Failure Seen “The wholo system of American government rests on the ballot box," he said to the women who are here from every section of the country for their annual congress. “Unless citizens perform their duties there, such a system of government is doomed to failure.’’ “If we aro to keep our representative form of government and to maintain the principle that the majority shall rule, it behooves us to take some drastic action to arouse tho voters of this country to a greater interest in their civic duties on election day.” The Remedy The President said that the mos| practical remedy “is for all bodies of men and women interested in the ■welfare of this country to join together under some efficient form of organization to correct this evil which lias been coming on us for more than forty years, but which within the last decade has become most acute.” Hemorrhoids Disappear TTo Cutting or Salves Needed to Banish Piles External treatments seldom cure Idles.

The most spirited contest is between Watson and Claris Adams, Indianapolis attorney, an “out.” Watson's managers contend the drum fire attack which Adams has concentrated against the senior Senator lias had little effect, but Bert Morgan, Adams' manager, says Adams will ride a tidal wave of farmer and labor votes to the nomination. In Northern Indiana Adams is in northern Indiana this week, while Senator Watson is expected to return to Indiana Saturday to remain until the primary election. Arch G. Graham, South Bend attorney, is developing much strength in northern Indiana in his race against Robinson, while the speeches of Oswald Ryan of Anderson, another candidate, are said to be creating a favorable impression for him. Advocating a wet platform, Ward B. Miner recently has developed a large following. The congressional prohibition bearings have aided him, and iiis strenuous campaign from a specially constructed bus has aroused unusual interest. However, Robinson -has expressed confidence in his siaifWng with the voters following an extensive speaking tour. He returned to Washington during the week-end, but was expected to leave, this evening for Pickrington, Ohio, where his mother is seriously ill. He will come to Indiana this week-end, if possible, to remain until the election. Busy Campaigners The long-term Democratic senatorial candidates, numbering six, are

Caldwell, of Monticello, 111., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many constipated infants and children had to be kept constantly “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all children's little iils, he did not believe that sickening ‘'purge -- or "physic” was necessary. In Ur.
