V WHAT'S THE ANSWER?

^The opponents of President Wilson P^jrffcfcr days ago started out to make a In.'" &

c&zppaign issue out of the charge that -J South is in control at the national ^ca^tal, that President Wilson is uainfluenced by southern interests even Judge Hughes fell into the ftl$ngand made the charge that through ttson's influence important senate ialrmanships were bestowed on the |u|hx in unreasonable proportion to i§ held in the north. This was such *|pable straining at a gnat that it ittention in but few quarters, jd then something happened, ^ejsident Wilson believes in the tj tp nervation of American children. He

in the minds of some senators. Anyway, it's an enlightening list". President Wilson's victory for the American child is about to be consummated. Read this over twice and then try to retain the conviction that there ls any trufh in the charge that southern, influences are in the saddle in Washington.! No vote was ever more opportune.

THE JUDGE'S DILEMMA.

One of the correspondents on Judge Hughes' special train explains that the seeming antipathy of the judge's audiences is due to the fact that he "hasn't struck pay dirt" He says that the judge finds it difficult to sound a vein of public enthusiasm In his line of argument.

The juUge dilates for hours on the false prosperity of the country and the impotency of the present administration when at the same time railroad managers are pleading with shippers to do what they can to release empty cars as soon as they can to meet a trafflo rtlsh unprecedented In the history of the country.

How many freight cars are now idle in the United States? Not one. For ery sidetrack leading to every seaport terminal in the United States, and every sidetrack leading to every, seaport has been gorged with freight cars for fifty miles distant awaiting their' turn to unload goods produced on American farms and in American mines, mills and factories for both home and foreign trade. Under the'tremendous volume of business done under the Underwood bill transportation systems on land and on water have completely broken down railways are unable to handle the freight and passenger traffic two bills are on thl calendar awaiting their turn to be enacted into laws to study the railway transportation traffic with a view of facilitating both internal and external commerce. How many idle men are there in the United States today? In every city on every bill board, almost at,every street crossing, are all kinds Of signs and ads, "All kinds of men wanted

The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end.

Every man and woman in the United States who wantfe to work has a1 job with the best wages ever paid, with full dinner pails, working shorter hours, in better sanitary conditions than were ever known in the history of the American government under the highest protective tariff ever passed by congress. For months every big daily paper in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and all the other cities carry the following ads: "Five thousand carpfenters

/^ASTORIA lias met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharmaceutioal societies and medical authorities It is used by physicians with ffesnlts most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts? The indisputable evidence that it is harmless:

It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic ^aaid does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's

The anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania are calling them the bituminous coal fields of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky are caling them the wheat fields of Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakot.as, .Minnesota, Illinois and Indiana are sending up the same signals of distress, calling for laborers on the farms at the rates of $3 per day and board.

So the judge's audiences listen politely but refuse to scare over the news that the wolf's at the door. The judge will have to delete his panic speeches or he won't be taken seriously.

ASK MA SHE KNOWS.

The fiftieth anniversary of modern chewing gum came this summer. Gum may have been chewed before 1866. No doubt it was, more especially spruce gum either sweetened and moulded, or in the native state, but the present gum of commerce, the chicle gum, dates back to that yeaF. At about the same time paraffin gum, or wax, had a period of popularity, but it quickly yielded to the new product.

According to an article in the New York Tribune, the native chicle, from Yucatan and southern Mexico, was brought to the United States by General Santa Anna, the Mexican soldier, statesman. It was Thomas Adams, Jr., who recognized the value of chicle as a chewing material. In company with his son and a capital of $30 he laid the foundation of a business that made his nape and fame known to millions of American households.

The Adams partners were proud of the fact that their working capital was $30. White could recall that his capital on one eventful occasion totaled but 30 cents. It "was an eventful occasion, because, with the expenditure of the money the tide turned in his favor. I

Nobody has computed how many' pounds of gtim have been chewed in, the fifty years, but here are a few

illuminating facts frdm the Tribune i

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chicago, Ills., says: "I have prescribed your Castoria often lor infants during my practice, and find it very satisfactory." Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Tour Castoria stands first In Its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place."

Dr. J. H, Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I hare used your Castoria.and

found it an excellent remedy in my household $nd private practice for many years. The formula Is excellent." Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria extensively, as I have never found anything to equal it for children's troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's."

Dr. Wp, MoOrann/of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen ehlldren I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside from my own family experience I have in my years of practice found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home."

Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria has made for Itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe It an excellent remedy."

Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria-in my practice because I have found it to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recommendation of Castoria."
