Of physical vigor. all Of which come
with the use Of cigarettes.
If young woman wants to court
premature age let her form the habit
Of smoking cigarettes, OF close the
night with a few glasses Of diluted
moonshine. She will look all Of thirty
when she is twenty-five and each sue
ceeding year will add two to her ap.
pearance.
More than this: She will find her
ideals diminishing. and her restraints
loosening up, and soon she will come
TO the crossing where a woman loses
all that makes for beauty and lowell
ness.
Ciraget smoking among men, all the
victims will confess it, brings a leth-
argy Of body, a sluggishness of mind
and a letting down of ideals. They
will tell you that the chief menace n
the innocent looking cigaret is the
Misunderstanding the smoke over
a large area Of the mueuous men,
brane Of the throat and lungs. The
result is a great weakening down of
nerve force, a harsh unmusical voice,
a loss Of brain power and moral
stamina. 1t is all this in men. 1t
will be much more so in women for
their bodies have not the strong ply
steal resistance of men.
Cigaret smoking among women may
be merely a fad, copied by the more
careless and Indifferent. Or il may
be the fore-funnef of a more degraded
social state than the world has ever
known. 1t is best to be on the safe
side, and if by any manner we may
impress young women with the vital
Importance of preserving the decency
and purity of the race, which has
largely been lost by the intemperance
Of men, we should leave no stone un-
turned to make the lesson impressive.
Again we repeat, if young woman
wants to be beautiful and admired by
her male companions let her by all
means refrain from cigarettes. For
as surely as she smokes them she will
not long retain her beauty. And she
is quite likely to lose that which
every normal woman prizes more
highly than beauty-that which alone
commands the respect of men.

NO ONE CAN CON-
troll THE TRADE
UNIONISTS VOTE

New York, Oct. mo man with
an ounce of brains believes any Off
Ger Of the American Federation of
Labor can deliver the votes of labor"
said Samuel Gompers, president of
the A. +. of L., in newspaper in
terview.
I'VE have never attempted to do
what our critics say of us-deliver
the labor vote. The only vote | cons
troll is my own. That will be cast for
LaFollette and Wheeler Mr.. Com
pers said.
"The claims of the old-party can
didates since their conventions are
wholly at variance with the declara-
tons of the two platforms. 'They
are made because people are aroused /;
because organized labor has spoken,
these latter-day declarations have
been made.
''They are not binding on the par
ties. As now constituted, neither
party is responsive to the will of the
people"
President Gompers said no English
court would dare annul mandates of
the people, as have courts in the
United States.
after years of effort" he said, 1--WE
finally prevailed upon congress to
enact laws to Safeguard the welfare
and interests of the people. In every
instance in the last Is years. despite
our efforts the courts have annulled
them. No English court would dare
take such an attitude toward any law
passed by parliament.
at is a strange situation that an
attempt is being made to place a
stigma upon congress, as though the
members of that body were the
wrongdoers. As a matter of fact
congress in the last year has been
more responsive to the public than
any congress in a decade. The defec-
tons of both parties have worked 70
the benefit of the people"

Jas. now the chief aim Of Organ
zed LABOR. is to prevent further cor
rupdon Of the courts in the interest Of
those vino are opposed to Labor.
The overthrow Of injunction judges
| the right of trial by jury Of Union
men arrested in times Of strike, the
power To force action in the interest
of progressive legislation, and if
necessary, The curtaiIment Of Supreme
Gour, authority by the people and
the limiting Of terms of office Of Su-
preme Court judges-these are some
.of the reforms that Labor is now
eekioe. The results Of the recent
election will have no bearing what
ever in minimizing the importance of
seeking these reforms.
Union Labor has no wish to foster
such reforms in order to procure jus
tice if justice can be procured in a
manner more satisfactory to all the
American people. Labor is not de-
termined % require such changes
merely as a hobby 1t is intent only
upon procuring a remedy for the mis-
carriage of justice. If during the
next quadrennium the courts show
less inclination to render decisions on
debated questions in a manner dis
pleasing to Labor there will be less
need Of reform in the method of
selecting Supreme Court judges, or in
curtailing Supreme Court authority.
Labor, however, in making it's de-
mands, may be as impudent as Wall
Street who dared the American people
to elect LaFollette as president, and
promised panic in case he happened
to be elected. Similarly Labor may
admonish the powers that be to the
effect that if court decisions are
habitually antagonistic to Labor.
aims the demand for reform will bt
more insistent than ever, Like a few
other people in the world Labor is de
termined to obtain its ends and is no
too conscientious to resort to the pres
sure system in emergency. This is on'
thing Labor has learned from Wal
Street.

In fact the stability Of any Labor

If young women know what is good
for them they will not form the habit
of using cigarettes. The average
young woman wants to be beautiful
and to be admired for her personal
appearance. She is a victim of fads
and fancies, most of which are inno-
cent. If she is not exactly beautiful
she may resort to cosmetics and To-
tons to give her the counterfeit of a
clear complexion.

NOT KEEPING UP WITH RE.
QUlREMENTS

Without making comparison with
our naval bases or our merchant ma
rine, Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
Of the navy estimates that this
country rates second, the ratio stand
ing: Great Britain S, United States 4
and Japan 3. A previous critic has
put the ratio at 5-3-1. Both esti-
mates are below the ratio fixed at
the Washington conference and
Roosevelt's leaves out of considera-
ton an element of great Importance,
such as naval bases and merchant
marine. OF the latter we have little
to rely upon, the crews of our ships
lot being trained and subject to or
ders in event of war. Our naval
bases are said to be unequal to de
mands which would arise were we
called upon to defend the Philippines
and Hawaii. There is no doubt we
are not equipped as we should be
with light cruisers. The likelihood
of any legislation remedying this
may not be hopefully looked for
from the present Congress. While
probably there is no cause for pres
ent apprehension on that account we
should not forget the wisdom of
maintaining our naval ratio at the
mark set by the conference and see
to it that this Is done in the near
future

Just then the stage coach came

Hold on." shouted the little rab-
bit, I'm going to Turnip City to see

kissing his mother goodbye, he
jumped up beside the Old Dog
Driver. and away they went, through
the Shady Forest, until by and by
the Stagecoach stopped at the River
ferry boat. Once over the river, 1t
was only a few hops to Lettuce
Square where stood the big circus
lent. The little rabbit felt very
happy until the man at the gate
wouldn't let him in.
Oh, dear and maybe oh, dear
three times again. If just then the
Circus Elephant hadn't looked out
through the big curtains at the en-
trance to the tanbark.
Hello, hop right under the brass
rail. You don't need a ticket"
shouted the big kind animal, and in
less time than l can take to tell 1t,
the little rabbit was sitting in a
box watching the three big rings
all at once, which is a mighty hard
thing to do, let me tell you, unless
you have two extra eyes. one in
each side of your head.
Pretty soon he almost hoped out
of the box, for there on a wooden
platform were the Big Brown Bears
two little cubs. Bouncer and Buster,
each riding a bicycle.
Then. all of a SUDDEN, Danny Fox
jumped through hoop of fire with
out smuggling a hair on his long bushy
tail, and the circus elephant came
running down the tanbark ring
with load of happy boys and girls
on his great broad back.
Now this is all for tonight, but in
to-morrow's story YOU shall hear
more about Little Jack Rabbit at
the circus.

PUBLIC SERVANTS MERITlNG
CREDIT

Commenting on the governors veto
of a new state highway project that
would have included many miles Of
road to be built as a political favor
and not as a necessity, New York
paper says: New York has seen
quite enough of that kind of road
building in the past"
Maine has undergone no such ex-
perience. Our State has many miles
of highway and comparatively
sparse population. to say nothing OF
winters which severely test the con-
struction. all in all a formidable
problem. By and large, taken as q
whole, considered in the light of the
fact that much of our work was done
when road building was in more
experimental stage than it is now,
Maine has much to- be thankful for
in the way her highway improvement
has been conducted. Those respon-
sible for the policy which has pre-
vailed in our State highway depart
ment deserve credit. In their keep
ing the title of public servant" has
been kept untarnished.

ANOTHER EMINENT AUTHORITY

Anyhow. people generally must ad-
nit that Charles w. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard University, is
as highly esteemed as an authority
on prohibition as Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia Uni
versity.
When DR.. Eliot declares there is
evidence to prove the beneficial re-
suits already obtained from the
eighteenth amendment our own OBJ
servation bears him out. Sporadic
instances Of corruption, Of collision
with criminals, of here and there a
boatload of liquor being landed, do
not warrant DR.. Buffers conclusions,
but the fact they are so few as to at
tract notice and much comment sup
ports DR.. Eliot's.
Neither the Republican nor the
Democratic party will venture to put
a wet plank into its party platform
is a prediction We have no doubt will
be verified. whatever the Doctor
Buffers may think about It.

NO MOISTURE DEFICIENCY

Before this last heavy rain the crop
reporting service in New England
had found that the moisture de-
ficiency of last season had been
made up, so presumably there is now
a surplus, a fact testified to by the
brawling brooks and filled lowlands.

fluid milk prices 'are discouragingly
low" that low grade cows are a
drug on the market; that crop acre

in certain crops are expected. With
a few exceptions the past year was
favorable to potato growers and
