DON’T HECKLE THE PRESIDENT
It is* now a practical certainty that
a meeting will be held in Washington,
some time in November, for the pur
pose of discussing internatjonal dis
armament and certainty for eastern
aifirs. This meeting will be attended
by official representatives of the gov-
rnments of the United States, Eng
land, France, Italy, Belgium, China,
and others. There is a possibility
that German delegates may be pres
ent.
The conference may result in great
and everlasting good to the world, or
it may end a farce. That is yet to be
determined.
In the meantime, there arc many
newspapers in this country that will
be editorially discussing the various
phases of these subjects, with a view
to swaying piblic opinion to their
way of thinking, and especially the
throwing of light upon the more or
less obscure pdnts.
There are nthers that will have
for their secrlt aim, the embarrass
ment of the president, just at a time
when he shodd receive the support
of the Amerimn people in this laud
able umlertakhg of his.
The peace cf the world in general
and of this country in particular is of
fnr more importance than the even
ing up of political scores and private
grudges.
A free ami frank discussion of these
subjects is legitimate and is to be de
sired. It is in accord with the tra
ditional policy of the American
people.
But deliberate heckling of the pres
ident just at that time will he unfor
tunate, if not disastrous.
It is difficult for any president to
make good on an international pro
ject of this magnitude when he is
being pulled back by his own people.
Don’t heckle the president.
Washington, Aug. 6.—“With the
coming of cold weather, business will
revive.” This is the unequivoval
statement of W. P. G. Harding, gov
ernor of the Federal Reserve Board
and, on economic conditions, one of
the best informed men in the United
States. .
Mr. Harding predicted the cotton
panic and urged the farmers to sell
when their staple was worth 43 cents,
in July, 1920. His prediction of stim
ulated business the coming Fall is re
garded in Washington as significant.
A much better prospect for cotton,
Mr. Harding also predicts.
“Last Fall,” he said, “ we had a
carry-over crop of five million bales
and a new crop of thirteen million
plus. Europe could not buy. Home
consumption was curtailed by virtue
of a buyers’ strike. Now we have
a carry-over crop of approximately
feeven million bales and a new crop of
only eight million. Export trade re
suscitated, home consumption, with
stimulated business the coming Fall,
will increase.”
We have opened a first-class Meat
Market and expect to handle only the
very best of everything carried in an
up-to-date Market We will appreciate
a liberal share of your patronage. We
lj»pect to make our service the best
to be had in the city.

Don’t Risk Neglect
Don’t neglect a constant backache,
sharp, darting pains or urinary dis
orders. The danger of dropsy or
Bright’s disease is too serious to ig
nore. Use Doan’s Kidney Pills as
have your friends and neighbors. Ask
your neighbor, a Bainbridge case.
Mrs. A. B. Cliett, 527 Calhoun St.,
says: “My kidneys were weak and
caused me much annoyance. I had
dropsical swellings in my feet and
back was lame. I had a dull aching
in the small of my back, and I was
getting worse all the time. I had
heard so much about Doan’s Sidney
Pills, I began to take them. The first
box which I got at the Ehrlich Drug
Co., greatly relieved me. The re
sults have been lasting, and I haven’t
had near as much trouble since.”

Advice From An Editor
Hence, I say, if you are insurable get in
sured. * * * I am talking to plain, life-
loving men and women who know not very
much about whot to do with money' except
to enjoy whot they can buy with it.
For, as sure as y r ou live, when the time
comes that the botom drops out of things
and you begin to go around from good fel
low to good fellow trying to cash in a little
of the good-fellowship that you’ve spent
for so freely, you will obtain nothing more
than a large gone feeling in your inwards,
and you will realize that for the man with
no money in his pocket this is a damp
and unpleasant vale of tears.
