' De Tocqueville, a brililant French man, visited this continent during the year 1831. Upon returning to bis native country be said in commenting on American life, "No matter bow irksome an enactment may be, the citizen of the United States complies with it, not only because it is the work of the majority, bat because it is his own, and lie regards it as a con- tiact to which be himself is a party." Would be have written this statement if be had delayed bis visit to the be ginning oi the Twentieth Century? Facts are not always pleasant things to face; bat it is a much safer coarse tnan to ignore them. Respect for and obedieuce to law are two of the esse' tial forces tl at make for the safety of a nation and the perpetuity of its civilization. Lawlessness is a dangerous spirit and is fostered in niaoy ways. Disregard for law has always been a weakness and sometimes a fatal weakness, ot republics. The first republic of Frauce was a rein of terror, for 13 years it continued this form cf govern ment and then ended in an empire. There ia such a thing as a lawlessness of government that is equivalent to despotism. On the other hand there is a popular lawlessness that is equi valent to anarchy. Anarchy inevita bly leads to revolution. The spirit of lawlessness is nur tured in many ways. The laxity of parental discipline in the home and the total disregard of parental authority. k sensational press that prints vice and crime in glowing colors. The church with its timid minister and its lukewarm and dis united membership has its share in nourishing this child. Our public schools, colleges and universities which have placed an education above character help to feed this lusty in fant. The saloon that run wide open on Sunday, that sell liquor to minors. Habitual drunkards, to Indians and half brxeds, in conjunction with the brothel and the gambling den are in a large measure responsible for its growth. The alderman, the legisla tor, the representative ia congress, the senator in the United States seuate who betray the tmsts the people have placed in their hands, or whose fin gers are contaminated with bribes are responsible. The prosecuting attor ney, the juror, the judge and all officers who wink at open violation of law are perpetuating its growth. Aod last bat by no means the least factor in its development is the voter who votes for such men to bold re sponsible positions. The voter is in a large measuie responsible for it all. It is because the voter tolerates this violation of law, that the foundations of oor government are being under mined, and oor boasted American arierty endangered. lne average American citizen dots not seem to be able to distinguish the difference be tween liberty and license. What is the remedy for all these sources of evil? Thev tell us it is to come through the process of education. Education of the intellect alone will not suffice. Manv of this nation's must flagrant acta of lawlessness hare been conitnitted by the so-called oigniy eaucated. Education is not a remedy. It may assist but can never effect a sacrifice. There is but one remedy. We must have a virtuous, intelligent, industrious, curageous. patriotic. God-fearing people. Ihis, and this alone is the remedy. How can we produce sucn a people? The home, the public school, th college, the university, the church of Jesus Christ aud all other institutions ttiat make for righteousness must unite on oue proposition the production of manly men and womanly women. Character must be exalted above shrewdues, or knowledge, or skill or anything else. The writer believes verities of the Bible Clarence McCollum came near oat ting his thumb off with an ax. Rev.

Any physician will tell you that it it nnwise to eat nnlcss one is real hungry. It is far better to miss a meal than to eat without appettie. But do not take a tonic, stimuW or appetizer to make you hungry Rotermund says that the best way to create an appetite is to restore the di. gestion to health by the use of Mj.0! na stomach tablets, a reliable remedy that he has need with the beet of sati faction. When Mi-o-na is used, the irritation and inflammation of the stomach coating will be soothed, the gaetrio follicles will be strengthened eo that tbiy will pour out the natural dig6l. tive fluids with regularity, and the food you eat will be perfectly digested without distress. All headaches sleeplessness, specks before the eyes,' poor appetite, tired feelings, nervous, nees, back aches, and other troubles canted by a poor digestion, will soon disappear and you will feel well all over. A large box of Mi-o-na stomach tab lets is sold for 50 cents by Rotermund and it is so successful and reliable in curing indigestion and other stomach troubles, with the exception of canoer of the stomach, that he sells it under a guarantee that the money will be re funded unless it does all that ii claimed for it If you have any stomach weakness, here is an opportunity to be cured without risking a cent yourself.
