Phone Main 82. LESSON OF BOB BURDETTE'S LIFE. It is a pathetic and suggestive story that comes from. rasauena to the etiect that the once popular humorist, who has just died, became a professional funny man through thinking up cheering stories to tell to his inva lid wife. A peculiar source of humor, it seems at first thought. But so was Lincoln s early opportunities a peculiar source of his masterful intellect; so was Poe's narrow and unhappy life a peculiar source of his beautiful thoughts and his far-roaming imaginings: so was- Darwin's nhvsi cal deficiency a peculiar source of his marvelous scientific achievement. It is said by many philosophers that men develope ac cording to the obstacles they- have to encounter-r-over come. This is not unqualifiedly true, else the Esquimo would be the super-man. But so tar as mental and moral qualities are concerned, there is much truth in it. Bob Burdette had ceased to be famous long before he died, but middle-aged people and older ones remember him well as, lor years, one of the country's greatest humorists. He has added nothing to the world's store of science, of the classics, or the high arts. But he generously scatter ed bright smiles and lightened with laughter the hearts of millions. . Ohio has a Law on its statute books that is making the ROMANCE TO THEM ' newspaper men smile. Someone who had it in for "the. irnr DEf TTIINr HFRF Ivino- newspapers" had a bill introduced in the legislature' " inL IVLAI' inimj nl& providing for the punishment of newspapers publishing: false statements. Before the bill became a law the news-!B JKydo"dJ;eXw.i lanor men suep'ested a change or addition, which was ac- the work thut is involved in the cepted, and the law went into effect providing for the JrXCK punishment of ''any newspaper or any person" from ad- constitution, but with us it is tin- roai vertiser to campaign manager who prevaricates in print; fX'a LCno. The first person to be punished under the law was a male foort e. o. r-erry, of the Department ffopsro who had told a talse story to a newspaper reporter. h. ;,, ;h' Y , Uv As most of the mis'-statements made in newspapers are to 8ecroa.-y of state oicott, in wit. he to false or misleading information., .the newspaper ZiX'TZ ZtSC ZZ fraternity' are enjoying the law that was initiated for the puiHo schools of the nution's mo their punishment. ; "'It"',,,,, in tw m, whore the i-niti- utive and referendum are practically- One class of imports has been seriously affected by the CT'VVZ war. At Ellis Island, New York,, which has a capacity for wonderful that the people t orouon handling 5,000 immigrants a day, the arrivals are only ZZXr0 nbont 150, and these are not from the warring eountnes, intently interesting and win i either. It is harder for a citizen of one of those countries . KS to get out oi his own country than it is to get into someimark is taken for or ted timt t-rt other. They are needed at home to stop bullets, fill the trenches and keep the incinerators working full time. Great Britain announces thirty-six censors have beer fired. This may be truer but it is evident she still has a t'ull crew on the job or someone is working double shifts. Nothing gets by the gang unless it is favorable to the al lies. In justice it should be added, however, that the Rus sian and German and all the other censor do their w-.H. in the same way and each reports a victory for his side.4 no matter who wins. Carranza following. in the footsteps of so many of hi predecessors in Mexico,, has taken the first step toward his lourney to Spain. It shows wisdom on his part to es tablish his capital at a seaport, where the getting away is good and can be done quickly on short noticeor none. 0 Just one- month until Christmas, and just time enough, to get your generous donation to the Belgian war victims bv that time. Surely no better gift can be made at the I coming Christmas than that which relieves the misery of Perry does not look forward to the adoption of equul Huffr-.iiro in the stiifr of New York, nt leant for some time to come.

Round Trip Fares Between Valley Points Good Going Wednesday or Thursday Return Any Time Until Monday, November 30th QUIT MEAT IF YOUR KIDNEYS ACT BADLY Take a tablespoonful of Salts if Back hurts or Bladder bothers Meat forms uric acid. Yesterday it was snowing in Berlin with the thermom- A hearty,, wholesome laugh, like the ripple started by both old and young in the devastated war zone of Europe. the dropping ot a pebble m a pool, ever spreads in a wider, wider circle. Like the particle of leaven, it lightens the whole loaf. Like the sunbeam,, it casts a glow of warmth and light that never goes out of the world. The sunbeam, may bury itself away in the- tough fiber of the oak, but it dances forth again in the glow and heat of the genial fire. It hides itself in the heart of the grape, hut it laughs again upon us in the sparkle of the wine. It falls on desert sands and seems to die there; but not so; its warmth is wafted by the winds to far-off fertile lands and shields them from lhe frosts of night. Jirst so, the hearty,, wholesome laugh, born of a genial soul, ripples, leavens, sparkles on through the world as a gladness forever. It is said there is not such thing as a new joke. Well, there are no dead ones, either. Maybe there are no new laughs, but only echoes of the music of Eden. We are- a nation of meat enters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well known authority, who warns us to be constantly oo guard against Kid ney trouble. The kidneys do beir utmost to free the blood of this irritating neid, but become weak from the overwork; fid get sluggish; the uliminutivc tissues clog and thus tho asto is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel liko lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine j is cloudy, run or sediment, or tne bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief durinir the niirht: when ' vou have severe headaches, acid stom ach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four onuses of Jnd Snlts; take a tablespoon ful tn a glass of water before break fast eneh morning and in n few days your kidneys will net fine.

Does Salem intend' to turn deaf ears to the appeal of the war victims for aid? It would seem so front the. apa thy so far shown.. We do not believe Salem people are less kind hearted or charitable than other people, indeed they have proven their big-heartedness on many occasions, and the apparent neglect to aid the famine-stricken of Bel gium and other countries ia not due to lack of sympathy or niggardliness, but to the fact that no one has taken the lead in the matter ami made it convenient to give. The churches, Commercial club or some other organization should take hold of the matter and establish a depot whore donations of food, money or clothing could be re ceived. There will be no lack of givers when once this is done. Who will assume the responsibility and provide the means through which Salem can contribute her quota ct the suffering, homeless and hopeless victims of red Imnded war. It should bo remembered that "he who gives miickly gives twice." Women and children, the old and the young, millions of them, have notliing between them and death but tho charity and goodness of their fellow men.
