SCIENCE AND SANITATION Science Has Discovered that Nearly all Ills of Childhood Can be Prevented Those who have made the study of diseases their life’s work, have learned that most diseases are produced by germs; which enter the body through the mouth and nose. If the mucous membrane, which line the mouth, nose and throat are not kept clean and sanitary, the germs which lodge there, will develop and multiply and produce disease according to their kind. The only way to combat these germs is to thoroughly Cleanse the mucous membrane daily. There is nothing better for this purpose than Glands Gargle. It is a safe and sane antiseptic prepared especially for this purpose. It is fine for a cold in the head, catarrh, sore throat, sore mouth and in fact any disease that effect the delicate membrane of the mouth, nose or throat. It is an excellent preventative for adenoids and a splendid teething lotion. ~ R F. Fandig.

ALL CLASSES HIT WHEN RAILROAD PROFITS DECLINE
Industry Feels Most Keenlj Effect of Railroad Poverty. UNWISE LAWS MAKE TROUBLE ' - Millions of Dollars Lott by Railroads In Meeting Mazo of Legislative Requirement*—Lswa Contradict Each Other. “A man la as old as bls arteries," says a prominent health authority. With equal truth It may be said that a country la as prosperous as its railroads. for Industry Is the life of a country, and the railroads bear the same vital relation to the Industrial system that the big blood carrying tubes bear to the human body There was a time In the history of industry when manufacturing was a one man affair, when every laborer owned his own tools and made goods for his neighbors. That system passed away with the invention of the steam engine, and no sane man today would wish for its return. The modern highly developed industrial organism depends absolutely on the facilities for distribution provided by the railroads.
But how have the railroads been rewarded for making possible tlie evolution of industry ? in recent years they have been made the subject for all sorts of legal vivisection. They have been chloroformed and cut open, and, us usual in such cases, the surgeons have differed as to the nature of the malady and the necessary cure. The prevailing theory, however, was that the railroads were suffering from an abnormal growth of the Income, so their income had to be amputated. From a professional point of view the operation was eminently successful, but in a number of cases the patient died. Recent mortality statistics show a total of 34,652 miles of steam railroad in the hands of receivers, the roads Involved having a total capitalization of $1,790,488,210.
One Roa ' Spend: $19,000,000. The avalanche of adverse laws directed against railroads has been so overwhelming that since 1906 the Pennsylvania railroad on Its lines east of Pittsburgh alone has spent $19,000,000 complying with the legislative enactments. Approximately that sum is equal to 6 per cent income on $300,000,000Interstate railroads are exposed to contradictory laws enacted by the legislatures of the states through which they run. About nineteen states are trying to regulate the Issuance of railroad securities by different methods Twenty-eight states specify headlight requirements without any co-operation with one another. Fourteen states have different safety appliance acta. Sometimes the orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission, so far as they concern intrastate matters, are prac tlcally nullified by the failure of the states to approve them. It is estimated that the railroads of the country are required to make over 2.000,003 reports a year to various state or federal authorities.
Of course the railroads do not bear the burden of this legal yoke alone. It rests as heavily on the shoulders of the 1.500.000 or more owners of American railway securities, many of whom it re women dependent for support upon the Income from these securities. Insurance companies, representing 30.000.000 policy holders, have $1,500,000,000 Invested in railway securities, and savings banks, representing 11,000,000 depositors, have $800,000,000 invested in railroad stocks and bonds. Wealth of Roads Benefits Many. According to the statistics of railways in the United States Issued tn 1914. the railroads then employed 1.710.296 persons. to whom they paid approximately $1,381,117,292 per year tn wages and salaries The expenditure of that sum is certainly a substantial contribution to the income of all mercantile and manufacturing enterprises. But. while the railroad situation claims the atten s tion of all classes of citizens. It must appeal to the industrial worker in bread and butter terms. f&rTie is the first to. feel the effects of railroad Im poverisbment This was evidenced in 1914 and 1915, when the railroad situation was most acute and when thousands of men were out of work and the Industries of the country were in a serious condition. ■___ How can the industrial worker help to put the railroads on a sounder worklug basis? By Joining tn a general pro test against the legislative avalanche, bv voting against the legislator who Is Instrumental in the passage of tbednir densome and taxations laws that re dace railroad profits and the income on railroad securities. It is vitally necessary that these securities should he tmide more attractive to the investing public so that the railroads can increase their credit and obtain enough money to make Improvements and in crease their equipment. Sound Credit Essential. . ••Railroad regulation must encourage sound credit or regulation is a failure.'' says A. J County, vice president of the Pennsylvania railroad. “Sound credit is jnat as essential In the railroad trasineea as in mercantile affairs and a railroad cannot have sound credit without the earning power to produce a credit Induttrial Co*lervation, Fete Ter*.
T. J. Sayler Writes From Lamar, Colorado.
In renewing his subscription to The Republican, T. J. Sayler, a former Jasper county resident, writes a letter which may prove of interest to his former friends. Mr. Sayler is now the head of the Sayler Construction Company, whose’ specialty is cleaning and enlarging irrigation ditches. , . Mr. Sayler states that Lamar is one of the first towns in that locality to furnish a full company of boys and that the women of that section are busily engaged in doing what they can to prepare articles to be used by the boys during service. The crops in that section, according to his report, are doing splendidly and prices are out of sight. He with his two sons, Frank and Jay, have 600 acres of irrigated land, all in alfalfa, sugar beets, corn and wheat. The land will return S6O to the acre. His hay land is cutting from three to four tons per acre and the hay is a ready sale at S2O a ton. Jay Sayler is the cashier of the Two Buttes Jjank and is doing nicely. Mr. Sayler closes by hoping that the United States will crush the Kaiser in the very near future.

LAXATIVESDON’T CURE TO CURE CONSTIPATION AND LIVER TROUBLE, THE CAUSE MUST BE REMOVED Qlando, The Great Gland Tonic, v which is a Three-In-One Treatment, acts upon the glands, which control the three important digestive organs. Either one~oFthese three treatments would relieve, but neither one alone will cure. , Constipation is not a disease, it is a condition brought about by the inactivity, of the glands. When the liver, which is the largest and most important gland becomes sluggish, the digestion is retarded. The small glands of the stomach and bowels are impaired so the digestive fluids are not properly secreted. The waste matter is retained in the body and the system poisoned. The common symptoms of this poisoning are headache, tired or achy feeling, nervousness, dizziness, indigestion, billiousness and a sallow or splotchy ! complexion.:±z~ All three treatments only 50c Glando Tonic is prepared by the Gland-Aid C0..-Ft7~Wayne, Ind»<- - B.
