Children need no urging to take It They love Its rich, fruity flavor. Nothing can compete with It as a gentle, but certain laxative, and it goes further than this. It gives tone and strength to the stomach and bowels so these organs continue to act normally, of their own accord. It stlmu-Iste- s the appetite, helps digestion. A Kansas mother, Mrs. Dana CIO Monroe St, Topeka, says: "Bonnie B.

TIMES-NEW- JJamel lor j ,-- Devastation by Lemming The Norwegian lemmings, small creatures of the mouse tribe that live in the mountainous districts of the Scandinavian countries, are not ed for the strange migrations they make at certain intervals. At these times they travel In great masses from the center of Norway to the east and west, leaving desolation in their wake. When they reach the coast they fling themselves Into the sea to die. Some are always left behind, however, to propagate their race, but this does not need to be a large number, as they breed very rapidly. More Wheat Land in Ireland million acres more of wheat land in Ireland have been put tinder the plow than last year as a of the new wheat quota. This rjjiilt was declared by Sir Boyd Merriman, solicitor general, at a Unionist fete .at Fort Castle, near Berwick. He said that the remarkable recovery of the country in the last year and the gapat war loan conversion scheme showed that the country was not down and out. He believed that the wheat quota would end in farmers selling wheat at less than the cost of production. Half a The Parade "Do you enjoy a parade?" Senator "Immensely," answered Sorghum.

Webster was born on a New Hampshire farm January 18, 1782 so this year is the one hundred and fifth anniversary of his birth as well as the seventieth anniversary of his famous speech. His parents were poor, but they were determined their son should have an education. Accordingly, Webster was entered first at Exeter and then. In 1797, at Dartmouth college. After winning his degree ht served briefly as schoolmaster at Fryeburg, Maine. But In 1804 he took the decisive step and went to Boston, where he entered the law office of Christopher Gore, an excellent lawyer who saw In Webster qualifications far beyond those of an ordinary c) HARma law clerk.

For it was on a Sunday morning, October 24, 1852, that death came for Daniel Webster1 the "godlike Webster" one of his once called him. contemporaries With his wife and his last remaining son beside his bed and knowing that the end was near, he half-rosFrom the lips whose eloquence had played upon the emotions of millions came the final words: "I still live I" And thus he passed prophetic Judgment upon his own career. For this man who had aspired to the Presidency and had twice failed Is remembered and will be remembered when lesser men who gained that goal are long since forgotten. He Is remembered as the greatest defender of the Constitution of the United States for, in the words of a recent biographer, Gamaliel Bradford, "So long as these states hold together in a unified government, so long as the Stars and Stripes float over a great American Republic, so long should the citizens of that Republic, of whatsoever origin or creed, remember that few men did more to establish or maintain their country than Daniel Webster." But even if he were not remembered for what he did, he would still be remembered for what he was "the Demosthenes of America," even though more than a century has passed since Webster stood In the United States senate and participated in the debate which grew out of a resolution introduced by Senator Foote of Con necticut which had to do with the sale of public lands in the West. Comparatively unimportant in Itself, the subject of the resolution was made the excuse for a sectional controversy between Webster and Senator ITayne of South Carolina in which the doctrine of nullification of federal ' Replying totiaijne TROM-TH- i- once-glorio- e. ,' VX , i Try Lydla E.

John Walker of 106 North Johnson street, Big Springs, Texas, would like to reply to Admiral Sims' statement that the Spanish War lasted only 114 days. More than 200,000 engaged in it. Nearly all the men have pensions costing now $119,000,000 a year. According to Admiral Sims, that Is a disgrace. John Walker says he draws a pension as a Spanish War veteran, he served in the Spanish-AmericaWar in 1898, the Philippine insurrection in 1899, all of 1900 and up to June 3, 1901, and calls that more than 114 days. Mr. Walker cannot understand why Admiral Sims, retired, should get a good big pension, whereas he is begrudged very small pension. In the opinion of this writer all pensions, honorably acquired, arej good for the country. They put cash where it is needed, and that's as important as scattering rain where it is needed.

Premier Mussolini, talking to Italian lawyers, said lawyers made Roman law, and that law made Rome great. He placed lawyers above poets and philosophers, but added that Fascism respects culture. "Fascism never has made philosophers drink hemlock," said he, referring to Socrates' ending long ago. In his high opinion of lawyers, Mussolini differs from an earlier autocrat, Peter the Great. He expressed amazement, seeing flocks of lawyers with powdered wigs in London, and said: "There are only two lawyers in St. Petersburg, and I am going to hang one of them as soon as I get back."
