terrible physical and mental fortunes often
caused by a depletion of the nervo-vital

In such cases it is worse than foolish TO

This is best accomplished by increasing the

DIVERGENT VIEWS ON LEGISLATIVE
 PROPOSALSSEEN
Voters of Five States Approve Bonus MeaSure-Prohibi- ton Wins and Loses
 in Election
By Associated Press

Chicago, November 12.-The shift ing political opinion of the country's s voters recorded as widely divergent views on legislative proposals as on the candidates involved In last Tues days election. according to the latest returns from all parts of the nation tonight.
 Relaxation of the present drastic prohibition laws. the soldiers bonus, measures seeking governmental economy demands for greater expen- ditures of the public funds, new taxa tion progress. bills designed to bene- fit the farmers and Sunday blue laws were some of the propositions on which the voters recorded their opinions.
 Because of the greater attention directed to the candidates, the re- turns from the state referendums are delayed, many of the issues still re- maining in doubt. In several cases the outcome will not be decided un- til the official vote has been can vassed.
 On the prohibition issue. Illinois pofied an almost two to one vote in favor of beer and light wines. and Ohio defeated the same proposition, but by a smaller majority. While Massachusetts rejected measure providing for more stringent state prohibition enforcement California voted in favor of a similar proposal. Prohibition supporters explained tho size of the Illinois majority by de-

 It Is one of the strongest tradi- tions of British public life that all transactions in the cabinet should be held sacredly secret. Nearly all the shining figures in this campaign have sat together in the cabinet dur ing some part of the past four years, and the temptation to drag out skele- tons from the cabinet closet has proved too great strain on human nature and some of the members have yielded.
 Lord Curzon, the model of conven- ton and propriety among all Brit ish statesmen, has had & lively set- to with Winston Spencer Churchill. Curzon has revealed, as though 1t were an accusation, that Mir. Churchill wrote the alarmist state mcnt about the Turkish crisis issued to the public. which began the trou- bles of the coalition; that Curzon himself knew nothing about it and deplored 1t.
 Mir. Churchill has replied in sub stance that Lord Curzon would have known all about 1t If he had been in London attending to hls cabinet busi- ness instead of enjoying himself at his country place over Sunday when a great crisis was afoot. And Curzon has retorted that the crisis was not bad enough to prevent several cab met ministers from spending a cheerful weekend with Premier Lloyd George at Chequers Court.

FORMER GOVERNOR
 GOES ON TRIAL IN
 PENSACOLA TODAY
Alleged Irregularities During Term of Office Charged Against Catts-CIaims
 Political Persecution
By Associated Press

Pensacola, November 12.--Sidney J. Catts, who in 1915. a comparative newcomer to the state, upset It's po- litical equilibrium by boiting the democratic party altar losing the gu- bernatorial nomination and secured the governors office as an indepen- dent prohibitionlst, Is scheduled to go on trial In federal court here Thurs day on the second of two indictments growing out of alleged irregularities during his four-year term.
 He faces two counts of a federal in- dlctment charging that he held two negro ex-convlcts in peonage on his farm in Walton county. It will be his second appearance on this charge. At the last term of court his counsel demurred to the IA counts In the in- dictments and 12 of them were dis missed by Federal Judge Sheppard.
 This federal charge and a state charge alleging that he accepted brlge to influence hls vote in the pardoning of state convicts came early in 1921 and followed an investi- gation by a Joint legislative commit- tee into Mr Catts' acts during his tenure of office. The committee never made public It's report but the federal and state indictments devel- oped during It's investigation.
 The state charge relating to tho pardening of convicts was dismissed by Circuit Judge A. V. Long at Lake Butler. Union county, last spring.
 Mir. Catts charges that the two in- dlctments were the outgrowth of po- litlcal persuction.

 DIR. DILLARD'S SERIES OF SERMONS ON THE "SEVEN AGES OF MAN"

Dr. James E. billiard, pastor of the southside Baptist church. preached the third of series of Sunday eve- ming sermons on the Seven Ages of Man" Sunday night. The theme dealt with the ages from nine to twelve years, and he chose the "Helter- Skelter" twins to represent the boys and girls of that age.
 Dr. billiard said In part: These twins are robust and rampant. They have had the chicken-pox. humps. measles and other diseases common to children, and now they are in the best of health and full of energy. They are like steam engines and the surplus energy must escape or they will burst. They always go bare headed, they are always in a hurry. when they whisper they scream. They may not know what they are doing, but they are doing it In a hurry. Wise parents, teachers and preachers understand these bundles of energy and will direct them rather than attempt to suppress them.
 These helter- -skelter twins are in the reading age. They will read any thing just so there is life in 1t. They read for thrills and not for thought Do not expect them to read and enjoy the story of the good little boy. who always said his prayers. died and went to heaven. They want life, ad- venture, travel and heroism. They are not particular whether the hero Is a missionary or a pirate. The way to keep boy from eating a green apple is to put ripe one where he will find 1t.
 These twins are in tho reSentive age. What they see and hear they will remember. Be careful that no bad or ugly pictures are hung on memory's walls. Poison should be locked up. These twins are in the finding and fact time. They are making collections of various and sundry things. Go into that boys room and you will find collections of postage stamps, pictures, cigar bands, bugs or something. He is making similar mental collections.
 They worship heroes. It Is very essential that the boy have a he- man for dad and Sunday school teacher. and 1t Is equally important that the little girl have real woman and not fashion plate or a butter fly for a mother. Then this Is good time to win the future for Jesus Christ, the worlds greatest hero."

 Bonus Favored
 Four of the five states in which the question was up boiled heavy votes for the soldiers bonus. while in the fifth, Oklahoma, the verdict also was favorable. but the majority smaller. Illinois. Iowa. Kansas and California returned unmistakable majorities in favor of adjusted com pensation through the payments of state funds. In Oklahoma an official count may be necessary.
 In South Dakota the question of Sunday amusements was before the voters. who decided by two to one vote in favor of strict ban on all Sum day festivities, while a measure pro- viding for state regulation of motion pictures was rejected In Massachu- setts.
 Among other questions acted upon were the following:
 Minnesota Voted to loan the state credit to help it's farmers; Michigan opposed state income tax; South Dakota rejected a proposition that 1t engage in the banking business, and Nebraska indorsed an anti-picketing law.

ENGLAND DOES NOT

 ELECTION RESULTS
With Issues Obscure, Political Observers Are Afraid to Make FnrecastS-Lloyd
 George on Defensive
By Associated Press

London, November 12.-while tho orators have had their last day of rest. before the day of voting the seers and oracles are working over time to cast the horoscope of the fu- ture. Political prophecy is under a cloud at present, because a great ma jority of the newspaper experts went wrong in predicting that MT. Lloyd Georges friends would control the Carlton club meeting, which cast off the coalition and declared the con servative party's independence.
 Although the prophets take les son from the American elections fresh in their minds and hedge with the admission that while they are making their predictions on normal form in the political race, their fore casts may come to grief through some unforeseenable cause.
 The only issue in doubt next Wednesday. when the general cleo tions are held, according to the claims. of the conservatives. IS whether Bonar Laws party will com mand a majority in the House or Commons. That 1t will elect more members than any other party is not questioned at any of the political HI Aoh4Oh'
 Lloyd George CheereA
 Coalition and cooperation are two devices which were thrown over board at the Carlton club, and wnicn the conservatives certainly are anx- ious to steer clear of. because they want to return to straight party gov ernment. Lord Beaverbrook's Daily Express, which backs Bonar Law strongly. gives him 40 majority; the Asquith liberals and labor eacn about 120 seats, and the Georgian liberals not more than 35.
 If the crowds cheers could be de- pended on to mean votes, Lloyo George and his cause might se ex- pected to be swept back into power a wave of popular enthusiasm. The former prime minister has been the one vital and magnetic person l. ality of the campaign, although MT. Asquith's meetings developed unex- pected favor for the retired ieader. But while the real issue is vote or confidence or no confidence In the Lloyd George government. tranquil -hty seems to suit the country's mood.
 The short campaign now closing has been one of the soberest and tamest In modern days, as well as one of the most complicated. Inere is no clear-cut issue to excite pas sions or enmities; there Is no great leader making a crusade Tor any great cause. Mir. Lloyd Georges plan of strategy has been to defend his administration, and he Is decided ly at his best on the offensive.
 Bonnr Law Criticised
 Apparently none of the big fight CTS in this campaign desires to in- ,lct wounds that would leave scars, because the new group division In the Commons will make some CO., operation scheme possibility, ana no one knows with whom he may be marching next month.
 Premier Bonar Laws opponents naturally have made the most of his now famous stumble, We don't know where we are" and another cry against him has been: There are too many lords and sons of lords in his cabinet MT. Lloyd George has
