Early Christmas Shopping Annually the call ia issued for early shopping,

Merchants and their employes implore the public to come early, select early, and buy early, to avoid the rush of the closing days of the season. , They point to the advantages of selecting

Christmas purchases while stocks are still com

plete, enabling the purchaser to make a judicious selection. They tell of the better service which the. sales people are able to give before the rush sets in. It is the part of wisdom to heed the request

of the mercantile world. No cogent argument can be advanced for late shopping, for no advantages are inherent in waiting until the last minute to do that which can be done more easily and with more profit at an earlier date. Every advantage lies with the customer; who makes out his Christmas list early and does his shopping before wearly sales people vainly try to give service from stocks that have been depleted by the wise shoppers. Do your shopping early because it will be to your advantage.

The Automoile Show When an industry makes a display of its product, the advantages accruing from the exhibit do not redound solely to the benefit of the men who arrange it, but also to the city and to

the public. The automobile business, for instance, is one of the well established and strong enterprises of Richmond. The exhibit which the dealers will conduct during the last three days of the week will display the variety ajid scope of this line of business in Richmond. Thousands of citizens will attend the show and depart with a new idea of the magnitude of the automobile industry taken as a whole. The educational phases of the show will appeal irresistibly to the imagination of the visitors, force them to compare the comforts and mechanical

features of the modern automobile with those

that were marketed only a few years ago, and ripen the desire of many of them into the deci

sion to purchase. The automobile industry has become one of the leading industrial enterprises of the country. None can gainsay this point. Automobiles have come to stay as tremendous factors in our transportation system and indispensable vehicles for recreation and pleasure. . The popularity of the automobile has not been gained overnight or without hard work. li is the product of genius applied to mechanical problems. The result of long research and costly ex periments is embodied in the modern truck and pleasure car. The automobile show will display the triumph of American mechanical skill over problems that seemed insurmountable a few years ago. Every visitor to the show will be impressed with this fact.

Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton

English labor hopes to settle the Irish row between now and the holidays. In other words, to get 'em out of the clinches before Christmas. Corn is now so cheap and labor so high that the farmers have to give their corn huskers all their corn as Iiart pay for husking it. "Who is the greatest and most appealing character in fiction?" asks C. W. P. ' I vote for 'Jean Valjean.' " Jean certainly appeals to the heart. But in these cynical days how Broun or Mencken would pass an author who let his hero steal a loaf of bread to feed a widow and her orphans. They would demand that he author be jailed for it. " "Toys this year are largely mechanical and require great 6kill In the youngster." News item. Uncle Jimmie Stimmens was a corporal under Robert E. Lee. He used to tell us all about the strategy of the war and said he foresaw all of Grant's mistakes before Grant made them. "How came General Lee to use you as a corporal," the boys teased him, "when you knew so much?" Uncle Jimmie thought it over a minute, then he said, "Why, in Lee's army ii took a man as smart as General Grant to be a corporal." And fo in these days of difficult toys It takes a pretty ' smart man" to be a kid. "London Unemployed Seize Public Baths." The back wash of the war will soon be over.

- i FORERUNNERS Each of us is a forerunner. Forerunners for a coming age and forelunners of ourselves. All the time we may be so positioned that we may be inspirers of ourselves. A forerunner is a preparer one who goes ahead to get things ready.

He is also a running shadow of what you and I were but yesterday. And in his busy going ahead, he is an accumulation of both our good and bad. He is our pictured expression. It is a good thing to keep careful track of ourselves as forerunners. To be the kind that we would like to

lbe.

If we go ahead ana get things ready for those who come after us, it doesn't matter much where we pass. We have done our work we have eternally linked cur hearts and efforts iuto that of all time.

Cover the jar tightly and let stand in a cool place for three weeks, when the contents will be ready for a quarter of an ounce of mace, allspice and cloves, all coarsely ground, half of a grated nutmeg, half an ounce of cinnamon, broken fine, one ounce of powdered orris root and a quarter of a pound of dried lavender leaves. Mix all together in a bowl and fill the rose jar with alternate layers of the petals and the mixtures. A few drops each of rose, geranium or other fragrant oils should be dropped into the layers. Over the whole pour an

General Chang Tso-lin.'the military power behind the present administration, has used a drastic method to induce the manager of the electric lighting plant to furnish electric current. When his application for current for new quarters in the capital evoked the usual reply that it was impossible to accommodate any new subscribers, the general called the manager of the plant to his office and kept him there for three days until he complied with the request.

Officers of the Indiana Anti-Saloon league were to plead for the cause ot temperance in Richmond churches, Sunday, Dec. 11. A mass meeting was planned for the afternoon to be held at the Grace M.

Armory Board Appointment Asked of Gov. Goodrich (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 8. Adjt. Gen. Harry B. Smith, of the Indiana National Guard, has recommended to Governor Goodrich the appointment of an Armory Board, whose duty it would be to actively consider the question of

providing armories for all organizations of the new national guard. Lack of proper armory facilities in the opinion of General Smith is the only discouraging feature for the guard's organization, which Is now under way throughout the state. Valuable and delicate equipment will be issued to the state by the federal government for equipping the guard, and adequate housing facilities are needed because of this. "In order that Indiana may have an efficient guard." said General Smith, "it is absolutely necessary to have adequate armories and the federal government will insist on armories that will properly care for all stores and supplies turned over to the state."

England Faces Difficult Competition, Says Premier fBy Associated Press) ' COLCHESTER, Eng., Dec. 8. Premier Lloyd George said in a letter he sent the other day to the Mayor of Colchester that he was afraid Great Britain was faced with a difficult economic period and that "we shall have to meet growing foreign competition and growing unemployment. That we shall succeed in surmounting the difficulties I am sure, but only if the nation grapples with them in the same spirit in which it grappled with the prob

lems of the war. J. H. Thomas. Secretary of the National Union of Railway Men, and a Labor member of parliament, wrote: "Nothing is so fatal as the doctrine of doing as little as possible in order to find work for others. I think we shall recover from our present difficulties If for six months we have the spirit of 1914 again. Let us frankly recognize that both the employers and men are something to each other and both have to be together. I don't despair of the future. We are going to pull through."

Oh, you may stand and mention a hundred precious boons, but here's the great invention, this mill that plays me tunes! I hear the world's great singers, in song that flows and swells, and they are surely dingers, and they are

wearing bells. I hear Caruso thunder, he makes my soul rejoice; and Journet tears asunder the welkin with his voice: and Sembrich sings divinely the air she's designed to pick, and GalliCurci finely makes nightingales look sick. And there are humbler singers who chant the dear old hymns, and they are ever bringers of briny to my rJims; and there's a band a-crashing the bars of "William Tell," with energy so slashing that I rear up and jell. If some one stole my auto I mit-ht in grief repair to some sequestered grotto, and do some weeping there. And sorrow would be reigning upon my darkened brow, and I'd be heard complaining, if someone swiped my cow. But I would cease to chortle, and ne'er again I'd laugh. -if some blamed soulless mortal should lift my phonograph.

"I have suffered for quite a while with sluggish liver; at times I would get so dizzy. I would have to stop and sit down; spots would dance before my eyes; 1 had headaches and a bad taste in my mouth; my appetite became poor, and my food did not digest nor give me strength; my stomach was often sour, while gas and bloating caused me much uneasiness. The pains often extended round to my back and limbs, so tnat it was an effort to keep on with my work." says Mr. F. M. Lamb, living on Conners Road, West near Richmond, Ind.

"There was so much talk about and praise being given Dreco, I decided to

try it. The first bottle proved to me1

it was a good medicine, as it soothed my stomach and relieved the gas forming. I continued the treatment and never have a dizzy spell, nor see the spots before my eyes; my bowels act regular; my appetite is fine; and the food digests and give.-; me strength; I don't have any more pains in my back or limbs, and haven't had a headache in a long time.- Dreco is a good medicine, and I gladly add my words of praise for it." "Dreco acts on the liver in a smooth, gentle manner, gradually working off the excess bile day by day. It is neither strong nor harsh, and does not excite the muscles of the bowels, as sirong cathartics do. It tones up the digestive organs, and relieves gas on the stomach; puts an end to constipation; increases the appetite; gives strength to weak kidneys; restores tired nerves, and induces sound sleep. Dreco is a great blood purifier and tystem cleanser. AH good druggists now sell Dreca, and it is highly recommended in this city by Clem Thistlethwaite's Seven Drug Stores. Advertisement.
