; . THL EACUE OF NATIONS
,Article Dictated Shortly Before the
Ex-President's Death
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 13.-(From
the Kansas City Star.)-An article
on the league of nations, the last con
tribution that Col. Theodore Roose
volt prepared for the Kansas City
;'Star, appeared in that paper today.
...he. editorial was dictated Friday,
:1January 3, and his secretary expected
- tb take the typed copy to him for
correction on the following Monday.
.Instead she was notified early that
morning of his death.
The article follows:
"It is, of course, a serious misfor
tune that our people are not getting
A clear idea of what is happening on
the other side. For the moment the
point as to which we are foggy is the
league of nations. We, all of us, only
we wish to be sure that it will help
and not hinder the cause of world
peace and justice. There is not a
young man in this country who has
fought, or an old man who has seen
those lear to him fight, who does not
wish to minimize the chance of fu
ture war. But there is not a man of
sense who does not know that in any
such movement if too much is at
tempted the result is either failure
or worse than failure.

and the utterances of acquiescence in

Kidney dlisease is no respecter of
persons. A majority of the ills af
flicting people today can be traced
back to kidney trouble.
Trhe kidneys are the most import
ant organs of the body. They are
the filterers, the purifiers, of your
blood.
Kidney disease is usually indicatedl
by weariness, -sleeplessness, nervous
ness, despondency, backache, stomach
trouble, pain in loins aridl lower ab
domien, gall stones, gravel, rheuma
tism, sciatica and lumbago.
All these derangements are nature's
signals to warn you that the kidneys
need help. You should use GOLD

teen points. Some of the fourteen
points will probably have to be con
strued as having a mischievous sen
tence, a smaller number might be
construed as being harmless, and one
or two even as beneficial, but nobody
knows what Mr. Wilson really means
by them, and so all talk of adopting
them as basis for a peace or league
is nonsense, and if the talker is in
telligent, it is insincere nonsense to
boot. Mr. Wilson's recent utterances
have given us absolutely no clue as
to whether he really intends that at
this moment we shall admit Russia,
Germany--with whom, incidentally,
we are still waging war-Turkey,
China and Mexico in to a league on a
full equality with ourselves. Mr. Taft
has recently defined the purposes of
the league and the limitations under
which it would act, in a way that en
ables most of us to say we very
heartily agree in principle with his
theory and can, without doubt, come
to an agreement on specific details.
"Would it not be well to begin with
the league which we actually have
in existence? The league of the Allies
who have fought through this great
war? Let us at the peace table .see
that real justice is done as among
those Allies and that while the stern
est reparation is demanded from our
foes for such horrors as those com
mitted in Belgium, Northern France,
Armenia and the sinking of the Lusi
tania, nothing should be (lone in the
spirit of mere vengeance. Then let
us agree to extend the privileges of

Bennett For Years Had Big Part in
Building Battleships
STILL IS CONSERV4TIVE
Tells of Great Good Tanlac Did Him
and Says "I Only Took Two
Bottles."
For twelve yeais William *en
nett was foreman at the br~uoklyn
Navy Yard, Uncle Sam's hive of in
dustry for the country's defense,
where thousands of skilled worknen
toil at the nation's vital work. ,1 It
was from the ways of this great yard
that some of our greatest dread
naughts were launched. Mr. Bennett
had a part in this work and there he
saw the evolution of the American
Navy worked out. Today Mr. Ben
ged 68, is retired, living at 600
Gates Ave., Brooklyn. He is still the
conservative, carefully speaking man
of the Navy Yard days, 'and so the
story he secently told will have add
ed force.
"For a long time," Mr. Bennett ex
plained, "I kept having a pain in my
chest, and a full, heavy, bloated feel
ing in my stomach and abdomen. It
felt as if I had eaten something. that
disagreed with me, but I couldn't tell
what. My food (lid not digest, but
seemed to sour. and lie like a lump.
I got so I couldn't eat vegetables at
all. I lived on eggs and milk, and
lots of times I didn't have an appe
tite even for that diet. Besides, I
had night sweats- and I could not
really rest .more than an hour or two
at night, and then only when I was
all tired out. I had to ,be so tired
I just dropped off to sleep. I took
lots of medicine and was treated many
times, but I just kept on feeling bad.
But now," Mr. Bennett continued, "I
feel better in every 'way. I can sleep
all night long. .1 have a good appe
tite and can eat anything with pleas
ure because my stomach is easy and
does not distress me, but digests my
food. I feel so good I make it a rule
to walk twenty to thirty blocks each
day.
"What did this for me? Why, Tan
lac. So many people told me about
Tanlac that, though I really did not
believe all of it because I didn't think
and medicine could be as good as they
said it was, I decided to try it. And
I only took two bottles," he added.
Tamlac, the reconstructive, system
purifier and tonic, is designed to go
to the root of such troubles as Mr.
Bennett had. It is designed to create
real digestion and assimilation of food
that is good and nourishing and so
build strength through blood and tis
sues.
Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is sold
by Dickson's Drug Store, Manning;
H. W. Nettles, Jordan; Shaw & Plow
den, New Zion: Farmers' Supply Co.,
Silver; D. C. Rhame, Summerton.
the league as rapidly as their conduct
warrants it to other nations, doubt
less discriminating between those
who would have a guiding part in the
league and the weak nations who
would be entitled to the privileges in
membership but who would not be en
titled to a guiding voice in the coun
cils. Let each nation reserve to it
self and for its own decision, and let
it clearly set forth questions which
are non-justifiable. Let nothing be
(lone that will interfere with our pre
paring for our own defense by intro
ducing a system of universal obli
gatory military training.
Finally, make it perfectly clear
that we do not intend to take a posi
tion of an international meddlesome
matter. The American people do not
wish to go into an overseas war un
less for a very great cause and
where the issue is absolutely plain.
Therefore, wo (do not wish to under
take the responsibility of sending our
gallant young men to (lie in obscure
fights in the Balkans or in Centrail
Europe, or' in a war we do not ap
prove of. Moreover the American
people (d0 not intendI to give up the
Monroe dloctrine. Let civilizedl Eu
rope andl Asia introdluce some kind
of police system in the weak andl dis
ordIerly countries at their threholds.
But let the United States treat Mex..
ico as our Balkan peninsular and re
fuse to allowv European or Asiatic
ow~ers to interfere on this continent
in any, way that implies permanent
or sem i- permannent possession. Every
one of our Allies will with delight
grant this request if President Wil
son chooses to make It, and it will
be a great misfortune if it is not
SUMING UiP THE [VIDENDE
Many Manning People Have Been
Called as Witnesses.
Week after week has been publish

people who have endured nmany forms

Here's one more Manning case.
W. N. Hi, says: "About two
years ago I was troubled with my
kidneyn. There were pains ""ros
the small of my back andl it felt as
if someone were sticking a knife into
me. My nerves were all unstrung
andl often times I had dizzy snells.
I felt as if I wantedl to sleen all the
time. A friend recommended Doan 's
Kiriney Pills so I bough t some at
Dickson's Drug Store. Donn's Kid

trouble and I haven't been bothered
