A Great Statesman

"The recent near-tragedy at Paris, in which

M. Venizelos barely escaped death at the hands

of .Assassins, directs public attention to one of the most remarkable characters in Europe," say3

theCjlncinnati Enquirer.

"Since 1908 the people of Greece and of the world in general have recognized in Venizelos a truly great man, a man with prophetic vision and

universal sympathies.4 Being a man of progres

sive ideas he has suffered from the envy and

obstinacy of the conservation leads of traditional authority and the mediocrities who ever hold to

established precedence.

"Happily for Greece and the world, his

people, the common people, had faith in him.

But particularly since the peace conference at Versailles the man and his achievements and

policies have received the approval of the public opinion of the world.

"Said Clemenceau: 'I am not great, Venizelos is great.' President Wilson did not hesitate to

say with admiring frankness: 'Venizelos is the

said of him J 'There is no truer man and no staesman more honest in the whole of Europe that M. Venizelos.' Similar tributes might be multiplied indefinitely. But this would be quite unnecessary in view of the public's knowledge of the noble career of this distinguished man. He founded the Balkan League for the liberation of subject Christian races from the Turks. He scorned alliance with the- young Turks in 1913. He assured Poincare that Greece would stand with France to win or perish for western civil

ization. He has played fair with all nations and

has held his own people strictly to the obligations of national honor, and this in face of tremendous temptation and formidable opposition and heart-breaking disappointments. "America in common with the better elements in every European nation rejoices in the escape from violent death of this real world statesman, who at the same time is a patient, gentle character, a lover of mankind."

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams

PLEASE TELL ME A STORY! One of the prominent controlling - evidences that a God surely lives, Is ": wrapped within the heart of memory, v If we couldn't run quickly back to childhood's hour if only for a moment how drab would be the work of the day! If we couldn't hear the sweet ; encouragement of voices long silenced or feel the touch of hands once warm, which so loved to stroke away the ;; rain, even imagination would lose its s 'ull and its color would fade into a ,. deep darkness. We want a thousand times to hear a ' door quietly open and a mother to tuck ' us tightly in our bed and we want to ay once more: "Please tell me a story." And what a story it always was! Every word dipped into a can of love. We all have our lacks and longings. But if someone is around to tell us a story, the flowers begin to sprout right off, and birds which sat silently, hidden by dense foliage, open their throats 4 and pour out their favorite songs. Have you never wakened suddenly .; from sound slumber and longed for . someone to slip into your bed chamber rnd tell you a story so that your heart : might get sleepy again and your body melt into serene rest once more? If you have never had the thrill of a

child's arms about your neck and the j

words "Please tell me a story" whispered into your ears then I would say that you have missed a whole acre of ; heaven from your experience. It is a good sign to get tired. It is a part of the plan of Nature. But sometimes you get so tired that you can't pet to sleep, somehow. But if you will then sav: "God, please tell me a story." He will. And then you will awake "To find thy dream to be A noonday light And Truth to thee!"

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today

Two dairymen who delivered milk in Richmond were warned by Dr. T. Henry Davis, city health officer, that upon another discovery of their milk not being up to standard, jthey would be vigorously prosecuted for violations of both city and state statutes. It was learned that the two dairymen referred to were selling milk with an excess of 87 per cent water, Indicating that the product had been artificially watered. John Zwissler, of this city, president of the Indiana Association of Master Bakers, issued a communication to all members of the organization urging them to handle bread .in a sanitary manner in order to influence the state board of health to revoke its order, which became effective January 1, compelling the wrapping of bread.

The office boy had made his 100th mistake. His employer sent for him. "Have you anything to say for yourself?" asked the man of business, sternly. "If I made mistakes like you I'd never be where I am." "Yes, sir," replied the lad promptly, "but if we were all like you, you would

not be where you are. either." The boy is still on the job. As he weighed out the sugar the grocer's boy whistled lustily. "Don't you know that it is very rude to whistle while you are waiting

on a lady?" said the- elderly customer, severely. "Well, the guv'nor told me to do it when I served you," explained the boy. "He told you to whistle?" said the customer, in great surprise. "Yes'm! He said if ever we sold you anything we'd have to whistle for the money." "Gimme three cigars," ordered Mr. O'Rourke, shoving a quarter across the counter. "Strong ones or mild?" "Gimme the strong ones. The weak wans is always bustin' in me pocket."

a soapstone cake griddle to a garden rake. The other night we telephoned for a small bottle of soda mints, and them, being ashamed of the small order, we added three cigars. The order came promptly, and with the three cigars came three boxes of safety matches. Our druggist Is a wonderfully efficient guesser. It. took exactly the three boxes o? matches to keep the three cigars going to their finish.

After a total of 10 days had gone by and another week end had arrived, the suit arrived with it. "Thought we told you to have that suit back here by Saturday?" we snarled.

Science Hindis Wltoati : Your Body Needs If of Mealttlhi aurad SttreimgHIfti' Thousands of Weak, Nervous, Rundown People Often Fail to Get Renewed Energy From Old-Time Drugs and Tonics Because They Lack Vitamines, Say Authorities. How to Tell If Your Own Body Need These Llfe-Glvlng Substances to Build' Nerve Force, .Physical Power and Mental Vigor.

New York (Special) Thiat countless numbers of people have) failed to reach the fullness of healthy strength and vitality because of the lack of those life-giving substances the vitamines 13 the opinion of many experts here. For years, numberless drugs, tonics and various preparations have been exploited for weakened,, nervous, run-down conditions but the very fact that they were probably, one and all. lacking in the vital substances which Science now knows to be essential to physical power, mental vigor-and even to life Itself is sufficient evidence why they failed to come up to the-expectations of their users. In commenting- upon this, Dr. John J. Rudolph, a former Health Commissioner, late of New York Hospital Staffs, and Graduate of the University of Baltimore, says: "If 1 were asked, What are Vitamines?' I Bhould say, They are life they are energy they are power they give strength and beauty to your body and vigor to your mind." Nature supplies vitamines in certain raw foods, but even though you were to select the very foods which do contain vitamines you would probably not get enough of them to do you much good. Owing to methods of preparation and cooking, many foods are robbed of their vitamines before they reach our tables. As a result you fall to get enough strengthening nourishment and even now every organ In your body may be crying for the llfe-glvlng vitamines which Nature seems to have provided for the express purpose of building vigorous health, keen mentality and great physical power. But with the introduction of Vltamon, a concentrated form of vitamines combined with other health-giving elements, there Is absolutely no reason why prac

tically anyone not afflicted with some organic disease should not expect tot be as strong, healthy and well-proportioned as Nature intended. Just as the antiquated teams of oxen have given way to the automobile of today, so are some of the old time drugs and tonics being- replaced by the newer discoveries of Modern Science, and I am convinced that Vltamon puts within easy reach of every weakened or rundown man or woman a simple, easy means which often quickly bring them to the point of renewed health,, strength and vigor. So, no matter" how many tonics, drug or other preparations you may have taken in the past with the hope of building yourself up,. If you are still In a weakened, nervous and rundown condition this Is the surest indication that you have never taken the right thing you have probably failed to get the nourishing vitamines Into your system. But so rapid, so pronounced and so amaslng are the results I have seen produced by Vita--mon, that no matter what anyone says: I do not believe there Is anything whatsoever to which this discovery can be compared. Not until you have taken Vltamon yourself and watched Its effects In your own case can you form, any Idea of the vast difference It may make in your health, strength, mental, vigor and physical appearance. Vita--mon may be taken with benefit by either men or women, young: or old. atr. all seasons and surprising results are; produced in many cases within a remarkably short space of time." NOTE: If after using Vltamon youj

are noi entirely sansnea wim me re

sults and are not convinced that it has; been worth to you far more than youl paid for it. the trial will cost you absolutely nothing. Vltamon may nowt be obtained In this city from all leading druggists, such as, Thistlethwalte,, Daffler & Spanagel. Qulgley's and Lu-i ken' s. Adver Us em ent,
