medicine that has given surprising
relief in thousands of cases of
stomach, liver, kidney and bowel
disorders and rheumatic and neu-
ritis troubles. Just a few days ago
Mrs. Prudie Bond, well-known local
lady, living at IS South Grace st,
Indianapolis, made the following re-
markable statement about the bene-
fits derived from the use Of this
Konjola compound.
i've certainly enjoyed wonderful
health since I started taking Kon-
jola, and I cannot help but praise
this medicine" said Mrs. Bond. Il
had such miserable stomach trouble
that everything 1 ate disagreed with
me, and after meals would become
so bloated and swollen that |
would nearly choke from the gas
which formed in my system. I'd get
short of breath, and my heart would
f1utter, and I had such pains in the
pit of my stomach and around my
heart that it felt like a knife stick
ing me. I wouldn't dare eat pickles
or any acid food, but no matter what
I ate, it would only form a hard
lump in my stomach, cause terrible
indigestion and suffering of the
worst kind.
MY nerves were on edge all the
time, so that 1 became excited even
when some one mentioned my name
unexpectedly, and many times I
would become melancholy and de-
spondent and just cry like a. child.
At nights I would walk the floor for
hours, because of restlessness AMI
the awful stomach suffering. Some
times I would have to apply hot ap-
plications to relieve the pains in my
stomach. I was also troubled with
constipation, liver was torpid and in
active so that dizzy spells would
come over me, and black spots ap-
peared before my eyes, and I'd have
to hold on to something to keep
from falling. 1 always had to use
laxatives daily, and I really had
come to the place where my health
was a complete wreck before 1
started taking Konjola.
II used lots of remedies and had
special medical attention for three
years before 1 heard about Konjola,
but now since I've taken your medi-
cine I know it is just what my
broken-down system had always
needed I can safely say my stomach
miseries are really ended now, for
everything I eat agrees with me,
even sour things, because 1 drank
two lemonades and never suffered
one bit. All the heart pains and
fluttering are gone, and the gas,
bloating and indigestion never
bother me. 1 don't become short of
breath, and I can sleep fine at
nights. My nerves are settled, AMI
the constipation and headaches are
relieved, also the dizzy spells and
black spots do not come any more.
My whole system is improved in
\ generel, and I have lot more
energy and strength.
II don't remember when I ever
felt better in my life than I do since
I got Konjola, and so 1t is a pleas.

Cave Men Boss
Here's a rough draft of his process
of reasoning:
In the early savagebarbarian per
iod OF the human race the cave man
was the boss and the descendants Of
Eve his slaves. Might made right
among men themselves and the weak
never got a look-in.
Later on an equalizing influence
was invented that was called jus

1t was discovered that laws could
be put into force that would give the
weakling a show for his white ally
and enable him to get by in spite
of his weakness and live on the same
earth with the strong.
AS the weak multiplied and re
plenished the earth with their kind
they made more and more laws tc
weaken the strong and strengthen
the weak. Equality became a popu

Strong Are Tanned
A whole lot happened during the
centuries that this equalizing pro

down to the present day when we
find that the weak have actually In

In attempting to prove his theory
this amateur biologist claims that

most preachers are more feminine
than masculine both mentally and

they exert q powerful influence in

Evangelism is the supreme duty
Of the Christian preacher, but it has
four defects that have deservedly
brought 1t into disrepute. Its mes
sage has been associated. with
negative ethic. There have been
flaming denunciations of current
vices: and these have worked for
righteousness: but there have also
been often as uncompromising at
tacks upon the popular forms of
amusement. which in themselves are
not misunderstanding. the stage, vari-
Gus sports-with a consequent mora !
confusion. And denunciations of evil
have been commoner than proclama
tions of the more excellent way. The
impression gets abroad that an
earnest Christian is to be known by
what he does not do.
Again its message is far too often
tied up with an obsolete theology.
Allowance must be made for even
gelists who have been so engrossed
in bringing sinners to Christ by the
Gospel in its traditional form that
they have had neither time nor in
clination to readapt its presentation
in the light of more recent scholar

There are certain old shioned Tory Eng
lishmen who see in this independent attitude
of dominion governments the beginning of
the breakup of the British empire. They are
deeply anxious lest it should lead TO political
hostilities within the family Of nations and
divided action in times OF vital and desperate
need That is not the opinion of liberal
minded and progressive politicians. who
recognize fully the absolute justice Of great
dominons claiming independent judgment on
problems involving their own life and des-
tiny.
Regarding that Locarno pact it is believed
in England that dominion premiers will be
convinced that 1t is 4 great safeguard against
European war. especially now that France
and Germany are drawing closer together,
owing to common economic interests. and
that it should be backed by undivided allie
glance Of the whole empire In any case, at
this period of the worlds history there can
he no dictaton or coercion of dominions by
English statesmen. The British empire de

any dangerous weakening of those funda

any breakaway from old loyalties.

English public opinion is awaiting this i'm

an ardent devotion to Christ.
A third and closely allied defect
in recent evancelstic preaching has
been the vagueness of its goal. Men
have been piled with pleas to
accept Christ without being told

derstood it to involve eschewinE

7 ONDON-The British Imperial Confer
ence. which will begin in London Octo
Der II. will be far-reaching in impor-
lance, raising many delicate and diff
cult problems between Great Britain and
the Doninions. The first of the Dominion
premiers to arrive will be Mr. Bruce of Aus
tralia. Gen. Hertzog of South Africa, who at
times has been distinctly hostile to British
influence. will be in England this week. 1t
is now decided that Mr.. Mackenzie King,
new Canadian premier, will attend the CON
terence, owing to the promise Of the Con
Servatlve party to expedite essential business
without political obstruction.
Among the many subjects Of imperial dis
cuSsiOn there is one of outstanding interest.
1t is the consent refusal Of these overseas
Domlnions regarding Englands foreign pol
ICY and commitments in Europe. 1t has been
made very clear by Canada. especially after
their great sacrifice in the last war. that
Canadians are totally opposed to giving Eng
hsh statesmen carte blanche to tie up the
whole empire by treaties and dip omatic un-
derstandings which one day may lead to an
other international conflict calling for i'm
periaI assistance IN man power and supplies.
II was with cold and emphatic disapproval
that Canada turned down Winston Churchill
and Lloyd George when they tried to raise
herv cross for war with Turkev after the
tragedy of Smyrna.
Later there was no enthusiasm bv the

which they believed would burden them with
responsibilities in the event of European con
1iCts.
Now they are faced with the pact Of Lo-

ont their formal approval or consent. That
pact does undoubtedly make the United King.

Germany. If war were to break out between
those two nations in spite Of their pledges

decide, or TO abide by decision of the World
Court, as to which country was the aegres-
Sor and to throw all the weight against that
enemy OF peace. In that case would Canada.
Australia. New Zealand and other Domnons,
including Ireland. refuse to move with the
mother country? Would thew maintain
friendly relations and commercial intercourse
with declared enemy Of Great Britain? IF
So and IT is unthinkable to English minds,
there would he an end to the British empire
and its imperial loyalties. 1t raises a most
dangerous problem and one which cannot be
