In the domand for reaxonnble preparedness the Administra tion has followed, not led. Those who demanded more adequate forces were flret described as "nirvous and excited." Only about a year and a half 'p. go we were told that the quesiion of preparedne a was not a press ing one; that the country had been misinformed. Later, under the pressure of other leader ship, thia attitude was changed. The Administration, it was said, had "learned something," and it made a belated demand for an increased army. Even then, the demand was not prose cuted consistently and the pres sure exerted on Con.Trps with respect to other Administrative measures was notably absent. We are told that the defects revealed by the present mobili zation are due to the "system." But it was precisely such plain defects that under the constant warnings of recent years, with the whole world Intent on mJfl tary concerns, should have been studied and rectified. The Ad ministration has failed to dis charge its responsibilities. Ap parently, it is now seeking to meet political exigencies by its naval program. Hut it has im posed upon the country an in competent naval administration. From Mr. Hughes' speech of acceptance. F. W.

When that time comes to you, you know what tonic to take Cardui, the woman's tonic.

It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak, ailing women in its past half century of wonderful success, and it will do the same for you. You can't mako a mistake in taking The loinan's Tonic Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark., says: "I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth, for women. Before I began to take Cardui, I was so weak and nervous, and had such awful dizzy spells and a poor appetite. Now I feci as well and as strong as 1 ever did, and can eat most anything." Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers. Has Helped Thousand Tannin is) m m m m m m m m W. II. BUCIIER. Now for that 10,000 republican majority.
