ATTACK ON WOOD IS RENEWED BY BORAH; DEMANDS ACCOUNT WASHINGTON, March 30. Reiterating bis charges of excessive expen? dltures in the interest of Major-General Leonard Wood's candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination, Senator Borah, Republican, ' of Idaho, telegraphed Gen. Wood Monday, declaring that unless the prac

tices of the Wood campaign were cor

rected they would "bring disgrace upon your name, upon your party and UDon your country."

Information from various states, the

message added, had convinced Sen

ator Borah that his previous state

ments about the Wood campaign ex

penditures "were modest." The message follows:

"Press dispatches state you claim

the attack upon you was to sway the voters of Michigan. You are in part

correct.

"It was Intended to sway the voters

not only in Michigan, but in the Unit

ed States. I know of no other tribunal to which to appeal to correct these

practices. But is can only be effective

provided the facts I stated are corroct

It is within your power to give to the

people of Michigan and other states a

list of your subscribers, the amount you are expending, the amount which

you did expend in South Dakota, the amount which you propose to expend

for instance in Ohio and Illinois. Wants Statement.

"If you will make a statement of these facts over your signature, I will correct any erroneous statements

which I have heretofore made. The

material which is coming from South Dakota, Illinois and Ohio convinces me that I was modest in my statements. General Wood, if you are not familiar with what is going on in your behalf, for the presidency, I take leave

to assert that unless you familiarize yourself and correct it you will bring disgrace upon your name, upon your party and upon your country. "It Is up to you as a soldier and as a man to come out boldly and meet these facts and either show te public that they are unfounded or else repudiate the men who have manifested their determination to control the nation through the use of money."

THOMAS JEFFERSON

Appear in State Book

Plans for the Immediate publication of a gold star book containing the names, pictures and biographical sketch of all Indiana soldiers, sailors, marines and war workers during the world war were put under way Tuesday by the Indiana historical commission. It has been recommended that the state provide a copy of the book for every family bereaved by the war. Official records show that 3,246 men from Indiana were killed, and 14 purses sacrificed their lives, and the plan is to place the data in the gold star book.

IHOMAS JEFFERSON, as much

as Abraham Lincoln,

was nursed at the breast Of the unexhausted West. At the time of his birth beneath one

of its foothills, the Blue Ridge of Vir-.

glnia was the American frontier. The ; farm on which he was born had been : cleared In the wild forest by his pion- j

eer father when the "smoke of a neighbor's chimney hardly could be seen from his cabin door. Like both of his predecessors and so many of his successors in the Presidency, Jefferson was a widow's son. Losing his father at fourteen, as the eldest son he inherited the farm and

him welcome at the balls in the Apollo room of the Raleigh Tavern.

His already curious mind won for the

mere lad the remarkable fortune of a

place In a small group of learned and traveled men who regularly gathered

at the dinner table of Governor Fauquier to discuss the literature and music, the science and the philosophy of Europe. There over the roast and the pipes, the great world was opened to the silent, reflective youth. More- than William and Mary's the table of that unsuspecting royal Governor was the training school of the Immortal rebel who Indicted a King. To support the large family ot hla mother on their too small farm, Jefferson turned to the law. In seven years at the bar he doubled bis estate and Increased his slaves to four hundred. Buying the little mountain at whose feet he was born, he built upon Its summit from plans of his own

drawing, with bricks of his own making, and with wood of his. own cut

ting, the noblest house in all Vir

ginia. There at Monticello, he made his home ever after, and there at last, he died In sight of his birthplace, five

hundred eighty feet below. To this

eyrie one wild, stormy winter's night

he took his bride, the twenty-six-year

became the responsible head of the

family of eight children.

It was not a large estate, for the

Jeffersons, like the Washlngtons, be

longed more to the yeomanry than to

the aristocracy who lorded it over tide-water Virginia, But Thomas

Jefferson's mother was a Randolph

and sprung from the class which found in her son the most . unrelenting foe to its andient privileges. When he rode East, with his darling fiddle under his arm, to be a student at William and Mary's College, the tall, slender, sandy haired, snub-nosed, freckled-faced seventeen-year-old boy of the frontiersman never

had seen a mansion, a church or a

village of twenty houses, and he lookold widow Skelton, who brought him

forty thousand acres, including the famous Natural Bridge. Jefferson's law practice continued rapidly to grow until it amounted to two thousand five hundred dollars a

year, when be abandoned it forever to prosecute George III in the great and general court of mankind. He had heard the first call of the Revolution while a law student in Williamsburg.

Its clarion had been ringing In bis ears

ever since he stood, an eager lookeron. In the door- of the House of Bur

gesses. He saw Washington in his j seat and he saw his own friend, Pat

rick Henry a fiddling Virginian like himself, holding the floor amid cries of treason as he invited the King to pro

fit by the example of Caesar, who had his Brutus, and Charles I, who had his Cromwell. The sword, the tongue- and the pen of American freedom were well met that memorable day. After the pen had waited twelve years for Its turn to speak, Jefferson sat in the Congress at Philadelphia. The squire of Monticello was a silent member, as silent as the squire of Mt. Vernon. Opportunity and duty went straight to those two speechless Congressmen as the needle leaps to a loadstone.

Although the great Franklin, thf able, ambitious John Adams also were on the committee to draw to the Decclaration of Independence, they left the task Wholly to their vouneest col

league, the thirty- six-year-old. bookish, !

philosophic Virginian. When Con-! gress was editing the manuscript,

Franklin leaned over Jefferson to comfort him with a little story of a sign-' board which was to have read: "John Thompson, the hatter, makes and sells hats for ready cash," but which friendly neighbors, to shave the cost of painting, cut down simply to the name Thompson and the picture of a hat. By a miraculous escape, while a paragraph denouncing slavery was stricken out of Jefferson's draft of the Declaration .the assertion that "all men are created equal" was spared. That

been discarded if conservative members had foreseen what a blazing torch it was to become, lighting a Civil War that freed the slaves and' ever leading men on along the endless road to Justice and liberty.

A net profit of $508,899.79 was made by the Y. M. C. A. canteens during the war.

Croup and ' Gold Troubles Aro Best Treated Externally

COLDS are simply inflammation or congestion of the mucous membrane, or lining of the respiratory organs air passages and lungs. They should be treated just as surface inflammations, such as burns or bruises, are treated that is, the medication should be applied directly to the inflamed parts. But medication cannot be applied directly to the air passages and lungs except in the form of vapors that can be inhaled, and until the discovery of Vick's VapoRub, there was no efficient, economical method of supplying these vapors.

VICK'S VapoRub is the discovery of a North Carolina druggist, L. Richardson r who found a way to combine the standard, time-tested remedies Menthol, Camphor, Turpentine, Eucalyptus, Thyme, Juniper, etc. in salve form, so that when Vicks is applied to the body, these ingredients are vaporized by the body heat. . These vapors, inhaled with each breath all night long, carry the medication direct to the affected parts. At the same time.Vicks is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the congestion.

Spasmodic Croup and Children's Colds Vicks is particularly recommended to mothers with small children. It is externally applied and, therefore, can be used often and freely with'perfect safety. Let the children run out-doors, even in Winter, and get their needed fresh air and exercise, and simply apply a little Vicks over the throat and chest at the first sign of a cold, covering with a hot flannel cloth. For spasmodic croup, rub Vicks freely over the throat and chest until the difficult breathing

relieved. One application is commonly sufficient.

and an application at bed time usually prevents a night attack.

Deep Chest Colds, Sore Throat, Bronchitis, Coughs For inflammation of the respiratory organs where there is tightness or soreness, Vicks should be rubbed well over the throat and chest until the skin is red; then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. .The bed clothing shouldbe arranged in the form of a funnel, so that the vapors. arising may be freely inhaled. In severe cases, hot, wet cloths should first be applied over the throat and chest to open the pores of the skin before applying Vicks. . If the cough is annoying, small portions of Vicks, the size of a pea, can be swallowed every few hours.

7. AT3m

Head Colds, Asthma, Catarrh, Hay Fever For these troubles, Vicks can be melted in a spoon and the vapors inhaled, or a little applied up the nostrils and snuffed back into the air passages. There is no "cure" for Asthma and Hay Fever Vicks gives temporary relief in some cases.

Used as a Liniment, Salve, Poultice or Piaster In addition to its vaporizing qualities, Vicks has also been found to be an excellent anti-inflammatory application. It makes a cooling, soothing dressing for such troubles as Bites, Burns, Bruises, Cuts, Frost Bite, Headache, Itchings, Poison Oak, Soreness, Sprains, Sunburn, etc
