In Chicago, the other day a mur derer made the proud boast that he would never stay in jail. He didn't. He was hung. bind themselves t lend us an ar my' and fleet if we are attacked by Mexico or Japan. And, as a consequence, a number of critics are complaining that we have a gain been victimized. But the one-sidedness of the treaty is only apparent. It may grieve a number of us to see this country assuming any of the obli gations implied in a foreign al liance. Perhaps they are right. Any treaty at all may be a bad policy for the United States But that does not make this treaty unail. France is compelled to main tain a stupendous army to over awe German military ambition, and the resulting financial bur den presses heavily on her econ omic strength. She is forever on guard- and as Germany has a score to settle with us as well as with her, this is fortunate for our selves. Here is where France re ciprocates. Great Britain also. It is well for us that England can pay for a navy which will prevent the Germans from sending warships to sea and incidentally to our own coasts. ; 4 "' ' If Britain and France can pay ithe cost of eternal vigilance, we can hardly call the treaty one-sided. Wilson and Lansing , proba- jbly had a few of these facts in avjmind when they signed it-- Mrs. Burns' Letter Here is a letter xnax if certain to prove of interest to people in this vi cinity, as cases of this sort occur in almost every neighborhood, and peo ple should know what to do in like circumstances: SAVANNAH, Mo., Oct. 12, 1916 "I used a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy about years ago and it cured me of flux (dysentery). I had another attack of the same complaint some three or four years ago and a few doses of this reme dy cured me. I have recommended Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Re medy to dozens of people since I first used it."

RECIPPvOCAL The treaty which we have sign ed with France imposes upon us the duty of sending another A. E.
