Entered at the postoflice In Decatur, Indiana, as second class matter. Tile last legislature reduced tlie tax levy for the general expenses of the. state 2 cents on each SIOO of valuation. That means $370,000 a year. As i ,f w eryone knows the cost of the state's benevolent and educational institutions lias increased and additional revenue for their maintenance was ] necessary. And a democratic legislature had the honest and the courage < to make the necessary provisions. It 1 may be that there is, here and there, 1 a republican paper that will object to , this, but the-editor of such a paper 1 must be very ignorant* benigitted and 1 inhumane. Notwithstanding the increasing con- , fusion in Mexico, President Wilson re < tains his confidence that the situation t will work itself out peacably*—at * least, as tar as tills country is con- ‘ V cerued. His determination, says a ( Washington dispatch, not to involve , this country in an armed confiict is unchanged. This is precisely what the country' expects of him, and un- < der the circumstances, is ‘undoubtedly < the best policy tiiat could be followed 1 Tile belief of the Imparciai, of the City of Mexico, that this country will not enter on such an insane adventure as war with Mexico, is well founded Perhaps "ridiculous" would be a bet ter descriptive word than ' insane.' The folly of Huerta can only be e s fectlvely cured by Mexico itself though the cure may have rather ser ous results for the present dictator Already he is practically cut off fron the world, and there are per.-isten rumors of defection in his own sac tions in tile City of Mexico. Now lit is beginning to talk of wlir.t to br done in case of intervention by the United States, but while such talk may be extremely interesting to him self and some of his friends, it will hardly be taaeu seriously by the thinking people of Mexico who have some understanding of existing conditions.—lndianapolis News.

It is now conceded by physicians that the kidneys should have more attention as they control the other or gans to a remarkable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in removing the poisons and waste matter from the system by filtering the blood. During the winter months especially, when we live an indoor life, the kidneys should receive some assistance when needed, as we take less exercise, drink less water and often eat more rich (heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble, such as lame back, annoying blaaaer troubles, smarting or burning, brick-dust or sediment, sallow complexion, rheumatism, may be weak or irregular heart action, stains you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more serious trouble. Many physicians claim that an herbal medicine containing no minerals or opiates has tlie most healing influence. An ideal herbal compound that has had moat remarkable success as a kidney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by parcels post. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Ginghamton, N. Y.. and enclose ten cents; also mention the Daily Democrat, Decatur, Iml. o — O. I. C. MALE HOGS. i have for sale 30 head of extra good O. 1.

•- - ~ ' ■ -IT MANY MONTHS AT SEA GOME REMARKABLY LONG VOYAGES ON RECORD. Recent Cruise of Italian Ship Brings to Mind Some Queer Passages on the Bounding Deep—Circled Gulf of Panama. """ The other day there was reported i an Italian, ship in the English channel j SDC days out from Astoria Bar, that hud been spoken by no other Bhip in ull that time. Within the experience of the deep-sea sailor such passages ure nothing unusual, particularly on the outward voyago to the Pacific, when Cape Horn was to be weathered and its prevailing westerly winds won through. On March 2, 1910, the four-masted bark luveraesshire sailed from 11am burg, bound for Santa Rosalia, in tin Gulf of California. During a passage i that included such incidents us lirr temporary abandonment by her crew in dread of her foundering she was forced to put intb Uie Falklands to re : fit, and sailed away again on her in- j t-errupted voyage on September 27. From that time she was neither seen nor beard of until she arrived safely at her destination on February 2, 1911, ' 338 days out from her original port of departure. The voyage of the Invernesshire almost compares with the performances of the lumbersoma craft of earlier navigators. On November 19, 1557, the Desire, under command ot ono Thomas Cavendish, a gentleman of Suffolk, England, set sail from the headlands of California for the English channel. At break of day on June 2 of the tob 1 lowing year she fell in sight cf the island of SL Helena; on July 3 she crossed the lire, and after holding the brave trade winds to the limit of [ 1 40 degrees north latitude, recovered the long-wished-for port of Portsmouth ! on September 7, 15S8. The sailing master of the Desire thought it worthy of record that, running merrily tmfore the wind under ] all the sail she could carry, his vessel compassed 140 miles between noon ! and noon, a boast that would expose the modern shipmaster to the derision I of his companions in every ship chan filers shop of the ports he frequented. Among some extraordinary voy- J ages made by deep sea sailing craft* within recent years, there may be mentioned that of the Beacon Rock, engaged on a short costal trip between two Australian ports. After all hope of her safe arrival bad been abandoned, she turned up at Ta’.ca- ' huano, Chile, somo 6,000 miles from 1 her intended destination. Being in light trim, and consequent- ! ly with no grip on the water, she had ' been unable to make any progress against a persistent head wind, and i her master had been compelled to I square yards and make a fair wind of it across the broad Pacific. Another large four-masted bark, the Buteshire, tad the remarkable experience last year of circling round the I windless Gulf of Panama like s ciri cub horse until she was obliged to put I back, 00 da, a out and short of provisions, to her port of departure _________ When the Red Cress Relieved. It is possible that none of the many j roue tries whoso representatives form the International F.ad Cross has broadj ened the work ester the manner cf the j American National Red Cross. From [ the organisation of thn body in 1881 j the late Miss Ciara Barton was president until her recent death and soon after her election began to urge that its sphere of usefulness, its mission of mercy might be broadened by giving i relief in all great calamities. This principle became cardinal with the body and the reports show that more than $2,000,000 has been spent for; such relief, the most notable instances j being the Michigan fires of iSsi; j Florida yellow fever, 1888; Johnstown , flood, 1889; Russian famine, 1891-2; | 3outh Ctrclina tidal wave, 1893; Ar-' j monian massacres, 1896; Spanish- | American war, 1838; Galveston tidal j j wave, 1900; Mont Pelee eruption,; | 1002. with many cth-r lesser energies j j making for tho relief of suffering. — Perfection In Men. | “Any sort of man is worth haring j except tho sort they call 'an Ideal bus. | band.* For perfection is a roost pernickety thing to live with. Give me a man with some lop-sidcdness about him. and not a sort of wallpaper-pat-tern person, all parted down the middle. and with both sides matching to ' a lialr. Give me a r. an that's fit to I drive a woman crazy with tho way he goes on; his coat aii rucked across the back, the tops of bis boots outI aide bit trousers, and bis wj it tenet j telling all the world that he* hah nn j egg for breakfast. That kind of a | man Is an refreshment to ! a woman. There a an unexpectedness ! about the poor, benighted thing that | keeps up her interest In him. He la j always to he continued In our r.cxt, so to speak, and you can generally , count on him to provide you with . some now excitement whenever things j threaten to get dull."—Punch and Judy, by Edwtn Pugh.
