want. I am sending you a picture of
her. Everybody says, "That is some
healthy looking baby.’ You have my
consent to show this letter.”—Mrs. C.
W. BENZ, 1313rd Ave., Altoona, Pa.
No woman can realize the joy and
happpiness this healthy babe brought
into the home of Mrs. Benz, unless they
have had a like experience.

"•/CAUSE OF
jJOE WAR
11TASHINGTON.—No American rights
If have been surrendered because of
the war and none of them will be
surrendered. This tersely expresses
the bastis of the Harding foreign policy
as outlined today by an authoritative
official df the new administration.
Although no positive assertion was
made, it was clearly indicate# that at
tlie proper time the United States
would have an influential spokesman
to present its cause before the league
and to stand rigidly for America’s
claim that it aided to bring about the
victory over Germany and will not sur-
render any American rights protected
by that victory.
When the time comes, it was de-
clared, the United States will be found
demanding: Recognition of a right to
a cable base on the Island of Yap, a
right now being contested by Japan
which has the mandate over Yap.
The right to oil privileges in Meso-
potamia extended to nations affiliated
with the League of Nations, a right
contested by Great Britain.
The spokesman for the administra-
tion today said it would not be the
policy of the administration to be at
all flamboyant or boastful or belliger-
ent in the handling of foreign prob-
lems growing out of the war and sub-
sequent treaty negotiations. But this
much he made plain: The rights of
the United States in world affairs ex-
ist today right here just as they ex-
isted on the day of the' armistice.
No one has surrendered any of these
rights; no one had any authority to
Surrender such rights.
The rights of the United States could
be altered or curtailed only through a
treaty properly negotiated and* rati-
fied ; so, far as the United States is
concerned there is no such treaty.

Of
Fifty Thousand Jobs on the Plum.Tree
ITPWARDS of 50,000 appointments
U to public offices, carrying salaries
aggregating more than $100,000,000 a
year, are to be made by President
Harding. Some of these have been
made, many others will be announ/ed
during the next few months, while
still others will be made as the terms
of present Democratic officeholders ex-
pire.
The first fruits from the shaking
of the .official “plum” tree were cabi-
net officers, whose salaries are $12,000
a year each. Others to come include
nearly a dozen ambassadors, whose
salaries are $17,500 each; many minis-
ters at $10,000 each; assistant secre-
taries, federal Judges, attorneys and
marshals, customs collectors, members
of various government boards and
commissions and postmasters by the
thousands.
In contrast to the huge patronage
roll of Mr. Handing are the appointive
perquisites of Vice President Coolidge,
whose immediate appointments com-
prise only his secretary, clerk, page
boy and a private telegraph operator.
Their salaries total $7,700 a year. The
vice president himself receives $12,000.
Among appointments are Seven
members of the shipping board at
$12,000 each; two members of the in-
terstate commerce commission at $12,-
000 each; five members of the federal
reserve board at $12,000 each; three
members of the tariff commission at
$7,500 each; two members of the fed-
eral trade commission at $10,000 each;
some of the nine members of the rall-
road labor board at $10,000, and four
members of the federal farm loan
board at $10,000 each.
Pour of the nine Supreme court Jus-
tices also njay be appointed by Presi-
dent Harding. Chief Justice White and
Associate Justices McKenna, Holmes
and Day now are eligible, by both age
and length of service, to voluntary re-
tirement. The salary of the chief Jus-
tice is $15,000, and that of associate
justices $14,500.
Postmasters comprise the bulk of
presidential patronage. There are
nearly 50,000 postmasterships remain-
ing In the presidential class, although
Mr. Wilson placed many in the civtl
service.
In various executive branches of the
government the Department of Justice
leads in patronage, with a roll of
about $130,000, including a solicitor'
general at $10,000, one assistant to the
attorney general at $9,000 and seven
other assistants at $7,500.
In the Treasury department the prin-
cipal plums are treasurer at $8,000
and the commissioner of Internal reve-
nue at $10,000.
Honoring the Soldier “Unknown Dead”
An Estonia •
“The first dose of Eatonic did me
wonders. 1 take it at meals and am
no longer bothered with Indigestion,"
writes Mrs. Ellen Harris.
Thousands of people, like this dear
lady, gratefully testify about Eatonic,
which does Its wonders by taking up
and carrying out the excess acidity and
gases which bring on indigestion,
heartburn, bloating, belching and fdod
repeating. Acid stomach also causes
about seventy other non-organic ail-
ments. Protect yourself. A big box
of Eatonic costs but a trifle with your
druggist’s guarantee.
tfONORS to the “Unknown Dead,” as
al in England and France seem to
have touched the American heart
Anyway, the American government is
to have a hand in the British and
French ceremonies. It will bestow the
congressional medal of honor upon the
two unknown heroes recently burled
with imposing ceremonies across the
sea. The bill as it passed the house
was as follows:
“A bill, (H. R. 1007®) authorizing be-
stowal upon the unknown, unidentified
British soldier buried In Westminster
Abbey and the nnknown, unidentified
French soldier bnried In the Arc de
Triomphe of the congressional medal
of honor. •
“Whereas Great Britain and France,
two of the allies of the United States
in the World war, have lately done
honor to the unknown dead of their
armies by placing with fitting cere-
mony the body of an unknown, uniden-
tified soldier, respectively In West-
minster Abbey and In the Arc de Tri-
omphe; and
“Whereas, animated by the same
spirit of comradeship in which we of
the American forces fought alongside
these allies, we desire to add whatever
we can to the imperishable glory won
by the deeds of our allies and com-
memorated In part by tills tribute to
their unknown dead: Now, therefoie,
“Be it enacted, etc., That the Presi-
dent of the United States be, and be
hereby is, authorized to bestow with
appropriate ceremonies, military and
civil, the congressional medal of hon-
or upon the unknown, unidentified
British soldier buried in Westminster
Abbey, London, England, and upon the
unknown, unidentified French soldier
burled in the Arc de Triomphe, Paris,
France.”
It now seems likely that we are to
Jiave the same sort of a ceremony
here In America—that an unknown
American soldier’s body will be brought
home from France and buried at Ar-
lington, or possibly even In the capital.
Army Fliers Eager to Bomb Warships
a RMY aviators are eager to fight a
£\ real duel with the navy. While
admirals and generals have been ad-
vancing and disputing claims that the
airplane Is far superior to the battle-
ship as a war weapon, army pilots
have flooded the office of the air serv-
ice director with pleas that the mat-
ter be settled under real war condi-
tions.
They have been all wrought up since
Josephus Daniels, then secretary of
the navy, offered to stand bareheaded
ou « deck of a battleship and let
Brigadier General Mitqheil, head of
the air service in the war, take a
crack at him with a bombing airplane.
Lieut. C. C. Moseley, victorious pilot
In the recent airplane race at Mineola
field for the Pulitzer trophy, would be
“UckWk pink” at the opportunity of
a real fight with the navy gunners.
“I flftnly believe,” he wrote his chief,
“that a bunch of those gobs would
bate about as much chance of hitting
one of us, especially If the old bat-
tleshfp were In motion, aa the prover-
bial snowball.”

Hubby did not like the appearance
>f the cook a friend had sent them,
bo, taking his wife aside, he said,
‘Don’t hire her.”
“But,” remonstrated his better half,
“just think of the reputation for cook-
ing she bears.”
“Never mind about her ability to
cook she hears,” said he. “We don’t
eat ’em anyway.”
Getting Practical.
“You know Bobbins, the tenor, who'
ased to sing to Miss Skeezicks that
every mom he Would bring her vio-
lets?”
“Yes; did he?”
“That’s what he did, and they got
married; and now they’re living in
the country where every morn he has
to bring her two buckets of water
and help wipe the dishes!”
Un-Merriment.
“Wouldn’t you like to see an old-
fashioned comic opera with a chorus
of merry villagers?”
“No,” replied the census expert. “It
would be too untrue to life. Every-
body seems to think that in order to
be happy he must move into town.
There’s no such thing as a merry vile
lager.”
Dangerous Game.
"Do you like golf?” asked one of
the players at a recent club tourna-
ment.
“Yes, but it’s a dangerous game,”
replied one of the semi-finalists.
“Dangerous ? Why ?”
“I took it up to take my mind off
my work; now I have to work hard
to take my mind off golf.”
“With a fast plane I would
feel perfectly secure to fly around
all day over the Atlantic fleet
and let them shoot at me with any-
thing they have—anything from a
popgun to a 10-lneh piece.” read a let-
ter from Gapt. Harvey Weir ‘Cook of
Fort Crook, Neb.
Army flyers claim they could sink
the biggest battleship with one direct
hit with a 1.100-pouni) bomb dropped
from an altitude of 9,000 feet. They
contend that the explosive would have
such force it would buckle In the
plates of the warship, making It Im-
possible to keep afloat.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root io
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as-
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two rises,
medium and large.

reat preparation send ten cents to Dr.
