The Call Now Is to Duty.
Moro regrettable, in the estimation
of the Democratic New York World,
tliun uny political chunges that have
taken pnco is the spirit of partisan
ship which has been awakened, and
for this the; President cannot be held
blameless. The World said at the
time, and it says now, thut his inter
ference with the nomination and elec
tion of members of Congress in var
ious states whs unwise and calculated
to defeat 'the very purpose that he
wished to promote. Americans have
always responded to true White House
leadership, but they have just as con
sistently resented White Houro intrus
ion upon their lucal affuirs. There
never should be a repetition of this
error.
As wo can imagine nothing worse
for the country in its present situation
than a continuation, of the venomous
partisanship recently in evidence, we
must entreat Democrats as well as
Republicans to remember that 'the in
terests at stake transcend in Import
ance the welfare of any political orga
nisation or the future of any politician.
The call today is to duty. Those who
give closest heed to that summons will
have the fewest reasons for regret
nnd apology hereafter.
To all such wo commend this pnss
.igo from a short speech by Abraham
Lincoln a few days afcer tlio Presi
dential contest in 1884 :
"Tho strife of this election is but
human nature practically applied to
the, facts of the ease. What has oc-J
rcurrcd in this caso must ever recur in
similar enscs. Human nature will not
change. In any future groat national
trial, compared with the men of this
we shall have ns weak as strong, as
silly and as wise, as bad nnd as good.
Let us therefore study the incidents
of this ns philosophy to learn widom
from, nnd none of them as wrongs Is
be avenged." '
If it ia human nature, irritable or
provocation, to go to extremes of pas
sion und excitement, so it ia human
nature, on returning soberly to reason,
to correct its errors and reject evil
counsels. With unlimited faith in the
patriotism and good senso of tho
American people, without regard to
party, we look for n truce at Washing
ton that will Inst nt least until pen.c
has been established abroad.
Compensation Plan Re
places Pensions.
Modern substitutes for pensions
have been p'rovided by the government
for injured soldiers or for the depend
ents of soldiers killed in the service.
The Injury Division ;of the Informa
tion nnd Education Service, Depart
ment of Labor, is collecting informa
tion for soldiers and their relatives in
rogard to the provision 'that will Ik
made for them.
. The United States provides compen
sation to Injured soldiers or to tho de
pendents of soldiers who arc killed, in
addition to all allotments, family al
lowances, and war-risk insurance.!
This compensation is entirely distinct
from government insurance prole '
tion, and applies to officers and men !
alike, without regard to rank or pav.
It applies to total or partial dinabili y '
and to death Incurred in the lino of
duty. .
In case of death the soldier's widow,
children, or dependent parents are en
titled to compensation. If the dis
ability is partial the sum paid is based
upon the percentage due for total dis
ability und upon the reduction in earn
ing power. If total tho amount of
compensation varies from .'10 to !'1):
n month, depending on tile size of the j
disabled man's family.
In certain specific cases, such ns the
loss of both 'hands or both feet, m
blindness in both eyes, or in the ease
of -bosoming permanently bedridden
from causes occurring in the line of
duty, compensation is payable at the
rate of $100 a month.
In the event of death compensation
ranges from to $7."i n month, ac
cording to the number and relation of
the soldier's dependents. Tho widow,
children, and dependent parents of
men in the service are the only ones
entitled to compensation. Th-j vidow
shall receive compensation until her
remarriage, und children to the r.ge

, There, that is what J have been
looking for the past six months now
lor my sister," said Mrs. Vi Legault,
wiiii ri-Hiuea ai zii ros Street, Spo
l.nne, Wash., pointing; to the big Tun-
lac display in Murgittroyd's Drug
oiore, recently.
"My sister's health has broken
down," Mrs. Leerault continued "nn,! 1
firmly!" believe Tanlac will fix her up
u did me three years ago.
"Before I took it I was suffering
1 1 om u complication ot ailments which
luid resulted In nervous prostration.
Jiy troubles all started from a bad
stomach and I was in a pitiable con
mtion. Everything I ate would sour
using me such awful pains in the
pit of my stomach that I could hardly
i m.iihi, u. jiy nerves were in bad
I shape, I was badly constipated and
even now' I hate to think of the ter
rible headaches I had. I also suf
fered from weakness and pains in
my right sido, which was the worst
kind of torture. Electrical treatment
and everything else was tried on me,
except an operation, which I refused
to stand for, but nothing did me any
good. I had always weighed around
one. hundred and forty-eight pounds,
but my sufferln'g pulled me. down to
rne hundred nnd twelve, nnd I was
scarcely more than a frame, 1 really
hall -no desire to live 'an- my case
seemed to be hopeless.
'"Well, some wonderful things hap
pen in this world, and my recovery
was one of them. I picked up a pa
per one day in Detroit, Michigan,
where I was living at the time, and
read a Tanlac testimonial given by a'
lady who lived but a short distance
from me, and right then I decided to
try lanlac. The results I obtained
are nothing less than remarkable. My
appetite soon came back, my stomach
got so I. could eat and digest my food
and evory one of my troubles grad
ually left, and the first thing I knew.
I was regaining my lost weight and
strength. After using five bottles
of Tanlac I found that J had gone
up to one hundred and fifty-two
pounds actually gaining forty
noundu mnkintr seven nnnnilct mnr
than I had ever weighed before. And
although it has been nearly three
years now since Tanlac restored me, I
have never been bothered with any
of my old trouhles to this good dny,
and I have held my weight, always
weighing around one hundred artd fif
ty pounds. So you can see why I have
been so anxfSus to find Tanlac for
my sister. I am going to let her know
Tight away where she can get it. I
am glad to give this statement, for
the best way I know to pay the debt
of gratitude I owe Tanlac is to tell
others how it has made life worth liv
ing for me."
