WEDNESDAY, FEB. 27, 1919 “It will take patriotism, bu. a high er type of patriotism than was requir ed in thfc delirium cf war, to float .’.he Fifth Liberty Loan," says Carter Glass, Secretary of the Tre.it.ury. Mr. Glass refuses to beblieve ’.hat this one remaining and most important piece of war work should be dealt with as a cold blooded proposition on ly—merely as an investment. On the other hand, he believes 'that the spirit of the American nation will taka care of the Fifth Liberty Loan as' it did 'the four preceding loans. Answering the question as to w’ shill he the basis of the appeal of t 1 approaching loan, \yhether patriotism or its imveu.meut feature, Mr. Giasr says: “It is inconceivable folly to suppose that this Government or any other Government, may, under the circum stances, float a bond Issue of $6,000. 000,000 without appealing to From Other Columns W. H. TAFT, AMERICAN If William Howard Taft keeps head ed in the same direction he is going he is apt to discover that the Amerl can people regard him in much high or esteem than he had occasion once upon a time, when he watched elec tion returns with hope that gave way to anxiety and then to resignations, to believe. As a matter of fact, the indications are that if Mr. Taft contin ues to grow in the graces of the Am eric-an people for the next few months as he has for some time past —and it looks as though he is destin ed to make even better progress in this direction—he cannot very we-’ escape being nominated for the nmot dency by some one of the political nart'es which will be casting about for a standard bearer. Ameriotnisrti is r«ing to appeal mighty strongly to the American peo pie in the next nresidentlal campaign and there is nothing in the world the matter with Mr. Taft’s Americanism, whatever else may be said about rue 'armer occupant of the White House Vhjs fact became impressively evi dent the other day when Mr. Taft, with utter disregard for his own poll *ieal affiliations and those of certain Republican obstructionists and reac tionaries, said very boldly: “The gentlemen in the senate who are setting out to defeat this Teague of nations axe those that I would not trust overnight.” It Isnt often that Mr. Taft speaks so boldlv or so aggressively. He has usually bad a softer way of going about things. We all remember the Taft smile. It made him friends ra ther than enemies. He was always rdacid, even tempered, complacent. Folks complained some times that he '-as soft. And maybe he was. But - r me things have happened to ger 'iis patriotic dander up. He has prov en tha* his country and the Ideals which his country represent are near or to is honest, old heart than the party of which he was once the tltu ■ar head. When men high in the councils of that party aim their vie 'ous and unworthy attacks upon the greatest movement ever attempted in world politics, even if it has been ’aunclted largely through the nersen j nllty of a Democratic president, and ‘ attempt to stand between the world "nd a recurrence of war. hedoesn'f hesitate to step on their toes Moreover, Mr. Taft is broad enough and big enough and American enough to see and to say: “This is not a political question.

E. Lawter, df 116 Williams street, Spartanburg, in a statement endorsing “The Master Medicine.” “I took Taniac for those troubles,’ continued Mrs Lawter. “I would roll and tumble for hours at night and my nerve, were so bad I was miserable all the time. I scarcely ate anything and whal 1 did felt like bricks in my Stomach and I had a choking feeling a/ftei? meals. My heart fluttered a great deal, too. “Finally I decided to try Taniac, though 1 had but lirtle faith in it, for ko many other remedies failed to help me. But now, thanks to Taniac, I am net bothered any more with stomach trouble. I feel a great deal better in every way and my nerves aro strong er and Blearier. Neither do I have palpitation of the hearts any more.

For Sale Bad for the Farmer It is reported that a great effort is being made to prevent the repeal of the so called “daylight saving” law through the bombardment of the Sen ate with telegrams this week.

He also telle vis that Indigestion is caused by Hy per acidity, meaning, there is an ex cess of hydrochloric acid in the atom ach which prevents complete diges tion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lum py misery in the chest, we belch up gas, we eructate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence, water brash or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar macy four ounces of Jad SaHs and take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa ter before breakfast and drink while it is effervescing and furthermore, to continue this for a week. While re lief follows the first dose, it is impor tant to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus pro mote a free flow of pure digestive juices. .Tad Salts is inexpensive and Is made from the acid of grapes and lem WANTED—Young lady wishes a po| sition as clerk have had experience j- as clerk in store.
