The abilty to believe is higher in some men than in others, but man never rose very high who did not believe in something with all his might Call it crankyism or what you will. "Swat the fly" is a paragraph started by Dr. Hurty which has become popular all over this nation, and it is being done by hundreds who realize the danger of allowing these diseasebreeding carriers to multiply. This city is not the only one, in which there seems to be a very serious division of opinion as to the liquor • question. In a fourth of the counties of the state, the same problem is being fought out and with just as much vim and just as much bad feeling as is exhibited here. Unless old Jack Frost gets in his work soon, Adams county will show' you a crop of fruit and grain that will | surpass the famous records of this 10-' cality in the past. The outlook just now is bright Indeed, and that means business and lots of it, and prosperity ' for everyone about here next fall, except the fellow who doesn't want to hustle.

The Kansas City Star, In discussing the new tariff bill, says: “In this bill the advantage is on the side of the people, wnereas before it always has been on the side of the privileged manufacturers. In the past the protected interests have controlled legislation and the people have come, bat in hand, and asked for the chance to put a few duties down just a triflle. At last, for the first time in half a century, the people are in control. Now they insist on reducing the tariff. The people are going to reverse the process. They are going to get the duties down to approximately where they belong. Then the interest affected may be permitted to come before the court of a tariff commission and ask for reasonable adjustments. The general welfare has given way to the special interests long enough. Now the public is to be given the first consideration. Any mistakes that are made must be given in favor of the public. The nation is tired of having a few adjustments made in favor of the people from a general high level of duties. The. use ot a tariff commission will be to make the few adjustments in favor of the special interest from a generally low level of duties.” !

Parisian Sage, the scientific and ideal hair rejuvenator and tonic, will cause hair to grow. It will turn harsh, withered hair into dustrous and hewitchtagly luxuriant hair in a few days.
