An editorial in the Daily News says:
"By a single gesture America has
changed the whole face Of information
al affairs. A despairing world has
been shown a path of salvation. This
path, which was missed at Versailles,
is revealed once again at Washington
as broad and straight"
The Daily Express says in an edi-
torial: valiant if staggering is the
proposal of the United States. It
brings an ideal to the verge of practi-
cal Politics.
The Daily Chronicles editorial says:
"The world is in debt to the United
States for its broad humanity and in
cisive vigor. 1t is our English way to
turn over critically all proposals af-
fecting the strength of our navy, but
it should be at once said that, apart
from certain reservations on account
Of the vastness of the sea area which
we patrol, the American proposals
strike us as being quite fair to our
selves"
The Morning Post in an editorial
says: Effects and armies are but in
struments of warfare. Neither France,
America, nor Great Britain desires to
spend one penny more than the sum
requisite to secure that justice and
those rights to which President Har-

CREDIT TO ITS BUILDERS
Frame Meeting House In Maryland
With Authentic Record From
1888, Is Still Standing.

The old Quaker meeting house at Eas-
ton, Nd, is probably the Oldest frame
building standing in the United States
just where it was built and as it
was built, without any change, addi-
tons or subtractions and with an au-
thentic record since 1858. An occa-
sional replacing of the shingles on the
roof and of the weather boarding are
all the repairs it has had. It's frame,
inside and woodwork, and some of the
weather-b boarding are the same as
when built about the same time that
William Penn, who visited the build
ing, was trading with the Indians and
laying out Philadelphia.
The only preservative used on the
wood has been old-fashioned white
wash on the outside. Seven Of the
original plank seats and the wood
work inside have had no paint what
ever. White oak, white pine cypress
and southern pine from the Maryland
forests were the woods used.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best


Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need IF it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation 7 have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,

AMERICAN EDITORIAL VIEWS.

posals strike straight and clean home

America has cut the ground from IN

neuver, hesitate and delay.
Buffalo Express-The United States
is saying, in effect, to its only rivals
for sea power; 1--WE will stop this com
petition for naval armament if you
will, we will sacrifice if you will, and
we will sacrifice more than we ask you
to give up" Will they? How can they
refuse?
Detroit Free Press-If well begun is
half done, then the world has the right
to hope for great things.
Providence Journal - The sacrifice
will be more apparent than real. The
relative naval strength of the powers
is to remain practically as it is. No
country will be more exposed to in
vasion or conquest or more. efficient in
offense by reason of the plan.
Boston HeraId-Mr. Hughes address
is simply business, straight, specific,
definite The peoples of the world are
waiting upon Washington with anxious
hearts
Syracuse Post Standard - Secretary
Hughes proposes plan for disarma-
ment so precise that it leaves little to
be said but "Amen" and little to be
done but sign on the dotted line.

FRENCH LIKE PLAN.

Paris, Nov 14.-Dispatches outlin-
ing the developments at the opening
of the armament conference in Wash

newspapers.
President Harding's high idealism,
as evidenced in his opening address, is
termed by the Petit Parisien "a
ray Of sunlight coming to rekindle the
heart Of our people, SO greatly touched
by the war"
The Journal, while approving the
American proposals set forth by Mr..
Hughes, says the problem confronting
the conference in this respect is the
attitude to be taken by Japan.

Hughes plan involves the abrogation
of the AngIo-Japanese alliance.

Why Seek to Shift Blame?

At former time ignorance and
superstition led men to attribute to evil
spirits their troubles and affections.
Then they turned to the stars as the
source of all their misfortunes: always
has the habit persisted Of shifting per-

some lessons of life is contained in the
fact, unjust or reasonable as one may
choose to regard it, that happiness sue

STORM DOOR.

An outside door on the north or west
side of the house, unless protected by
an outside storm door, always makes
the room on which it opens uncomfort-
able In severe weather. You can take
your screen door and cover it with
two thicknesses of burlap, tackled on
with copper tacks. Hang it the same
way as the screen door and it makes a
good substitute for storm door. In
spring remove the burlap and the door
is ready for summer duty.
