Protracted meeting began in the Cedar Grove church last Sat urday evening, by the pastor, Rev. McManiman. President Wilson recognizes the newspapers as possessing the greatest of power. Which way is your favorite newspaper lead ing? We feel sorry for some of the city people who heard the call "Back to the landl" Perhaps a few of them may survive long enough to learn to farm. The "Funny" man's joke that the government at Washington is "run by water power" expres- ses truth, poetry, and comfort. May the mill never run dry.

The $1,000,000 said to have been given by the liquor dealers to fight the Anti Liquor League in this State, during the coming campaign, looks as if they thought "internal" combustion engines, instead of "water pow er," would be best for the coun try. Congress is to probe the ques tion of why there are so many unemployed. An exchange an swers the question when it says; "You may have noticed that there are three panhandlers at your back door to one who comes boldly up to the front door with a shovel to clear your sidewalk. We are pleased to notice in the Public Opinion, Chambersburg, that Roy C. Cromwell had a good sale at his home in Franklin coun ty on Tuesday, of last week. Horses sold as high as $226; cows, $75; hogs, $5 to $8. The farm implements brought fairly good prices. His sale amounted to $3,0G0. One of our esteemed subscrib ers informs us that he feels sure there is a secret organization a mong the lazier class . of young men in his community, to live off the "old folks" during the win ter months. These young fel lows are about the age when they feel a mustache beginning to tickle in other words, the goslin age when they know three times as much as the old man ever did or ever will know. A number of local farmers re ported to this office that they tested their seed corn last spring and planted only from such ears that showed largest percentage of germination, and that the small amount of trouble was re paid many times in the good stand of corn Some seemingly good ears are low in germinating vitality. Test by planting in lit tle squares in boxes, or by lay ing between wet cloths kept warm and moist, night and day. Number the squares to corres pond with the ear from which taken. Fact Evidence that can be verified. Fact is what we want. Opinion is not enough. Opinions differ. Here's a McConnellsburg fact. You can test it. F. M. Taylor, civil engineer, Water St, McConnellsburg, Pa., says: "I suffered from severe pains in my back and loins. I had weak kidneys, the action be ing somewnat irregulir. I was advised to use Doan's Kidney Pills by a friend at Burnt Cabin who told me how he bad been cured by them. I got a box and could notice a difference immed iately. Doan 's Kidney Pills gave me great relief. I always take them with me when 1 go out of towa because if I catch cold, I get a slight attack of the trouble. When this occurs I can always depend on Doan's Kidney Pills. I reccommend this remedy when ever I bear anyone suffering from back ache or kidney weakness. I confirm the endorsement I gave Doan's Kidney Pills some years ago. Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask tor a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Taylor had.
