' And now We have be Talkless Tel-
ephone invented for the convenienco
of' deaf mutes The new instrument
conveys messages by means of an
alphabet printed on electric light
bulbs The operator presses the
' keys of a special typewriter electric-
ally wired and the correspotullng
letters are lighted opeling out the
message Thus day by day we learn
' to adjust ourselves and render mis-
fortune less burdensome
The Talkless Telephone will put
joy into many a heart as it will In-
crease the usefulness of thousands
heavily handicapped by nature One
of these days when humanity learns
more to appreciate its kinship the
blind the deaf and the lame will
find little handicap in their affliction
Possibly no man Pince time began
haw done more along this line than
Henry 'Ford who In his genius for
otganized efficiency has rendered the
earning capacity of the man 'with one
arm 'equal to that of the man with
two- bringing the weak and strong
- on a parity
To date our thoughtlessness and
our party patronage system has
forced into the background such Im-
portant service The spoils theory Is
so entrenched that even the govern-
ment scrub woman's job is dependent
tn berT ability to swing oic cast the
vote Slowly however the govern-
ment must come to see thattivvorld
As suffering a tremerdous economic
' Waste In the vast power rendered use-
' less by our failure to adjust it- This
: fact stimulated by at least a sem-
blance of the huiran touch holds
: bright and clear the lamp of hope for
thousands of outAfellow cremtnneil
who have suffered so long a time

BOOZE IN TEXT BOOKS
We have recited the facts before
of the school telichett tri 'New—York
state who once -found one of her
boys coming to school drunk When
she questioned him he moduced a 1
card generously speckled with punch 1
cs which he: told hecwita given to
Loys-by the corner saloon- the boy
who had the most—punches - on
card at the end of the month to re-
ceive a prize
The saloon was deliberateli mak
ing drinkers out of mere children in
ordet to create a continuous supply
of patrons for its nasty business and
make drunkards out or these small
drinkers
- The school is a fertile field for
all kinds of propaganda' good and
bud alike The liquor business is
quite is well aware of that gact
today as it was when a saloon dotted
almost every corner and crowded in
as near as the law allowed to the
school bowies A member Of the
Chicago school board Mr Hart Han-
' son—all honor to him—has protested
against the sinister forces opposing
'prohibition Which appears are trying
' ' to spread their propogsnda in the
4: public schools of that city
Mr Hanson referred to an algebra
' VII book already used in the Carl
1 Schurz high school of Chicago that
according to Mr Hanson is all clut-
' tered with whisky beer and wine ex-
amples "The book looks like a bar-
"' tenecr's Gland" Mr Hanson said
There I isn't a depth to which the
booze business will not stoop to bring
Its business back The Chicago text
book incident Isn't quite so crude nor
to revolting as the New York story

MOTOR COMPANY ENJOYS
LARGEST FOREIGN TRADE
The improving economic situation
- abroad is reflected in the September
reports from the managers of the
) Ford Motor company's foreign and
associated companies These show
that this is the biggest year the
' Ford Motor Company has ever en-
joyed in the foreign gold
Although the reports cover only
nine months of the year the4mles of
Ford units - cars trucks and tractors
' are already close to the record fr
the entire year of 1923 From Jan-
vary 1 to October 1 1924 the sale
of Ford products overseas amounted
to 138291 cars and trucks and 10-
803 Fordson tractors These figures
do not include the production of the
Ford Motor Car company of Caaada
Ltd which supplies Ford products
to all parts of the Briti1 Empire ex-
cept the British Isles
If trucks are any Darometer of
economia conditions then foreign com-
merce is coming back rapidly for the
January to October sales have run
over 13000 ahead of the entire year's
record of 1923
Argentina leads the export field in
the purchase of Ford cars having
taken nearly 10000 since the first
of the year—a considerable gain over
the first three-quarters of last year
With the revolution in the state
ot Sao Paulo Brazil slowed up bus-
iness all over the country the re-
covery has been very swift and 1741
'Ford units were sold there during
September The Ford plant at Sao
Paulo was of course shut down dur-
ing the revolution
The tractor market continues to
improve all over the world and there
are few places where substantial
gains have not been mSde In the
Scandanavian cortries Fordson trac-
tor sales are over three times as high
r for the whole last year and in
gelgium Holland and the Near East
the record is within a very small mar-
On of being as good The market in
Germany also is improving and a
recent order for 500 Fordsons from
that country has just been filled mak-
tion prevailed in Holland where Ford
business increased so rap!dly that tlie
tnga total of 1500 so far this year
The increasing demaud for Ford
products in Europe has made it neces-
sary to open a new Ford plant at
Stockholm although a year ago all
this territory was handled by the
Copenhagen plant A similar situa-
Antwerp plant could n71ongertoke
care of it and Rotterdam got a new
Ford factory of its own Also a
branch has recently leen established
at Santiago Chili '

A bad back makes you gloomy
Can't be happy with continual back-
ache The aches and pains of a bad back
Are frequently due to weak kid-
neys 'Doan's Pills are recommended for
wesk kidney!
So Tecumseh citizens testify 7 -
Ask your neighbor!
Mrs R Richards Tecumseh says:
"There was a bearing down ache in
my back which wore me gut This
continued for so long that I bought
Doan's Pills at Klapp' s Drug Store
and the trouble entirely disappeared"
(Stateinent given February 24 1917)
On April 28 1921 Mrs Richards
said: "The cure Doan's Pills made for
me has lasted"
Price 00c at all dealers Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan's Pills — the same that Mrs
Richards bad Foster-Milburn Co
