KVER since we bought "The Star Spangled Banner" for the Victrola the missus insists on playing it almost continuously, which means that we have to be getting up constantly, ceasing all work and standing at attention un'.;l the National anthem has ceased.

"WORLD'S Greatest Newspaper" is improving in its artistic tste. as was evidenced Sunday when it gave each end every one of its readers a print of the Hon. Charley Chaplin.

MEMORIAL, DAY TILTS YEAR AND NEXT. V Now you see them pass by, young, reliant, merry. Some are already m uniform, thousands will be before long-

Yet many who are here today will not be here next May- Fresh graves

will claim them somewhere in France, by Ypres. in the sands below

Cairo, or near Araby; mayhap along the Russian frontier or wherever men of humanity fight the viper of Prussianism young Americans will sleep. Some day their bones may be tenderly brought back here, but many will

never be returned from foreign lands. Perhaps it may be you or yours for whom the tears 'a year from now will be shed. Who can tell?

If ever there was a day that calls attention to the meaning of the mor

row and what grim things the future holds, it is this Memorial day. Cherish it tomorrow, for you know not what the next cne may mean to you-

On April 10 a laughing Hammond lad only IS years old marched

proudly with the recruits to the Fort Wayne depot to go "Somewhere East Tomorrow they will take his body and lay it in a soldier's grave.

And there is that gallant little band of the Grand Army of the Re

public for whom the day was first commemorated. One by one they are

answering the last call. They grow fewer and fewer in number. The day

won't be long in coming when they will be all gone, so observe the day on

that account if for nothing else.

Then the whispering leaves sigh over the graves of others who have

gone. Up Above during the year, sustained and soothed by an unfaltering

trust and in bygone years let all the beloved dead ,vhose last resting places

dot the greensward in countless grave-yards, let them be remembered. We know not who is to be the next!

GIVE. ITS SOMETHING NEW.

Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago mail order magnate, says that criticism of alleged usurpation of power by the National Defense Council is due to the action of that body in "eliminating the middleman" in making purchases of government supplies, although the criticism really was of the policy of letting contracts without taking bids. Julius of course had to hang an ulterior motive on the critics. He is pulling. sor.e old stuff that may serve all right in the mail order business, but doesn't apply in the present instance. It has never been the habit of the government to huy war supplies through middlemen- Such supplies have always been purchased of the producers or their direct representativesIt was announced the other day that, a purchase of six hundred thousand pairs of shoes had been made in St. Louis from the manufacturer for three million dollars, or five dollars a pair. The middlemen are selling a good man's shoe for that amount one pair at a time. Maybe the services of a few middlemen would help the National Defense Council some. Muncie Press-

PATRIOTISM covers a multitude of sins. While some of our most prominent trusts are each loyally shaking the hand of the Allies with their

right hand they are picking said beloved Allies' pockets with their left hand by charging 'em three and four prices for munitions and materials.

EXPERT SOLDIERS. A magazine article tells us that Napoleon to the end of his days never knew anything of minor military tactics, and many of his marshals were of that class- It further says, nearly all the great strategists have been, not professional soldiers, but politicians or scholars, with a taste for military affairs. That hardly holds good in this country, for all the generals who reached great distinction on either side in our Civil war were West Point graduates Grant, Lee, Sherman. Jackson, Sheridan, Meade, Johnston, Polk, Thomas. There were some West Pointers who were failures In both armies, which shows that while expert ism may be desirable, it is not always reliable. Special knowledge or skill never takes the lead of the yal man himself. Ohio State Journal.

NOT much difference Zepps over there; cyclones here.

KAISER is the most prominent opponent of the Liberty Bonds.

PEACE may be in sight. Pacifists engage in riot at Chicago.

"THE Post opposed the Roosevelt move from the first." Gary Post. This explains the mystery of why congress decided not to let the Colonel go to France-

WHILE the English may not pay as much attention to King George as tbey used to, the London papers continue to respectfully refer to the president as Dr. Wnson.

SOME of our best clothing manufacturers are not only encouraging, but are pleaching economy, as it is to be seen, for instance, that you get less wool in your suit now although you pay "510 more for it.

EXCHANGE says $200,000,000 of American gold is going to China every year. Well, no wonder the most of us are broke two days before pay day comes-

MR. SAMUEL GOMPERS has announced that plutocrats should give up

Mrs. W. B. Cassel of 2CS X. Emerick St., South Bend, Ind., says: "Twice in an interval of six years I had spells of inflammation. A neighbor who had received great help from Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription advised me to try it for tiiy ailment, and the fourth dose of 'Favorite Prescription' relieved me of every one of my distressing symptoms, and I was restored to even a better general condition than I had been before. I can't say enough in praise of this medicine. I gladly send this testimonial to be published anywhere."

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has

been a favorite with women for nearly

fifty years because it contains no alco

hol or any narcotic. It is put up in both liquid and tablets and is to b j found in any drug store. If . you will send Dr. Pierce. Buffalo, N. T., 10 cents, in stamps or silver, ho will mail you a triol package of Favorite Prescription Tablets. ! Mrs. Christena Kirkdorffcr. who re-1 sides at 219 S. 10th St.. Goshen. Ind.,; says: "Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-j

tion has given me such great relief that;

I am glad to tell of it so that other women who suffer may know what will help them. I was all run-down in health, became very weak and nervous and could pot eat nor sleep. Nothing se.;tned to do me any good until I begn taking Dr. Pjerce's Favorite Prescription and Golden Medical Discovery. They proved to be just what I needed, as they soon built me up and I could eat and eleep well. And just a few years ago, when I was going through middle age I took the 'Favorite Tre-

scription" and it brought me through the critical period in the best of health." Mrs. Emma Chandonla of 723 E. Washington Blvd., South Bend, Ind.. says: "As a purgative and cure for sluggish liver I think Dr. Tierce's Pleasant Pellets are Just fine. It is quite a few years since I had occasion to need them, but I feel that it is on their account that my liver is in such good condition today. I would advise any one troubled with constipation and sluggish liver to give the 'Flcasant Tellets' a trial." Pleasant Pellets for stomach, liver and bowels, are made up of the Mayapple, aloe leaves and jalap. This wellknown pellet was made up nearly fifty years ago by Dr. Pierce, and can be had for & quarter from atiost any apothecary simply ask for Dr. Pierce's Fleasant Pellets. Adv.
