In striking con trast to the conventional politician, he neither pussyfoots nor equivocates. No matter how much political dynamite the issue may contain, Upton never hesitates. Once convinced it IS an issue, in he jumps with both feet, definitely on one side or the other. a WK have an idea this amazing disregard for the rules of the political game,' is one secret of his success in California. The people there and everywhere else for that matter had become inexpressibly tired of the time-serving, hand-shaking, baby-kissing type of office seeker. Year after year they had been witnesses and victims of the old discredited "army game." They longed for something different and something new, and campaign after campaign been denied it, until this man Sineliar came along. a a IN a twinkling the entire scene changed. Here at last was an office seeker who said what he thought and thought what he said. He had a definite plan all his own, and he minced no words in elucidating it, to all who wished to hear, (at two-bits per head!) Even more astonishing the man didn't claim his plan was a ''sure fire cure-all" or deny it had certain shortcomings. Believe it or not, he admitted his Epic scheme would involve certain sacrifices on the pnrt of the small busings man, and certain readjustments in labor and industrial circles, but he 'maintained the situation in the state was so acute, that such sacrifices could not be avoided. a a a a AS if that were not enough, he won the democratic primary, nnifl a hurried visit to President Roosevelt, even secured the endorsement of the democratic machine in his state, only to turn about and admit, that he had only "USED" the democratic party, because so many people voted as their grandfathers voted and looking for a party with a lot of "grandfathers" he decided the democratic party was best qualified in that respect!' No fooling, what a man ! And he is still going on in that way. In a state where no office seeker in nearly a generation has dared tackle the Tom Mooney case, Sinclair not only tackled it, but frankly stated that if elected governor he would pardon Mooney, as soon as the papers could be prepared. In a state where tourists with money exercises each morning and each eve have always been welcomed and floaters without it, have been I weakneM' H"e about as welcome as lepers at the Ritz, ho just as frankly ad- stand erect, claap your hands be- mitUd that his program to end poverty would probably bring raw in the bums on every brake beam, and as governor he would do his best to take care of them!

Nor should any brace ever be put on such a child without medical ad Tic a and supervision. To attempt to remedy faults of posture or weak nesses with sup porters, braces, corsets, arch props a-hd the like la to encourage the development of the functional fault Into an or ganic defect. Par ents are entirely too credtuoua about this. They too readily Intrust the welfare end future happiness of a child to the charlatan who ao freely promlaes a miracle or a cure. The round ahouldered child need physical training or perhaps medical treatment for anemia or other under lying cause of weakness. Occasionally It happens that there ta actual spinal curvature or other disease which calls for cast, brace or other orthopedic surgery. In any case of round shoulders, careful examination ahows an exag gerated backward curve of the upper dorsal spine; this la called "kyphosis," meaning a hump. This kyphosis or round shoulders first develops between the ages of eight and sixteen years, aa a rule Just the age when 111 -ad vised parents so often enter Into a conspiracy to have the child excused from regular physical education In school. Good ness knows our children get precious little physical education at best. It Is a sad mistake to aid or abet the child In dodging this part of the ele mentary education. When a tendency toward round shoulders la noticed, the child ahould be required to carry out some simple A S far as we enn recall, nothing like the Sinclair phenomenon, has ever been witnessed in the history of American politics. Not only has he refused to piny the political game as it always has been played, lie has apparently been determined to violate every tradition and principle of it. Small wonder the professional politicians of both parties in that state arc running around in circles and wondering whether or not the world is coming to an end. They have plenty of am munition to use against him. Sinclair they can say is a Red and a radical; an atheist and a free-lover; a dreamer and a clown, but the people of the state still rally about him, pack his meetings to the rafters, and according to KNX straw vote he is leading his two opponents from two and three to one! ViriLIj ho winf That depends wo believe, upon whether or " not, the emotional enthusiasm for Sinclair can be sustained until the (Jth of November less than two weeks away. If it can nothing can bent him if it can't, one of his opponents is bound to win. Our own hunch is a break in this Sinclair tidal wave is about due. In the first place after five or six months, the novelty of the thing must be wearing off, there must be many of his followers who thrilled by his audacity, frankness and complete freedom from the tricks of the old guard politician are begin ning to make a more careful analysis of the man. Second, there must bo others, who intrigued by such a novel and new proposal as Kpie, are beginning to look behind the window dressing and the bally hoo, and inspect the wheels and cogs and conse quences a little more carefully. And in the third place, political allegiance based upon an emotional foundation is always a very uncertain factor. However, with this as with all other political predictions, wo shall know a great deal more about it AFTER, rather than HE FORE, the ballots are counted ! Bend forward as your shoulders and el bows as close together aa you can. Then straighten up with hands still clasped behind the neck. Repeat this five times at first, ten times the second week, fifteen times the third week, and after that twenty times each seance. Stand erect, hands clasped behind neck as before, and bring elbows forward as far as possible, at the same time forcing air out of your chest with a long "h-o-o-oh." Then carry elbows back aa far as possible, at tho same time taking a long deep breath thru the open mouth. When your lungs are as full aa possible, hold the breath a mo ment while you rise aa high as you can on your toes and alowly down again, toeing In. Every hour, at the stroke of the clock, no matter where you are or what you are doing, claap your hands together behind your back as tho to make a stirrup for a rider to mount then turn th thumbs forward, under and backward with out releasing the clasp of the fln you draw In one deep alow breath thru open mouth and slowly expel gers, and hold the position while It again.

This relieved the Inflammation, and In a few hours the ointment had disappeared. How do you account for that. If nothing la absorbed thru the skin? (A. 8. J.)

Read about a test which has told parents a lot. Why does a mother's watchfulness find care sometimes fail to help the boy or girl whose bowels are not regular? Often it's because the average mother gives any laxative the family may be using. The doctor would give a liquid laxative of suitable ingredients, suitable strength, and in suitable amount. Are You Making This Mistake? It is not wise to give laxatives of adult strength to a child, just be cause you give them less frequent ly or in less amounts. Stomach up sets and frniiv troubles of grnwinq boys and girls tan often be traced tn this unwise practice. Try this, instead: Stop all use of mineral drugs, whether thev are salts, pills, tablets, or "candy1 form, liven once a month is too often to give any child a cathartic strong enough for adults. Give that bilious boy or girl a gentle liquid laxative when con stipated, and a tittle less if dose is repealed until bowels seem to be moving regularly and thoroughly without need of help. What to Use) Use a liquid laxative containing senna (a natural laxativel. Cali fornia Syrup of Figs has the right amount for children's use, and this rich, fruity syrup docs not harm or upset a child's system. Onre you change to pure, un adulterated California Syrup of Figs instead of harsh medicines, you'll risk no more violence lo your child's appetite, digestion. ana general nhvsica condition. You'll have a safer, more satis factory result, too. Those little upsets and complaints just dis appear, as a rule when this treat ment is followed. THE "LIQUID TEST" This is the way to relieve occa sional sluggishness, or constipa tion in a child of anv age: First: select a lirniid laxative of the proper strength (or children. Second: give the dose suited to the child's ace. and condition Third: reduce Ihedose. if repeated until bowels are moving without any help al all. An ideal laxative for this pur pose is California Syrup of Figs which every druggist keeps in slock. lie certain lhat it is the gen uine product, with "California" blown in the bottle.
