Judge Sease's Charge to Jurors.
Mr Foreman and Gentlemen:
Of course in the minds of all of us
and in the minds of all patriotic citizens
in the great struggle now go
ing on for democracy?what prog
ress we are now making in the waj
of man power?there are very fe^
of us that realize the seriousness of
this struggle ana wnai 11 means u
we lose and what it means if th<
world will win. Thank God we shal
win ,but it's going to require th<
performance of duty and undertak
ing of hardships we had not dreamed
of. I am not a pessimist, but it wil!
take very nearly every man of the
American nation to make the worlc
safe for democracy. When the ordei
went out for ten heatless Monday.'
there were those who howled anc
kicked and criticised,but.gentlemen
that was only a drop in the bucket
of what we shall have to endure ir
the next two or three years, for thi
war is going to last that long. It i.?
well for us to make up our minds tc
sacrifice, and endure the hardships
we must undergo, and not talk ol
the high prices of things or what
they will reach.
" - ? -?* ?~
it is tne auty uj evciy man, ix ??
speaks of this war at aH, to realize
its extent and the fact that it is t
righteous war and so talk it. Anj
man who criticises the righteousnes*
of this war and claims it is unright
eous is a traitor,because he is aidinj
the enemy. If there ever was t
righeous cause this is one, because
it is in self-defense and in defense ol
principles that our forefather!
fought for over a hundred years ag<
to establish a free democratic coun
try. There are now seventeen king!
in exile, which is apparently th<
handwriting on the wall, and it oc
curs that men should never be sub
ject to other men to their detrimem
and downfall. But in order to wii
the glorious victory, not only foi
America but for the entire world
this nation must sacrifice.
We must read our history anew
- - - A 1 3
read of the three or lour great ie?u
ers that turned the tide againsi
Great Britain over 140 years ago
Marion and Sumter?think of the
hardships that they and other mer
went through with fighting for youi
own country?your own beloved
State. Think of Washington and hi:
men at Valley Forge. The fight ther
and there was a struggle betweer
autocracy and kings on the one hanc
and a free people and manhood or
the other. It has been 140 years 01
so ago,which seems a long time, but
it was a day in the history of the
world?in the history of peoples.
Republican and demacratic forms
of government are still on trial. It
has been 140 years ago since the first
great step was taken toward the liberation
of the peoples of the world,
and what is 140 years to thousands
and thousands of years? I say, gentlemen,
our minds must necessarily
run,our work must necessarily turn,
to the great struggle. The man who
dares criticism against the righteousness
of this cause is nearing the
point where he is a traitor to hie
country. The time will come,and is
already here now, when people who
have been nourished and fed and
made wealthy in this beloved land oi
liberty who are in favor of the enemy
will be considered traitors and

squad. The boys need the encouragement
of the statesman to show them
that this is a righteous war and they
are fighting for a noble cause, and
lead them to believe such, otherwise
we can't expect to win them on the
part of patriotism.

PAW-PAWj
For the Stomach
3 Powerful Forces in 1
More than 20 years ago Paw-PawTonic
was given to the public. Since
then it has been improved upon by'
the addition of Nux and Iron, and;
today stands out pre-eminently as the
best, the safest and most reliable
remedy for stomach troubles, disordered
nerves and impure blood.
[RONIZED PAW-PAW IS NOT A
CURE-ALL
?it is prepared just for what we say i
and no more.
Don't trifle with your health, if,
you need some remedy take a tried i
ane, which for nearly a quarter of a i
lentury has stood the test of time, j
No man or woman is equipped for
noble deeds who is a dyspeptic, or
ivho is suffering from any form of
nervousness, and anaemic conditions
af the blood.
Indigestion, stomach troubles and
impure blood weaken our minds,
Jwarf our capabilities and limit our
possibilities.
Ironized Paw-Paw Remedy will do
more to brighten the world, to dispell
gloom, to make happy homes
and ctrnnir irnn hndies. than all the
medicines that have ever been compounded.
The evidence we are publishing
every day should be conclusive
proof.
A system that is overworked or
run down requires a harmless stimulant.
Ironized Paw-Paw Tonic lifts
and holds you. Your druggist probably
keeps it; but if he doesn't, it is
sold at Scott Drug Co.
Ironized Paw-Paw, price $1.00
