Had Spent Thousands

Every Known Rem
edy Without Finding
Relief

Getting rid Of the rheumatism at
thisl late day completely mystifies me,
for l had had it for fifty years and
had spent thousands of dollars" was
the statement made recently by Will
liam H. Hayes, well-known resident
of Roxbury, Mass, in relating his re-
markable experience with Tanlac.
Mr.. Hayes has been identified with
the people of Roxbury for forty
years and is highly respected and es-
teemed by all who know him.
This rheumatism got me when
just lad in my teens and, while 7
resorted to every known remedy,
kept getting worse as the years went
by. For the past few years every
bone in my body seemed to be aching
clean to the marrow and my joints
would get so stiff and sore it was
agony to bend them. For two years
past the pains in my feet and legs
were so intense for days at a time
that l could not put my feet on the
ground. When 7 did get out | simply
had to hobble along at a snail's pace.
The pains finally settled in my arms,
shoulders and hands. These two
hands were SO swollen and out of
shape l could not hold a pen or pen
Gil to write a letter. I couldn't sleep

ing the day, and life was truly bur-

well, was just about ready to
give up the fight when my attention
was called to Tanlac. How this med
icine has done it don't know. but |
co know I haven't an ache or pain,
and I believe 7 could get out there
and walk distance of five miles and
make it in record time. To put it all
in few words. am now in better
condition than I have been in q half
century. I don't think anybody could
have better reasons for feeling
thankful to Tanlac than I have"

FAITH AND )HoPE IN DEMoc.
RACY

Except for the fact that he was
liberal in political thought and always
on friendly relations with Americans
the opinions of the late Niscount
Bryce regarding democracy may be
| considered those of an unprejudiced
observer. Furthermore he was a
trained observer, acquainted with
fundamentals as we'll as details. like
wise was possessed of an intellect
| which commanded the respect of the
worlds best intellects. For these
reasons it is of interest to consider
his conclusions summing up his lat
est work, published last year. a two
volume book of Democracy:
I. 1t has maintained public order
| while securing the liberty of the in
dividual citizen.
II. It has given a civil admins
| tration as efficient as other forms of
government have provided.
III. Its legislation has been more
generally directed to the welfare of
the poorer classes than has been
that of other governments.
". 1t has not been inconstant or
ungrateful.
". 1t has not weakened patriot
| ism or courage.
VI. 1t has been often wasteful,
and usually extravagant.
VII. 1t has not produced general
. contentment in each nation.
VIII. 1t has done little to i'm
prove international relations and in
sure peace; has not diminished class
selfishness (witness Australia and
New Zealand); has not fostered a
| cosmopolitan humanitarianism nor
mitigated the dislike of men of a
different color.
IN. 1t has not extinguished cor
ruption and the malign influences
wealth can exert upon government.
Y. 1t has not removed the fear of
revolutions.
NJ. 1t has not enlisted in the
service Of the state a sufficient num-
her of the most honest and capable
, citizens.
MI. Nevertheless 1t has, taken
all in all, given better practical re-
suits than either the rule of one man
or the rule of class, for it has at
least extinguished many of the evils
by which they were defaced.
He found that while democracy is
spreading, the reputation ard moral
authority Of legislatures are declin-
ing and in some instances their power
is passing to the executives. This
serves to remind us OF what is going
on in this country and of the efforts
Of President Harding to restore the
former balance between the legisla-
, tive and executive branches, so seri-
ously dislocated by the exigencics of
war and aggravated by the tempera-
ment of Mr.. Wilson.
1t may afford a certain relief to
many that the conclusions of this
eminent observer are so encouraging.
1t helps to inspire the continuous eff
fort which is the price of the liberal
form Of government we enjoy. The

work of perfecting It may never be
done, but it must not cease. And we
must keep hold of faith, for: with
out faith nothing is accomplished,
and hope is the handspring of faith.
So may it be said that
Democracy will never perish till
after hope has expired"
Lord Bryce's contribution to that
hope and faith is priceless and de-
serves the consideration priceless
things should receive.

Month long for them to give their
bloom
And fragc: ice to my sittirg-ro
And each of them the sunlight knew,
To each was given water. too.
And Yet at first but one bulb grew,
And, rising, seemed just overnight
To reach a more than common height.
And then the budding blossom dried
Turned yellow, without scent-and
died.
Two others from their pebble bed
Thrust up an eager shining head,
And though they hourished tall and
No bud on either stalk was seen.
The last-I feared this stunted thing
No joy to eyes would ever bring;
No petaled cup of white would swing
Upon it's short and slender stem;
No splendid little flower gem
Would crown it-but with all my
doubt
y perfect bloom has blossoneI out.
SO lives. all beautiful and cold.
Deny the promise they forctod.
While others grow and leave TIE Earth

The weak can influence the strong;
The right be gathered from the

The blind-in wonders they create,
See visions that shall compensate:
From Lifes unfavored shines a soul
Like White Narcissus-in a howl.

BY CHICK CREATION. z

Secretary Tom Tracey of the Con- necticut A. A. U. used excellent judg- ment when he selected the five ath- letes to represent the Nutmeg state in the national championships at New ark, September 8, 9, and II, except ing in one case, is the dope passed along by some of the local followers of the spiked shoe trail. The case in question is that of Harold Higgins, 22O yard and quarter mile runner of the New Haven Earriers.. Adherents of the Bridgeport A. c. camp enter tain the opinion that there are sey- eraI runners under the Red and White colors who outclass Higgins in both the fuIrlong and quarter. In fact Alex Alison and George Lee have beaten him in previous races.
 MT. Tracey's selection includes the names of two B. A. c. athletes-AleX Alison, 220 yards and quarter miller and Eddie Tryon, who will probably enter the pentathlon event. The oth- CT state representatives are Roland Peplaw, New Britain A. A., 100 yards and broad jump; Albert Michaelson, Cygnet A. C., three mile and five mile

 According to the latest dope in To- cal fistic circles. Joe Smith has sign ed for Joe Saviola, his New. York fighter to meet the winner of next Monday nights battle between Pete August and Young Luby. Only few
 weeks ago August belonged to the

 August did not care to have Smith
 handle his affairs any longer and
 went to Jimmy Burns, Bogash'S trainer and asked him to do his bus mess in the future. Now Josephine
 Smith matches Saviola to meet his former meal ticket.
 Saviola who has been stepping at right fast clip of late, will make his second appearance before the local fans when he stacks up against Dick
 round semi-final. Saviola disposed of his last two opponents, in easy fashion. Wallace. who halls from New Haven, is reputed as rough, tough fellow with a hefty sock in I either nitt.

2 Records Made in 9O's
 Still Stand at Princeton

Two track records at Princeton hung up in the golden nineties still remain unequaled. Back in 1898 J. H. Rush, '9S, finished the 100 yard dash in 4-5 seconds, and there has not been a Tiger track athlete who has been able to repeat that perfor- nance since.
 A year later c. H. Fitzpatrick, '99, established the record for the half mile with a time of 1 minute 53 2-5 seconds. This record has still to be beaten. Every other record set by members of the so-ca1led athletic teams of the late nineteenth century have gone by the board.

 we went to Pittsburgh and stopped team that was hustling for the pen nant, then to Chicago and did the same to a team that was going at a fast pace. We'd have won all three in Chicago if Frisch hadn't made a silly run for third base with two on and nobody out. We'd have won that game right in that inning.
 "Groh is coming along. He isn't as fast as when his leg is all right, and he's been hitting in hard luck. He's hitting the ball hard, though, and his fielding in Chicago yesterday was of the best.
