Well, what could you naturally

As a result of the gubernatorial
race in Florida Catts is felicitous,
but Knott is not.
Here’s to Old Glory ! Long may

It takes some folks a long time
to realize that President Wilson's
long jaw stands for firmness.
Our devil has aspirations to be

We have decided to add anoth

Either the legislature is behav

newspaper reporters have more
important matters to look after.
Josh Billings thus expressed his
opinion of the fly: “1 hate a fly.
Darn a flv.” We feel very much
that way towards the boll weevil,
only a little more so.
Occasionally we talk with a
farmer who says he hasn’t seen
any boll weevils on his place. We
fear that some are like small boys
as regards hook worms —got ’em
and don’t know it.
The average local optionist may
be defined as a man who contends
that if a fellow wants whiskey he
ought to be allowed to buv it at
his home town —and he invariably
has a perennial and consuming
thirst.

THE AMERICAN FLAG
•• Y'oar flag ami my flag, and how it flies
today
In your land and my land, and half a
world away;
Rose red and blood red its stripes forever
gleam.
Snow white and soul white, the good
forefathers’ dream;
Sky Idue and true blue with stars that
gleam aright,
The gloried guidon of the day, a shelter
through the night
Your flag and my llag, and oh, how much
it holds!
Your land and my land, secure within its
folds;
Your heart and my neart beat quicker at
the sight.
Sun-kissed and wind-tossed, the red and
blue and white;
The one flag—the great flag—the flag for
me and you.
Glorifies all else beside, the red and white
ami blue.

His Backache Gone.
More men have kidney trouble
than are aware of it. Just how
serious a backache, sore muscles,
aching joints, rheumatism, swol
len ankles, and blurring vision
may be is sometimes realized only
when a man attempts to take out
life insurance and is refused on
account of kidney trouble. Jo
seph G. Wolf, 734 So. Jackson
St., Green Bay, Wis., writes: Fo
ley Kidney Pills relieved me of a
severe backache that had both
ered me for several months.”
Any symptom of kidney trouble
deserves attention. The McDon
ough Drug Co.
are willing for General Pershing
and his troops to come out of
Mexico. Thev don’t seem to be
doing any good and are stirring
up enmity. Come out of the wil
derness and back to civilization
and the land of your fathers,
Persh. —Cuthbert Leader.
