Before they would consent to per mitting him to make a scheduled address, they demanded a yes or no answer, without debate, to the fol- lowing questions: Are you a member of the Red Cross? ' Are you a subscriber to the Lib erty loan? Have you purchased thrift stamps or savings certificates? Are you whole-heartedly and un reservedly backing the government's war program? He answered "no" to all four questions, and that summarily ended his public activities at the county seat of Josephine county, Oregon. Answers to these four questions are a perfectly fair test of the right of any person to live In the United States and enjoy the protection of the Stars and Stripes. No man or woman who can not answer at least one of the questions In the- affirm ative Is fit to live la, America as long as the war lasts. Extreme poverty Is a valid excuse for answering "no' to the first three questions, but no one is so poof as not to be able to give the government moral support This test Is a most f earthing test.! Even those who are able to answer the first three questions affirmative ly are lacking In Americanism If they can not say that they are whole-heartedly and unreservedly backing the government's war pro gram.

Mrs. Annie Johnson, of this place, writes: "1 well remember I suffered for a Jong time with constipa tion, which would get (tie down. I took doctors' medicines and any number of purgatives. They would leave me In a worse condition than I was before taking, and my stomach so upset... I know once I sulfcred . . . from constipation, I was so ill we had to have the doctor, just so nervous and feverish. The doctor said I would have to quit medicines, my stomach was so bad . . My husband was reading and found something about Thedford's Black Draught and brought me a package to Iry. I used It regularly at first untill be gan to feel better, then I used just a dose occasionally. I was cured of Wis con stipation and am sure the Black-Draught did it." 5 If your stomach Is out of order, you will suffer from such disagreeable symp toms as headache, biliousness, indiges tion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result. Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a valuable remedy for these troubles. It Is purely vegetable, and acts in a prompt and natural way, help ing to regulate the liver and to cleanse the bowels of impurities. . Try Black-Draught.
