Why

because he Is a thousand times more determined. "On no other theory, can you explain the sudden rise of the 'ordinary man Yet we see it all the time. Look around your neighborhood and you will find plenty of cases. The 'ordinary man' who begins to rise at unprecedented speed does so because he suddenly gets a vision, develops a desire, sees a goal.- Having done this, he begins to travel at a pace which he has never shown before.

"Strange forces give men purpose and jar

them into action. Love, pride, sorrow, fear all sorts of hidden feelings are responsible for the

shaking of men out of ruts and into fields of un

dream ed-of achievement. More than one big

success finds its real origin in the personal dis

appointment of some man perhaps over a college education he couldn't get, or a toy he couldn't afford, or a trip he was not able to make-,

Of course some men are 'downed' by such emotions, but others are 'made' by them. "Most men have perfectly good boilers in them, and fine equipment. But so many never get up steam and go anywhere! They don't want to go anywhere. They just stand still waiting for a call from within to 'get a move on.' The call is likely to come any time. If your call is late in coming, why not ring up your inner self and ask him if he can't think of some place he would like to go? It's a shame to have all that expensive machinery and not use it."

Some Men Are Able

The human heart from time immemorial has longed for the secret of success. Why some succeed and others fail is a question that has baf- ' fled investigation. Thousands of reasons have been assigned, but an analysis proved most of them wrong. Scientists have tried to see the riddle solved in heredity and environment, but thousands of cases have proved these to be a fallacy. Pezhapa the best answer to the query is that a man succeeds in proportion to his determination and will power. Determination knows no obstacle and circumvents every . handicap. Will power galvanizes man into action and keeps him keyed up until he has attained victory. Germany, for instance, preaches the "determination to win" to her masses. The Kaiser has tried

to create an unshaken faith in the ability of his

army to win. That determination to win, that inflexible decision of the will to defeat every na

tion has been inculcated into the German mind to such a degree that frightful losses of human life do not deter him from attacking again and again. The American people are getting this new principle. They are applying to their military machinery the same determination to win that characterized their industrial and commercial enterprises. "Let's go," "hit 'em again," "we've got to do it," "stick to it" are slang expressions that are expressive of this attitude. An excellent illustration of the value of will power and determination is found in the American Maga'zine in which the following incident is narrated: "Charles P. Steinmetz,' the hundred-thous-and-dcllar-a-year consulting engineer of the General Electric Company, tells us that men don't do big things until they grow discontented. He quotes an old Turkish proverb that the world belongs to the dissatisfied. No truer word was ever spoken. '"TV, j - u r i. il.i . . a j. ' i

Can Germany Stand the Strain

Laurence Laugblin in Scribner's Magazine.

E may as well dismiss the fiction that the Ger

man people will not follow the kaiser. For so long a time have they been trained to the sup

port of absolutism, so long has the process of stamping out individual thinking gone on, so long have they been Induced to believe what they are told by the ruling classes, so long have they been taught that every consideration of private Interest should give way to the demands of a supreme state that the materials for antagonism and revolution are absent. If rebellion were tried the grim discipline of the army can be relied on by the rulers to put it down In ruthless slaughter. Nevertheless, long before economic, financial and military power have been exhausted, may not the will to sacrifice have been modified? Before economic exhaustion approaches will not suffering affect the common will? Lack of necessaries makes a discontented proletariat. The psychology of the bully must be taken into account. The Germans are not good sportsmen. They are poor losers. Those who have lived in Germany will recall that In playing tennis the German, when the set was going against him, often left the court in high dudgeon without seeing the contest through to the end. With such a nature it can never be known when it may not suddenly break down under punishment, especially if it sees no chance of ultimate victory. Moreover, au fond, the German masses are essentially materialistic. They hallow the government because they have been taught that it created the extraordinary

material progress of the last thirty years. The longer the war goes on, however, the greater will be the debt, and the longer in future years must they be deprived of the former comforts of life by enforced saving. Have they not sacrificed enough? There are constant evi-

YE GUIO OLDE DAYS (Taken from -the Diary of Peleg Pol- . lett. 1803.) Wednesday, 17 March. Rose with the larke and. seeming fit for the labours of the day. Had for breakfast, besides a breaker of steaming Java, a large dish of bacon and eggs, of which I did eat nine of the latter, but without much relish, as they are so cheap. And bacon, It is a plebeian food. Was it not only yesterday that Neighbor Pringle drove over and gave us nine sides of bacon. But he is a schemer. He knew the bacon would spoil on his bands, as it is not worth hauling to market. It brings but fifty cents per hundredweight. We are very weary of bacon and much we burn in the grate of an evening to encourage the fire in the green pine logs. It is also of value in greasing the boots. But, as food, there are other things I would liefer have. To the market for Mistress Peggy, where I did obtain nine yards of blue cloth, five dozen wax candles, fourteen pounds of beef meat, a brace of dressed patridge. two pounds cf cheese, a bushel of potatoes and some sweetmeats with the dollar she gave me. Then home with the change, after stopping at the Royal Lion for several beakers of fale, which further reduced the change to only twenty cents. At luncheon I was much wroth to find eggs upon the table again as well as a boiled fowl, of which I am surfeited. At supper naught but an eighteenpound larded roast and a plum pudding, which two are my pet aversions. Mistress Peggy today drove to town with fifty pounds of butter and fourteen dozen eggs and returned proudly with $7.12. a truly grand sum. To the Royal Lion In the evening to

enjoy several beakers of ale and the , fine roasted turkey, prime cheese, an-j

chovles with which the barmaid served use copiously. Arranged with our butcher to send me two halves of beef, three hogs and five, dressed sheep for $4.35 to hang in my cellar. And so home and to bed, full of monotonous food but content with the ale. Tomorrow an egg-throwiug match and a barbeque with whole roast oxon the common.

EPILEPTIC FITS . FOR 9 YEARS

Indianapolis Woman Nearly Loses Mind Now Restored to Health.

By HAL POD A little man never forgets a big man, but the great most usually forget the --igreat. A small town hick not so long ago wen, up to Governor Goodrich when he saw him on the street in Indianapolis and said. "Why hello there, Jim. How are you?" The governor shook hands but was at a loss to recall the identity of the man. "Let me see, I believe I have forgotten your name, Mr. " the governor hesitated. "Why, Jim, don't you remember me? I'm Bill Hackett from Brown county. I'm the fellow that shook hands with you at the depot that day you come to Nashville two years ago." Quick Watson, the needle! A janitor at the court house resents the fact that the Towne Gossip recently

accused him of spelling the word 'use' in this manner, "Youse." He says he didn't do it and demands that we find out posthaste who did so and thus rectify the gross insult to which he was subjected. We are somewhat mystified as to just what the women will do about this registration business when it comes to telling right ages. We believe that if women had to register for military service there probably would not be any of them beyond the age limit. We'll have to start eating less custard pies because Charley Chaplin has been placed in Class I A. Pity the Kaiser when Charley gets in the trenches. Having read recently in this department about Clem Carr's ability as a marksman. Howard Horton came across with another yarn about the fheriff and his little shooting iron. Howard said that he and several of his workmen were levelling off a street when Clem came along and spotted a crow perched on a fence post alongside th road. He wanted to bet How-

ard he could hit the crow the first shot and the county surveyor took him up on the spot. So Clem stepped back a few paces, took aim and let the crow have it. Instead of hitting the bird, however, the bullet cleaved a hole through the level which was still sitting up in the highway. H.

but only for the county and state elections next fall. Voters are urged to come in and register as the average is not high enough to insure all county voters registering before the final day.

PLAIN QUESTIONS TO RICHMOND PEOPLE

Every Richmond Reader Will Admit the Soundness of the Logic. Would Richmond people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills as they do if the medicine were not reliable? Would they confirm their statements after years have elapsed if their experiences did not show the remedy to be deserving of it? Statements like the following must carry conviction to the mind of every reader: Mrs. Robert Hull. 46 S. Eighth St., Richmond, gave the following statement in September, 1915: "Several years ago my kidneys were weak and disordered. My back was weak, lame and ached steadily and my kidneys acted irregularly. I used Doan's Kid

BRIEFS

The story of this wonderful recovery is better told In the letter from Miss Kate Schoettle, S. Meridian St., Indianapolis :

"I have had what is supposed to be an Incurable case of Epileptic fits of nine years' standing. They were so severe that I nearly lost my mind entirely. I became a great burden to my

folks, as I could I

not be left alone. Five

years ago last August the blessing of health came to our house in the form of Hull's Superlative Compound. I began to improve from the start and my general health commenced to build up and the following April I had the last spell. Before this I tried almost everything that we would hear of, but without any good re-sults. By the use of the Superlative my mind was restored and also my general health. It has been five years since I had the last attack, and my health has been almost perfect all the time. I feel thankful to the Lord for a remedy that is such a great blessing to suffering humanity." What Hull's Superlative has done for Miss Schoettle, bringing health and happiness to her and her family, it will do for others afflicted with this horrible malady. Hull's Superlative is sold by all druggists on a positive money-back guarantee, and any man or woman who is sick or ailing no matter what the condition or how serious should lose no time in taking this preparation, for if it does not help you your money will

be returned. Adv.

Liberty Bounds are the ire a I we a pons ifor Victory

We have made a start on the long hard road to Victory. Our men are fighting at the front in France. Our American industries have accomplished prodigious results in building up a war machine to furnish munitions and supplies. But we have only begun. We must do more and more. This is not a war of armies but of nations in which every citizen must do his part. Every worker in our industries is truly fighting in this war.. Every man, woman and child who gives

of substance and savings is adding to the national power. The foundation of all our vast war -making machine is the Liberty Loan. Money is needed to build more and more ships; to furnish food and guns and powder and transport and airplanes; to raise and equip new armies. We must oversubscribe this Third Liberty Loan and do it quickly. ' We must show the courage that is in us. We must show a cheerful willingness to make sacrifices for our boys in the trenches.
