Tom Taggart's Turkish Bath

Behind his calm exterior, Tom Taggart

passed similar laws in other states. But it will see to it that a joker will be incorporated into the law that will make the whole scheme useless. Mr. Taggart, we said, is sweating with appre

hension and well he may because he stands to lose either way. If he submits to progreshre Democracy, he is done for. If he conquers it, the progressive Democrats will hie themselves to the Progressive party. Indiana Democracy must turn to the right or to the left. If it goes with the President, it can capitalize in its own interests the President's popularity. If it goes with Taggart, it will find itself helplessly side-tracked.

WHITES MAKE 336 , TO MAROONS 203

At the first meeting of the Ma

roons and the Whites, Earlham track teams, last night, the Whites, led by

Harre Cox, scored a total of 336 points, while Joe Roberts' White registered but 203. Some good marks were made in the three different events held.

The system used in scoring the

points gives every man on the squad

a chance to gain points. Every man

that finishes an event Is accredited with points according to the time or

distance made In the event. By this I means a member of the team aids his j

team whether he finishes first or last. Following are the results of laBt night's meet: Shot Put First, I. Wlnslow; second, ThiBtlethwalte; third, Thornton. Distance, 33 ft.

these the issue. And that is just what the Wilson-Bryan Democrats have done. Through Senator Kern, the party heads have openly asked the convention to endorse these elementary principles of progressive Democracy. "I was much surprised to learn that so great

It was in this way that President Wilson wrote to Senator Kern of the state primary election in a communication the latter was permittod to make public. "I earnestly hope that your state convention will declare for a state wide primary election law," wrote Secretary Bryan. "And the same may be said in regard to the initiative and referendumthe two reforms generally go together." In - appealing to the convention to endorse

these reforms, Senator Kern will

Read critically, they ring sincere ; read repeatedly, they never lose their power to please ; read sympathetically, they give that delight which true poetry alone can confer. Like all genius, Dunbar's flowered out in an unexpected place. That is one of the best things

To recog

nize it when it appears is a gift second only to the possession of it. But happily Paul chanced among those who divined his power. A school mate of his, who was also a poet and a friend of our own, was one of the first to own his gift and to prophesy his fame. "Mother" Selby and Edgar Iliff, both well known to .Richmond people, shared with William Dean Howells the privilege of making him known to a wider public.

Roosevelt once said that the characteristic

put the Lssue j musjc Gf America would ultimately be discovered

in a fusion of negro melody with our popular songs and pointed to Dunbar in support of his opinion. Keen student of men and women as he is, he saw in Dunbar's gift one of the first fruits of the negro soul. Roosevelt was right. And the race in which such possibilities are discovered, whatever its shortcomings in life's other departments may be, has a mission to the world. The Dunbar memorial, so fittingly observed last night, shows his brothers recognize that. If they will accept their destiny as he accepted his, they will discover the world to value nothing higher than the music and the songs which are sleeping in their veins.

HOSPITALS IN U, S, IN NEED Of RADIUM Europe Monopolizes Metal, While Surgeons Here are Offering Fabulous Prices.

WASHINGTON'. March I f. Radium neds of the United States will be represented in a striking manner by .loseph A. Holmes, director of the bureau of mines, in his annual report. Knrope is monopolizing the metal, he ways. There is a pitiful lack of the healing substance in American hospitals. "It is estimated that in the United Slates 75miO per sons die each ye;ir from cancer, says the report. "Radium is considered the most promising cure for certain types of cancer and in many cases where surgical operations are not practicable it is said to be the only known cure for this terrible disease. But the serious harrier to progress in demonstrating these facts is the scarcity of radium." 'There is probably not. more than ::' grams (about 1 ounce) of radium now available for use in such treatment in all countries. Of this amount there is probably not more than two grams of radium bromide in the United States, in the hands of a few surgeons. "Meanwhile, the American hospitals .'ire vainly endeavoring to purchase

I and bring back to the United States for their own use some small part of this radium, even at such prices as $120,000 to $1(10,000 per gram. "The fact that thus far they have been able to obtain not more than i two grams of this radium is due to j the fact that in Europe national govj ernments, w ell endowed national radj ium institutes, municipalities (as in Germany), radium banks, hospitals ! and speculative agencies are all en- . deavoring -to procure and retain sup- ! plies of radium for use in the several ; Kuropean countries, and the Ameri- ; fan people are only now awakening to : an appreciation of its importance."

How to Get Strong Doctors agree that the only way to gain strength is through food that is taken into the system. That is why a pure food medicine, such as Father John's Medicine, makes strength by means of its nourishing body-building elements which are easily taken into the system.

SAGE TEA PUTS LIFE AND COLOR IN HAIR

Don't

Stay Gray! It Darkens Naturally that Nobody Can Tell.

Those who are weak and run down have the best chance to regain flesh and strength during the summer months. How best to gain weight is told in the following interviews: Capt. II. F. Rehberg, 60 Carnation St., Pawtucket. R. I., says: '! gained IS pounds while I waa taking Father John's Medicine." Mrs. G. A. Goodwin of Blossburg, Pa,, says: "My boy gained 30 pounds while he was taking Father John's Medicine. It U a grand body builder." "I gained 20 pounds taking Father John's Medicine," says M. Crosby, 2161 Sth Ave., New York City.

Policeman Alexander Kilmer of Johnstown, N. Y., says that while he was taking Father John's Medicine he gained 15 pounds. "I gained 40 pounds by taking Father John's Medicine, and recommend it as a body builder," says Chas. Florence, 58 Stagg St., Brooklyn, N. Y. Remember that Father John's Medicine builds you up because it contains the exact kind of nourishment that blood and tissue are made of. It is a pure and wholesome food medicine for those who are weak and run down. It does not contain alcohol or dangerout drugs. (Advertisement!
