SHAKING OFF THE SHACKLES. Tlie wisdom of sitting tight and permitting the people to do their own thinking instead of trying to make them let politicians do their thinking for them. Is seer, in the results of the Maine election. At its biennial election yesterday, Maine went triumphantly and overwhelmingly republican. The trend throughcut the whole state was unmistakeably republican. Counties that had always been democratic strongholds went decisively republican and there la no doubt today where Maine stands. The fight was on the league of nations and the voters, particularly the women, showed what they think cf Mrs. George Bass' statement that she never met a woman who wasn't for the league of nations. It is estimated that SO per cent of the wompn who voted in Maine voted the republican ticket and the ticket was against the league. The nation Is beginning to be heard from in a substantial way as to what it thinks of the Wllscn administration and the league. Gov. Cox made the biggest mistake of his life when he lined up with Wilson and the league for both or either will defeat him in November. Maine proved too. what the voters think cf Cox outrageous statement that the republican party 1b buying the presidency. The people are revolting. They are throwing off the democratic shackles, and they are going to clean hcuse at Washington. Maine, the barometer state has spoken.

With so many precicus plums to be passed, it is small wonder that certain panting patriots are anxious fr this country to "go in." says the Fort Wayne Sews, as Candidate Cox and 'resident Wilson urge us to do.

ON COMING BACK. The little boy wiio kept hitting bis head with a hammer explained on inquiry that be did it because he felt so good when he stopped. The little boy had the true philceophy of a vacationist. About once a year we get a yearning to go away from wherever we are, to be different, to get out of our chosen path of life; and after much preparation and worry about where and how and when to go, we make the break and are gene.. And we are only away a little while when we begin to get restless; we have a new yearning, this time to get back, back to the comfortable routine of the years, back to the cozy bed with just the right size pillow, back to the easy chair cf the front porch, back to the little nook in the scheme cf things as they are; away from the half cooked yet burnt food of the woods, away from the mosqultos of the summer cottage, away from the knock-kneed nudity cf the beaches! We have a feeling away down in the deep dim recesses of our soul that it's not the going away that helps; it's the coming back.

v G. 0. P. FOE FEEE TOLLS Did you ever notice that whenever President Wilson has mixed us up la internationalism we have had the worst of it? Take the Panama canal. This greatest of all engineering feats was started by Roosevelt, a republican, and completed by Goethals under Taft, a republican. The cost was fixed at $34S,000,000. and It was completed for that figure; no extras, no graft, no scandal. The people of the United States built the Panama canal 'and provided that American ships should pass through free. Why not? Cut President Wilson forced a bill through congress abolishing free tolls. He told us that this would cheapen transportation. .... , The republican platform calls fcr the return ot free tolls.

A GRIP OF STEEL Few people comprehend the grip held by the Federal Reserve Board on the business activity of the nation. Through its control of credits the board cculd precipitate a panic at any moment that would bring utter ruin to thousands of banks and destruction to industry. Compared with the autocratic pewer possessed by the board the roundly-denounced money barons of Wall Street in their palmiest days held but a

fraction of Its menace to the public welfare. There is no doubt that much collateral held by banks as security for leans made during the period of Inflated values has depreciated below the amount of the loans themselves, but the obligations of those bank3 to the Federal Re--serve Board are as great as ever, and should they be suddenly called by the Reserve Board it would be Impossible in many cases to meet them. Like many other pieces of democratic legislation, the Federal Reserve Act vests too much discretion in federal cfficlals, and when those officials happen to be democratic politicians, the beneflcient influences of the law are largely negatived. With adequate amendment to correct that defect the Federal Reserve Act would be vastly Improved, and another step would be taken toward a return to a government of law and not of men.

MEXICANS COMPLAIN that the Rio Grande chipped off a piece of Mexico and moved It across Into the United States. That It brought the Mexican population along is the unfortunate feature for us.

THE JUGO-SLAVS have made it clear that l'Annunzio has used bis poetic license Just as long as they are going to stand for It.

ANOTHER of the sad facts Is that no MAX in a bathing suit ever looks' tny more LIKE the life guard on the front cover OF the current number of ar.y given magazine THAN a rabbit if as much. EVEN the most casual knowledge OF anatomy will show that old Dame XATVRE gave moat men . CONSIDERABLY more lungs THA brains. IF we had not been christened AND strictly reared in the Church of England WE might lament the fact THAT the apple pies don't seem to have the BRACING tang they had before the country went dry. ONE eminent expert announces. THAT a handsome face is of no more avail THAN a rabbit unless it is accompanied BY beauty of throat and neck. AND we guess we might as well make VP our mind, If we have any, TO go In for jrure intellectuality. THE failures In marriage WOVLD not be so, noticeable IF the persons Involved WERE not so noisy about it. THERE is one distinct difference BETWEEN charity and reform.

A Woman Is As Old As She Looks

No woman wants to look old. Many in their effort to look youthful reeort to the "beauty doctor." Their mistake is that they visit the wrong department in the drug store. Beauty depends upon health. Worry, sleepless nights, headaches, pains, disorders, irregularities and weakness of a distinctly feminine character in a short time bring the dull eye, the "crow'3 feet," the haggard look, drooping shoulders, and the

faltering Btep. To retain the appearance of youth you must retain health. Instead of lotions, powders and paints, ask your druggist for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. This famous medicine strikes at the very root of these enemies of your youthful appearance. It makes you not only look younger but feel younger. It overcomes the weakness and builds you up. Your druggist can supply you with liquid or tablets ; or send ten one-cent stamps to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., and a trial pkg. of the tablets will be mailed to you. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has been in use 50 years. If you wish to know all about yourself, drop a line to Dr. Pierce for free pamphlet on Diseases of Women. Should you desire to consult his medical staff of physicians or ask for information, the same will be cheerfully furnished you wholly without cost and your letter will be treated as sacredly confidential-
