states have been in the passage of a law
providing for the revocation of licenses

For years there are those who have
clunr to the idea that they We're enti-
tied to take anything they could get their
hands upon. They have made it a prae-
tee TO go into the countryside and raid
the gardens and fields OF the farmers for
the purpose Of maintaining their house

at wonderful profit even though they
disposed Of their fresh supplies far be-
low the store prices.
No one could tell how much farmers
have lost through the activities of sucf
raiders. Connecticut. and probably av

plentv OF experience with such people
whose denredations have multiplied as
they have had the advantage of tn,
quick means of transportation afforded
by the automobile. Good roads and tn
auto make distance no handicap.
It doesn't appear that such Law
wonl' solve the entire problem. In al

with interest the enactment and en-

By HARRISON VAUGHN

When Napoleon led his victorious
armies through Europe his worst enc
mics were not the nations defending
themselves against his smashing on
slaught; but he was confronted by the
gFaver question of how to provide
nourishing and strengthening food fo-
his soldiers
The Great Corsican realized long
over a century ago, as has every COM
manding general since, that mems
bodies must be perfectly nourished if
they are to retain their natural
strength, energy and vigor; in fact,
that the very health OF the human
being is regulated almost entirely by
the stomach. Undertaking, insult
ficient nourishment. means loss of
flesh, anaemia, lack of red blood and
subsequent weakness of the entire sys-
TEN.
What such people need to enable ma
ture to bring back their strength and
vigor, restore their lost weight, and
put them in fighting trim, with rich
red blood coursing through their veins
is Tanlac, the powerful recons.ructive
tonic and body builder.
A man or woman suffering from sour
stomach. bad breath, biliousness, in
digestion, or gas on stomach, is IN
fitted either for physical or mental
labor Sufferers from these ailments
find life burden; they look on the
world through blue glasses, the Joy and
rewards of the vigorous, happy, nor.
maIly healthy person is not theirs
Their troubles embitter them agains
the world, dstroy their ambitions ant
make their lives duh and unhappy.

People are talking a great deal today
about the welfare of our country, our duty
at the baEot box, and the prospects OF
the various candidates We are discus
sing. as it is night, We should discuss the
partseuiar needs OF our country. The
particular need OF our country, the par
ticular need of every country, in the open
visition Of the righteousness Of Jehovah,
the open vision of incarnate, never firing
love. We may elect candidates and plat
form after platform, but untn in our ma
tional life, uatil In err spiritual life as
individuals, there is born again the de-
sire of that vision of the God of righteous
ness and the God of pity, every s-fen1e OF
reform is fig1aent of q vain magma

the wrongs that are preying upon our
lands. Without national holiness we VIII

only we will repent and turn and do tbs

Broken Words


The foregoing title does not refer
to fractured promises. Its meaning is
more literal 1t is the characteristic
of that type of handwriting which
you have often seen, no doubt, in which
the words are not written with a con-
tinuous stroke of the pen. 1t is The
writing of the person who breaks his
or her written words up into two or
three pieces by failing to join letters
here and there.
In It's most common form this char
acteristie shows itself in the failure to
connect a capital letter with the rest
of the word by a continuous stroke.
This is the simplest and least signifi-
cant degree. The extreme is where the
writer makes nearly every letter sep
arately, or writes in convenient little
groups Of two or three lettes. and
leaves considerable of a gap between
the groups giving the page a rather
disconnected appearance.
Such writing as this is an indica-
ton Of intuition. Those who write this
way are those who make up theii
minds quickly as a result of instinc-
tive inner consciousness rather thar

mustache, and when he spoke full
lips framed his words noticeably. His
habit was that of a man at ease in
any company, who sets a good value
on himself Ind co..ldcItly looks Tor

He talked well, with assurance,
some humor, and fair amount of
information. he had lived several
years in the state, off and on, and
on the whole approved of them. He
had pottered bit with the cinema
at home and he might jog out to
Los Angeles and see what was to be
seen iii that capital Of the world S
motion picture industry. England, he
didn't mind admitting, had a good
ish bit to learn from America in the
cinema line. If you asked Lontaine,
it was his considered belief that the
really top-hOle productions of the
future would come of combining
American brilliance of photography
and investiture with European
thoroughness in acting and direc-
ton.
This forecast was uttered with an
authority that impressed even Lu-
cinda, deliberately unintedested as
she was. She had maintained half
smile of amiable attention which
would have deceived sharper man,

her comprehension that life with Bel
