Over fifty years ago a young
physician practiced widely in a
rural district and became famous
for his uniform success in the
curing of disease. This was Dr.
Pierce, who afterwards estab¬
lished himself in Buffalo, N. Y.,
and placed one of his prescriptions,
which he called ‘Golcten Medical
Discovery,” in the drug stores of
the United States so that the pub¬
lic could easily obtain this very
remarkable tonic, corrective and
blood-maker. Dr. Pierce manu¬
factured this “Discovery” from
roots and barks — a corrective
remedy, the ingredients of which
nature had put in the fields and
forests, for keeping us healthy.
Few folks or families now living
have not at sometime or other used
this “Golden Medical Discovery”
for the stomach, liver and heart.
Over twenty-four million bottles
of this tonic and blood remedy
have been sold in this country.

“Yes, I do, although I don’t see that

comes along asking impertinent ques¬
tions as to how ninny children I have,
and my maiden name before I was
married, and whether there’s insanity
in the family.
“I’m sick and tired of answering
such questions. If my old friends
want to dig into my family history,
I’ll give them all the information they
want, although I may consider their
conundrums in bad taste, but when a
perfect stranger conies along and asks
me if I do my own washing, I feel that
the line must be drawn somewhere.
Every jack in office asks questions. It
used to be that the assessor would
come to the door politely, and inquire
how many dogs we kept, and take our
estimate of the value of our prop¬
erty without looking as though he
knew we ought to be prosecuted for
perjury. But now' he must know the
color of your grandfather’s side whis¬
kers, and If you tell him that you keep
no dogs he goes out and looks under
the house, and in the barn, and when
he conies hack he warns you that the
penalties for giving false Information
are severe.
“Mr. Curfew;* says that the next
time the assessor comes, he is going
to throw him over the back fence and
kick him down the alley for a dis¬
tance of seven blocks, and I hope he’ll
keep his word.”
“I didn’t mean to offend you,” said
the stranger. “I’m introducing a wash¬
ing powder that saves half the labor,
and dispenses with soap altogether.
With this marvelous powder a woman
can do the week’s washing and have
her clothes hung on the line, inside of
two hours.”
“Well, mister, you take a package
of your marvelous powder down to
the creek, and give yourself a good
scrubbing, for you look as though you
had been fishing out of somebody’s
dustbin. Your whiskers are full of
sawdust, and your face is covered
with grime. If you were introducing
bituminous coal, there might be some
excuse for your appearance, but a
man who is selling washing powder
ought to be like the driven snow, or
nobody will have confidence in him.
“And I wouldn’t have anything to
do with your washing powder if you
offered to bring me a wagonload for
twenty cents. I make my own soap
of lye and grease, and although it
isn’t indorsed by the crowned heads
of Europe, or by prelates or vice pres¬
idents, it’s the best soap ever made,
and I know the ingredients are whole¬
some, even if they don’t comprise
harks and buds and healing herbs.
“When I use my own soap, I know
the things I wash won’t be any the
worse for it, but the washing powders
sold by agents are made of dynamite
and lunar caustic, and a garment once
washed with them will never be fit
to use again.
“Last spring I was feeling too poor¬
ly to make the usual batch of soap,
so I bought a package of washing
powder from an agent who had his
pockets full of testimonials showing
that he was a man of high moral char
acter. It happened that week that
all of Mr. Curfew’s white shirts were
in the w'ash. Mr. Curfew is very par¬
ticular about his shirts. They must
he as white as arctic snow, or the way
he raves around the house is a dis¬
grace. Well, I wish you could have
seen those shirts after they were
washed. They had an old gold color,
and have been getting yellower ever
fince, and Mr. Curfew never sits down
but he speaks about it and makes
things uncomfortable.
“So you had better toddle along
and sell your washing powder to some
woman who doesn’t know how T to make
pood soap.”

THE NEWS $2.50 THE YEAR
AFTER DECEMRER 1st, 1020.
Beginning December 1st, 1020, the
subscription price of The Covington
News will be $2.50 per year, instead
of $1.50. IVe have figured most
every way against a raise on subscrip¬
tion. hut with continuous increase in
the price of newsprint, and with a
heavy increase which came on June
ltft, 1920 it becomes necessary to
make this announcement. Newsprint
normally was about $45.00 a ton. To.
day it is over $320.00 a ton, and is
still soaring. Added to this enormous
advance, are increases in all other
costs of operation, with a big raise in
postage that went into effect July let.
Because of these unprecedented condi¬
tions many newspapers, as a result,
have been forced to quit. We believe
that our subscribers, in most part at
least, understand something about the
newspaper publisher’s troubles at this
time, and those who are not familiar,
can get some idea of the situation by
comparing the above figures.
We will send out statements in a
few days at the present rate and any
other subscription at the $1.50
rate will he received up to December
1st, 1920.
