We have to take the world as it is and not as we think it ought to be, but that need not interfere with our efforts to bring the world up to our ideal. The journey of life is toilsome enough at its best but how much of its toilsomeness would be avoided if people would not imagine difficulties in the path that do not exist. When one considers the influence a woman has in the home life to soften it and make it cheerful and pure, she should be encouraged by loving wcrd and deed on the part of her husband and children. When business men and corpora tions are tempted to make money dishonestly they.would do well to follow the example of the old Scotch merchant who wrote in his brass bound, leather covered ledger, "O Lord, keep me and this buik hones'.. ' President Taft's corporation tax will not help the people much nor take much from the corporation in the way of taxes. It will allow the corporations to extract one dollar from your pocket, of which loot the Government wjil get one cent. It will work admirably for the big cor porations. Butter from kerosene is one of the latest by-products promised by the Standard Oil, at least so it is said. If it should prove true and vegetar ianism also replace the ordinary diet of most people, the cow will ul timately find its vocation gone. But as yet farmers show no disposition to sell their herds at a sacrifice and the price of butter and beef steadily rises. Most of the Union Veterans in the Northern States vote the Repub lican ticket, imaging that the Re publicans of today stand for the pol icies and ideals advocated by Lin coln. In this they are mistaken. The very predatory interests Lincoln feared and condemned are in control of the Republican party, and they use it to plunder the masses of the people for their own benefit. The Appeal to Reason says "the people are so easily fooled. They enjoy being fooled and they sternly resent any interference with their privilege of being fooled, and now to be consistent they ought to s^nd res olutions of thanks to Wickersham for apologising to the Beef Trust and humbly petition Taft to put on another farce to foci them and make them cheer madly for being the g.eatest fools on earth." Not for a fraction but for the state, is a maxim that will apply as well to a community as to a com monwealth. 'Many tr.wns have bun ruined or seriously injured because of faction feeling. Any place can be built up and tua'de to prosper when its citizens intelligently work togeth er for its welfare. On the other hand the natural advantages which a place may po*P?ti .v.- of'^n neu tralized by a lack of harmony and public spirit. Affairs in Germany show that the cause of responsible government is making headway. Prince Von Bue low .resigned because of an adverse v e in the legislature, and the new chancellor, Bethmann-Hollewig, is said to be a liberal and sympathetic with the working classes. Thus surely if slowly political reforms make headway in Germany as in every land. Temporary reaction may occur occassionally but nothing can permanently withstand the cause of popular government. Prof. Osier, who was alleged to have said that every man reaching the age of si>:ty should be rlorof >rm ed because he was no more use to the world, has himself recently reached the fatal age. If he ever did say it he his evidently changed hi* mind fi r he shows no disposition to resign hh office. As a matter of fact age and us.-fullness are frequently not *?o much a question of years as of dispositoin. Some men are old at forty with usefullness greatly Im paired while others do their best work late in life. A young woman at a fashionable summer resort was attractive in per sonal appearance but that was more offset by a lawlessness ami disregard of parental control. So pronouueed were these failings that the girl made herself obnoxious to all. In commenting upon her behavior her mother said, 'she always had her own way." Thai remark explained the whale case. Nothing sooner spoils a child than to lei it have its own way in everything. A wise, firm and loving exercise of parental authority is what every home needs. Surviving Union Veterans. According to an estimate prepared by tbe record and pension office in 1896, and again reviewed in 1905, by the military secretary of the war de partment and accepted as the most accurate estimate possible, the prob able number of individual Federal soldiers alive at the end of the civil war was 1,652,173, excluding tho deserters. The survivors in 1909 is put down at 665,832. The calculation that in 1909 there are still 665,S32 surviving out of a total of 1,652,173 who were living in 1865, forty-four years ago seems buoyant, to say the least. It is> not easily conceivable that the average age of the recruits enlisted in IS61 could have been lest than twenty years. It was perhaps considerably more; but, accepting that basis, the average age of the purvivors> to day who enlisted in 1861 must be at least sixty-eight, and of the surviv ors who enlisted in 1864 at least sixty-five. That is a mighty fine re cord for nearly 700,000 out of a little over 1,500,000 of men taken haphazard in the first place and en rolled without great severity of phy sical examination. We think we may regard the es timate of this war department mem orandum without any great amount of hesitation. Let us add to the 1,652,173 survivors in 1865 the 359,528 who are known -Ko have died during the four years of hos tilities and so reach the grand total of 2,011,701 for the honor roll of the civil war. The survivors of the Union ArmJ at this time number more than the number of soldiers enrolled by the Confederacy from the first to the last of the war. This shows what odds the South had to contend with on the field of battle, to say nothing of the vast resources of the North in provisions and war supplies of every kind. The fact that forty-four years after the great struggle the veterans of the Union armies numbers more than all the men that composed the Southern armies from first to last is a silent but eloquent tribute to the bravery of the Confederate soldier. We would like to know how many of the Confederate soldiers are still in the flesh. As the years go by the grim old reaper gets busier and bus ier, and the ranks of the noble heroes who followed the immortal Lee and other nob'e chieftans grows thiner and thiner. Soon the roll will be called and none of the grandest armies that ever trod the earth will be left to answer to his name. The passing of the old Veterans makes us feel sad. Busting the Trusts. During the incumbency of one Theodore Roosevelt in the presidency we use to hear a great deal about trust busting. One of t.le trusts that he seemed to have a special grudge against was the Beef Trust. Special attorneys were empioyel {:t a great expense and ilia boast was made that the Beef Trust would soon be laid low bylhe mighty powers of the federal administration. The end has come at last and it is just as we expected and just as it must have beeu. Attorney General Wicker sham, the Wall Street lawyer, has put a quietus on the prosecution. A Washington correspondent says "by one stroke of the pen George W. Wickersham, formerly personal at torney for J. P. Morgan and partner of Brother Henry Taft, Wall Street, New York, and uow attorney general of the United States, has brought to naught months of patient work in Beef Trust rebate cases." According to this correspondent Wickersham, tho attorney general and trust law yer, ended the cases in a manner pe culiar refreshing in its frankness and directness. He did not beat around the bush. As a trust lawyer in a trust administration he treated the Beef Trust as it deserves to be treated in the house of its friends. Wickersham simply wrote a let ter -to the Beef Trust firms saying that he knew they intended to do no wrong and that no good could come by prosecuting them in the courts. This is the easiest and most convenient method of ending the Beef Trust cases-. Roosevelt swoop ed down ui)on them in one of his justly celebrated San Juan hill charges witli plumes flying and trumpets braying, and all the world applauding, and now the whole fiasco ends by Wickersham apologizing on behalf of the administration and ask ing the Beef Trust to excuse the gov ernment for what was done before the election to fool the people into voting for four more years of trust administratin. Some Common Mistake;. That there are a good many mis takes in life everyone will admit. Some people have tried to number them imt probably have not. succeed ed to their satisfaction. Here ave some Oi the most common the mca ti>:i cf which may lead to so:ua rec iincdti'cn: It is a great mistake 'o .???i our standard of right and wrung, and judge people according ly; to expect niity of .)?/> ?'<?>'.. in this world; to measure the en joyment of others by our own: to look tor judgment and experience in youth; to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied; not to relieve the needs of others who need relief as far as lies in oar j low er; to expect to understand every thing and to undervalue what we cannot understand. In discussing the liquor question it would be well to remember that other people can differ with you on it and bo just as honest as you are. There are people who believe that the dispensary law enforced as it is in this county is a better temperance measure than the so-called prohibi tion that they have in many of the counties. Some people who hold this view are better prohibitionists really that some of those who pro claim from the housetops that they Are prohibitionists and want a man hanged if he differs with them to the slightest degree on the liquor ques tion. We saw this amply illustrated a short time ago. We heard a man abusing another because he held that the dispensary was a better way of contrasting the liquor question than prohibition. Now this so-called prohibitionist is a steady drinker. He never comes to town but what he gets some colored brother to buy him several bottles' of beer and hide it out where he can find it and drink it. The other man is a total ab stainer. Now, which of these two men is the best prohibitionist? Peo ple should sweep before their own doors before they worry about the trash of their neighbors. NOTICE OF ELECTION.

Girl of Six Months had Fearful Attack of Eczema?Spread All Over Her Face and Eyes Began to Swell-Scratched -Till Blood Came?Relieved in a Night and CURED BY CUTICURA AFTER LONG SUFFERING "When my little girl was six months old I noticed small red spots on her y^r^-^. right cheek. I did not jZ^-"11^ pay any attention to v _ \V them but finally the spots grew so large that I senL for the dcc ? tor who said it was ringworm. He pre scribed an ointment which I used fcr two weeks, but instead of helping the eruption, the ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to second doctor who after examining the baby said it was eczema. He also gave me an ointment which did not help either. The disease in the meantime spread all ove?- the face and the eyes began to swell. 1 became very anxious. The itching grew intolerable. I had to tie the baby's hands to the cradle to prevent her scratching. The cheeks were covered with blood and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doc tors from September to December, but they were unable to cure the baby. I paid out from twenty to thirty dollars without relief. "One of my friends told me of the Cuticura Remedies and I Bont at once for a set which I began to use that even ing. The next morning the baby's face was all white instead of red and vou can imagine how surprised I was. 1 cannot find words enough to praise Cuticura and I do not know what would have become of my baby only for it. I used the Cuticura Remedies until the eczema entirely disappeared. The child is now three years old and quite well. I used three cakes of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment, and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent and I never use any other soap. I always recommend them whenever there is a chance for doing so. I will send you one of her pictures which she had taken just after she was healed. Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, la., July 13, VMS."

Everyone is subject to indigis tion. Stomach derangement follows stomach abuse, just as naturally and just as surely as a sound and healthy stomach results upon the taking of Kodol.
