Saved Girl’s Life
“I want to tell you what wonderful benefit I have re
ceived from the use of Thedford’s Black-Draught,” writes
Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky.
“It certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,
liver and stomach troubles. I firmly believe Black-Draught
saved my little girl’s life. When she had the measles,
they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford’s
Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had no
more trouble. 1 shall never be without
to*. THEDFORDS „ Htag *
BLACK-DRAUGHT
in my home.” For constipation, indigestion, headache, dizzi
ness, malaria, chills and fever, biliousness, and all similar
ailments, Thedford’s Black-Draught has proved itself a safe,
reliable, gentle and valuable remedy.
If you suffer from any of these complaints, try Black-
Draught. It is a medicine of known merit. Seventy-five
years of splendid success proves its value. Good for
young and old. For sale everywhere. Price 25 cents.

Took the Hurt Out of Her Back
Mrs. Anna Byrd, Tuscumbia, Ala.,
writes: “I was down with my back
so I could not stand more than half
the time. Foley Kidney Pills took all
of the hurt out. Rheumatic pains,
swollen ankles, backache, stiff

The Aristocrat's Duty.
To subdue fear, desire, and jealousy,
is the aristocrat’s personal affair, it is
his ritual and discipline, like a knight
watching his arms; but the destruction
of division and prejudice and all their
forms and is his real
task, that is the common work of
knighthood. It is a task to be done
in a thousand ways; one man working
by persuasion, another by example,
this one overthrowing some crippling
restraint upon the freedom of speech
and the spread of knowledge and that
preparing himself for a war that will
shatter a tyrannous presumption.

Powerful Effects of Music.
Experiments on dogs showed that
music was capable of increasing the
elimination of carbonic acid and of in
creasing the consumption of oxygen. It
was also found that music increased
the functional activity of the skin.
In view of these powerful effects of
musical vibrations upon the nervous
system, it is easy to understand how
savages and animals, with their habit
of quick response to external stimuli,
are acted upon by certain kinds of mu
sic.
If the savage hears a joyful sort of
harmony, the vibrations of the music
start tingling the particular set of
nerves that produce good feeling, and
the agreeable sensations felt by his
nervous system have a very soothing
effect

ANTS PUT ANOTHER TO DEATH
Insect Imbibed Too Freely of Alcohol
and Is Drowned by “Commit
tee" of His Fellows.
National prohibition is in force
among the ants. The insects are so
firmly set against intoxication among
their fellows that the punishment of
death is not too severe for one who
oversteps the bounds. This was
brought out in a lecture by Dr. S. C.
Schmucher, vice president of the Uni
versity of Notre Dame, at the St. Jas
per county (Ind.) teachers’ institute.
Doctor Schmucher told the story as
an experience of Sir John Lovett, an
authority on ants. A quantity of alco
hol was placed on a piece of sugar, and
one ant that imbibed too freely was
put to death by a “committee” of four
of his fellow ants. The one ant ate
the sugar and alcohol until it became
so intoxicated it could not move. One
of the ants discovered the intoxicated
one. and went back to the ant hill.
Three others returned with it, and the
four finally dragged the intoxicated ant
to a tiny stream of water and drowned
it.—lndianapolis News.

ach—which portion of the food did
: the damage—do you? Well, don’t
! bother. If your stomach is in a re-
I volt;if sour gassy and upset, and

to stubborn lumps; head dizzy and
aches ;belch glasses and acids and
eructate undigested food; breath
foul, tongue coated —just take a lit
tle Pape’s Diapepsin and in five
minutes you wonder what became of
the indigestion and distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have a
bad stomach. A little Diapepsin oc
casionallykeeps this delicate organ
regulated and they eat their favor
ite food without fear.
If your stomach doesn’t take care
of your liberal limit without rebel
lion; if your food is a damage in
stead of a help, remember the quick
est, surest, most harmless relief is

stores. It’s truly wonderful—it di
gests food and sets things straight,
so gently and easily that it is real
ly astonishing. Please, for your
sake, don’t go on and on with a
weak, disordered stomach; it’s so
unnecessary, advt.
The high price of cotton is not an
unmixed blessing. Everything else is
going out of sight and cotton is not
really high in proportion to the high
cost of living.
