YOUR RHEUMATISM
Remove Its Cause by Purifying
Your Blood.

One of the most important duties
OF your system is to burn up certain
substances no longer of use in your
body. One is uric acid, now gener-
ally held to he the cause Of rheuma-
tism. 1t iulames the joints, stit-
fens the muscles, causes pains,
aches. and lamcness.
The system is helped to dispose
of this troublesome substance. and
rheumatism is permanently relieved.
by Hoods Sarssparilla, the one true
blood purifier, II is aided in many
cases bv Hoods Pills which in
small doses are gentle laxative,
In larger doses an active cathartic.
A grand course of treatment,

OF THE SEASON
A Protest Apdinst Hate

Violet II. Markham, who in private

James Carruthers, of the British Army,
spent a year with the army Of occupa-
ton in Cologne. She has written Of her
experiences in a most Illuminating and
human book which she calls watching
on the Rhine" George II. Doran CO...
The book is a study Of conquered Ger
many. Of the attitude Of the people to-
ward the conquerors and Of the attitude
which the conquerors should take to-
ward the conquered. Mrs. CaTuthers
quotes the wish of an Englshman that
Germany might go Bolshevist and that
the people might kill one another for n
time. and protests against 1t by re-
minding her readers that bolshevism Is
disease which can be treated by no
sanitary Gordon and that ruin in Cen
trail Europe would imperil the rest OF
the Continent. ''The fatal habit of
thinking war;" she writes, still DOM
mates whole classes of people through
ont the allied countries; but the busi-
ness of the hour is peace, and to oe
laggard about peace today is us crlmlia'
os to have been laggard about war when
Europe and civilization stood menacea.
But The book is not merely a plea lor
peace. 1t is record OF the obserVa, !,

Keen EN- Sweet

To the Editor OF Hs Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-As one interested in children who
are unspoled. who are content with being
and acting as children, and who are being
trained for good American citizens. I want
to enter my protest against the epidemic OF
fancy dancing for children that seems TO be
sweeping the country. Each day ! read
my favorite paper or magazine, l see pic
ture after picture OF darling little young
sters. clad in outrngeously scanty costumes
and standing in IN affected pose. No won
der the reformers today are crying out
clothing. How can little grls grow UP to
trained TO dress and act in such "a way as
to gain the plaudits Of ennuied men and
women. The practice OF allowing four and
Ave year old children to entertain at meas
banQuets. late at night. in smoky hotel
bathrooms. Is one which makes thouGhtful
person gasp to think about. OF course, the
children enjoy the plaudits. but II they
grow used to such applause. how will they
ever be able to get down to brass taCks''
and prepare for the real duties OF life?
do not believe in tho old adage that
children should be seen and not heard, for
believe that the kiddIes most i'm
portant; that their opinions should he lis
toned to deferentially and that their actlvi-
ties should be commented upon frequently.
But | do think that they should be allowed
to lead tho simple life; not breathing the
breath of crowded bathrooms late at night,
with enthusiastic applause their nightly
diet.
Let them learn dancing early. by all

Letters to the Editor
The Announced "Wet Paradox

To the Editor Of the Eueniip Public LEDGER:
sir-I think that the announced wet pa
rade that will take place in New York on
July Is one OF the greatest insults to the
American public that has ever been insti-
tuted. 1t is a parade that should not be
permitted, for II Is a defiance OF the law.
and every one who parades can be looked
upon as law-hreaker. At the present time
have friend from a foreign country visit
Ing at my home, and he said to me. at
has been my privilege since coming to your
country to spend about three months in va
ticuo cities situated between San Francisco
and Washington, and every day / have
marveled al the sobrlety Of your citizens
and the absence of Objectionable street
scenes. So impressed am that again and
again have found myself asking the aues-
other countries7 Why are they freer from
drunkenness vice and poverty than is the
case In Australia, my homer Tho answer
I get is usually, oh. we've got prohi-
biton,' and this reply is usually followed by
an expression of opinion as to the merits
ment"
For the life of me I cannot understand
any citizen OF good standing wishing TO re-
peal law which makes for the elimina-
ton Of drunkenness, the lcssenng OF crime,
the protection of the weak and which en-
cuurages good citizenship. prosperous busi-
ness and happy domestic life. expect the
brewer to oppose prohibition because his
NeSteu interests are JeOparulEeu' dHl huN
surprised at the saloOn-keeper opposing It..
because 1t outlaws his business and compels
him either to shut down or to change tho
bill OF fare"
But for the decent fathers and good
mothers and respectable and honorable citi-
2ens to take part in n procession OF pro-
test to weaken the enforcement Of splen-
did nation building movement-well 1t is
surprising, to say the least.
