A COLD OR CATARRH
How To Get Relief When Head
and Nose are Stuffed Up.
Count fifty! Your cold in head or
catarrah disappears. Your clogged
nostrils will open, the air passages of
your head will clear and you can
breathe freely. No more snufflng,
hawking mucous discharge, dryness
or headache, no strugling for breath
at night.
Get a small bottle of Ely's Cream
Balm from your Druggist and apply
a little of ths fragrant antiseptic
cream in your nostrils. It penetrates
through every air passage of the head,
soothing and healing the swollen or
inflamed mucous membrane, giving
you instant relief. Head colds and
catarrh yield like magic. Don’t stay
stuffed up and miserable. Relief is

tion, who will tour the South.
Up to December 1, 1920, Scuthern
Baptists had paid $16,851,100.68 in
cash on their subscriptions to the 75
Million Campaign, according to an a.n-|
nouncement issued by the Conserva
tion Commission, which is looking af
ter all the general interests of the
campaign. This sum has been appor
tioned among forzign missions, home
missions, state missions, Christian ed
ucation, hospitals, orphanages and
ministerial relief, in accordance with
the original campaign program.
While the receipts from the cam
paign have enabled all the agencies of
the denomination to greatly enlarge
their work the returns have not been
as large as the, best interests of the
work demand, it is said, and the local
churches throughout the South are
asked tO-join in a movement to bhring
up the payments on all subscriptions
due by May 1, in order that the dele
gates can go to the Southern Baptist
Convention- at Chattanooga, May 12,
with a clean slate and all the gen
eral work adequately provided for.
Will Hold Day of Prayer.
Inaugurating this spring cash round.
up campaign, February 27-March 6
has been designated as intercession
week by the Baptist women of the
South, while the entire membershig
of the Baptist churches is asked to
join in spending Wednesday, March 2,
as g day of prayer for God’'s blessinge
and guidance in the further campaign
work.
After this special period of praye:r
the remainder of March will be given
over to enlisting all the members of
all the Baptist churches in the South
in the matter of completing the cam:
paign program by paying that por
tion of the subscriptions due by that
time, and in bringing the members to
see their obligation to support God's
work through the dissemination of the
doctrine of stewardship. April has
been designated as loyalty month and
during that time effort will be made
throughout the South to bring Bap
tists to realize that their loyalty to
God and His work demands the pay
ment, where at all possible, of their
pledges to the campaign.
\ Southwide Tour Is Planned.
In order that the subscribers to the
campaign may be fully informed on
what has been accomplished with the
money they have contributed so far,
and as to the needs for the comple
tion of the campaign program, a se
ries of informational ad inspirational
meetings that will reach into every
state in the South has been planned
for March and April. These meetings
will be featured by addresses by Dr.
J. B. Gambrell, president of the South.
ern Baptist Convention, and Dr. E. Y
Mullins, president of the Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary, who
have just returned from a six months'
tour of the mission fields of Europe,
and who will tell of conditions they
found there; Dr. L. R. Scarborough,
general director of the campaign, and
other persons of prominence. These
meetings will be held at central points
in the various states, and from these
central meetings associational and dis
trict rallies will be formed in the hope
of taking the campaign message to all
the people. ;
Large Rellef Work Done.
Secretary Love of the Foreign Mis.
sion Boarga repures that Southern Bap
tists, within the last few weeks, have
contributed $147,284.20 in cash for the
relief of suffering peoples in Europe
and China, above their campaign con
tributions, and that the Baptist women
of the South have contributed $lOO,-
000 worth of first-class clothing for
the needy families of Hungary,
Beetle Hurts Pulp Industry.
A gray-green beetle has much to do
with the present shortage of paper.
The beetle is the adult form of the as
pen horer, a grub which often destroys
whole plantations of the trees that are
So essential to the pulp industry.
The beetle gnaws a slot in the bark
and deposits one or two eggs therein.
From these eggs come the trouble
making grubs that gnaw into the heart
and sapwood and so riddle the tree
that the first strong wind snaps the
weakened timber.
Poplar and aspen—both fast grow
ing trees, and for this reason very val
uable to manufacturers—are the ob-
Jects of this horer’'s attacks. The im
ported Lombardy poplar and the com
mercial cottonwood of the Mississippi
valley are very seldom injured, but all
eother native varieties are damaged by
-the grub.
In some areas, where poplar and
aspen predominate, the standing dead,
fallen and dying rtrees exceed 50 per
cent of the total stand.
Supply of Ostrich Feathers.
In 1914 there were 1,500,000 ostrich
es in South Africa. These are now
reduced to 300,000. Germany and Aus
tria are still ‘out of the market for
feathers. England is taking a few
and they are too costly for France.
The ostrich feather business of the
world is now in the hands of about
six men., with headquarters in Lon
don. They hold from $9.000,000 to
$10,000.000 worth of ostrich feathers,
In normal times the world's supply
for a year.- The United States being
practically the only market for tha
feathers, this country has the say as
to the price, and is giving from $6O
to $lOO a paund, when in an active
market they should bring fx;om $l6O
to $2OO.

Invention of Electric Light.
The credit for the basic discovery
of the electric light is probably due to
Sir Humphry Davy. who in 1810 ob
served the eleetric are and produced
Incandescence of a fine platinum wire
in connection with his expériments
with a 2,000-cell battery. In 1862 an
arc lamp was installed in the light
house at Dungeness, in 1879 the Edison
incandescent lamp was exhibited, and
in 1882 the Pearl street Edison station
in New York was put in service.
