It is not interpretation but rejection j that I am seeking. I understand the principle of the Democratic nom-; inee, he understands mine. In simple words, it is that he favors going j into the Paris league and I favor staying out. Harding "turning his back" on the League caused such a J storm of protest that on Monday he proceeded to reverse him self as follows: I am in favor of a world association call it what you will, tne name is of slight consequence that will iliscourage or tend to prevent war a no that will encourage or tend to encourage a better understand ing of the other.

SLEEPY-TIME TALES THE TALE OF )DIE KATYDID Live slock notes: The can didate who shoots too much bull becomes a little hoarse. It costs people a lot more to feed their pride than it does to feed their faces. ' A question of national hon or usually involves a question of individual profit. A magazine writer has an article on "The Hoarder's Se quel." Doesn't he mean squeal ? The former kaiser has made a new will, but it's too late now to make a new Bill. A successful drive for funds would form a league of peace, not only to keep the peade among themselves, but to prevent, by force if necessary, its being broken by others"-- Theodore Koosevelt.

Among the freak measures on the referendum ballot to beimake m8takeg Doubtless they. voted at the areneral election is a proposed constitutional j win; but. there must be decision amendment, known as the "Anti-compulsory vaccination amendment." The measure is much broader than its title and reat and in its results will effect public health control in a serious manner. It reads as follows: Section 9. No form of vaccination, Inoculation, or other medica tion shall be mailt' a condition In this state for admission to, or attend ance in, any public school, college, university, or other educational in stitution; or for the employment of any person In any capacity, or for the exercise of afiy right, the performance of any duty, or the enjoy ment of any privilege. The measure is in brief, a surrender of the powers of the state to enforce quarantine and prevention measures against contagious disease or epidemic and nullifies any effort in this direction by local or state government. It is not particularly the anti-vaccination feature that make the bill a vicious one, it is the throwing open of schools, colleges, factories and places of employment, restaurants, dairies and theatres to anyone afflicted with contagious disease, whether it be minor maladies like the itch, and in fectious sores, or fatal diseases like scarlet fever, diptheria and small-pox, and the loss of power by authorities to check the spread of such a disease and decisions must be enforced. Under these conditions the United States cannot quit." TCIihu Root to Will Hays, March 24, 1919, (3) William H. Taft has said: "People are prone to treat tho league as an academic question, as if it were for college professors and philanthropists. I agree that at one time it was confined to these peo ple, hut now it is an absolute ne cessity an dis required by the situ ation." Hx-Presldent Taft at New York, March 10, 1919. (4) Herbert Hoover has said: "As .the covenant stands today there is a place at which redress can be found and through which the good-will of the world can be enforced. The very machinery by which the treaty is to be executed and scores of points yet to be solv ed, which have been referred to the league of nations as a method of securing more mature Judgment in a less heated atmosphere, justify the creation of the league. To manaon the covenant now means A Noisy Crowd. When the night of the race oiher snorts finally came, a crewd began to gather about Farmer Green's place soon aftei dark. Although Benjamin Bat had told people that the fun wasn't go ing to begin until almost morning, they were all so excited that they couldn't wait for the night to pass. They lingered around the door yard and talked so loudly that they actually disturbed the household. loudly at him that he hurried oil to the watering-trough to dive un der water, and stay there until he was sure his remarks had been forgotten. Meanwhile Benjamin Bat was worrying. He couldn't find any bodv who was willing to try the ; sport of hanging head downward I by his heels. He asked Kiddie Katydid; and Kiddie declined flat ly to do any such thing. Now, since Benjamin had not yet dined, he was very short-tempered. Andj he grew angry at "What's the matter?" he sneered. "Don't you know how to do an easy trick like that? If I could see you " he declared, peering among the maple leaves "if 1 could see you I'd show you how it feels to hang beneath a limb." Kiddie Katydid said no word in reply. He knew well enough what Benjamin Bat meant. Benjamin wanted to eat him! And he wish ed that Benjamin would go away and get a good meal somewhere before he came back again. !... V....

"I can hear you, but 1 can't see you." But Kiddie Katydid refused to show himself.

Doubtless you have tried remedies by the score because the pains are always increas i ing in severity ana are a source of constant suffering.

But did you ever know of anyone ever ridding them selves of this painful disease by the use of liniments or other local treatment?
