* THE NEXT SENATOR FROM MICHIGAN.
PS
HENRY FORD APPARENTLY IS THE NAME of the
** next United States senator to bo elected In Michigan.
All signs point to an overwhelming vote for Mr. Ford.
President Wilson Is for him. Democrats, republicans,
prohibitionists are for hint. Organized labor is for him.
The ordinary man, the man who does his own thinking
In his own way and refuses to be dlctatod to by arty
overlord, Is for Henry Ford to the utmost.
Somebody has said that Mr. Ford lacks statesman-
ship qualities. That Is Just about as stale and flat In
argumentative value as the ancient notion that n wom-
an should not vote "because her place Is in the homo.
We don't know whether Mr. Ford can moke a speech
or not, and we don't care. We don’t know whether ho
can write a learned and labored dissertation on the tar-
iff, and we don't cure. We understand that he never
“BEYOND THE ALPS LIES ITALY.”

IT 18 A DISTINCT RELIEF to have our attention
I turned from the western front for a few days in the
direction of Italy. News from the western front has
become somewhat of a sameness, despite desperate en-
counters now and then. Until recently some of us had
half forgotten that Italy is in the war, but the splen-
did fighters under General Diaz have brought us
back to the realization that by no means all the big
doings are taking place on the French front.
Moreover, the news of tho Italian victory is big
with moaning. The Austro-Hungarian empire has no
excuse for being and never did have. It is made up
of nearly a hundred nationalities. To weld all those
peoples Into a composite whole that will hang to-
gether in harmony Is an Impossibility.
Ever since Louis Kossuth and his Hungarians
were betrayed through treachery and defeated, sev-
enty years ago, (he Austrian empire has been in the
throes of gradual disintegration.
For more than a generation Austria-Hungary has
been the rottenest governmental conglomeration In Eu-
rope, The frayed strings that held it together have be-
some feebler and feebler even In poaco times, and the war
already has loft the so-called empire—merely a vassal
of Germany—a tattered scarecrow amongst the nations.
The Italian victory simply hastens the dissolution of
the decaying vassal state. One of the surest things re-
sulting from the war will be the disappearance of Aus-
tria-Hungary from the map. The house of Hapsburg is
saw the interior decorations of a college, and that too li I an'(,'ever haH l)(,en a hoodoo unto Itself. Happily, and
Immaterial. We do know that he is a genius as an or- jU8tlce, it has remained for the Italians to shoot
_ . _ 1 11 d i. „ n n.l hnnuo mrtrx In'll Ilf* 1
ganlzer, that he Is an upright and honest man, that he
has risen from the ranks through his own Initiative and
Integrity, that he is of broad-gauge mind and of deep
and soulful human sympathy. Nothing else matters.
This country Is getting over the old and asinine Idea
that to be an acceptable senator or congressman a man
must be able to spellbind the crossrouds with Ills spoken
eloquence. In years past many a superior mail hns
been kept out of our national legislature simply be-
cause some inferior fellow runntng In opposition was
able to make a hurrah speech and win the crowd.
Moutli-abillty Is far below par In our politics these
days, and it Is sinking farther and farther. Most of
the really effective work In the senate Is done In the
committee rooms anyway, and a senator does not need
to possess forensic eloquence to make good thpre. More-
over, back of the committee-work ability of the worth-
while senator lies a lifetime of Integrity and a solid
stock of native ability, Common horse sense, man-size
gumption, which after all !h the main qualification for
statesmanship.
We make bold to venture the prediction that here-
after in this country the people are going to send to
congress men of head-ability rather than men of mouth-
ablllly, men of hoart-and-soul qualifications rather
than men of whoop-and-hurrah characteristics.
When the great Hungarian patriot Louis Kossuth
was in this country nearly seventy years ago he said in
n speech at St. Louis, "The Justness of my cause Is my
eloquence." Henry Ford and other good and able
men may well adopt that slogan and 'et It go at that.
One of the old automobile Jokes was lo the effect
that there wore only two kinds of automobiles, the Ford
and the Can't Afford. Michigan can't afford to keep
Ford out of the senate, since the place Is seeking the
man and needs him. And our guess Is that Michigan
, .wpn't afford to have Ford defeated. “Senator Ford"
sounds good.

Itev. John Cavnnuugh, C. S. C.. president of Notre
Dame University, suys: "The War Savings campaign
will be powerful In winning tills gigantic contest. Did
you ever see a football game? Did you notice how
much depended on the rooting from the sidelines and tho
bleuchers ? Well, the War Savings campaign Is an
Ideal form of rooting for 'our side.' It disheartens
the enemy as much as It cheers and
'our side.' The duty of patriotism lies equally on
young and old, rich and poor, on clergy and laymen.
There Is no reason In ereatlon for selecting our soldiers
among men between HI and 31 except that they are bet-
ter able to do the physical work of the war than tho
rest of us. But the work <W war must be done In
homes. In churches, in schools, and in factories, ns well
as upon the battle fields of the world. And the worst
form of slacker—because he has not even the poor,
silly reason of fear to excuse him—is the sleeker who la
ca!led<upon to make only the minor sacrifice of money
and has not the heart to make it."

Is H h
THRIFT STAMP 18 NOT A JOKE.
mi
IF IT BE TRUE THAT any Tulsans regard the thrift
I stamp as a joke, let them take counsel of themselves
forthwith and overcome their error. Some of the local
solicitors In the war-savings campaign have reported
that there are citizens who do not take the matter se-
riously.
The war-savings stamp is the exact opposite of a
Joke. It Is a serious proposition In every way. Let no-
body despise It because It is a small investment. In the
aggregate It means two billions of dollars raised this
year to hurl at the Huns in the shape of bombs and
bullets. The tnan or woman who refuses to invest in
these savings is losing two fine chances. One is a
chance to help the war cause at a critical time. The
other is a chance to Invest a little money In the safest
proposition possible, paying compound interest at a
fair rate.
Perhaps some persons are inclined to say, “Oh, well,
this 1h too small a business for me. Why should I buy
chicken-feed investments?" But these same “chicken-
feed" investments go in each instance to help make up
the big aggregate. Don't continue to “let George do It."
Letting George do It Is the essence of slackeriem. Let-
ting George go to the war in your place is one kind
of slackerlsm. Letting George buy the Liberty bonds
we express our firm adherence -to the political
is another. Letting George buy the thrift stamps Is
still another.
The gourmand who gorges on beefsteaks and white
bread has the "let George do It” habit, the slackerlstic
attitude. He Ik despised by all decent folk. The fellow
who won't Invest In war-savings stamps because he re-
gards such a small investment as a joke is another sort
of let-George-do-it individual who is to be pitied if not
despised. His thinker needs to be overhauled and oiled,
invigorates | The wheels Inside his skull have become clogged with
mental maggots.
Invest in war-savings stamps as a serious duty to
yourself and your race.

DECORATING THE BUCKS.
Hi
IT IS NOT EVERY MAN THAT goes to war who gets a
1 chance to have medals pinned on his chest, but there
Is one nice thing about that part of the military of the
allies—anybody who gets the chance to earn a decora-
tion, and does earn It, can wear ail kinds of gold and
bronze and silver insignia.
That brings It down to a free-for-all proposition
with the boys in France. When young Major T. R. was
decorated the other day, some colonels also shared in
the day's events; but the big thing about It was that
around taking hold wherever thev like, no quarantine more buck privates were decorated than all the majors
and colonels put together. And that is as it should be,
each according to his deeds on the field of action. It
used to he that It took a soldier with what is known
as a “pull" to gather in any great lot of metals and
medals. The rule prevailed pretty generally the world
over. Now It is different, except In the case of the
kaiser. Poor old Hill is still sticking insignia on the
You may have trouble with your
digestion as soon- as you. “bolt" a
meal, though this very often Is true
if you are a naturally dyspeptic per-
son. Hut this does not mean that
you are going to be free for the rest
of your days from pain in the stom-
ach.
Pain may come to you one or two
hours after you have eaten or five or
Mx hours later, or it may not come
to you for days. You then have
what is called a delayed pain, which
may grip you in the middle of the
rdght and take you by surprise.
Delayed pain usually occurs in the
abdomen—the regions of the stom-
ach and intestines. From here the
pain sometimes radiates toward the
spinal column and works through the
spaces of the spinal bones around
the ribs. When the pain is as ex-
tensive as this, it Is usually very se-
vere and la accompanied by a burn-
ing sensation, cramps, a" sort of
•wlsting In the abdominal regions.
It is apt also to be quite as agoniz-
ing as extensive.
Symptoms and Causes.
The features of the sufferer may
be drawn, his face pale, and he may
• xperience a feeling of weakness and
irritability to the extent of collapse.
This may be a neuralgic pain in the
stomach, and often makes the pa-
tient moan and curl up in bed, hold
his stomach with both hands, while
cold perspiration covers his fare
His feet become cold, and altogether
he is in a state of torture.
The sufferer may also have an ex-
cessive secretion of saliva which is
an automatic aim of the human
mechanism to neutralize some of the
overabundant gas present. This is
accompanied by pains in the breast-
bone. A feeling of nausea often
culminatos in actual vomiting, and
when this stage Is reached the pa-
tient almost invariably gets.relief.
The agony of pain like this can at
once be decreased if the patient is
given food. If you have seen a per-
son who suffers from digestion dis-
orders you have probably noticed
that if he Is given water to drink and
a few morsels to eat the pain sub-
sides. Many persons who have so
deteriorated in health as to have fre-
quent attacks of gastiMc trouble can
overcome their ailments very largely
if they permit digestion to go every
minute of the day. To do this, dis-
tribute your meals throughout the
day so that instead of having three
meals, have six. A little food, fre-
quently taken, is much better than
a great deal of food taken a few
times a day.
It must be remembered, to be flure,
that pain of this sort does not come
to attack the individual over night.

or oxidize the food, and prepare it
for absorption into the Issues and
muscles.
Some Simple Aids.
In addition to hard work and lack |
of fresh air, you will also notice that
food Is Incorrectly eaten, and as a re-
sult. poorly digested by a person In-
clined to overwork. Sufficient time
Is usually not given to mastication,
and the result is that food is swal-
lowed in "chunks."
Not only Is the food swallowed In
walk taken, but you perhaps apply
yourself quickly and suddenly to your
work and neglect your hodily welfare
and so allow mischief to begin. Thus
It happens that you are the cause of
your own downfall. You may feel a
burning sensation "once in a while,’
and try to ignore it, and, although
you perhaps work without sufficient
exercise and fresh air from day to
day “without feeling bad" the day of
reckoning is bound to come.
If the taking of food does not give
relief when the pain attacks you,
take some alkaline solution such as
chalk, magnesia or bicarbonate of
soda. These wfl neutralize much of
the surplus acid in your mechanism
and thus give you relief. Of these
powders, bicarbonate of soda is best
to take, for that, creates the quickest
action; it works In about ten min-

from shores of the United States, Just a few days ago
it was given out that more than 700,000 soldiers hud
been taken over. A little later It was 900.000. Now It
is more than 000,000. And with the Hun not sink-

gave him credit for a year ago,

“THE JARR FAMILY'
ROY L. McCARDELL
By BOY L. McCAKDELL.
Copyright 1918. by the I’ress Pub-
lishing Company.
Having been given a summons for
speeding to serve on young Mr. Al-
fred Bullwinkle. Mr. Jarr thought
It best to make It the end of a per-
fect day for the slacking young
speed merchant by taking the sum-
mons to him.
He knew that young Mr. Bull-
winkle would stop with Mrs. .larr,
Mrs. Clara Mudridge-Rmlth and the
two Cackleberry girls at that ex-
clusive roadhouse, Cheese Hill Inn.
Once there, they would be so long
In being served that Mr. Jarr knew
he could reach the rendezvous of
the motoring smart set by trolley In
plenty of time, and so it proved.
In this Mr. Jarr was acting the
part of a real friend. A real friend
will go miles out of his way to bring
bad news.
Mr. Jarr came over to the table
where the party he sought were
seated, and when the Jazz band
ceased for a moment In shattering
the air. he gave the summons.
"Thought I'd bring It nut to yon."
he said merrily, "for. a* this Is
about your tenth offense in violating
the speed laws, you'll probably get
a prison sentence’"
But young Mr. Bullwinkle never
flinched Possibly he thought all
the comfort of a modern American
jail, with Welfare Brotherhood
privileges, was to be preferred to
1 would have run on first speed and
let those motor cops summon me
themselves. Their motorcycles can
only make ninety or a hundred miles
an hour at best. But 1 never thought
of It.”
This was (rue enough—young Mr.
Bullwinkle never thought. He never
tried to think.
He never flinched either at that
dread moment when the waiter
brought the check. He never even
asked Mr. Jarr to "take care of it,"
as a thinker might have done under
the circumstances. He met the
check with a counter-chcck. so to
speak, from hiz pocket checkbook,
and smiled and smiled and was a
slacker still.
He sent such a generous tip over
to the jazz band that those indefatig-
able artists jazzed with such re-
newed vigor those present could not
hear themselves speak. However,
nothing of importance was lost to
the world.
When the manager came to thank
young Mr Bullwinkle for his patron-
age. treating him almost like an
equal, young Mr Bullwinkle was
still so happy In the thought of the
peaeeful-shelter of Jail that beckoned
him to safety that he was most af-
fable In turn.
Maybe you won’t see much of
me this summer, though," he said.
"I may he In the next draft" here
he shuddered—“unless something
happens." and here he looked at Mr
, "Isn't the war dreadful?" My hus- j
; band says the war taxes are just i
1 ruining him," said Mrs. Muldridge- j
Smith, to show that, as a wealthy
man's wife, she also bore the bur-
dens tho rich endure.
"It’s something fierce!" young Mr.
Bullwinkle agree. "When my last
! chauffeur disappeared with one of
| my cars last week 1 felt rather re-
lieved about It. They sny there's to j
j be a law that will allow only 100 |
! gallons of gasoline a month to own- .
I ers to pleasure cars."
| "But aren't we going out to your j
| rflodel farm to look at the portable 1
! dugouts you are digging there?" I
: asked Mr. Jarr, who felt his day !
I spoiled because he had evidently ;
done young Mr. Bullwinkle a favor !
; by bringing him the summons for i
speeding. Besides, Mr Jarr had i
been Jazzed till his head ached and j
his nerves were on edge
"Why, I forgot that my farm fore- 1
i man telephoned me that he could j
dig dugouts, hut they wouldn't be
, portable," remarked young Mr. Bull-
winkle. "So let's enjoy ourselves j
; here."
The musical boilermakers stopped :
for a moment to rest up as he said ;
j this, and a malicious idea occurred ]
i to Mr. Jarr.
j "Say," he whispered, I hear that
! old Offenders of the speed laws are I
