II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that 30 many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF 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 il
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, . a
preparation I 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 80 large q
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.

Married Women in the
Government Service
By BILL PRICE.

1t is not possible to print large number OF commune
cations received by the editor the subject of married
women in the Government service The
not available Furthermore they would probably increase
the Ill feeling existing on the subject.
1t has long been recognized by executive heads OF the
Government that sweeping rule not be adopted,
either from the standpoint of government efficiency
justice to employees. Each individual should
be settled upon its merits with the officer charged with
of dismissal giving full consideration the best
interests of the Government and the financial circum
stances of the employee
Dismissals indeed tragedies in times when
employment is widespread They affect many homes and
many lives; bring privaons distress The act is done
uctantly by every official 1t should be done
conscenousy, with the understanding that those most in
need of their salaries with dependents to support should
be retained if their records equal those who have some
thing to fall back upon" Personal animosites dskes,
influence etc. should have no bearing
1t is probably true related by writers of
communications that the majority of married
not working for selfish motives" and that many
of them independent of their positions charged
Doubtless the number is considerable however The reten
ton of these while and who actually need
poyment dismissed produces the bitterness revealed
communications.

lost NJ ASTER GENERAL.
HAYS makes this public an
nouncement:
Laws safeguarding the freedom
lof the press must and shall be
scrupulously observed
This is the most important an
nouncement made by member OF
the Cabinet since the new Admins
tration assumed its duties.
1t is not often that an Administra-
ton has to deal with questions so
fundamental that our forefathers
considered them important enough TO
put into the bill of rights of our con-
situations.
1t is not often that fundamental
right safeguarded by our forefathers
is so flagrantly violated and scorned
as it was by the Wilson Democratic
Administration.
Postmaster General Hays makes
good his general declaration by re-
storing to the second class mailing
privilege, the Liberator, radical So
cialist paper, whose doctrines would
be repudiated by ninety-nine out of
every hundred Americans. The Gov
eminent has also paid ito the Liberia
tor large sum of money, which is
the loss suffered by the Liberator for
the violation of its rights.
This indicates strange metamor-
phosis of parties, sad for a real Dem
ocrat to contemplate when the party
that is descended from Alexander
Hamilton is seen restoring the con-
stitutional freedom of opinion, of
press and of assemblage, which had
been destroyed by the party which is
descended from Thomas Jefferson.

nUBLIC men, those that accept
the peoples pay and spend the
peoples money, should get into
their heads, and KEEP in mind.
Dante's line: ....
"Give light and the people
will find their own way"
You can drive sheep, it is good for
them, they cannot learn to guide
themselves.
You can drive horses, mules and
machinery.
But all that you can do for human
beings is to give them knowledge
and then enable them TO FIND
THEIR OWN WAY.
One of the wisest sayings of Tai
mudic writer's is Jerusalem fell be-

The schools are neglected in this
day Of profteering, prosperity and
selishness.
A country that can spend eight
hundred million dollars in one year
for cigarettes, and that without hest
tation spent forty or fifty thousand
millions of dollars in a few months
of war, cannot find the money to pay
teachers generously or build enough
schools to wipe out the illiteracy
that curses % per cent of the people
and disgraces us all.
The people of the world are like

THERE is never going to be any
guarantee of the safety of human

guarantee OF the safety OF human
life that is not based upon the
human factor.
1t is well enough to invent safety
devices, but the best safety device
in the world is intelligence.
No amount of signs, notices, sem
aphores, red lanterns, machinery or
policemen can save an absent-mind-
ed man, who will not look where he
is going, from breaking his neck.
Safety, in other words, along with
many other things that we think we
can get by clevemess, can only be
gotten through education. There is
no short cut
This truth is apparent in a state
nent issued by Vice President C..
w. Galloway, of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. Speaking of the ac-
cidents by grade crossings, he said:
Despite all the active warfare
that has been waged to combat
this evil, the railroads find that
such casualties have been increas-
ing. In the four-yea period from
1917 to 1920, inclusive, on all the
railroads of the United States,
1900 persons were killed at grade
crossings in automobile accidents
and 1880 persons were injured.
This is an average of three per-
sons killed every day and eight
injured every day of this four
year period"
Fifteen per cent of the accidents
occurred where there were watch
men on duty, y per cent where
there were automatic electric bells
in perfect working order, and 5S
where there were warning signs.
The railroads are realizing the
truth that only by securing public
cooperation can they reduce the
fatalities. 1t seems to be a disease
that is best cured by advertisement.
We are finding out that adver-
Using is not only for the purpose of
selling goods tomorrow, but is also
the best means for laying the founda-
tion for better business in a year or
ten years from now.
Advertising is not only available
rs means of selling goods, but also
as means (and the only means) of
establishing an idea or conviction
in the mind of the public.
The Government discovered dur
ing the war the immense value of
advertising. Churches are learning
Low to advertise effectively without
lowering their dignity. Banks that
formerly regarded advertising con-
temptuously now almost universally
adopt it in one way or another.
Sooner or later every enterprise
must come before the bar of public
opinion. When that trial comes it
discovers that its fate largely de-
ponds upon whether or not it has
taken the trouble properly to ad-
vertise.

body of people, that the last word
