The thing that makes a man an i
American is not the blood in his
veins, but the ideas in his head
not loyalty to race or monarch, but
to principles.
There may be some newspapers
that want war for the news it will
bring, but here is one that is per
fectly willing to have a rapid suc
cession of "dull weeks" for a long
time to come - if it will avoid war.
The Nebraska legislature has in
creased the tax limit for education
al purposes from 35 to 50 mills to
take care of the schools in towns
that become dry when the new pro
hib tion law goes ito effect. Ne
braska is one of the three leading
states in the Union as having the
lea it illiteracy. Then to think that
some people opposed a 12 mill tax
limit in Arkansas where' lands are
taxed at $2.50 per acre against
$50.00 to $ 100.00 per acre in Ne
braska.
Are the women in the belligerent
nations going back to the menial
tasks which were their work in life
before the war began? That is a
big question for the countries af
fected to settle. Women in Eng
land and in France, for instance,
who are carrying mail, running
street cars and taxicabs, filling
clerkships and other responsible
office positions are becoming set
tled in their work and like it. It
will be a task to dig them out.
Factory life at low wages and with
poor living conditions will not ap
peal to these women and girls who
have found a new and more pleas
ant place in the field, of human en
deavor. _
They never learn. A Grandpa
from Cedar Rapids, la., strolled
down to Chicago to see the sights.
He met a pair of companionable
young ladies and accompanied
them to a ho tel. During the en
tertainment an irate “husband"
broke in aryj demanded money or
the aged Iowan’s life. Grandpa
paid over $500 and promised more
if the trif j would visit him in Cedar
Rapids. They did so and Grandpa
had th em arrested and charged
with operating the old-time "badg
er game" for profit. The newspa
pers frequently mention this high
toned meth od of separating a fool
i h man from his money, but some
f >lks don’h read the newpapers- to
their sorrow.
Put Ban on Cigarettes.
Employes of a prominent lumber
company in Texas have been given
the choice of keeping their jobs or
discontinuing the tase of cigarettes,
according to a circular issued by the
president of the concern to the
heads of departments. The circu
lar says, in part: "My observation,
covering a period of more than
thirty years in active business, has
convinced me that the hibitual use
of cigarettes deprives the user of
menfal poise and sound judgment
necessary in positions of trust: that,
the habit dulls the intellect, under- :
mines the moral fibre and gives
such sway and dominion to the ap
petites as to render a man incapable
and unreliable in a crisis.”

I
''Granny” Chamberlain
Sore Throat
“You may not look upon it seriously, but a sore throat indi
cates a weakness in the bronchial tubes. If neglected it may
soon develop into some chronic complaint.
People who are troubled in this way are most susceptible to
influenza, contra# pneumonia readily, and fall easy victims to
consumption.
To remove this irritation, soothe and heal the inflamed mem
brane, there is nothing equal to
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It gives tone to the weakened tissues of the throat, strengthens
the bronchial tubes, and at the same time build? up the system.
When the throat is healthy, influenza or consumption germs
cannot obtain a foothold. Above all things never neglect a
child’s throat, for it may mean years of suffering for it in after
years."

A dispatch from Vienna says
that in a trial made in Austria to
decide in how short a space of time
living trees could be converted into
newspapers, at 7:35 in the morning
three trees were cut down: at 9:34
the wood, having been stripped of
the bark, cut up. and converted into
pulp, became paper, and passed
from the factory to the press,
whence the first printed and flolded
copy was issued at 10 o'clock. So
that in 145 minutes the trees had
become newspapers.

Wood block paving was charac
terized as the best pavement known
for most city purposes at the four
teenth ann"al convention of the
American Road Builders' Associa
tion recently held in Boston. It
was agreed that properly manufac
tured wood block pavement is ser
viceable for the average manufac
turing city where the heaviest
motor truck and tractor traffic is
encountered, and that in case of the
average severity of heavy traffic
wood block is just as serviceable as
smooth granite blocks, in addition
to being quiet and more attractive.
