THE HEALTH OF WOMAN WAGE EARNERS.

Health is a social question and must be dealt with by goverment. The regulation of the scale of wages of women by the state is a step toward the preservation of the health of the worker. Those who insist on trying to bolster up the morals of the vast army of workin gwomen, must first turn their attention to the physical welfare of these women. Mary Ann must have before her the idea of pure womanhood, but Mary Ann must eat and be warm and have a roof over her head in order to protect that womanhood. Nor must she become a mother who is a beast of burden, a weary, bedraggled servant of a parasitic trade. Two children out of every four or five die before the age of five years. If the mother can be given a little more comfort and a very little more leisure,, we should not find it necessary to raise the cry of race suicide in the streets.—From "Woman and the Wage Question," by Jeanne Robert, in the American Review of Reviews for April.

SHOW KEEN INTEREST IN THE CONVENTION

By Rebublieans Friday To Elect Delegates to the District, State and Senatorial Conventions

Few Republican township conventions in Hancock county have awakened so much interest as did the conventions to select delegates to the district, state and senatorial conventions in this county, Friday. Ten delegates were to be selected to the state convention where they will vote for four delegates-at large to the Republican National Convention, and ten delegates to the district convention where they will vote for two district delegates to the National Contention, and ten delegates to the Joint Senatorial convention.

The conventions were all well attended and much interest was manifested. As a result. 8 delegates were selected for Roosevelt and two for Taft. The delegation in the Senatorial contest is equally divided between Walter G. Bridges and Chauncey W. Duncan. Center township convention was the largest ever held by Republicans in the township. The Roosevelt men outnumbered the Taft men more than two to one. The contests for votes were animated but friendly.

The latest news gives Roosevelt all the delegates from the county, except one state delegate from Sugar Creek and one district delegate from Green. Still there are rumors afloat that these figures are not correct. Center, Blue River Brandywine and Buck Creek delegates to the Senatorial convention are for Bridges and Brown, Green. Jackson, Sugar Creek and Vernon are for Duncan.

Bonano Needs NO Defense

Thousands of people excuse their use of coffee by saying. I don't think Coffee does me any harm." Did you ever hear a coffee user say, "I know coffee does me good."

Thousands of physicians are advising against the use of coffee, chocolate, cocoa and tea. Do you know any'physicians whoare recommendind their use?

If you use any of these table drinks once or three times a day—seven days a week for fifty-two weeks in the year, it is of vital importance that you know.

Coffee and these other table drinks contain caffeine, tannin and other elements that are positively injurious—then, can their use be beneficial?

You can get nothing more out of coffee, cocoa and than the injurious drug they contain. Why defend coffee—why excuse its use—why fool yourself?

You may know and measure the injurious effects of coffee, tea, chocolate and cocoa by discontinuing their use a short time and comparing the state of your health with what it was previously.

You may know and appreciate the benefits of BONANO by a reasonable trial. BONANO is a pure fruit product—it contains no caffeine, tannin or anything harmful, and it does contain real food value that is easily and quickly digested.

The free, continuous and exclusive use of BONANO by anyone needs no excuse or defense. Thousands of BONANO users are writing us of the positive and specific benefit and good it is to them.

Aa Ohio customer writes: "Enclosed find a check for $1.50 for the six cans you sent us. My stomach was in very bad shape. I received a sample of your BO

NANO and tried it now have used about twenty-five cans of it. Now can eat most anything. We have recommended it to quite a few who are now using it." The use of BONANO works a double benefit—it replaces something positively injurious with something positively beneficial.

BONANO is not good merely because coffee and other table drinks are injurious—it stands on its own merits. BONANO is not a flavor, it's a substance—it's not a substitute, it's a distinctive table drink.

A 75-cup can of BONANO costs only 25 cents (that's economyIt's easy to make—boil one minute. Order of your grocer today or, if he cannot supply you, send us 25 cents in stamps and we will send you prepaid a full-size can and a few samples free to be distributed amoug your friends.

Drink BONANO and you won't noed tc make excuses to yourself.
