THE BARTOW TRIBU NE, FEBRUARY 19, 1914.
YOU ARE THE VICTIM?
THERE’S TROUBLE
AHEAD OF YOU.
Unless you have a free, easy move
ment of the bowels at least once every
day you’re bound to strike trouble. At
first you may feel the effects only in
drowsiness, dull headaches, bad tast
ing mouth, sour stomach, distended
stomach, gas in bowels, dizzine-- and
other symptoms that clearly show
that constipation, caused by an Inac
ti\e liven Is breeding trouble for you
If neglected, or if you dose with vio
lent cathartics like calomel, castor oii
and salts (from which the re-action
efien leaves your bowels in worsi'
shape than before), you are then trav
eling the road straight to Chrome Con
siipation, from which many serious
diseases spring.
Side-step this trouble now. Get
Moore’s Liver-ax working for you
Moore's Liver-ax acts surely but pleas
antly on the liver and bowels, and
vhen the liver is right the whole di
gestive tract becomes right. When
you take Mcore’s Liver-ax, there are
no harsh griping pains, no necessity
for change of diet or habit. N < sick
rcss the next day. You get up feeling
fine, go to work with renewed strength

Ciass condition without any of the af
ter-effects that come from calomel.
Moore’s Liver-ax is guaranteed to
satisfy you. Your money back if it
fails. Get a bottle today, 50 cts. at any

In Defense of the Public Schools.
Many of the most devoted friend
~f the United States public school syj
tem are to be found among Its seve -
est critics, and many of these, torget
fai at times of the fact that their loy
a'ty is not known to all, are prone to
go so far in their criticism as to b?
confounded by the uninformed wit i
those who are not friends of the sys
tem. Open, honest, discriminating crit
iclsm cannot harm the public schools
hut there can be so much of It as to
disturb the balance and completely
overshadow the measure of praise
that is meted out to those institutions
Tt is a desirable thing, for numerous
reasons, that there should be at leas'
a momentary pause in criticism now
md then, that account may be taken
ot the good the schools have done and
are doing, and that proper recognitlo i
aid .appreciation should be bestowed
upon them.
Refreshing, encouraging and wel
come, therefore, are the facts brought
cut by Philander P. Claxton of thr
United States commission of educa
t en in an address delivered at Wor
cester, Mass., a few days ago.
Rets, stated modestly enough, mak*'
quite an impressive array. Summariz
ed briefly, they show that the public
schools of the United States have edu
cated 90,000,000 people In the last fortr
years; that they have reduced illlter
acy from 22 to 7 per cent.; that, the'
have reduced illiteracy among negroe
from 95 to 15 per cent, and that they
have reduced illiteracy among Immi
grants to 12 per cent.
This is a splendid showing, but n
earnest friend or defender of the pub
lie school system, not even Commit
sioner Claxton, will claim per lectio
for it. On the contrary, the greater the
loyalty to that system the greater th
aesire and the more persistent th:
effort to improve it. Thus, Commi,-
sroner Claxton would establish sch)C
terms of equal length, build up a grea
c.. rps of thoroughly trained teachers
M-se that every child may taKe advan
tage of all the public school offers,
prevent cutting of the education per
iod, give greater variety to the curric
vlnm, establish a six year elementary
school and, finally, make possible •
three-hour school day 300 days in th
year, giving a total of 900 hours o f
study a year.
There may be differences of opinio ■
on some of these recommendations,
but there will hardly be a difference
of opinion among those who care most
for the welfare of the nation, as t
the magnificent achievements of th
public school system in the an t
as to the absolute necessity of provi :
ing the best of everything for it i
the future.
Mr. Merchant, an ad in this paper
will certainly bring results. Las f we"k
a gentleman had a small ad in The
Tribune stating that be wanted to
trade a house and lot for a farm Th
Tribune found the man that wanted t n
make the change. It pays to let the
people know what you have to se'l
and the" best way is to make a con
tract with the manager by the year
ar.d he will figure with you right.
We are getting a lot of new custom
ers, but have plenty of room for more
We guarantee to please in quality and
workmanship. Nothing but the be=d o*
printing will leave this office.
