They are going to flog their profiteers. Wallop them good and plenty in the very marts of trade where they skin their fellow men, It’s the law, ; Over here, also, we do things differently. W e don’t pass any laws that get to or under the hides of the prof- iteer, On the contrary, we enact laws that for circ umlo- cution and indirectness are models, Then Daugherty be- gins suit, congress orders an investigation, statesmen threaten, and—and the profiteers laugh and go on with their profiteering. Only can we lash them with our tongues, and that sort of punishment corrects no evil, We are patient and long-suffering, but, some day perhaps—we are going to have trade, and especially that portion of it that relates directly to physical existence, done on the level. We may not resort to the Bulgarian method, because we are sticklers for polite methods, but we may arry a big stick.” As goats we have served very nearly the limit of our time. Perhaps, 4 n.

Some girls wanting to marry should never go swimming, while others should go every day. Checkers is a fine game, The sitting still trains a person to wait for Street cars. Our favorite king is July the Great Advance in Killing Art The greatest inventor of small arms the world has pro- duced—a Mormon—has just developed a repeating can- non that will hustle two heavy missiles a second over a distance of seven miles. : The army now has several new war tanks. They weigh 40 tons each. Experimenting with them, officers sent them against a grove of trees in which 12-inch trunks were not infrequent. The tanks bowled the trees over as a threshing machine lays the grain. Great advances have been made by experts in the de- velopment of poison gases for battle use. Some of these, accurately applied, are capable of killing thousands in a few moments. Killers all. But those of us who really value human life and believe it is something to be enhanced and beau- tified rather than destroyed, find it difficult to enthuse over these developments. Compared with the awful pos- sibilities that in them lie, inferno at its worst is a pleas- ant picnic in congenial surroundings. The British Derby.

P. Heflin, of Birmingham, Ala., who recently sentenced three staff members of the Birming- ham Post to jail for “contempt of court” because they saw their duty “to arouse the people to the dangers that threaten the free institutions” of their city, Our guess at the Dempsey-Gibbons outcome is as good as any. We bet Christmas comes next winter, China {s having trouble with the Japanese, but not as much as she is having with the Chinese, Most of us had rather be the world’s champion runner than the world’s champion fighter. The presidential race, which will be held next year, is in full swing sight now. Unlocking the windows makes them easier to raise, Do We Want to Be Sick? Why are most of us more interested in cures than in prevention of diseases? Dr. Clifford Allbutt wants to know. Can it be possible that we nurse a subconscious hope of having the disease, as an experience, and being assured of recovering? Let the. medical profession announce a cure, and it is shouted from the housetops. But when they announce how to prevent the malady, how to dodge it entirely, in- terest is mild. That’s why campaigns for prevention of diseases usually fizzle.

Whooping cough is breaking out among the royalty of England, but we don't give a whoop. Chicago cops raided eight bucketshops because the buckets leaked, Sugar Gougers’ Little Joke Are you op to the sugar gougers’ little trick? It is the same one that has been played over and over again by big trusts. One of them will acquire a device which can be sold for 50 cents. The trust boosts the price to $1.50 and then magnanimously reduces it to 75 cents. The re- duction induces buying and the trust wins, It is the same trick when the sugar gamblers boost their sugar to 11 and 12 cents or perhaps 13 cents a pound, then slips it back to 11 10 cents. It is worth only 714 cents and that is all the housewives should be paying. Good news from Holland. Political graft being stamped out. Kee the Dutch from getting in Dutch.

Their parents were given it by their parents; the grandparents are using it today. It is the one lax- ative ideally suit- ed to all the fam- ily, safe for the little ones, effec- tive in grownups, so compounded that elderly people, who are con- stantly forced to take a laxative use the intestinal muscles are weakening, find increased dosage unnecessary, This wonder- ful constipation remedy has been used continuously for 30 years, and over 10 million bottles are now sold annually, the largest selling family laxative in the world! The cost averages but a cent a dose, Every druggist sells it, and under a guarantee to do as claimed or your moncy will be refunded.

J., declares that not only her- reif but all her neighbors and fricuds use it and tell others about it. There is scarcely a day that someone in a fanite does not need it for constipation, flatulency, auto-intoxication, biliousness, in- testinal poisoning, headaches, colic and cramps, and to break up fevers and colds. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is 4 scientifically-balanced — com- pound of Egyptian senna with pepsin and _ pleasant-tasting aromatics. The formula is on the package. As the popularity of this natural regerais laxative increases, the public discards the harsher physics like calomel, coal- tar in candy form, salt waters and waders.
