Growth Of the Cities.

A Cleveland editor once said that
Cincinnatl's chief business was "pork
and politics." observes Girard In the
Philadelphia Press.
You have been told In advertise
ments q million times that certain
beer "made Milwaukee famous"
Everybody knows that Washington.
D. c.. has one big industry-holding
down government Jobs.
The new census figures from these
cities, all above 100000 are signti-
cant.
Pork population increased only 10
per cent in q decade, while beer popu-
lation expanded % per cent. Both
look small compared with the growth
in government job population Of 80
per cent.

And II was not charity, John, for my
charges were the same as those paid
to former caterers. But now my work
Is almost done When father heard of
my plan, and its success, he wrote
hastily, alphabetically. And when
you return home l think that you will
find him there ready to help in the re-
building Of your business. This time
it will be on a sure basis, John; this
time you will grow to success"
And as John Towers bent reverent-
ly to the radiant face Of his wife he
said softly:

PERIODIC BILIOUS ATTACKS

Persons subject to bilious attacks
at regular intervals know about when
to expect an attack. They find that
they have no desire for food when an
attack is due but usually eat because
IL is meal time. Skip one meal and
take three Of Chambe rlain's Tablets
and you may be able to avoid the
attack. Persons subject to periodic
bilious attacks should not drink tea
or coffee at any time May adv

Peaks Were overrated.

Two mountains on the other side OF
the Alhabaska pass named Mount
Brown and Mount Hooker, were
named in 1927 by d. Douglas, who
caused sensation when he stated
that they were 10000 and 1890 feet
high. respectively. All maps since
that date gave these elevations. The
British Columbia-Alberta boundary
survey has just checked the height of
the peaks and reduced them to 9,lo6
and 1912 feet, respectively.

The Trunk of Dead Tree Is Con-
vsrted Into an Attractive Pergola,
Over Which an Ornamental Vine Is
Trained.
writes c. L. Meller of Fargo, N. D., In
Popular Mechanics Magazine. A
straight board and a level made it
easy to bring the two branches of the
crotch to the same height; trial deter
mining the height that would appear
best-in this case about IL feet. The
top Is made of two 2 by 4-inch pieces
resting In recesses on the sides Of the
trunk and having their tops flush.
These pieces are each IL feet long
and the ends were curved, as shown
The 4-inch sides were nailed to the
trunk, while the 2115 foot crosspieces,
OF the same stock. were nailed, broad
side down; these were spaced about
8 inches apart and had their ends
beveled on the underside. Two coats

ABOUT DIGESTION.

1t is claimed that only half as
much food is required when It is
thoroughly .maSticated. Digestion
begins In the mouth and thorough
mastication of the food is OF the
greatest importance. When needed
take Cham berlain's Tablets to
strengthen the digestion and insure
regular movement Of the bowels.

Plan Early for Beauty.

All healthy cities desire beauty. Not
all have the chance to get it. Many
achieve their greatness with such stu
pendous expense of fortune that beau
ry Is wiped ont before the city has
time to lift its eyes from its labor t.
its landscape. The best time 10 plan
for beauty is when the city is starting
it's growth.

MILWAUKEE
Why Is a ROadhOuse?

Why is roadhouse?
In the days when the sale of in
toxicating liquor was lawful, the road
houses reason for being was that il
furnished refreshment for tourists and
the residents round about. But the
joys of sarsaparilla have been under
estimated if an automobile party will
travel any distance for any drink with
out a kick.
The seven girls who testified in court
last week told why one roadhouse was.
The only mention the roadhouse gets
in the newspapers is in connection with
some violation of the law, some vice.
some crime. There are few revolving
stories whose last chapter is the NOR
que that have not some trail that leads
to a roadhouse.
There is plenty of evidence that
some rOadhouses exist because they
are the centers of organized vice, that
others exist because they make viola
ton of the law easy. It is these that
corrupt the morals of the community.
They have no reason for being. The
way to clean up vice is to clean out
the nests.-Milwaukee Journal.

I RY THE
OTHER TACK

Don't talk pessimism. 1t puts SINH
lar ideas into the minds of other peo-
pie, and such ideas cerate doubt and
uncertainty and hamper the ordinary
progress of commercial activity and
expansion.
If you can't see anything good in the
future get some other fellow to do
your looking for you until you can
adjust yourself to conditions and ac-
quire better perspective of affairs
in general.
1t man goes out in the morning
and tells every person he meets that
he is sick, and keeps up the fiction
from day to day, it will grow on him
antil he is in reality unfit for business.
1t is SO in the business world. If
you want to create disaster go out and
preach it until other people begin to
take stock in what you say and to see
things as you do. Then you will soon
have disaster-at least for yourself.
But if you want better times go out
and preach them, and put the joy of
confidence into other hearts as well as
into your own. The response will be
just as great.
Be sport, and act the part.

Deb ATTN &
OPPORTUNITY

Should the United States open trade
relations with Russia ?
Should we give employment to our
people by supplying the Russians with
the goods they need in such enormous
quantities, and for which they are
ready to pay in gold?
: The Russian government is bolshev-
istic, in which we of America do not
believe
But we are not the Russian people,
and it is not our business to dictate
the form of government under which
they shall live. We may question their
methods, but the principle of non-in-
reference remains the same
Business today is not idealistic. 1t
is keen and competitive instead, and
the fellow who applies Utopian dreams
to his commercial activities will soon
cease to have anything but dreams.
If man of questionable character
should walk into a local store and ask
for suit of clothes the merchant
would promptly sell them to him, and
we would think no less of the mer-
chant for doing so.
We may not think much of the Rus
sian form of government, but oul
goods are manufactured to sell, and il
we are going to apply the acid test
to every Individual before he is allow
ed to purchase them we fear these
same goods will soon become a drug
in our own market.
Cutting off our nose to spite oul
face will not improve either our per.
sonal appearance or our economic con
dition
Sell to Russia or any other country
that has the gold with which to pay
for what they get.
Keep the wheels of commerce NOV
ing and American stomachs full.
