DO YOU ENJOY EATING Or Doea Everything You Eat Distress You? Experts declare that the reason Stomach disorders aro so common In this country Is duo to hasty and careless habits of eating. Stomach troubles and run-down conditions also initially go together. John Llnd, of Oneonta, N. Y., says:' "I have boon troubled with a bad Btomach trouble for fifteen years, and became so weuk that I could hardly walk or do any work. My appetlto ?was very poor, and It seemed Impos sible to get any rollef. Since taking two bottles of Vlnol I find that It haa already made a remarkable Improve ment In my health; my digestion hi much stronger, and I have gained la weight" Vlnol makes weak stomachs strong because it strengthens and tones up the weakened, tired and overtaxed nerves of the digestive organs. Vlnol to easily Assimilated by tho weakest stomachs, and la delicious to the taste. Try a bottle of Vlnol with the understanding that ^our money will be returned. It It does not help you.

DEFINES PEOPLE'S DUTY, First Obligation of Law Is to Keep So ciety Sound by Sanitary and Purs Focd Statutes and Measures Deter mining Conditions of Labor?T.ask Not Merely One of Politics. Washington. March 4.?The Inaugural address of President Woodrow Wilson Is as follows: Th?le bus been n change of govern ment. It began two years ugo. when the bouse of representatives became Democratic by u decisive majority. It IlilH now been completed. The senate about to assemble will also be Demo cratic. The ofllces of president and vice president have' been put Into the hands of Democrats. What does the change mean? That Is the question that Is uppermost iu our minds today. That Is the quest ion I am going to try to answer. In order. If I may. to Inter pret the occasion. it means much more than the mere success of n pur.y. The success of a party menus little except when the nation Is using that party for n large and definite purpose. No one can nils take the purpose for which the nation now seeks to use the Democratic party. It seeks to use it to Interpret a change In its own plans and point of view. Some old things with which we bad grown familiar and which had begun to creep Into the very bablt of our thought and of our lives have altered their aspect as we have latterly looked critically upon them with fresh, awak ened eyes; have dropped their disguises and shown themselves alien and sin ister. Some new things as we look frankly upon them, willing to compre hend their real character, have come to assume the aspect of things long be lieved in and familiar, stuff of our own convictions. Wo have been refreshed by a new insight Into our own life. Our Model Government. We see that In many things life Is very great. It is Incomparably great in its material aspects, in its body of wealth, in the diversity and sweep of Its energy, iu the Industries which have been conceived and built up by the genius of Individual men und the lim itless enterprise of groups of men. it is great also, very great. In its moral force ' Nowhere else In the world have noble men and women exhibited In more striking forms the beauty and the energy of sympathy and helpful ness and counsel In their efforts t>> rec tify wrong, alleviate suffering and set the weak In the way of strength and hope. We have built up. moreover, a great system of government, which bus stood through a long age as in many respects n model for those who seek to set liberty upon foundations that will endure against fortuitous change, against storm and accident. Our life contains every great thing and contains It in rich abundance. Hut the evil has come with the good, and much tine gold tins been corroded. With riches has come Inexcusable waste. Wo have squandered a great part of what we might have used and have not stopped to conserve the ex ceeding bounty of nature without which our genius for enterprise would have been worthless und Impotent, scorning to he careful, shamefully prodigal as well as admirably efficient. We have been proud of our Industrial achievements, but we have not hith erto stopped thoughtfully enough to count the human cost, the cost of lives snuffed out. of energies overtaxed ami broken, the fearful physical and splr Itunl cost to the men and women and children upon whom the dead weight and burden of it all bus fallen pitiless ly the years through. The gronus and agony of it all had not yet reached our ears, the solemn, moving under tone of our life, coming up out of tho | mlnea and factories and out of every home where the struggle bod its inti mate and familiar seat. With the great government went many deep se cret things which we too long delayed to look into and scrutinize with can did, fearless eyes. The great govern ment wo loved has too often been made use of for private and seltlsb purposes, and those who used it hud forgotten the people. Duty of Americans Outlined. At Inst a vision tins been vouchsafed us of our life as a whole. We see the bad with tbe good, the debased and decadent with the sound and vital. With this vision we approach new af fairs. Our duty Is to cleanse, to re consider, to restore, to correct the evil without impairing tbe good, to ptlfifj and humanize every process of our common life without weakening or sentimentalizing it. There has been something crude and heartless and un feeling In our bast.- to succeed and l>e great. Our thought baa been. "Let ev ery man look out for himself; let ev ery generation look out for itself." wtiile wo reared giant machinery which made it Impossible that any but those who stood at tho levers of control should have a chanco to look out for themselves. We bod not forgotten out morals. We remembered well enough that wi had set up a policy wblcb was meant to serve tbe humblest as well as the most powerful, with an eye single to the standards of Justice ?i>d fair piny, and remembered It with pride. I ? - -' Ruft we were very heedless and In ? hurry to be great We have come now to the aober sec ond thought The scales of heedless ness buve f?llen from our eyes. We have made up our minds to square ev ery process of our national life agnln with the Standards we ho proudly set up at the beginning and have always carried at our hearts. Our work is a work of restoration. Things to Bo Accomplished. We have Itemized with some degree ff particularity the things that ought to be altered, and here are some of the chief items: A tariff which cuts us otT from our proper part in the commercu of the world, violates the Just princi ples of taxation and makes the govern ment a facile- instrument In the bands of private interests; u bankiug and cur rency system based upon the necessity of the government to sell Its bonds tlfty years ago and perfectly adapted to con centrating cash and restricting credits; an industrial system which, tuke it ou all its sides, financial as well as ad ministrative, holds capital in lendiug strings, restricts the liberties and lim its the opportunities of labor and ex ploits without renewing or conserving the natural resources of the country; a body of agricultural activities never yet given the elllclency of greut busi ness undertakings or served as It should be through the Instrumentality of science taken directly to the farm or afforded the facilities of credit best suited to its practical needs; water courses undeveloped, waste places un reclaimed, forests unteuded, fast dis appearing without plan or prospect of renewal unregarded waste heaps nt every mine. We have studied aa per haps no other nation has the most ef fective means of production, but we have not studied cost or economy as we should either as organizers of In dustry, as statesmen or as Individuals. Society's Duty to Itself. Nor have we studied und perfected tho means by which government may be put at the service of numanity lu safeguarding the health of the nation, the health of Its men and its women and its children, us well as their rights In the struggle for existence. This is no sentimental duty. The tlrm basis of government is Justice, uot pity. These are matters of justice. There can be no equality or opportunity, the first essential of Justice in the body politic, if men and women and children be not shielded In their lives, their very vitality, from the consequences of great industrial and social processes which they cannot alter, control or singly cope with. Society must see to It that it does not Itself crush or weaken or damage its own constituent parts. The first duty of law is to keep souud the society it serves. Sanitary laws, pure food laws and Inws determining con ditions of labor which individuals are powerless to determine for themselves are Intimate parts of the very busi ness of justice and legal' eltlciency. These are some of the things we ought to do and not leave the others undone, the old fashioned, never to be neglected, fnnihi mental safeguarding of property and of individual right. This is the high enterprise of the new day: To lift everything that concerns our life tis a nation to the light that shines from the hearth lire of every man's conscience und vision of the right, it Is inconceivable we should do this as partisans; It Is Inconceivable we should do it in Ignorance of the facts as they are or In blind haste. We shall restore, not destroy. We shall deal with our economic system as it Is and as it may be modified, not as it might be If we had a clean sheet of paper to write upon, and step by step wo shall make it what It should be In the spirit of those who question their own wisdom and seek counsel and knowledge, not shallow self satisfac tion or the excitement of excursions whither they cannot toll. Justice, and ouly Justice, shall always be our motto. Task Not Merely One of Politics. And yet It will be no cool process of mere science. The nation has been deeply stirred?stirred by a solemn pas sion, stirred by the knowledge of wrong, of Ideals lost, of government too often debauched and made an in strument of evil. The feelings with which we face this new nge of right aud opportunity sweep ncross our heartstrings like some air out of God's own presence, where Justice and mercy I are reconciled and the Judge and the j brother are one. Wo know our task to be no mere task of politics, but a task which shall search us through and through, whether we be able to under stand our time and tho need of our people, whether we be Indeed their spokesmen and Interpreters, whether we have the pure heart to comprehend and the rectified will to choose our high course of action. This Is not a day of triumph: it is 9 day of dedication. Here muster not the forces of party, but the forces of humanity. Men's hearts wait upon un; men's lives bung in the balance:mon's hopes call upon ns to sny what we will do Who shall live lip to the great trust? Who dares fall to try? I sum mon nil honest men. nil patriotic,'all forward looking men. to my side. God helping tue, I will not fall them If they will but Counsel and sustain me. The Drama of London's Fog.
