is making a tremendous fuss because national laws compel her to actually go dry. Maine’s State prohibition laws were always a joke the (oentry over They were only occasionally enfor­ced, and then only for a brief time. They served year after year to furn­ish parties with a campaign issue, hut they did net prevent a thirsty citizen or stranger from getting all the drink he wanted. The State was not able to make herself go dry, but she ought hot to have the bad taste to get cross because she has to put up with the na­tional drought, the same as the rest j pf us.— Philadelphia Press j, When will some of our pipe-dream­ing, and romance-swallowing neigh­bors of the big cities discover that the stories of T. M. Gilmore and the wholesale booze men of Massachu­setts describe the grievances of and deal with only their own element, and that THAT element is not “Maine?" Big city newspapers have repeated the pretense of the booze interests so o f­ten that they almost believe their own gbphlstry. Maine is not making a fuss But is mightily pleased that at last the federal government is no longer in J M fW with the rum crowd to violate pClSne laws. Maine resents the first p h in the above quotation as she does JE# others. Maine WAS unable to eit­

An off dayYou may have an off day occasionally. It may follow eating too bountifully, ir may come from overwork, or perhaps from exposure when fatigued. A dull, heavy’ tired feeling in the morning, a headache or a cold in ti e early stages; these symp­toms unfit a person for doing his best, and may lead to illness it neglected.

There is a remedy, safe, sure and reliable, which should be in every household for just such emergencies, the true and original “L.F.” Atwood’s Medicine. It may be safely used by persons of any age,from children to those well advanced in years. Tlu* best way to keep well is to prevent illness, and a teaspoonful or two of this old standard remedy will often prevent serious illness if used af the be­ginning of trouble.

President Wilson, however, objected to having the Ex-Kaiser removed to America for trial. His reasons were notv made known, but it is supposed that he felt that the punishment of Geimany’s dethroned ruler was main­ly Europe's business.

Get the Big Price for Your Hay

The quality of your hay determines the price. There is often a difference of from $6.00 to $10.00 per ton be­tween choice hay and hay that grades No. 3. Increase your hay land profits by air-curing your hay.

Air-cured hay is better hay. It holds its color. The leaves do not become brittle. There is little loss in handling. The hay keeps better in the mow, stack or bale, and is more palatable, more digestible and has greater feed in g va lu e .

Whether you sell your hay or feed it, your profits are increased when you adopt this system of making hay.

It does not cost you any­thing extra to air-cure hay. You merely use a Dain System Rake.

The Dain System Rake is the best for this purpose. It is the easiest to operate and you can handle the heaviest hay because, with the inclined frame, the capacity is the greatest where the quantity o f hay handled is largest.

AMNtAUhJUSTFljPTt YEARS OLD

Fifty years ago the first airbrake pat­ent ever issued was handed to George Weatinghouse. Behind that simple an- nooncement lies a romantic story of straggle and achievement which reads almost like fiction. The average pas­senger in the fast train flying along at 80 or 60 miles an hour rarely stops to think that not only is he safe­guarded to a wonderful extent by the silent, unseen airbrake, but that ex-

'-¥eung--We8tinghouse-^ftrst -planned to operate the train-length brake by steam from the engine, but discovered that in warm weather the steam would be condensed before reaching the hindmost car, while in winter the con­densed steam would freeze. He saw that some other agency would be re­quired, but what to use for the pur­pose he could not conceive.

While he was puzzling over this question one day, a young woman sol- ! iciting subscriptions for a magazine j

About half a mile from the station was a grade crossing unprotected by gates. As luck would have it, a team­ster with heavily loaded wagon was

It is strange to think that we owe the safety and speed of modern rail­way travel to the chance reading by George Westlnghouse of an article in a magazine. As the employe of his father in a machine shop at Schenect­ady, N. Y., he had been working for some time on an idea for a train brake that could be operated from the loco­motive instead of the old scheme of whistling a signal for the several trainmen to get busy with the hand Brakes on the individual cars.

In the old days the lapse of time be- Jfcween the “down brakes” whistle and * » e clamping of the brake shoes on the wheels was responsible for many Jmrlous accidents. Westinghouse’s or- fctoal idea was merely to save this |ttme by having the engineer work all |Khe brakes at once, rather than the Idea of applying additional power, and |Ubns permitting the use of larger and fto&vier cars. But the great passen­ge r and freight cars of today would Mot be possible under the old system Mf hand brakes.

article told of the use of compressed air in operating a drilling machine. He saw at once that if air could be con­veyed through 3000 feet of pipe to drive a drill, it could be carried the length of a railroad train and set the brakes firmly and instantaneously on the wheels of each car. His first great problem was solved, but not the prob-

There’s Tomorrowa Touch All Cole Does Today

TH O SE who think only in the present, live in the past. It’s the touch o f tomorrow in what is done today that identifies advancement.

To sense the trend o f the future and be the first to give it tangible expression has been Cole’s aim.Season after season— year after year, his advanced creations in motor car design have forecast the styles o f the future.

The cy/ero-ElGHT became instaaitly the fore­runner o f a new vogue. It established new stan­dards o f design and performance.For ten years Cole had been laying the founda­tions for this epoch-making creation, devoting the last five years exclusively to the Eight.He was one of the first two American manufac­turers to build an eight-cylinder car— the first to

apply to it the principles of aerotype engineering.Satisfied only with that which others had not yet achieved, Cole has. put a touch of tomorrow in all that he has done.It is that which gives the cv/ero-EiGHT the prestige of advanced achievement. It is that which has given the Cole product its distinction from the very beginning.

Mr. F’airfield, who like Lincoln, comes from the great Middle West, has earned the title of “Honest Abe” not only be­cause of resemblance in looks and speech but also because of his resem­blance in character and policy. Mr.Fairfield is a prominent educatoi *n his own state having served many years as president of a college before enter­ing congress. The fund of knowledge be gained during his term as member of the war Congress he brings to the solution of our peace problems. Those wbo are trying to solve the problems facing each community will welcome feds inspiring address.

When it is considered that any one of these lectures if heard in a large 1 city would cost what the lucky five hundred purchasers of first season tic- j feets for the Community Chautauqua j pay, $2.20, it is readily understood why ! this is tbe greatest five day Chautau­qua in America. For this $2.20 en­titles the holder to admission to all | these great lectures, to all band con- [ certs and entertainment features, twice a day for five days. After the first five hundred tickets are sold, the season ticket admission is $2.75 in­cluding war tax, so that it is worth while to buy early and make the sav­

You never tasted such a cigarette! Bite is elimi­nated and there is a cheerful absence of any unpleasant cigaretty after-taste or any un­pleasant cigaretty odor!

Camels are made of an expert blend of choice Turkish and choice Domestic tobaccos and are smooth and mild, but have that desirable full- body and certainly hand out satisfaction in generous measure. You will prefer this Camel blend to either kind o f tobacco smoked straight!

Give Camels the stiffest tryout, then compare them with any cigarette in the world at any price for quality,

flavor, satisfaction. N o matter h ow l ib e r a l ly y o u sm ok e Cam els th e y w il l n o t t i re y o u r taste!
