“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
was the best and quickest re
lief I could get. Since I came
to Texas I have these bilious
attacks every now and then—
a man will get bilious any
where, you 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 liveT
medicine, used in America for
over eighty years. It acts on
the stomach, liver and bowels
in a gentle, natural way, as
sisting digestion and reliev
ing constipation. Sold every
where.

OUR GIFTS TO JUSTICE.
DEFECTIVE TEETH AND HANDS.
OUR FEEBLE IMAGINATION.
NEIGHBORLY NATIONS.
A man in the Sing Sing death
house, sentenced to die next
month, hangs himself. Doctors
work over him for hours, trying
to bring him back to life. The
interesting feature of this death
in the death house is the violent
effort to resuscitate the man after
he had strangled himself. The law
said he must die, why not let him
die?
What do the higher powers
above think of the corpses that
we send up from our gallows, elec
tric chairs and lethal chambers?
How much better does our civiliz
ation seem up there than that of
the ancient Mexicans that ripped
out the heart of a living human
sacrifice, offering that as a wel
come gift to their gods?
How do our gifts to the god
dess of Justice impress real jus
tice?
The French army has tested and
approved anew stabilizing device
for airplanes, without the use of a
gyroscope. That means one step
nearer to absolutely safe flying,
safer than any mode of travel on
land.
Ten to twenty years should see
the end of long distance rail tra
vel and of ocean surface travel.
Wise real estate investors will
make their plana with the flying
machine in mind.
The British worry because the
national eyesight grows weaker.
One hundred and fifty in every
1,000 lack good sight at the age of
twenty and ten at the age of four.
The human eye, like the teeth
that nature gave us, is defective,

The unseen hand of the burglar and thelthief reach

teeth cause suffering and death.
Teeth better planned would not do
that. Evan our flve-flngered
hands, would have been much im
proved by adding one Anger. With
that extra finger we should use in
arithmetic the superior duodecimal
system, instead of the inferior
decimal system, and we could play
stringed instruments of a higner,
more complicated kind.
t
Floyd Collin’s suffering is over.
This man’s death illustrates the
power and the weakness of human
imagination. A hundred men risk
ed their lives to save his. Doctors
went to his rescue by flying
machine, but could do nothing.
The entire nation followed closely
the tragic story.
Imagination showed the man ly
ing in the low cave, his leg crushed
by the 14,000-pound rock, existing
day after day for nearly two weeks
in horrible aguny and discomfort. ,
• )
It was possible to imagine clear
ly that dreadful situation. And
the nation sympathized. Any legis
lature would gladly have voted
SIOO,OOO to save Collins.
The same nation, through its
legislatures, refuses to pass the
Child Labor amendment that would
free tens of thousands of children
from years of slow torment.
The feeble public imagination
cannot see clearly those children
in the mills.
The Prince of Wales, whom
Americans recently made very
welcome, is interested in a plan to
send British students to this
country. That is common sense, as
well as a pleasant compliment.
The Rhodes scholarship system,
that now sends American boys to
British universities, will be re
versed In the new plan. The way
to establish peace Is to increase
intelligence. When nations know
each other, they will compete In
stead of fighting.
There is disappointment because i
the British Church can’t find a
way to make a saint of Florence
Nightingale, and supply her with ft
halo. The answer to that is that
Florence Nightingale is a saint
already, and needs no halo.
When she went to Scutari, with
her group of devoted nurses, to
save from needless death the
wounded men in the Crimea, stick
ing at her work, although pros
trated with fever, she made her
jelf a saint. Nothing that the
Archbishop of Canterbury might
do would make her saintliness
more genuine than it is.
