"It is a fair presumption that we are headed for economic depression," says the Chicago Tribune. xThere is one way to avoid it. We must 'put money away. "If We fail to say.e we ignore the disasters of the past. History may not prove conclusively
that we are in for a disturbance, but it points to1
a moral certainty. "We may escape it. If we do it will be because the human race has reversed itself. This Us a slender hope. It will not soothe the misery of financial depression. "The world war has created a condition analogous to vacuum. The ensuing crush is certain to icause many topplings. It happened so in Europe after the Napoleonic wars. It was repeated after the war of 1870. The period following the civil rwar was one of extreme disruption. Possibly we

From three to five years were required to stabilize the continent after the Franco-Prussian war. The civil war ended in 1866. Not until 1877 did reestablishment appear. "We are only a little more than a year away from armistice day. Armistice day was one Of violent jubilation. We still are celebrating it. We are spending foolishly and taking small heed of the future. Regardless of the disasters which previous wars have invoked, we are sublimely living on stilts. "High cost of living always has been the companion of war. This period is discovering nothing new. The symptoms we perceive have appeared again and again. They have not failed to support the diagnosis of depression. "Extravagance does its part to cheapen the dollar. sEconomy nourishes it. Experience shows us how depreciated currency has followed in the wake ,of great disturbances. Experience bids us

(Copyright, 1919, by The "Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) MARIAN. Mary, which is the root of number-( less feminine names of simple dignity, tis responsible for romantic Marian. AVa her forerunner, Marian signifies "bitter, but a sweeter name would be .difficult to find. Maria was probably Its direct progenitor and Marian came about throsgh the introduction of the French diminutive 'on', thus forming the name of "A bonny fine maid of noble degree. Maid Marlon by name." The delightful story of Robin Hood gave fame to her name and as early as 1332 she as given a unique place in popular favor by the play of "Robin et Marion" by the students of Angors. one of them appearing as a"fillette degulsee." The origin of MarfBnettes is thus explained puppets disguised to play the part of Maid Marion. Another explanation is that the term comes from the custom of calling the email images of the Blessed Virgin Mariettes or Marionettes and several streets of Paris where these tiny figures were set up were called the Rues des Marionettes. Gradually all puppets came to be called Marionettes, And the bauble carried by a court Jester was a Marotte or Marionette. In France Marion became very popular; indeed that country rarely accepts Marian. Marion was speedily 'contracted to Manon and also expand;ed into Marionette, as a poem written tin the thirteenth century gives proof. (Scotland has always loved Marion and '"Maid Marlon, fair as an ivory bone"

tner, averts danger, and gives a bold,
courageous heart. According to an old poem: '"Adorned with this thou woman's heart shall gain, .And by persuasion, thy desire obtain; And if of men thou aught demand, shall come, -With aU thy wish fulfilled, tejoicing home." Sunday Is Marian's lucky day and 2 Jier talismanic number. Her flower is the wild rose.
PROFESSIONAL MEN FORM NEW BRITISH POVERTY GLASSES
BY MARY HENKE LONDON, Deo. 10. The "new poor" form a problem that has proved a difficult one for England since the war. It is no longer the working class that demands the attention of social science students and philanthropists, but the mass of people of the middle class who are trying to live on pre-war salaries, with past-war expenses. Many are In desperate straits, recent investigation here has proved.
LEfforts to dress decently and keep
their children in school, as people have always done in their station, has kept them in a continuous struggle to make ends meet. Usually the head ot the family has emplrmeht which demands a prosperous appearance no
fnatter what his Income may be and
a chorus of complaints has been rising, "it can't be done." Bank Clerks Kit Bank clerks form one class who belong to the "new poor." It used to be a sign of prosperity to be employed in "the city" where all the large banking Institutes are. But now the bank
clerks declare they cannot live on their salary. Organized effort is being made to obtain relief for this class of workers, for it is pointed out that the banks are making very high
profits and can afford to pay higher j factory.
wages. School masters and instructors have always been given notoriously poor pay, and their incomes have not risen with the prices. Publicity was given recently to the case of - a discharged soldier, possessor of the Victoria Cross, who was able to earn only S15 a week as gymnasium teacher in a boys' school. Of all the professions, however, it seems tq be the clergymen who are the most serious sufferers. Cases of ministers who are in absoluto want
are constantly being put before the public. Some of them have seen service with the military forces and have been discharged without funds. The

wife of one of these men made a public appeal for aid in order that her
husband might be enabled to "carry on" in his profession. The average income of tho clergyman is $1,000 a year, and it is claimed that with taxes and outside demands on his purse, It Is Impossible to havo even necessities on that amount. Funds are constantly In demand for the. relief of needy clergymen, who "before the war were possessors of a comparatively sufficient Income. Shop Workers Protest. ' Shop girls and men have been Joining In the ranks of thoso who protest their present incomes are only "starvation" wages. Recently the employes of a well known chain of London stores went out on strike and public sympathy was quickly enlisted
on the side of the strikers when it became known that tho proprietors ot the stores had made 350 per cent during the last year, and that an employe after 28 years of service, earned on an average, $8 a week. Popular sentiment was so strong that the strike was ended in 48 hours with the demands of the workers granted. The result of these conditions has been to throw many men of the middle professional class into the ranks of the working class. The British workingman is having things about his own way now. His pay is good and he Is assuming an independent attitude that is a constant source of irritation to his more cultured superior. Once an English laboring man was

Although there is always the condition of unemployment, it is difficult to get work done and still more difficult to get work done well. It is the English workingman's day, and there is little wonder that the youth fresh from school, or Just out of the army sees little inducement in the genteel starvation his father is undergoing, rnd prefers the prosperity that seems most common to the man in overalls.

Mr. James Ratcliff, a prosperous j farmer near Radley, Grant Co., Ind., twenty-five miles from Muncie, gives ; the following signed statement for the ! benefit of the public. " j "I made a special trip to Muncie to- j day to tell about what this new medi- j cine Dreco did for me and to get some . for a neighbor of mine. This Dreco i has almost saved my life. For years 1 I've suffered from eczema. I'd itch 1
and scratch all night long; sometimes I'd get clean out of my bed and sit in a chair, for there was no rest for me. "My stomach was also out or order and my food did me no good but bloat me up with sour gas. I was very bilious and my entire system seemed run-down. "I've taken two bottles of Dreco and I want to say that even the red spots on my body where the eczema used to be are gone. I sleep all night long in peace; no more itching, scratching; no sitting up in chairs, as before. My stomach digests my food without causing gas to form; my liver has been cleaned oft; in fact, I'm In fine shape again and I give all the credit to Dreco, the great root and herb remedy." The blood has to be cleared of poisons to get rid of eczema. No better medicine for this can be obtained than Dreco, which is made of the juices of roots, herbs, barks and leaves, which act on the vital organs and tone them up. Mr. Powers, the well known Dreco expert, has headquarters at Thistlethwalte's Drugstore, to meet the local public, and explain the merits of this great remedy. See him today. Adv.
Acid -Stomach Makes Millions Old Before
Their Time
The famous scientist, Prof. Metchnikoff , declared that people generally become decrepitfeeble, aged years and yean before their time that a person ought to live well over a hundred years. He proved that the toxic poisons which form in the intestines and cause autointoxication had more to do with shortening life than anything eUe. Clean out these poisons and there is no reason why human beings should not live, hale, hearty, strong and vigorous, a hundred years or more. Such is the doctrine as taught by the noted Metchnikoff. What causes those toxic poisons where do they come from how do they get into the intestinal tract? Science gives us an answer in one word Acid-Stomach. Acid-Stomach causes food fermentation; and it is this mass of partially digested, sour, fermenting food passing through the intestines that creates toxic poisons that are absorbed into the, blood and carried into every part of the system, causing a long train of diseases and making millions of men and women feeble, haggard and old looking before their time when by right they should be strong, healthy, in the prime of life.. - Common sense tells us that in order to atop -those toxic poisons forming in the intestines, you most get rid of the Acid-Stomach; Just as
dentists tell us that we must get rid of acidmouth to keep the teeth from decaying. When acid forms in the mouth it eats right through the hard enamel of the teeth. Imagine, then, the ill effects of Acid-Stomach to the entire system 1 A modern way has been found of getting rid of Acid-Stomach so quickly, naturally, easily, that it seems almost unbelievable. This remedy is called EATONIC, a compressed tablet that you eat like a bit of candy. EATONIO leaves the stomach sweet, cool and strong, aids digestion and assimilation and so helps you set full strength out of every mouthful of food you eatIn cases of 'indigestion, heartburn, bloat, Belching, gassy, sour stomach, food-repeating and that miserable puffed up feeling after eating, EATONIC affords almost instant relief . Twenty-five thousand druggists sell and guarantee EATONIC. If it fails to please you your money will be cheerfully refunded.
