And no one should blame us if we followed suit. The subject is y conspicuously absent from our of- j-M ficial pronouncements just now,g and also from expressions of press j w opmion-probably because our bu rden has been much lighter than that of some belligerents, and be cause we have borne it for less than two years. It is also our pol icy to be magnanimous in our in ternational relationships, and we! will no doubt follow t at the con- 1LS IT Ul hf Evem F EOT CO H H i-3 ference.

And it seems reasonable that some other person than Un cle Sam should foot the bill. If Germany had been victorious the populations of the Central Era pires would have been a unit in de manding that we be skinned alive. A few months ago the journals of all their political parties declared that France must be crushed into permanent helplessness. Twenty -five years experience in dealing with the public has taught me that "toeing the mark," adhering strictly to honest business methods, giving Every-bne a square deal and showing customers the utmost courtesy in appreciation of their friendly patron age are ihs very Greatest assets in defying competition. It matters not what others may do, I shall continue to abide by the above rules, un der which my business has grown Two Hundred & Fifty Percent Within The Past One Year. Many thanks.

PROFESSIONAL CARDS PATERNALISM 4 1 But how do you reconcile," I may be asked "this statement with what you said a little while ago about the marvelous efficiencv of our democratic army?" My answer is that the efficiency of the army is not a contradiction of, but a confirmation of my thesis When th : war began the Kaiser . because the army in war times is was the Man of the Hour.

The United States appears to be receiving Mr. McAdoo's proposal for the reduction of the new tax bill with much cheerfulness and equanimity. "We should judge by recent ap pearances that many of the hobos who were obliged by war regula tions to work had now gone back to their original profession.

WALSTON, Prop. Sanitary and up-to-date. Special attention given to cinldren. A joyous Thanksgiving, this of 1918, yet deeply tinctured with the pathos and glory of the white crosses which our nation claims up on the fields and hillsides of France. What we don 't know, we are certain to sometime find out; but it is better to attain the height where we DO know than to fore ver be steadying the ladder on which we expect to climb. ThinV so ? Food restrictions have made it istered upon an autocratic basis. Obedience, discipline, esprit de corps, unquestioning submission to established authority, complete mergting of self in the task on hand are its very essence. Promotion is according to merit, selection ac cording to qualifications, political pull and interference are conspi cuous by their absence. Were these things not so, the army could ac hieve little, whatever the bravery of all ranks. Will any one say that this s a picture of the habitual frame of mind and disposition of our civi lian population or of the practice.? of our Government, Democratic or Republican, in ordinary times? We all know it is not, and it nev or will be a life like picture of us in our normal state. "Never" is a big word, but if the experience of many centuries may be taken as a guide, it may safely be applied to certain essential qualities of. hu man nature, excepting tempora ry conditions when, under the im- . j. ' . j'iuse ui great emergency, me floodgates of what is highest and noblest in man are opened and the mighty current carries us along to regions not ordinarilv within our power to attain. What are the elements which compose our governmental agen cies executive, legislative and ad ministrative including those in struments of government which o? late years have become more and more numerous and important i. e., Commissions and Boards?

There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deazness is xauaed by an in lamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling gound or im perfect hearing, and when it Is entirely closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing wiit .be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an Inflamed condition of the mucoua sur faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.
