WE ARE ALL FRAUDS

We Go with People We Don't Care Anything About and Spend Our Time Doing Things We Hate Because We're Afraid to Be Natural.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Why are automobile pages? . ; Or sections, for that matter. In the Sunday papers and otherwhere? Pages and pages and pages of automobile specials and feature stuff and personal items and "what not?" More especially pictures of celebrated gentlemen who have just taken positions with somebody else after having been stellar attractions with Buncome & Company since the beginning of automobile time. Somebody reads this stuff. Or it wouldn't be printed. For the one unfailing medium of the equilibrium of demand and supply is the newspaper. The newspapers give the people what they want. Or what they think they want. For there is no more self obsessed humbug than this same public. . They like to be bunkoed and bullyragged and beaten and cheated and homswoggled. They know it all the time. And like our old if young friend. Oliver Twist, they shut their eyes, Open their mouths and howl for "more." This is the reason they maintain their ecclesiastical systems and keep up the churches. The majority of people are fully aware of the inadequacy and the hypocrisy of the thing they denominate

"religion."They know their meeting together In pious psalm-singing and lip-prayer raising is a farce. They know it. But they keep it up on and on and on and on yet again. They know their chatter of brotherly love means nothing more than that of the little English sparrows hopping from dirty eaves to grime encrusted twig. That their virtue is frequently merely skin deep. Because if they really meant what they said and lived out their professions the millenlum would be here. No manner of doubt about it. We are, in short, mostly horrible frauds. Grlmmacing and powwowing and smirking and making believe when all the time we'd rather be doing something else and don't give a hang about what we're pretending we like. The sage of East Aurora, he of the "Little Journeys" written in the attic chamber of the Philistine, of psendo emotions and financial acumen this Elbert Hubbard has said some good things. Hubbard is a sort of old fake but an amusing and entertaining fake. And none can deny his power. A successful fake always has that

possession. That's the reason he's successful. But Hubbard is far removed from being all fake. He's a third something else that's good and for the rest well, he's exquisitely amusing. And many things can be forgiven him who is amusing. A bore is never excusable. All bores should be put to death to slow music. Sometimes their own. For there be bores who think they can sing and play and otherwise maul and torture their instruments, voices and refined musical sensibilities of their audiences. - However this is by the way. Hubbard among other things has said something that, oddly enough, will be quoted here as relating to something that has been said before "Personal liberty is the art of discrimination knowing what you do not want and leaving it alone." This is one of the best things that has ever been 6aid by anybody. For herein lies the whole philosophy of life or at least that portion of it which relates to social intercourse. The . majority of people spend their ,time doing things they don't want to do and being with people they don't care anything about. There is a popular fallacy, in in

stance, that those of the same blood, and who are inextricably twined together with the boa-constrictor of kinship, must necessarily be of a vast and comented congeniality. When the truth is that there is no hate or dislike so deep, rooted as that which lies in consanguinity. And the reasons for this lie far back in the dim ancestral past when strains of blood were united which had flowed in such widely different channels that their forced merging evolved, not a new strain, but currents walled up in the same enclosure, each trying to force its way into mid-stream. Like those trees upon which you will find two different kinds of fruit

each brought to their maturity as though still on the parent stem. Their elements are eternally inimical. And continue to be so long as an infinitesimal diluted drop remains. The most uncongenial people are those who frequently have to live in the same house. Penned up within the same four walls. To this can be traced those alleged unexplained murders of a whole family by one of its members or satanic wranglings ending in the divorce and police courts. The truth is that there never was constructed a house big enough for two people all the time. There are times when no human being wants another within shouting distance. And wants to be let alone by everybody. For this reason you find so much squabbling in the slums where families must, perforce, be jammed up cheek by jowl until the human creature crys out against such close juxtaposition. Boil it down and you will find that half the human ills and crimes are attributable to forced propinquity. "What's that got to do with automobile sections in Sunday papers?" growled the misanthrope. "Nothing at all," cheerfully agreed the other p.son. "Merely started out

to say something and ended up with j something else." j The misanthrope grinned a Mephis-

toic grin. "'The deadly female!'" he sardonically quoted.

FACE COVERED

WITH

PIMPLES

Bed ahd Irritated. Pimples Festered. Itched and Burned. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment About .3 Weeks. Was Completely Cured. 1613 Dayton St.. Chicago, III. "My face was very red and Irritated and was covered with pimples. The pimples festered and came to a head. They itched and burned and when I scratched them became sore. I tried soaps and they would not stop the Itching and burning of the skin. This lasted for a month or more. At last I tried Cuticura Ointment and Soap. They took out the burning and itching of the skin soothing it very much and giving the relief that the others failed to give me. I used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment about three weeks and was completely cured." (Sigaed) Miaa Clara Mueller, Mar. 16. 1912.

It began first in patches on her face and under her arms, and then on her hands. We were very much alarmed about her as It was spreading so rapidly. We used Cuticura Soap and Ointment about one month and they cured my little daughter of eczema. Her skin is as smooth as could be and she is in fine health." (Signed) Mrs. Lizzie Roof. Jan. 27, 1912.

NO ADVANCE NOTED IN COAL PRICES

Curiosity. Curiosity Is finding out something about somebody else that doesn't concern you and which would make you mighty mad if somebody else found it out about you wheD it didn't concern somebody else. Milwaukee Sentinel.

No advances in the price of coal have been made since November 2 in

! this city though the local merchants ;

expect the price to soar at any time. Coal this season has been unusually

! high because of the strike in the hard

coal mines in Pennsylvania, the mine owners being unable to fill large orders since the strike.

I DR. S. B.

I received a letter from a good housewife of this state. She had been reading my last article on chronic catarrh. Her letter reads in part: "Dear Doctor Hartman: I was very much interested in your article on catarrh. I seu by youi explanation that ca-

H ART MAN tarrh is liable to

affect any organ of the body, that it can assume the symptoms of a great many different kinds of disease. There was one form of catarrh, however, that you did not mention. I would like your opinion on it.. I have heard it somewhere that there is a disease known aB systemic catarrh. What do you know about it, and what would you advise?" My dear Madam: I think Iwas the originator of the term " systemic catarrh. At least I had never seen it in print until I began to use it. Systemic catarrh describes a condition of the system closely resembling auto intoxication, or self poisoning. The catarrhal organs happen to be so located that the discharge of mucus cannot occur freely. It may be the stomach, or kidneys, or pelvic organs. Now if this vitiated, poisonous mucus cannot escape freely it will be absorbed by the blood vessels and carried into all parts of the system. It is Nature's attempt to get it out of the system through the kidneys. But in the effort to did the organ of the poisonous mucus Nature is unintentionally poisoning the whole system. This is what I call systemic

catarrh.

We hear often to-day the term auto

intoxication, which refers to a condition of the bowels. The bowels being clogged up, they ferment and become poisoned. The system attempts to rectify the trouble by absorbing the poison and carrying it out through the kidneys. The result is sickness, called auto intoxication. It is exactly this kind of thing that happens in systemic catarrh. The catarrhal secretions that do not escape by the internal .rgans are absorbed by the blood vessels and carried through the system, and the result is systemic catarrh. The remedy I believe to be Peruna. I believe there is no remedy in' the world that has relieved so many people as Peruna. The disease is not always known as systemic catarrh. Sometimes it is called dyspepsia, sometimes nervous prostration. Sometimes it assumes the form of anemia, and then again chronic malaria, also walking typhoid fever. All these conditions are fully described by the term systemic catarrh. It is especially prevalent during the typhoid season, September and October. I would not consider any other remedy than Peruna in such cases as these. Peruna is absolutely a perfect .remedy for systemic catarrh. All letters of inquiry answered promptly. Pe-ru-na, Man-a-lin and La-cu-pia manufactured by the Pe-ru-na Company, Columbus, Ohio. Sold at all drug stores. SPECIAL NOTICE: Many persons inquire for The Old-Tlme Peruna. They want the Peruna that their Fathers and Mothers used to take. " The old Peruna is now called Ka-tar-no. If your dealer does not keep it for sale write the Ka-tar-no Company, Columbus, Ohio, and tbey will tell you all about it.
