Dtinlup. conducted services at tho United Presbyter ian church last Sunday night. Ho Is from Egypt and told of bis works. I.loyd-Oeorge, the llrltlsh premier In a speech last Friday stated that a war between tho U.

Tho auto mechanics, or as they are called in police circles, automotive en gineers, have on clean koveralls today, and tho tiro regulations regarding lighting a match In tho same block with tlieiu, has been repealed. Messrs. Ashpolc and Illcliardson caught a forger Sat, night, and the original thought of calling the hardy sleuths Nick Carter, Individually and collectively, has occurred to every man In town. SAFETY FIRST! (Albany Democrat) H. C. Morgason Is remodliug his car for spring use at tho home of his daughter and his son, George Maxwell, This Is on Time week. Next week Is Tax pay lug or I'ainsln-tlH'l'oekelbook week. Tho world won tho freedom of the seas In the (Ireat Fracas, but that Is no excuse for the same being knee deep on tha Main Stem. A lady acquaintance has started out to get. u now spring hat, and It begins to look llko tho deal w ill be consum mated by fall. LKSS tliim three years ne;o Lloyd (iconic said the Turk must be swept from Kurope. Today hi; is lending tin; figlit for a modi fication of the Scvre Treaty, which will c the Sick Msm of Europe miollier lease on life. This change of front illustrates the complete transformation of the Kiifopeun .situation and the European spirit. The collapse of Kussia, with the promise of Constantinople, no longer binding, once more transformed the Dardanelles into an excuse for diplomatic scrambling; the revival of the imperialistic spirit following the war, automatically revived Turkey as an essential pawn in this game. It is not surprising, therefore, that with tho opening of the Lon don conference, an announcement of Turkish aggression against Greece should be made, and no one is surprised to find the beginning of a renpproachmcnt between King Constantino and his former im placable enemy, Venizclos. For Grecian aspirations are united against restoring Turkey to power, while French and British ambitions in the Xear East, now well developed, are unrealizable without it. The entire situation merely emphasizes ohce more the depressing reaction which is sweep ing Europe, and the fragility of the hope that tho war would usher in a better and more democratic order. Superficially, at least, the old balance of power theory would seem to be in existence again, and Ihe race for selfish advantage, protected by the smoke screen of diplomacy, appears to be running in high. I'll future looks dark. Another war is inconceivable, from the standpoint of realistic statesmanship, and yet no honest observer can deny, that. Europe as a whole, is returning to those prewar paths, which heretofore have only led to ruin and disaster. The straight party ballot is coming up again in the legislature whenever its proponents feel the opposition is .sufficiently exhausted to allow its passage over the Governor's veto. We don't see why the Democrats should so strenuously oppose this legislation. Nothing could more effectively drive Republicans out of the party, and align them permanently with a parly of protest. ' ' ' HT RbdidS fy Wel t Mason THE HARDEST TEST. 1TRY" to bear life's many ills with fortitude and grit; if I am pale around the gills, the fad I won't admit. I still attempt to smile anil sing when Iburdened down by care; the smile may be a ghastly thing, but still you'll find it there. I've smiled when joints seemed all afire with fierce rheumatic, pain ; I've smiled when agenls sold me stock in mines that didn't pay, and when I slid around a l;lock, upon a slippy day. I've, smiled beneath misfortune's whacks, and raised no doleful din; but when I pay my. income lax, I don't attempt a grin. There is a time to preach and dance, as wise apostles say, and there's a time to whoop and prance, and chortle and be gay; but he is in discretion lax, or else he's full of guile, who ponies up his income tax, and wears a cheer-up snjile. His smile may reach from ear to ear, it even may be twins, but none can feel he is sincere, that he means what he grins. "There's some fell purpose in his mirth," beholders will agree; "for no white man upon this earth can pay his tax with glee. The coin we (oiled so hard to get, in pain defying words, our Une.le Samuel will get and throw it lo tho birds. And so no man of purpose high, no man who earns the bones, can pay that tax without a sigh, without a brace of groans." .

"By taking Tanlae I have gotten rid of a case of rheumatism, which had troubled me more or less for forty years. I got so I couldn't walk a block, couldn't even get out of the yard. My whole system Beemed to be affected and for a long time I couldn't move my hands, wasn't even able to put on my shoes and I suffered so I could hardly keep from yelling out every time I tried to move. A pain would catch me in my back when 1 stooped over, and it hurt ter ribly when I straightened up. My muscles cramped and seemed like they were drawn in knots and my kidneys bothered me a great deal. "t had been told so many times that nothing could help me that I thought I would never be well again.
