Easy Pill ^
Easy to take and easy to act is
that famous little pill DeWitt's
Little Early Risers. This is due to
the fact that they tonic the liver in¬
stead of purging it. They never gripe
nor sicken, not even the most delicate
lady, and yet they are so certain in
results that no one who uses them is
disappointed. They cure torpid Kver,
constipation, biliousness, jaundice,
headache, malaria and ward off pneu¬
monia and fevers.

Plea for Manliness Among
Young Men.
From the Wesleyan Christian Advocate.
The Dawson News, one of the
best county exchanges thatcomes
to our desk, in its last.issue said:
‘"Before the general judiciary
committea of the house of repre¬
sentatives a prominent Atlanta
business man stated that in his
opinion not less than 90 per cent
of the young men of Atlanta are
in debt for a year’s salary ahead.”
If our confrere is anywhere in
the neighborhood of the real sta¬
tus of our young men in the
above it is time to take alarm.
What hope is there of the preval¬
ence of a high typed, honest, cit¬
izenship if 90 per cent of the
young men in the largest and
most rapidly growing city of our
state are living so fast, and are
so disregardful of debt as to be
one year’s yet unearned salary
in debt"? These j T oung men must
in the near future have a large
partin the control of the affairs
of our state, both political and
commercial, as well as a large
share in determined the social
tone of our life. It is time for
an earnest and persistent cru¬
sade in business circles, in the
homes and from the pulpits in
ihe interest Of a sturdy and un¬
yielding honesty. When any ap¬
preciative proportion of our
young men become disregardful
of the peril of an expenditure be¬
yond their earnings the way is
open for a train of evils. Be¬
coming hopelessly in debt the
sense of obligation is weakenel
and destroyed, unable with sal¬
ary to pay debts theft is resorted
to, and then comes sooner or la¬
ter such an utter breakdown iu
moral character that the sense
of shame is lost and ill-earned
money is counted as a legitimate
shrewdness iu business. No
wonder already the prominent
men here and there all over the
country—men who see the drift
—are preaching a return to the
simple, honest methods of trade
which were once known among
us.
But Atlanta is no worse, says
our confrere already quoted—
and more is the need of alarm—
than our other cities. The News
further says:
‘‘This assertion is no doubt
true in a general degree, wheth¬
er the percentage named is ex¬
actly correct or not, and it is a
pity that such is true. What is
true of Atlanta is true to a mere
or Jess extent of other towns of
the state. The tendency of the
average young man to live in ex¬
cess of his earning capacity is
deplorable .and the News trusts
that this valuable fraction of
Georgia’s citizenry will become
educated to the fact that pru¬
dence as to finance has as
much, if not more, to do with the
successful man of today as any
other consideration.”
We plead for manliness among
our young men and for a courage
that will go in rags rather than
in debt; that will go hungry if
need be rather than risk an expen¬
diture which their income does
not warrant. __
A man cannot be a “high roller”
in a great city on forty or fifty
dollars per month.
But there is 'another side to
theq uestion The News has broach -
ed, a question for our business
men, namely; is it the best policy
—to say nothing of higher rea¬
sons—for our business men to
grind their employes down to the
lowest possible price? Isn’t it
in the interest of a sound busi¬
ness as well as of a higher char*
acter that employes be paid
.. living . if employers’
wage, even
profits are reduced? Some of
the bitterest tragedies of oui
times are being enacted in tin
struggle honest hut poor and de
pendent women and men an
making to earn a bare living
Even childhood is being sacrific
ed on the alter of gain. It u
time for a crusade liere as well
as in the interest of the young
men. Given a living wage, and
honest service rendered, there
should be a persistent warning
given to our young men concern
iug the perils of living beyond
one’s income. To do so should
be frowned upon as a disgrace
not less deep and dishonorable
than theft—for to that ei.d it
will sooner or later lead.
From 148 to 92 Pounds.
One of the most remarkable cases of a
cold, deep-seated on the lungs, causing
pneumonia, is that of Mrs. Gertrude E.
Fenner, Marion, Ind., who was entirely
cured by the use of One Minute Cough
Cure. She says, “The coughing and
straining so weakened me that I ran
down in weight from 148 to 92 pounds.
I tried a number of remedies to no avail
until I used One Minute Cough Cure.
Four bottles of this wonderful remedy
cured me entirely of the cough, strength¬
ened my lungs and restored me to my
normal weight, health and strength.”
