YOUR SOUL POWER.

ITALIAN doctors say that post-mortem examination
Il OF Caruso's throat showed that his vocal cords
were twice the normal length.
Carusos lung power also phenomenal His lungs
were strong, energy-creatng that he could make
the cords of piano vlbTato by merely breathing on
them.
"Caruso" say the learned doctors, was magnificent
singing machine from head to foot That explains
why he a master singer"
The doctors are wrong Caruso the greatest
singer Of all the 1,6OOO 100000 people earth But,
unquestionaby there thousands OF others whose

without this equipment, Caruso would not have been
a great singer.
But the thing that made him marvel OF song was

AGAINST A SOLDIER BONUS.

AGAINST A SOLDIER BONUS.
From the Dover Index.
We do not think that the Govern
ment owes any soldier In the late
war. who is not disabled, a bonus or
any other money compensation. Yet
we are as grateful to our boys who
did their part as anyone else and we
shall never feel that we can do them
enough honor for their patriotism
and public service. The argument
that they we're taken from jobs or
deprived Of opportunities. when they
might have received big wages or
made lots of money by prohteerlng
does not appeal to us. II Is a sordid
view. How many people at home
did not get big wages or prohteer
but really lost by the war, or sac
rihced and suffered and today are
poorer because Of the war? OF
course we have no sympathy with
the view OF those who think OF the
soldiers bonus as a burden that they
would shirk because OF Its cost in
dollars and cents. Such people see
nothing wrong in a ship subsidy or
tariff graft or other special benefits
at the expense OF the masses. We
can't make up TO the soldiers for any
business opportunities they lost. We
can't pay them In dollars and cents
for their inconvenience. hardshins
or patriotic service. The right kind
OF soldier does not want money for
these things and the other sort
should not have It. II would do the
latter little II any good, most oil
them It would do harm. It seems tC
us far better to recognize out fin
ances, Gu down expenses. relieve ms
Of burdensome taxes and get back
20 healthy business conditions so
that every able bodied young man
who has come back from the war
can have a chance to work and earn
a living.

PLANT JUICE HAS
RESTORED HEALTH

"You certainly have a wonderful
medicine in Plant Juice for II has
helped both my wife and myself"
said Mr.. H. H. Black. a well known

Of bed she was suffering badly from
constipation and she said II seemed
as though her whole system was
clogged up with poisonous matter
which she could not eliminate. Her
kidneys were badly affected. She
had pains in her back and also had
bad pains in her head. She had no
appetite whatever and what little
food she took into her stomach did
not digest right. but caused her
constant pain and misery She
couldn't sleep at night for her suf-
fering.
"She tried ever so many medi-
cines. but none OF them helped her.
Then It seemed that everywhere we
went we heard people talking about
Plant Juice and finally a friend OF
ours tolds us that this remedy was
Just what my wife needed and said
that she knew OF people who had
been as bad off as my wife and who
we're restored to normal health by
Plant Juice.
after that my wife started taking
Plant Juice and results came in just
a few days. The poisons began TO
work out OF her system. She has
taken several bottles of Plant Juice
now and is relieved OF the pain in
her head and back; nerves are quiet
so that she sleeps soundly and she
looks and says she feels like a diff
ferent woman.
"I had suffered from constipation
more or less all my life and also was
troubled with indigestion. When 1
saw what wonderful results my wife
derived from Plant Juice I started

Wilson s Way or No Way
(From the New York Trlbune)


Senator Robinson's attack on the
four-power Pacific treaty was can
didly described by the Washingto on
correspondent of THE New. York
Times" as "the FIRST onslaught from
the ranks OF those Senators who fol-
lowed Woodrow Wilson in the fight
for the League Of Nations and have
since remained loyal to the eX-
President" Mr.. Roblnsons argu-
ments may therefore be assumed to
express the Wilson point of view.
The Arkansas Senator says that
the four-power treaty constitutes an
alliance" and should be rejected
on that ground. II is an association
OF the four chief powers with in
sular possessions in the Pacific to
discourage aggression there. Each
slgnatory is obligated to respect the
territorial rights of the other sigma
tories and to consult In case of at
tack by an outside power. This is
plainly a regional agreement for
maintaining peace OF the sort which

In order to maintain the barren
proposition that what we could do
as a member OF the league we ought
not to try to do as a non-member.
What theory are the Wilson SEN
ators pursuing except that the
United States must never do in any
other way what II declined to do In
Mr. Wilson's way? There must first
be long years OF repentance in sack
cloth and ashes. Mr.. Wilson and
Mr.. Baker wanted to have Congress
support a regular army Of $4,000
men, so that he could send a couple
of hundred thousand men to Ar
menia. or, perhaps fulfill the i'm
piled pledge he made at Paris TO
Rumania to defend her boundaries
against aggression. He and Mr..
Daniels wanted to spend 100000
600 a year building a navy big
enough to insure us the mastery OF
the seas. Why7 Simple because
the Senate ballSed at accepting the
covenant without reservations.
Must we do these things solely
because we are not in the league,

vive the Anglo-Japanese treaty. to

to restore chaos In the Far East and
to throw us back to where we were

vatlon. Why? Well, apparently,
only because Mr.. Wilson decided 70
