HOWELL COBB, Referee. Athens, Ga., Sept. 4th, 1924. Old Folks’ Ailments “I began taking Black- Draught over fifty years ago and my experience with it stretches over a good long time,” says Mr. Joe A. Blake more, a Civil War veteran and former Virginian, who is now a prominent citizen of Floyd, Texas. “It is the best laxative I know of for old people... A good many years ago, in Virginia, I used to get bilious and I found that Thedford’s BLM-81U6HT was the best and quickest re lief I could get. Since I came to Texas L have these bilious attacks every now and then— a man will get bilious any where, vou know —-and I find that a'little Black-Draught soon straightens me out. After a few doses, in little or no time I’m all right again.” Thedford’s Black-Draught is a purely vegetable liver medicine, used in America for over eighty years.

This Week By Arihur Brisbane NOT READING—THINKING. JOY ON MARS. YOUNG AT 102. TWO YOUNG MEN. The World Federation of Educa tion Associations organises a world war aguinst illiteracy. For this war the Crown Prince of Japan has appropriated a million yen. China has adopted the slo gan “China a Literate Nation in One Generation.” It is preposterous that any human beings, outside of aciiial barbarism, should grow un unable to read. But teaching them to read and write is only the first step. The next is teaching human beings TO THINK, which is considerably more difficult and important. It isn’t what you HEAD that counts. It’s what von THINK [AFTER YOU READ that improves government am! civilization. It takes a Frenchman, and an old one, Camille Flammarion, to say that the people on Mars are much more JOYFUL than we are. The Martian year is twice as long as ours. A man there fifty years old has lived 100 years, nearly. The climate is better and the planet being smaller, every thing - is lighter. An ordinary Mar tian could easily carry his mother in-law upstairs in his arms, won if she weighed 400 pounds. Mil lions of years older in their civiliza tion than earth men, the Martians are far ahead of us in knowledge, and that means happiness. In fact it’s the only solid happiness. John A. Stewart, called “Grand Old Man of Wait Street,” who knew Abraham Lincoln, and is now head of an important hank, celebrated his 102nd birthday last v<mk. To us, that seems old. A thousand years hence, 12a will Siam young as sixty is no .. Men v. '1 die out gently like fading i vi ligkt. Stewart continue I'V.ng, intellectually young, because he has continued WO BRING. Men like t: -• s die at the top. They are all right while the tr.p is green. ® After a while civil:-.ed human beings will decide tl, :t rats and mite don’t pay, and take the trouble to get rid of them along with mosquitoes, flies and r nuisances that Father Noah might well havp left out of the Ark. An English scientist demon strated that rats suffer from foot and mouth disease and, frequenting stables, infect the cattle. Moral for farmers, use cement and copper and keep out the rats. Clarence Barrow, a lawyer, who thinks and feels, and consequently earns little in proportion to his great ability, tells the Court that to hang the two young men whom he defends, Loel> and Leopold, “would be a worse crime than they committed.” And that is the truth, exactly. If a red Indian tortured a white man for twenty-four hours, that would not excuse white men for torturing that red man even for twenty-four minutes. The greater the intelligence and responsibility, the greater the crime. This column, too lightly, com pared Moses’ forty-year trip across the desert with the four-hour trip of a small American automobile, and the one and one-half-hour trip of a flying machine, across the same desert. Many writers send learned com ment. Jlyman Bodner, of Passaic, New Jersey, says, “You needn’t wait to get information /-om doses in heaven. He kept the cbd iron of Israel in the desert for forty years because they were not qualified to conquer the Promised Land. They practically all died.
