PHILOSOPHY FROM
THE.FORD WEEKLY
"Pretty Soft" the Common Thought
When Speaking of Another's Job
Shown, in Timely Article. .
Nearly every man you meet will
give you the impression that he
thinks' the other man has an easier
job. "Pretty soft for him" is a
phrase which ought to be outlawed
from every respectable vocabulary.
If admitted at all. it should always
he under the most careful scrutiny.
The danger of it, as a germ of per
sonal cMscontent and di.-tress, is that
tdie man who use.-, it about another
rarely hears it used concerning him
self. " Yet. there is not a man in the
world, or a class of men. of "whom it
has not been said, "pretty s;ift for
them!"
The shopmen passing the office
window see a man sitting at a dek.
apparently doing nothing. They are
going home at 4::0. lie will b at
his desk until six maybe he will
ejje bacgk in the evening. The men
streaming out of the shops say
"pretty soft for him." And the man
at the"dek may say. "pretty .oft for
them." No douLt both parties could
make out a pretty good case before
any juiy. The men in the shop have
left their work in the shop "pretty
sort for them!" They have nothing
whatever to do with thfir job until
they get. back into the shop next day
"pretty soft for them!" If they
break a machine, t'.uy are not. re
quired to carry it home with them
in the evening and lix it "pretty
suit for them!" They have nothing
whatever to do with making the busi
ness meet between the cost of mater
ial and labor, the difficulty of ship
ments, and all thf rest; all they hav
to do is to do their day's work and
draw their, pay "pretty soft for
then;!"
The man in the o!"uo ha-n-i any
hours, if he is a responsible man. but
that is no occasion to sing "pretty
soft for him!" because as a uual
thing his hours are too numerous for
any schedule. If his work breaks
down, he take-; it home with him to
f'xe it. He may think he is leaving
it in hi desk, but it is in his head---tha'
is his "shop", by the way- ami
on his pillow. Mi work is not dene
in a dy because it isn't a day's
work; the next day and Hie next
month, with their preparations are
always crowding Into today, joggling
yesterday and la.t mouth who have
also come for tneir reparations.
Pretfv soft for hiirt!"
The truth is that everybody who
is connected .witn a serviceable
ness is carrying annul all tne work a
man ought to carry, and or.ie art
necessarily carrying more. The white
collar merely indicates the surround
ings in which a man works, not ihe
degree to which he works. The same
with blue jeans.
And monotony you will find mo-
notonv wherever voir go. A?k the
president of the 1'nited States; hf
will tell you something about the
ninnotciiy of his job. A-k the doc
tor; he will fell you that his life
pretty much a round of the same old
colds, the same old fevers, people be
ing born and people dying in the
same old wav. There is a great denl
f monotony ir. every profession.
which means, overv job. The teach
er's job is mot monotonous. The
writer just does the same thing over
and over again, with the same mo
tion of the writ. using the same
ft of muscles, as a man on a small
job in the shop might do. Life i
pretty lurch lh same thing all th-'

Feeling Fine Now. Hiller Says j
Tanlac Has ITo Equal Gains
Fifteen Pounds.
' For twenty-five years I never
knew what a well day was, bet a
vear and a half ago I began taking
.Tanlac and have enjoyed splendid
: health ever since," was the truly
remarkable statement made by Fred
! C Miller, well known contracting
I painter and paper hanger, living at
71 S J street, who has been a resident
of Lincoln, Nebraska, for forty years.
" finally got so weak and dun
down that I had to lay of? from my
.-. ork for days at a time," said Mr.
Miller, "but Tanlac has put me in
such good shape that I haven't lost
a bit of time since taking it. My ap
petite was very poor and what I did
manage to eat felt heavy in my
stomach and soured, forming gas,
which pressed up around my heart,
keeping me in misery nearly all the
time. I suffered from constipation,
having awful headaches and dizzy at
tacks, which lasted for hours at a
time, and 1 was also troubled with
sever pains in my left side. To cap
it all, I took the painters' colic, and
I just suffered terribly. My nerves
became so unstrung that many nights
I couldn't sleep a wink, and in the
mornings I was so tired out and had
such little energy that I could hardly
get about. I had to live on soups
and other light foods and fell off
until I weighed only one hundred
and thirty-five pounds, and although
I took many different medicines, my
coudition was rapidly becoming
worse.
"I road so many statements prais
ing Tanlac that i decided to try it
myself and it's lucky for me that I
did, for it has put an end to all my

uel T. King. 7 4 years old, a resident
of Joplin. Mo., appeared at the Unit
ed States disciplinary barracks at
Fort Leavenworth and asked that he
be locked up as a deserter or else that
his civil war record be cleared. Kinir
wept while telling his story to Lieut.
Colonel Ilosenbaum, assistant com
mandant of the prison. Col. Ilosen
baum refused to hold the aged veter
an and said the natter would be in
vestigated. Kin.? had documents to show that
he was honorably discharged Febru
ary 10, 1S65, on a surgeon's certifi
cate of disability issued by the ad
jutant general of Missouri. He also
showed papers from the bureau of
records and pensions in Washington,
which stated that he had twice de
serted in 1864, being convicted cf
desertion by a court-martial between
the time of the two alleged offenses.
Should King's record be cleared,
army officers declared he would be
entitled to more than 520,000 in back

Columbus. ().. Aug:. 20. Regret
over his opponent's announcement
that he probably will not make an
address at the Ohio state fair, Aug
ust '11. was expected today by Gov
ernor Cox.
"I am very sorry Senator Harding
is not going to spea"k." the governor
said, "as I already have spent more
than an hour preparing my speech,
which I hope to deliver from the
same platform. I had expected to
request that I 1. permitted to speak
first, granting the courtesy to the
senator of being permitted to answer
me."
Governor Cox spent today at the
xecut iv office in the capitol look
ing after rtate affairs. In the even
ing he pardoned three convicts from
th penitentiary, interviewing each
personally lwfon granting clemency.
Two convicts, who also had petition
ed for pardons, were sent back.
"You two boys have not told me
iho truth. You will have to go back
for awhile." the governor told them.
He had asked each man to tell the
story of the commission of the crime
for which he was convicted and facts
lending up to the crime.
The democratic candidate will
make two addresses tomorrow en
route to Canton, where hewill speak
in the evening. He will make an
address at Orville. whero he will
leave the train u go by automobile
to tne former city.
Governor Cox said today that he is
going to investigate circumstances
surrounding the laying off of work
men in various industries, following
receipt of alleged information that
republican leaders are planning to
use "unemployment" as an argument
to persuade workmen to vote against
the democratic ticket. The presiden
tial nominee said the survey first
would be directed at the American
woolen company and a "certain rail
road system."

A
One Who Shows No Favor
A merciless judge is Father Time.
Before him the weak and the want
ing go in the wall. Only the truth
can stand. For years the following
statement from a Plattsmouth resi
dent has withstood this sternest of
all tests.
Theo. Starkjohan, retired farmer.
Locust and Ninth streets, Flatts
moutli, says: "For several years
Doan's Kidney Pills have been used
in our family for kidney troubles
and backache, and they have proven
to be all that is claimed for them.
Whenever my back feels a little lame
and my kidneys are not acting as
they should. I take Doan's Kidney
Pills for a few days and they never
fail to do me good. Doan's can't be
equalled and anyone having kidney
trouble should take them for they
are very reliable." (Statement, giv
en February 23, 1916.)
OVKR FOITR YEARS LATER, or
on May 12,. 1920, Mr. Starkjohn ad
ded: The cure I had from Doan's
Kidney Pills several years ago has
been a lasting one. It has been a
couple of years since I used or had
need of a kidney medicine ana my
kidneys are now good and healthy.
I stili have faith in Doan's and if
ever I should need a kidney remedy
again. I should certainly use them."

Hague. Aug. 20. In the
of the jurists' conferences
have been held here to draw
up plans for the organization of an
International High Court of Justice,
Raoul Fernandez, the Brazilian dele
gate, found Elihu Root a supporter
in his light for the interests of small
nations.
At. two different occasions, Mr.
Root succeeded in. inducing the con
ference to adopt articles which Sen
hor Fernandez proposed.
The first case was the right of
Ihe country which had no judge in
the court to name a judge to sit
while that country's case was be
fore the court.
The second case in which Fernan
dez and Root closely collaborated
was when the latter 's proposal to ex
tend the power of supplementary
Judges was about to be rejected.
-According to the original plan the
vacancies caused through the ab
sence of judges could only be tilled
when at least three judges were ab
sent. Mr. Root, however, supported
the Fernandez amendment, and the
substitute takes the function as soon
as one judge is absent. In these two
cases the small powers are closely
interested.
The small powers are to have a
majority in the high court, there be
ing five judges representing the big
powers and six representing the
small powers while also the substi
tutes belong to the small countries.
This majority was endangered by
the old plan when In case of two
absent judges ,the small powers va
cancies would not be tilled and the
big powers would have a majority of
five to four.

Rickenbacker of Columbus, premier

friends feared for his safetv.
