Hawaiian Forests.

The magnificent forests of ohialehua
which abound on the mountain side of
Hawaii carry their grayish splendor
skyward for eighty or more feet, while
giant tree-ferns reaching to height OF
twentyafour feet give off fronds that
tower still dozen feet above. So
rich is the soil in which these forests
are embedded that frequently the
ferns-uprooted by wild pigs which
are plentiful here-continue their
growth while PROSTATE in the dense
underground. Mile upon mile of trail
intersecting these forests, frequently
between the close, ragged lava walls.
are fianked by a jungle growth Of
ferns and creepers.- Exchange.

Rev. B. M. Bridges
Gives Facts in
His Case

It is doubtful If there has ever been
a medicine endorsed by SO many minis
tiers of the Gospel as has Tanlac. In
deed, there Is scarcely faith, creed
or denomination in all the land In
which one. or more. of the clergymen
has not publicly expressed their in
debtedness to the Premier Preparation
for the benefits they have derived from
its use.
One of the latest to speak out in
this connection is Rev. B M. Bridges,
a widely known and beloved Baptist
preacher, residing at Mooresboro. N.
c., whose statement follows:
"Tanlac has given me Il good appe-
tite. toned up my system and renewed
my strength in such gratifying way
that / am glad to recommend it to any
one who Is in rundown condition.
For ten years past have had such
severe case Of indigestion that I
could not find anything to eat that
agreed with me. Finally became
very nervous and could get but very
little sleep or rest.
SIT seems that took nearly every
thing trying to get myself right, but
nothing helped me until | ran across
Tanlac. My nerves are so much better
now that my sleep is sound and re-
freshing. enjoy my meals and have
also gained weight. L cam say from
experience that Tanlac is a splendid
medicine and tonic, for it has built
me up wonderfully"
Tanlac is sold by oil good druggists.

Tariff Means Prosneritu

THERE is NO USE theorizing about the prob.
L able effects of tariff, when we can look back
over our one hundred and thirty-three years of his
tory and see exactly how it works.
Protective tariff is known abroad as The ~Amer-
lean plan" 1t has built us up from a puny nation
to the richest on earth, and every important coun.
try taking note, has now adopted a tariff plan of
its own.
We had a strong protective tariff until 1886.
After that we began TO wobble, until, after sixteen
years of no protective tariff, from 1s45 to 1861
We had very dark times of panic and depression.
Ihree-fourths of our industries quit business and
laborers were ont OF work. President Bucbanan
said of the period; Hope seems TO hive deserted

oountry's grasp at the close OF the

Great Britain. along with an enviablo

courage with which the goverAnent Of

1t proposes to deal with its former al.

do rot like this. And, believing as 1
do. in a genuine A-mericarism. .
l intend to do all in my power to
bring about the formulation Of such a
program as l am here suggesting. and
to do all that 1 car TO carry it into
effect" Thus writes ths Sat onai Re
publican.
The program" which is suggested
Ia Americas participation in the so
called league Of nations, which Justice
Clarke retired from the supreme bench
to promote.
What is tho moral leadership" to
which former Justice Clarke refers.
and which he says America has lost
to Great Britain?N Is tho test of
moral leadership participation In
the league Of nations?
The league is called an international
organization for tho preservation of
peace OF the world. Really, 1t is an
alliance dominated by a fow strong
European powers for the purpose OF
mutual protection OF the territorial in
tegrity and political Independence of
its members.
Current events in Europe demon
strate the utter helplessnsss OF the
league to maintain peace or preserve
the territorial integrity and political
independence OF its members. Great
Britain ignores the league, and is send
ing ships of war and armies to prevent
the Turks from crossing into Euro
pean Turkey and taking possession OF
Constantinople. now a neutral port.
This course is pursued by Great Brit.
ain, not SO much TO protect the terms
Of the Versailles treaty as to protect
British interests. for British interests
in Egypt and India and Mesopotamla
are threatened by the military actlv-
tiles of tho Turks.
Constantinople and the Bosporus
have been the key TO the Far East, and
the strategic point round which ma
tions have fought. not for moral, but
for material leadership. The Crime

to prevent Russia from capturing Con
stantinople. The world war was
