An extraordinary will has been left by an elderly unmarried lady who died in Vienna. Her property amounting to apout 50,000 pounds is appointed to be divided between her three nephews, now aged 24, 27 and 29, and her three nieces, 16, 21 and 22, in equal parts on the follow ing conditions: The six nephews and nieces must all live in the same house formerly inhabited by their aunt, with the executor, a lawyer, whose business it will be to see the conditions of the will are strictly observed. None of the nephews are to marry bef ore reaching his fortieth year or the nieces before their thirtieth, under the penalty that the share of the one so marrying will be divided among the others. Futher, the six legatees are ad monished never to quarrel among themselves. If one should do so per sistently the executor is empowered to turn him or her out of the house and divide the share as in the case f marriage. The executor is himself forbidden to marry or to reside elsewhere than in the house with the legatees is long as he holds his office, to which a handsome remuneration isattached . The old maid is said to have made this peculiar will because her neph ews and nieces continually worried her during her life by asking her to ?ive them money to enable them to marry, requests she always refused.

The local self-government plank in the Republican platform looks mere like a lath. It seems as if an effort was made to conceal it, as it was tacked on to the end of a miscellane ous paragraph. It reads: "We re affirm our allegiance to the time honored principle of local self-government and we do denounce the successive betrayal of that principle by our opponents, who long vaunted themselves its champions." "Reaf- ... T T 11 A 1 4 firm is good. Mow couia tney re affirm" a plank that was dropped out four years ago and was left out two years ago?

State Democratic Chairman Eller has appointed October 29th as Young Men's Day. On that day all of the Democratic speakers over the State will give special attention to young men. In response to ex-Gov. Jarvis's recent letter asking that the young men throughout the State have writ ten letters of appreciation. These expressions have been so full of zeal and patriotism that Chairman Eller has decided to make "Young Men's Day" a State-wide event. In every county in the State some young man of high character and useful purpose is being appointed to lead the young voters in their work for the State and for the Democratic party, whose mission it is to serve the State. Hun dreds of young men will cast their first vote this year. The object of the movement is to so fix the minds of these upon the duties of citizen ship that they will become citizens always ready to study public dues- tions and to vote intelligently for their country's welfare. Youngmen have been standard bearers in the Democratic party from the day of Jefferson down to Bryan. The fathers of this country pour ed out their blood and treasure to free the new land from the tyranny of monarchy and aristocracy. They succeeded, but to-day a new and deadlier form of tyranny is fastening Its fangs upon our country, and threatens to turn a government ded icated to liberty and human rights into a land of oppression with all power-concentrated into the hands of a few men. Taking their cue from Alexander Hamilton, who be lieved that the people were not fit to rule themselves, Republican leaders are to-day virtually denying the fundamental truths of equality up on which this government was found ed. Under their rule, a few men are aquiring all power and the mas ses are being reduced to a condition that abolishes the equality of oppor- ment is checked, the upward road that has always been open to our young men will be blocked, both in business and politics. The natural place for young men is in the Demo cratic party, whose purpose is to keep the road to opportunity open. The Republican party, standing for trusts, monopolies and narrowing opportunity, is not the natural home of the vigorous, manly young men who ask only a free hand and a fair chance. Turn the country over to the unchecked wishes of the Repub lican party, and the average J)ung man can only hope to be a clerk in the ranks of the monopolies, and if he be an exceptionally able man, he may hope to rise to be head clerk. But that is all. Corporate organiza tion and wealth are clutching into their deadly grip the opporeunities of a once free land. If the men of to-dav would bequeath a heritage of freedom and of opportunity to their sons, they must fight now. The Dem ocratic party stands for the open road. It believes that the people can and should govern themselves. It believes that America needs only a fair chance, and for that it will die in the last ditch. It is the stand ard for the young men to enlist un der, and it depends upon them to take their places and do their duty. Good results always follow the use of Foley's Kidney Pills.

We have had to make The Youth's Companion larger to get all the good things that Companion readers nntrht to have. The added amount would make four hundred p--ges of standard magazine size and print; but we haye kept the price just the same $1.75 for the fifty-two weeks 1911, and all the issues for the rest of this year from the time you send in vour subscription. We would like to tell you what is in store for Companion readers next year. We cannot do it here though; there is not enough room. But send us your address on a postal card, and we will send you the beautiful Prosprectus of The Companion for 1911, announcing many new features, together with sample copies of the paper. We think you will agree, when you have read them, that there is no other paper that gives quite so much of such a high quality as The Companion's Art Calendar for 1911, reproducing in twelve colors and gold abeautigul water-color garden scene.

Suppose the directors of the Union Pacific Railroad should say to Con gress: "When this road was being built the Government aided it to the extent of forty million dollars; the road has long been built, is very rich and profitable, paving ten per cent dividends on its common stock; there fore we demand that the Government now grant it another subsidy of a hundred million dollars." Or suppose, when the Elkins Law was under consideration, the direct ors had said: "For a great many years the railroads have systemati eally granted rebates to big shippers, thereby oppressing small shippers and building up monopolies like the Standard Oil Company. During these years the country's wealth has increased enormously. This increase in wealth is due to rebate system. If you'stop 'rebating you will destroy the prosperity." Such are the arguments for high protection which an apologist for that system gravely advances on an other page of this i sue of The Sat urday Evening Post. The founders of the Government were protectionists. That is, when the nation was young, small and poor, almost wholly engaged in ag riculture, with very little manu facturing, Hamilton advocated a protective tariff. A duty of about seventeen per cent was the measure of protection which he deemed neces sary to encourage the upbuilding of infant industries. Now that these industries have grovvnhuge and rich beyond all precedent we must give them still more protection or we shall be flying in the faces of the Fathers! True, the nation has had a high protection system, and its wealth has increased amazingly. This wealth came from the development of its rich natural lesources. What schoolboy will believe that the wealth is due to a system which made all the implements ued ;n :"nat development cost more than they are worth? We meet again the hoary and de funct argument that the foreigner pays the tax. But we shall not med- j die with it. That would be too much like digging up a graveyard. Also, the argument that high pro tection lowers prices. Of course, the favored trusts insist upon a high tariff because they know it will low er the prices of their products, thereby enabling them to pay their workmen high wages! The Government deeded many million acres of raw public land to home-steaders who settled upon and cultivated it. And it has licensed mamufacturers to overcharge the homesteader for his lumber, tool? and clothing. To put these two gov ernmental act? in the same category is strictly typical of the protectionist mind. Our apologist quotes some Script ure. The case might be rested up on one familiar quotation from the same admirable sovirce to wit: "Thou Shalt Not Steal." Saturday Evening Post. FILTHY STOMACH. Food Fermenting in Stomach Causes A Rank Condition. When you have indigestion your food sours; many times it actually rots and forms gases that poison the blood. Take MI-O-NA stomach tablets if you want to change your bad stomach into a healthy, clean one. MI-O-NA is the best prescription for upset stomach and indigesticn ever written. No matter how mis erable your stomach feels, MI-O-NA stomach tablets give immediate re lief. Take MI-O-NA stomach tablets, which are guaranteed to cure indi gestion, and rid yourself of dizzi ness, biliousness, nervous or sick headache, or money back. Ask E. T. Whetehead Company. Take MI-O-NA tablets if you want to make your stomach so strong that it will digest the heartiest meal with out distress, and furnish good, clean, nutritious blood making elements to the body. Take MI-O-NA tablets, one or two with or after each meal, if you want to get rid of that drowsy, tired out feeling. Fifty cents a box at E. T. White head Company.

This caused a pressure on my heart, so that I choke 1 and gasped for breath, r.nd thought mv time had come iuI-O-NA cured me after I had doc tored without success." Wm. V Mathews, Bloomington, Ind., 1910 MONEY IN THE BANK. How The Tables Have Turned for The Farmer. A few years ago when money to the farmer was the scarcest article that was known to his needs, and he had none to put away for a rainy fday, it was accasionally a joy to him to go to the bank with a check and draw from the institution of other people's savings. It was one of the longings of some of them to lie able to write a check on the local bank for the small obligations, but was de nied because he had no money to check against. Tables have turned, however, and it would be surprising to the average-citizen to know of the great volume of business now trans acted by the farmers through the means of banks. Nearly every far mer who has been able to save, a:d they are few who have not, when they pay for their paper and little articles sent out by mail to them send a check with the order. To de posit money in the bank is wise. It not only prevents robbary, but it is .i saving institution that beats every thing else, unless it be the building and loan association, and it is very gratifying to see this protection tak en by the industrious farmers of this section.
