That an organised attempt has been made to blacken the reputation of the popular family remedies of this coun try, and to mislead the newspaper publishers into rejecting the adver tialng of such medicines, was the charge made hy Carl J. Balllett. of Buffalo, N. Y., at the convention of the Advertising Affiliation at Detroit. • Mr. Balllett is a director of the Pro prietary Association of America, which Includes la Its membership two hun dred Arms which make the popular prepared medicines of America. Mr. BalUslt pointed out that it ia the duty of the newspaper publisher to refuse the advertising of any fake or fraudulent medicine. Just aa It is his duty to refuse say take or fraudu lent advertising, but it is not right to ahut down on all medical advertising because there have been some fakers, any more than it would be right to refuse to publish all department store advertising because certain stores have made a practice of lying about bargain sales. Disease and death are mysteries. People who are perfectly well are skeptical. They laugh at the time worn patent medicine Joke, just as they laugh again and again over the many variations of the operation Joke —"The operation was a success but the pattest died." This so-called hu mor has perhaps hurt the medicine bnsiness with well people, but when the hitherto healthy maa feels a se vere pain er Illness, he immediately wants medicine, sad will Mass the cure whether It be at the hands of a regular doctor, a homeopath, an osteo path, a Christian Scientist or patent medicine. There is nothing more deadly than disease; nothing more honorable than to cure it. Mr. Balliett refuted the Idea sought to be spread about that patent medi cines are unpopular by showing that from 1900 to 1912 tbe amount of pre pared medicines consumed In America Increased from 1100,000,00# to |160,- 000.000 annually. He showed that. al though the American Medical Associ ation la trying as an organization to exterminate so-called patent nedl cinea, tbe family doctor, Individually, la not fighting them bat prescribing tb©f* lie eat I mated tbat 40% of the prescriptions written by doctors today include proprietary medicines. Tbe writings of Dr. Harvey W. Wi ley. be said, have also aimed to de stroy confidence In proprietary medi cines; but that Dr. Wiley's ideas are not Infallible is ahown by cases where his analyses were entirely wrong. Mr. Balliett mentioned a case where, with all the power of the Government, be fought a preparation as being danger ous to health, and was Ingloriously walloped. There has been spread the idea that a clever faker can mix a few useless ingredients and, by smart advartiaing, sell tons of it and win audden wealth; whereas, as a matter of fact, the medi cine business is notoriously difficult, and, where there haa been one success at It, there have been a hundred fail ures. Any medicine which has no merit cannot live, because persons who are duped Into buying it once will not bay it again, and the profit from advertising a medicine can only come frosa repeat sales to the same, satis fled people. Therefore, any medicine which has been on the market for a number of years, and is still adver tised. must have merit behind it to ac count for Its success. WINCHESTER THE BRAND Mo««iMi.ifft / jml REVOLVER AND PISTOL W( m CARTRIDGES.

Millions of people are using Dodson's Liver Tone instead of dangerous cal omel now. Your druggist will tell you that the sale of calomel Is almost stopped entirely here. In conclusion Mr. nalllett declared that no newspaper Is doing justice to its readers in-the matter of medical or other advertising, unless It investi gates, not only the wording of the ad vertisement offered for publication, but the merits of the article adver tised. He pointed out that the few newspapers who have been deluded into the poliry of barring out medical advertising hsve adopted this general policy, rather than to form an Inves tigation bureau of this kind which could. In a constructive and useful ef fort, investigate and decide what Is a good product and whst Is a fraud, in not only the medicine business, but in every other business which adver tises Its wares to the public. The audience seemed to agree with Mr. Balllett's ideas on the subject and the chairman decided the qu«stion at issue in his favor. Litany for Wssk-Oaya.

LET US ALL GIVE THANKS B«ason la a Time to Be Glad, and ta Make Others Around Us Par take of Our Joy. ' Let us make this the best Thanks giving of our lives. Remember our gratitude is not measured by the size of tbe family larder. Abundance tends to contentment, but many a man In limited circumstances Is hap pier than others of larger means. Real wealth and worth lies not in the abundance a man hath, but in content ment's gold. When the Heart Is full the whole world Is richer. Your smile will go a long way toward making someone else happy. A cheerful life opens avenues to future achievement hidden to him who sees no good around him. The past Is a matter of record, the present Is near and real, the future Is limited only by yourself. Make it all It can be, and history will add a new chapter, and you will be the hero. Let us give thanks. The nation needs the Inspiration of your song. There tfre plenty of groans and grunts and growls. We need more song. It hain't no use to grumble and complain; It's just as cheap and w&sy to rejoice. You will feel more manly by being glad. It adds to your self-nespect and makes you feel tbat you liave a place In the world. Inspire your age with a new type of chivalry. Meet drones and kickers with a smile and you will do much to bring In the good time that Is to be. Wherever you are let this be a real period of thanksgiving. Let us see If we cannot add to the I world's joy by the spirit of our own living. Universal Day of Thanks. About the Institution of Thanksgiv* lng as it exists today there is noth ing sectarian or sectional, but over the entire Union the day is observed by all Americans alike as the time for family reunion, good cheer and gen eral rejoicing and gratitude. .

Looking at it in this way a pain la a useful alarm. Now, kidney weak ness is a dangerous thing—a condition not to be neglected—and it is wlso to know and pay attention to the early alarm signals of sick kidneys. f ickache is a common warning of « ngestlon or inflammation in the kid neys. It may be dull, nagging pain, or a sharp twinge when stooping or lift ing. There are likely to be disorders t urination, ditsiaess. headaches, and ►wsy, despondent, tired feelings. It is very hard to strengthen weak kidneys at first, hut neglect invites rheumatic or neuralgic attacks, gravel, dropsy, and fatal Bright's disease. As a special medicine for weak kid neys Doan's Kidney Pills have been used for years all over the civilised world, and surely are considered reli able. The patient can always help the medicine Immensely, however, by diet ing lightly, using little or no liquor, tea or coffee, keeping regular hours and drinking lots of pure water.
