Every doctor knows that most people drink too little.'
On this account, their systems become clogged with waste.
There lies the main good of watering places. They
induce the drinking of water.
That is one reason why the drinking of beer is good
for you. It leads you to drink more liquid than you would
drink without it. ' And that liquid is both a food and a tonic.
Thesturdiest peoples of the earth drink the most of it.
But be sure that the beer is aged, so it will not cause
biliousness. And be sure it is pure.
Schlitz beer is all healthfulness.

NEW TORK. April 1. Secretary William
H- Taft was entertained ac dinner at the
Waldorf-Astoria tonight by" th. Sphinx
club, whose guests Included men promi
nent In the publishing world. These guests
In turn entertained the 400 members of
tha club who are either magailne publish
ers or advertising managers. Th. guests'
share of the entertainment fell chiefly on
Secretary Tsft. who discussed at aom
length tha history of tha publication busi
ness and the development of the modern
magasina.
To present day editors th. secretary paid
soma very pretty compliments when he
pointed out that tha moral awakening of
tha people could be traced generally to
an honest and outspoken press. Though un
fortunate coHdltiona existed at tlmea, the
secretary said that th. progreaa toward
better things waa uninterrupted and that
th. public pulse waa quickened with a
moral throb. '
Other speakers were William H. McElroy
of the Tribune. William Berri of th. Brook
lyn Standard Union. Arthur Brisbane of
the Journal, Dr. Albert Shaw and Robert
C Ogden.
Secretary Taft'a Speech.
Robert Frothlngham presided and in in
troducing Secretary Taft, lauded th. guest a
public career. These remarks called forth
a demonstration of approbation which was
renewed as Mr. Taft a roe. to speak.
Secretary Taft said in part;
The relation between politics and litera
ture waa never more close than tn tha be
ginninga of. the modern newspaper and
magazine.
hen we compare th. magasina In the
daya of Addison with the modern publica
tion there la much food for thought In
the character of the changes which have
been wrought and tha kind of progress
which haa been made. What I am dis
cussing la th. progreaa, from the stand
pot nt of the community at large, which haa
been made In thia branch of human ac
tivity, la it not in the eatendlng of uaeful
Influence - of magaslne reading to the
masses of tha people? la it not tn bringing
within the reach of the poorest who read
the power of entering the brig hi est and
beet of modern literature and art?
Thia difference between the magmxlne of
a century ago and that of today finda a
counterpart and analogy in regard to moat
of those things which mske life enjoyable.
In toe pursuit of happiness, in point of
real living, the man of little merria and
th men of great nteana ar. much nearer
In respect to th. comforts they enjoy than
they ever were before in lite history of

In the discharge of certain fidelity trusts, in
the conduct vf certain great corporal, af

perations. a clearly distinct element of dis
honesty, illegality and disregard of moral
principle, and that unless it is checked by
public condemnation and protest there ia
grav. danger that th. moral foundations
of the business of lb. country will b.

The moral awakening, however, haa been

them properly suspicious and properly
watchful of the doings of their representa
tives. It is at the bottom of the strong
demand for primary elections snd the
elimination of that kind of political ma
chinery which ao often In the. past has
defested the will of the people.
This quickening of the public conscience
haa directed public attention and public
sympathy toward the poor an ' laboring
classes and haa arouaed men to .he necea
sity for enacting laws which shall protect
them snd place them on an equality In deal
ing with their powerful employera.
It haa made the public recognise the ne
cessity for the union of labor to enable It
to meet on equal terms Ita corporate and
combined employera In reapect to the ever,
recurring controveray aa to the division be
tween capital and labor, of their Joint
product.
X. Attack aa Property.
But those who suppose that thla move
ment ia to be regarded-aa an attack upon
wealth accumulated through thrift and ia
Justry and heneat bualneaa acumen, or aa
repudiation of the aecurlty - of private
property and Invested capital, are aure to
e disappointed in the end. however great
ncouragemenl they may receive at first
n the expression of popular will.
He is far afield. In my judgment, who
-up poses thst this popularity of the moral
Issue, If I may use the expreaaion. Indi
cates a dealre to depart from the institu
tions of our fathers to amend tha guaran
tiee tf life, liberty and property aa con
tained in our constitution, or to reach any
other end than equality of all before the
law and the promotion of the equality of
opportunity in the pursuit of happiness.
The people wlah to be convinced that the
government la bigger and greater than cor
porate wealth, that they .ran select eerv
anta to represent them who will not yield
to those seeking to make themselves ex
empt from the enforcement of the law and
to establish themaelvra aa a mivlleaed
clasa.
They muat be satisfied that the laws csn
be executed, that the government can be
carried on In such a way aa that the most
successful man In the community from a
mercantile standpoint, he who haa accumu
lated millions, shall be made to feel that
he la amenable to the law and that a vio
lation of It will aubject him tn Its penalty.
Thia movement la atill In progress and
there la likely to be no backward atep.
