"United States Above Air This is the time of year when the "new citizens' allegiance" to the United States is emphasized in a hundred Washington birthday addresses.'.- ''.,. Never before since the civil war has it been more fitting and more necessary to emphasize that allegiance than it is in the year 1915, says the Chicago Tribune. ' For now the great .European war is pulling the sympathies of Americans one way or the other. Especially is it making our "new citizens" forget that they are in fact "citizens" instead of "subject8," that they have given up their allegiance to a foreign king and solemnly taken on an allegiance to the United States of America. Before the eyes of these new citizens their own journals in this country, here and there, are holding up sternly their duty to America. No reminder can be more effective than one coming from their own blood. None can be more effective than that printed by such a paper as the Polish Courier of Milwaukee. . . . - .... This publication, on its front page, beneath an American flag, reprints the solemn words of the new citizens' oath of allegiance. It draws from them their plain moral of today. Says the Courier : "This is what you promised under oath: "I hereby declare on oath that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance

and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, and particularly to . '"William, emperor of Germany; or : "Nicolai, emperor of Russia; or "Franz Joseph, emperor of Austria; or "George, king of England; , of whom . I have heretofore been a subject, and that I will support and defend the constitution and laws of the United States, of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and that I will bear the, true faith and allegiance to the same, so help -me God." '-',' ..- . Therefore No 'Deutschland ueber alles!" No "ftosija prezdie wsiewo ;" ' No "Oestereich ueber alles;" No '"England above all ;" . . But. :: r . "United States above all!" i Nativeborn Americans as well as those of foreign blood should read these patriotic words. Our allegiance is not . to any foreign state. Our loyalty is to the United States. ,, In these days at Washington the problems of sympathy for ohe or another of the great powers at war are passing from their first form, in which they were mere matters of sentiment. They are coming down to the iron of actual facts. ; We can no longer think luxuriously of what we should do, or could do in behalf of one or another combatant should certain conditions or opportunities arise. We have now to think of what wo must do in our own behalf in the face of conditions which threaten our own welfare. Some say that Germany is trying to use us against England; others that England is trying to use us against Germany. In either case or in both cases the one safe rule for all of us to follow is that which the Polish Courier has put thus into "translated" English: "United States above all I" This must be the motto for us all, native born or foreign born. Let lis all, in this time of memories of Lincoln and Washington, take anew the oath of allegiance to the. United States of America.

Notes on Suffrage

Representative of Franchise League Describes Activity of Workers in Local and State Field Richmond Branch Reports One Hundred Members in Good Standing W. C. T. U. Places Discussion of Ballot on Program for County Institute at Fountain City.

bers are especially requested to come and take part in the discussion following the talks given by Mrs. Phariba Stephens on "Some Ways of Promoting Woman's Suffrage," "The Best Way to Obtain Suffrage," Mrs. Rebecca Davis, and "The Strongest Argument for Woman's Suffrage," a paper by Ginevra H. Kirkman.

That the cause of woman's suffrage may be more widely known, meetings in- its behalf announced and reported, and that the superintendents of the franchise department of the W. C. T. U. for Wayne county may be kept in touch with the county superintendent, these notes will appear weekly. W. C. T. U. franchise superintendents will pleaee read them at their meetings.

The legislative council of Indiana women has a bill before the legislature similiar to the one by which the Illinois women won the presidential, county and municipal vote. The council is officered by some of the most prominent women of the state, who Rive their time and bear their own expenses, many of them matring weekly trips from their home in various parts of the state to Indianapolis, where the council has headquarters in the state house, Room 76.

est of women and .children. The preamble of its constitution contains these words: "Realizing our position as component parts of the body politic with no voice in its government or control, although all that is most precious in life is at stake, and desiring to familiarize Indiana women with current public policies. the legislative council of Indiana has been formed."

Twelve states of the union have now come around to hiB opinion. The action of several state legislatures recently indicate that before 1916, there will be many more "white" states to add to the suffrage map which he found in the February 16 issue of the Indianapolis Star. Preserve it for fu ture reference.

There are seventy Woman's Franchise leagues in Indiana, and the Richmond league has over one hundred paid-up members. A Franchise Colonial team will be given next Monday evening, February 22, at the home of the Misses Moorman, 122 South Sixteenth street. Each member may invite two guests. Oldtime costumes and powdered hair will be the order of the evening.

The county W. C. T. U. institute will be held at Fountain City at a date to be determined by the institute leader, Mrs. Retta Jones of Alexandria, and Mrs. Mary Woodward of Fountain City. A suffrage debate will be part of the program which will be given later.

YOUR FRECKLES

In the celebration of Lincoln's birth day, special prominence was given this year to his advocacy of votes for women. In a letter to his constituents published in the Sangomon County lournal in 1836, Lincoln declared, "that he favored giving the ballot to all American citizens, who possessed cer:ain qualifications, by no means excluding females."

Mrs. Luella F. McWhirter is actiug president during the absence from the state of Mjrs. Grace Julian Clark. The abject yf the cpuncil is to originate ind promote legislation in the inter-

Every W. C. T. U. woman wou!rl vote for the best interest of the home were she given the ballot, and there are over 300,000 of thm, loyal and true, in the United States. The gain in membership last year was over 30.000. Indiana has a membership of nearly 10,000. The World's W. C. T. U. was organized in November, 1883, and is now working in fortythree departments in fifty nations, with a membership of over one-half million. Next Wednesday afternoon, Febru-

Need Attention in February and March or Face May Stay Covered. Now is the time to take special care of the complexion if you wish it to look well the ikst of the year. The Februard and March winds have a strong tendency to bring out freckles that may stay all Summer unless removed. Now is the time to use othine double strength. This prescription for the removal of freckles was written by a prominent physician and Is usually so successful that it is ' sold by druggists under guarantee to refund the money it it fails. Get an ounce of othine double strength, and even a few applications should show a wonderful improvement, some of the smaller freckles even vanishing entirely. adv.

Editor Palladium: The great Irish, German and American demonstrations that have been held in 'Philadelphia,- St. Louis. Chicago, Baltimore. Indianapolis and many other cities are creating more and more, a sentiment against the unjust stand the leaders of our government are taking In behalf of the real neutral interests of this, our grand republic. ' It has been voiced and with some reason, that this country can stop the awful butchery going on now : in Europe in ninety days. The good citi jens of this country want no war. We for that reason declared neutrality. We have had Peace Sundays, Days of Prayer and Supplication for Peace. We are gathering thousands of dollars for Red Cross work, orphans and widows, and still we are allowing shipments of ammunitions and war materials that run u Into millions. What a horrible state of affairs I Praying for peace on Sunday

and allowing capitalist murderers to

do as they please on Monday or any other day.

Mr. Bryan who has had the' confidence of thousands of good German and Irish voters has taken a stand in favor of shipping to any country. Does he think that he can hide the defects of his party by encouraging business in this way? Don't he know that the Irish and German workmen of this country are to a great extent the backbone of this nation? Does he expect us to work day and night manufacturing Infernal death machines to slaughter our brothers and relatives? This kind of prosperity is based on tainted money steeped in the blood of countless numbers. We citizens are loyal to the United States. We need all provisions and ammunition for this country. We want to stay at home and protect ourselves, and keep our hands off of the most horrible bloodshed the world has ever seen. Citizens! Stop the shipment of all war supplies, lest the blood of our sins fall upon our children. Stop and think of the thousands of little children crying for fathers who will never return. Stop and think of all the forlorn mothers and wives who have been robbed of their loved ones. Stop and think of men lying in snow and water filled trenches, who suffer for days without being found. Hell has no more horrors than this. The Russian, English. French and German all alike supposed to be Christian brothers, lying side by side in hospitals

groaning life away in a ways that seems like eternity to them. One can only exclaim! God, My God, why has Thou brought this on our heads? Let us be warned in time, Germany has warned Us that England is taking advantage of us. Why not keep bands off? We ask no favor for any nation. We cry for universal justice. The following might tend to Illustrate the spirit of real neutrality based on a true happening: , Between the two firing lines of German and French in one of the hard fighting districts there lives a noble woman in an underground burrow or house, if you wish to call it. The moment a lull is on between the foes, this . brave woman picks - up both French and German soldiers that are wounded. She takes them in' her care and nurses them back to life, both French and German are treated alike. At the entrance or door of this underground hospital, she has posted the white flag, with the inscription in bold letters, "I Am Neutral." Lets pull up every human mind to such a grand elevation and war will be no more. Signed. A NEUTRAL CITIZEN.

KIDNEY TROUBLE FROM OVERWORK eiBSSBSBBBSaBa--aMaS I am a blacksmith by trade and would like to Bay a word to all who have to work hard and suffer with; their kidneys. I suffered for about tenA years and was treated by a Waynes-' boro. Vs.. doctor. He said that I bad kidney trouble in its worst form and -that he bad done all he could for me. I read about Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and as I could hardly do a day's work,was willing to try anything that would

do me any good. After taking SwampRoot a few days I felt so much better -

that I continued until I felt that I was cured and I was altogether a new man.' That was eight years ago and if I ever

feel the least pain about my kidneys . I just take a few doses of Swamp-Root and in a few days I am all right. I feel today that I am a well man and

would say to all who suffer with their kidneys, take Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-

Root and in a few days I am all right.

I feel today that I am a well man and

would say to all who suffer with their kidneys,- take Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-

Root, for It has done more for metban

all hte doctors, and saved doctors' -hills.

I can further say that, about two years ago my son was sick in bed and was taking medicine from doctors and' got worse all the time. I went in the night and got a fifty-cent bottle of Swamp-Root and told hi mto lay aside all the doctors' medicines and take' Swamp-Root. He took six bottles and I am glad to say that he is well today and has not had any trouble with bis kidneys since. It was Swamp-Root that cured him. My son now thinks that there is no medicine that a doctor can give that can compare with Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. Very truly yours. G. W. HARDING. Covington, Va.
