THE ASTORIAX PUBLISHING CO., ; PL'niTT AND EXPANSION. If the partisans -and the yellow re porters At St. Louis expected a mess of political doctrines, baby talk and other expressions which would admit of sen tational distortion in the speech of President Roosevelt at the dedication of the Louisiana Purchase exposition yesterday they were dsappolnted. The speech not sensational, but it con tains niuch of sincere counsel and ad monition as well as being historically of absorbing interest. Only In the mat ter of expansion does the president deal with a subject which might arouse contradictory crtielsrn among the an tis. Expansion, however. Is so obviously linked with the Louisiana purchase Idea that the subject could not have been avoided, and, since the celebration of the centennial of that event implies tbe profoundest approval on the part of the nation, he could not have done otherwise than to give it a deserving prominence, which he accomplished In a masterly manner though with con servatism and as a. preface to a pero lation exhorting to civic and personal virtue rather than as a national goal. Millions of people will heartily appre ciate these words of Mr. Roosevelt: 'The work of expansion was by far tbe greatest work of our people during the years that intervened between the adoption of the constitution and the outbreak of the Civil war. There were other questions of real manifest import ance, and there were many which at the time seemed such to those engaged in answering them; but the greatest feat of our fort-fathers of those gen erations was the deed of the Men, who, with pack train, or wagon train, on horseback, on foot, or by boat jpon the waters, pushed the frontier f.vir westward across the continent" While the speaker avoided any refer ence to our foreign acquisitions, It Is easy and permissable to draw the in ference that the present day reaching out for that which Is necessary and useful to us as a world power is equal ly as justifiable as were the acts of our forefathers, who pushed the borders of our nation as far as it was possible for them to reach. But, obvious m Is the right of ex pansion when It is both expedient and just, it is, like all other problems of public and private life subservient to the development of the high and noble1 in civil and individual life. If the pres dent lauds the strenuous endeavors which have built und preserved our na tion, he not the less pleads for the ob servance of those principles and the en couragement of those virtues which de velop the Intellect and the soul and make for peace harmony and good will. This will appease those who have seen in his recent utterances what they thought an undue tendency to enlarge qpon vigor of body and perseverance In MAOTfOID ROOFING 7Ji 2esf low xrtceet i : nr i i mmt i ii For ill climates; heat, cold, rain, gJtci, fume and Tire do not affect It. s Comet in roll ready for laying.

Poselbly other publlo spekcrs would leave a -mora lasting monument to their unselfishness and genuine patriotism If they unfolded more of their wisdom In efforts to teach a real Interest In the welfare of the people than they will attain by heating atmosphere with bombas'tc oratory or polltt s doctrinal expositions on such occas ions. ' : eousETms. An Interesting phvsktfoKlcal study is presented In the death of a prominent French woman and the illness of a num her of others from wearing the latest fashion In corsets, ' says the Everett Record. The physicians state that the cramp lni device nt the lower end of the cor set presses upon the abdomen and ren ders perfect digestion Impossible. And no wond;r! Have ybu noticed the fashion cuts lately? They present to your startled eye a strange creature, ot exorouam bust, a deep-slanting waist line, and as stomachless as a- snake. Dame Fashion has deliberately chop ped the stomach off of the women, and proposes that they shall live without eating, if surface indications tell the truth. But neither death nor newspaper preachments will prevent most women from following the mode. If the fash ionable woman of Paris dies from cor- setitis, the fashionable women of this country will die also, for they must live up to the style. ONE WORD IN TIME. Is Better Than Two Afterwards A Chance to Profit by an Astoria Man's Experience. It is a strange thing how people will put away an opportunity until too late; It is only little things that go to make up our every day existence; the trouble is we don't pay sufficient attention to them. Backache is a little thing some times It comjs after a hard day's work or a slight cold. It will poss off you say; it is only the result of overtaxing my back; It Isn't the fault of your back but your kidneys. The exertion or straining has interfered with their del icate mechanicism. Tou call it back ache, but it really la kldneyache. If the kidneys are not relieved chronic dls orders set In and that Is where the "little thing" should not be passed over. An Astoria man has learned to appre ciate what delay means. W. R. Mcintosh whose place of resi dence is at 593 Harrison avenue, says: "For years I suffered very much from lameness and soreness across the small of my back. To turn In bed gave me painful twinges and when I was not working but simply standing around there was a constant aching over my! hips. The kidney secretions gave me no end of trouble. I often thought I had gravel, so painful were the secre tions in passing. I read about Doan's Kidney Pills and got a box at Charles Rogers' drug store on Commercial St. On taking them I soon noticed an Im provement In my condition and the pain aero my back was soon wonder fully relieved Though I did not take Doan's kidney pills as regularly as I should have done ,they did me a great deal of good."
