
closed my eyes in sleep, but now
am not the least nervous, and l sleep
like child. My strength has been
wonderfully increased, and 1 have
much more energy.
Il just wish it was so everybody
troubled like l was knew about this
wonderful medicine"

Legal Aid Societies to Safeguard Poor
Stressed as Vital Need.

hington.-Interest in the estab-
q lishment of legal aid societies for the
poor, as one important step in Ameri-
canization work, was advocated recent
ly by Charles Evans Hughes, now sec
retary of state, in an address before
the American Bar Association. Com
ing from such distinguished source,
the views expressed are worthy of
more than passing attention on the
part of those who would aid in seeing
that Justice in the courts is given to
both rich and poor alike, if the large
and increasing foreign population of
the United States is to be made to be-
lieve in the efficacy of law and or
der.
The question has been asked, Must
aliens distrust American justice be-
cause they don't understand it's pro-
cesses?" 1t has been further suggest
ed that obligation is costly and cum
bersome and the poor, wether alien
or native, have at present to little ex-
perience with the boasted evenhanded-
ness of justice. Agencies which will
protect them in their rights, for the
sake of having the right prevail, and
charge them nothing for the service,
offer new and startling illumination
Z of the workings of American Democ-
racy."
1t Is the belief of Mr.. Hughes that
while the legal aid society is the poor
mans lawye-. and gives him the essen
tial assistance he cannot obtain else
where, such a society should be a re-
suit of the patriotic labor of private
organizations. It has been well said
editorially that mo greater civic serv-
ice is open to lawyers, and high-mind-
ed citizens than to secure the needy
and ignorant full protection under tho
law"
AS emphasizing the opportunities
for service of this kind, for such patri-
otic service as Mr.. Hughes suggests,
it is of record that in Pittsburgh and
Rochester 41.S per cent of the people
are immigrants who spoke other than
English tongues before coming to
America. On the other hand, New
. York City's figures show that 5S-2 per
cent OF 1tS population are best ac-
quainted with foreign tongues and
English is the mother tongue of but
41.8 per cent. The percentage of for
, eigners in Chicago is greater even
than in New York, according to the
census, while in Milwaukee but 2S1
4, per cent are placed in the column of
those speaking the English tongue
originally and 71.9 per cent other
' tongues.

GOT THE JOBS MIXED UP
But at That, Old Gentleman Had
Equipped Coffin for the Crossing
Of the River.

Joseph @. Lincoln told this story
at the luncheon of the Brooklyn col
ony of the Society of New England
Women recently to illustrate the eff
cacy in the old days of New England
rum:
"An old Cape Cod settler made both
boats and collins. One day he was
called upon to make coffin to be
finished in two days. The old fellow
demurred because he was busy max
ing boat. But the need for the coffin
was imperative, SO It occurred to the
insistent customers that New Eng
land rum might help. So bottle was
Forthcoming. The old fellow took a
swfg and agreed that he reckoned
he would have to accommodate the
gentlemen. In two days they returned
to find the old man asleep In the cor
ner, the bottle empty and the coffin
ready, resting on two chairs. But the
old captain had put centerboard in
the coffin"
