H [ miss much if you far charge to this Lecture \ Great Message Vorthy and Unworthy Leaders of Farmers There are many wrongs to be rightd in this world, many oppressors to urb; but we must fight not in hatred or the wrong-doer but in love for the wronged; not in the hatred of the opiressor but in love for the oppressed ?he leaders whose names are enshrind in the hearts of mankind are those vho have battled in this spirit. Linoln fought slavery not out of hatred or slaveholders but in love for the laves; Lee fought Grant not that he lated the North but that the loved he South. And so in the battle to lecure a juster share of the world's vealth for labor as compared with apital, I do not believe that the Alnighty will let complete success come intil we go forth not to pull down he rich but to lift up the poor. I have been worried a good deal ibout this because our Southern farners often seen inclined to follow eaders with a gospel of hate and uspicion rather than one of love and >rotherhood. If hearing a man's ipeech leaves you hating mankind n nro rotVinv tVion lAtfinr* if Ar f reading an editor's paper leaves 'ou hating mankind more ather than oving it more, that speaker or that editor is not the right sort of man to ollow.

I mow another man whose heart seem< o be right but who has seemingly jrooded over the wrongs our farmers suffer until he has lost faith in .mankind. We need more faith in our fellows, Let's not believe that among the rich ;here are many who are consciously lishonest. They have more than their ihare, but most of them got it by methods recognized by law and not yet condemned by mankind, and the Fault is not that they are bad at heart that they haven't realized that in providing wealth for their families they are condemning other men's families to want. We must fight that such injustice may be corrected, but let us oa lira kotro ooi/1 nftt. in Vl for the rich but i nlove for the poor? in love for the toil worn wives anc mothers who need more comforts, ir love for aspiring boys and girls wh< need a better chance in the world.?

Anaemic, run dwn, nervous? men and women, past twenty-five will find the most economical tonic and medicine for the blood to be just ordinary medicinal iron, highly concentrated. It is not only most economical but strong, a half teaspoonful in a glass of water being the usual dose. Any druggist has Acid Iron Mineral and a fifty-cent or dollar bottle of Acid Iron Mineral will go from two to ten times as far as other weaker iron preparations. In buying Acid Iron Mineral concentrated, the u>er should remember that it is just a natural highly concentrated product and therefore contains no cathartics or laxatives to upset and stimulate the bowels as so many preparations do. We all need more or less iron this time of year to enrich the blood. Another advantage of this natural product is that it helps digestion and appetite and the kidneys show its effects quickly. * If skin is pimply, sallow and pallid, and blood is full of uric acid and other poisons which cause so much pain, rheumatism, etc., the reader should mix a teaspoonf i of ^cid Iron Mineral in a glass f -valor after each meal for a short while. War Produces Industrial Activity in Java. Batnvia, Netherlands East Indies, October 17.?The war seems to have given an impetus to industrial development in Java. One notable instance , is the extension of the Bandoeng qui, nine manufactory, which is to be completed by January next. When the , daily output has been raised to 2,000 . kilograms it is expected that it will , be possible to work the entire cin, chona-bark crop of Java, thus obviat, ing the necessity of shipment to . Europe and effecting an enormous , saving of cargo space. Such new inI dustries as an ink manufactory and . varnish works hav been established.

Meeting of Baseball Leagues Next Tuesday. Proposal to Change the Whole Map of Organized Baseball the Center of Interest. Lousiville, Ky., Nov. 10.? (Correspondence of the Associated Press)? What promises to he the most important meeting of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues in several years will begin next Tuesday and continue three days. Interest will center largely about proposals to change the whole map of organized baseball so far as the minor leagues are concerned, and as the plan will meet opposition the sessions may develop into exciting affairs. In this connection the proposal about which the greatest amount of gossip has centered and which seems likely to produce the bitterest controversy is the plan to form a new organization from parts of the American Association and International League. The proposed league would include Louisville, Indianapolis, Columbus and Toledo from the American AcQncinfinn nntl Tnrnnfn T^nffnlA Newark and Baltimore from the International League. The four clubs in each league which would be left out in the cold under this arrangement are expected to furnish all the opposition to the project of which they are capable. In addition demands will be made, it is said, by interests in the Western, Pacific Coast, Texas, Three I and Central Leagues, the Southern Association and several other organizations for a relignment of thc\- territories. Among the specific changes said to be desired is the addition of Shreveport, a Texas League city, to the Southern Association, and the transfer of Seattle from the Northwestern League to the Pacific League. In addition to these changes others would probably be forced by the success of any effort to form a new comaination from parts of the American Association and International League, otherwise there would be no berths for some of the best minor league towns in the country. Preceding the meeting of the National Association of Professional Baseball leagues, the Western League will hold a meeting tomorrow. The Three I and Central League will also foregatehr. The American Association will hold its annual meeting i ucau<i^( UII wuitii uu^ one ixauuimi Board of Arbitration will he in session. A movement may be launched to suspend operations in several smaller minor leagues until the close of the war. Practically every organization from the big American Association. International and Pacific Coast leagues down, suffered seriously last season. Twentytwo minor leagues j started the season and only about half of them finished. Only five leagues went through without changes in their circuits. The blows to the minors began to fall early in the season. The Virginia league disbanded May 15. Two days later the North Carolina league gave up and three days later saw the finish of the Georgia-Alabama circuit. Early in June the Central-Texas league gave way. The Dixie league and the Northern Association suspended early in July. The Three I league, which had weathered all kinds of conditions for seventeen years, was obliged to suspend on July 8. The Northwestern league held on for a week longer and the Central Association managed to continue until August 7. The Western league was forced to change its alignment and split its _ season in ?juiy to slit ujj new mvcicnt. Even the American Association began to slash expenses early in the season because of the heavy losses due to postponements, resulting from unseasonable weather conditions. Presidents of several minor leagues in the middle west are whole-heartedly in favor of putting baseball in the shelf for a year and possibly two. They favor releasing all players and starting new at the close of the war on a less expensive operating basis. Continuation of present splayes of minor league players, they contend, is out of the question. The unsettled conditions in the minors, however, arc not entirely due to the war in the league, in the opinion of Harry W. Stahlefer, president of the Central league. He believes the small, inexpensive motor car has seriously cut down the attendance in the'smaller cities. "From my study of the situation, I have concluded that the factory worker, who, in former years spent a quarter or fifty cents fo a seat in a baseball park on Sunday, has bought a small automobile which takes his spare money. We usually counted on these patrons for regular Sunday bus iness. But now instead of going to a ball game, he takes his family for a ride in the country. And at presept day prices for necessities after this fellow gets through buying motor supplies, he has nothing left to lavish on baseball.

Inactive bowels are the cause of as much discomfort to children as to older people, and unless the condition is promptly relieved is very apt to develop serious illness. For children there is nothing that will act more easily than the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that is sold in drug stores und-r the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It docs not gripe and 13 free from opiate or narcotic drugs, is pleasant to the taste, and positively effective; children like it and take it readily. If you have never tried this simple, inexpensive remedy, get a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin from your druggist and have it in the house to use the next time any of the children seem out of sorts. A trial bottle can be obtained, free of charge, by writing to Dr. W. B.

Tearney, president, of the Three I leapue, will lead a movement at the national association meetinp for a re-classifieation of all minor leapues and a reduction in the membership of the National Hoard of Arbitration. Tearney wants the membership of the hoard slashed from its present number of eleven to three"The board is unwieldy," he said. "Its members, presidents of leapues and in some instances former presidents who are entirely out of basehall?are scattered all over the country. If an important piece of lepislation resuires immediate action, it sometimes takes weeks for the issue to he submitted to the entire board. "It is my purpose to propose a National Board composed of throe men either to serve with salary or volunteer their services. They could devote their entire time to the minor league situation. The National Commission has hacked me in my recommendation." There are thousands of Americans who would he perfectly willing to have their incomes limited to $100,000 if means could he provided for attaining that maximum. Volunteer gardeners are showing commendable patriotism, but the results might be better if some of them would study the subject of gardening a little more before beginning uperations. FOR nearly thirty years there has been no change in the formula, quality or price of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin The Perfect Laxative In snite of the crreatlv L to ? -*v increased cost of manufacture and heavy war taxes, the formula, quality and price will continue unchanged. | A.U Druggists j 50CtS. <TwoSlze.)$l.()0 IMEBHS' I II " T^d/ !
