C., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 1921 THERE IS A BONE IN THE WAY --0 The world is tired of war. It wants peace-plenty of peace--uiniersal i perpetual peace-or at least a majority of us do. But will we achieve desires? Let us consider. A hungry (log will always make a live for a juicy bone. It is the natur: the brute. It will never change. And some (logs are always hungry.. Na ns are much like dogs. World commerce is their juicy bone. They are all er it. They will never cease to seek it as long as international relations st. There will never be perpetual peace between dogs, beause wherever !re is a bone there is an objet of strife and contention. We doubt if there will ever be universal peace among the nations of',the 'th as long as the commercial bone exists, because strife and contention is .erent in mankind just as it is in tle dog. There is little (iference between the law of human nature and that of t brute creation. Each wants the bone, and sooner or later they will light gain or retain control of it. Universal peace is a beautiful dream and we latly desire to see it. But a dream is a reality only while it lasts. We y rejoice in the peace of today, but today is never a guarantee for the rrow. There is a hone in the way. TwENTY-FI'vE M1ILES AN HOUR --0--- - In Illinois they are trying to pass a law requiring that every automobile equipl)ed with a device that automatically prevents a car from going at a ater rate of speed than twenty-five miles an hour. It would be well if h a law could be enacted in every state. Twenty-five miles is a good rate speed. It is fast enough for any autimobile to go. It is even too rapid some of our drunken motorists. If the driver of a car were headed straight for the grave, and knew it, he uld step on the brake, or pull the emtergency. Twenty-tive miles an hour uld throw him into a panie. lie would want to crawl, to emulate the snail )r, like the jackass, to progress backward. It makes a difference whose ive is ahead.

Mh~ WORN NERVES Nervous troubles, with backache, dizzy spells, queer pains and irregular kidneys; give reason to suspect kidney weakness and to try the remedy that has helped your neighbor. As your neighbor. Mrs. B. F. Louder, Dinken St., Man ning, says: "I had a slight attack of kidney trouble about three years ago which started with smart pains through the small of my back. Head aches bothered me a good deal, and sometimes I was so nervous I couldn't hold anything in my hand. I was bothered with dizzy spells, too, and black specks often came before me, in fact, I was feeling all out of fix. A friend told me about Doan's Kidney Pills and I got some. Doan's not only helped me but cured me entirely of the trouble as I haven't been bothered since." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Louder had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. particularly true under boll weevii conditions. In Mississippi, where this has been tried out more fully than in any other state, the results seeni to prove conclusively that the cotton that is left very close in the drill gives the best yields. This has been the case, both in the delta on the richest kind of land and in the Piedmont sec tions where the soil is not so fertile. Where cotton is given considerable distance a great many of the large vegetative branches are 'produced. These bear no fruit, but they do fur nish plenty of shade to protect Mr. Weevil from the hot sun which he dis likes so much. And when left thick cotton will put oil and mature a great er percentage of early frujt. As men tioned in the beginning, this matter of getting your cotton to mature early is one of the most important factors in producing c;otton under weevil con-' ditions. It would, therefore, seem advisable for us to give this flal a trial in or der to see how it works out locally.

Re plies to questionnaires received from 2,000 retailers, wholesalers and mian ufacturers, it was announced, show that economies are Oeihg effected generally by a reduction in the nun advertising space, greater use ' of budget and cost accounting systems and by a more rigid scrutiny of credits.
