He has quite a wide acquaintance about Xenia and the western part o f the county but promises a campaign that will permit an acquaintance with every voter. Dr, P. C. Marquart of Osborn is an­ nounced as a candidate for county treasurer, The Dr. for seyeral years has served as coroner, ah office that has pome title but from which there is hut little in the way of emoluments.

A schoolboy’s composition furnishes (he following; “The courage o f the Turks }a explained-by the fact that a man with more, than one wife la more willing to faoo .death than If he had only one.'* ____ There is no more perplexing problem in government today than the proper regulation of railroads, and no one more capable of discussing the subject than* those Who finance and manage railroad properties, for experience Is the handmaiden o f understanding and practical wis­ dom the stepping stone to success. Frank Trumbull, Chairman of the Railroad Executive Advisory Committee on Federal Relations, when asked for his Views on the effect o f regulation upon railroad iffvest* meats, said in part: "The desirability of regulation IS, of Course, admitted. Whether the regulation the railroads hare had is id Suc­ cess Is a fair subject for discussion. One thing isfCer, tain—there is at present practically ho appetite for fresh investment in Rail­ roads; that Is for hew. construction o r large improvements. “Now that an efficient banking system has been established by the-Fed­ eral government, a solution of the railway problem, fair alike to investors «nd to the rest o f the public, is first In importance among our national do­ mestic questions. The interdependence of railway owners and employees and o f the shipping ahd traveling publio has been demonstrated so often that 1 dh not attempt here to prove it over again. “Are railroad managers entirely to blame? Suppose you are attempting to administer a railroad in an honest and straightforward way. Most rail­ roads are so managed; there have been some exceptions, just as there have been wicked hankers, farmers who put their best apples in the top of the bar­ rel, and Other people who have made sharp horse trades. But In either of the cases mentioned, does anyone expect the State to penalise the hanking business as a whole or the apple business or the raising o f horses? “ The situation is much as If you had built a hotel in some good sised town, say, twenty or thirty years ago. Probably very few, If any, of the bed­ rooms were provided with bathrooms. Perhaps the furniture consisted of a bad, a bureau, a wash-stand and two or three chairs. Suppose that after In­ vesting your money in that way the State passed a law stipulating that the price per room should not he over two dollars per day, Suppose after that tbs State pissed other laws requiring a certain number of bath rooms, ad­ ditional furnishings, fire escapes,;Screens on all the windows, sanitary ap­ pliances, etc. Perhaps these requirements are reasonable and In the public Merest, but Where would you get the money for new and better hotels under such restrictions of profits? I hare said that the situation of the railroads is much like that, hut the hotel investment is simplicity Itself as compared with tarrestfug in a railroad."

You can’t expect nervous, run down men and women to be cheery, normal beings. They don't get one-hajf out of life that they deserve. But a lot o f people expect it of them. In every community there are a legion o f these men and women. Not really sick, perhaps, but affected with aj nervous, debilitated condition bo that they imagine countless things are wrong with them. They have fre­ quent headaches, are sluggish in mind and in body and they haven’t enough real energy to make them self-reliant in even the little things of life. They haven’t enough rich, red blood to nourish their bodies. Their vital organs are congested. They need something to speed up their assimilation to a normal state, something to bring back old vitality, self-reliance and a cheery view of life. They need something that contains the right nerve food, tonic, invigorator and appetizer which will awake their sleeping energies. Tanlac is designed especially to meet these conditions. For the relief of stomach, kidney and liver ailments and catarrhal affections of the mu­ cous membranes it is believed to be without an equal. It fortifies one to better encounter fatigue/ exposure and the daily grind of life. Tanlac has won the greatest suc­ cess ever scored by a medicine. It could not have done so without super­ lative merit. As the proof of the pudding is in the' eating, so is the proof of Tanlac in the taking. ■ Tanlac how may be obtained in Cedarville at the Ridgway Drug Store where it is being personally intro­ duced and explained.

Asked what Bight represented to his .mind the extreme of desolation, tbs renting agent said; “An unfinished card gams, ,with Jhs cards lying just where the players left them. This morning I came across an Interrupted. game o f hearts fa *. fur­ nished flat that was vacated suddenly. The tenants simply packed their clothes and moved out without a word of explanation to anybody, and as they didn’t owe me a cent it wasn’t my place to run them down. “They had been playing on the din­ ing room table, and the game was about half .finished. Four- hands of. cards thrown down when the gams was anybody’s that knew how to turn a trick worked on the imagination. Why did they stop playing in such a hurry? Why didn’t they stay to fin­ ish the game, or if they couldn't do that, why didn't they scrape the cards together and take them along? Inter­ esting questions, those, and I'd like to have them answered.” C.
