Altohnl and Pneumonia.
The United States Public Health
Service brands strong drink as the
most efficient ally of pneumonia
It declares that alcohol is the hand
maiden of the disease which pro
duces 10 per cent of the deaths in
the United States. This is no ex
aggeration. We have known for a
long time that indulgence in alco
holic liquors lowers the individual
vitality, and that the man who
drinks is peculiarly susceptible tr
pneumonia. The United States
Public Health Service is a conser
vative body. It does not engage ir
alarmist propaganda. In following
out the line of its officia' duties it
has brought forcefully to the gen
eral public a fact which will bear
endless repetition. The libera
and continuous user of alcoholic ■
drinks will do well to heed this!
warning, particularly at this seasor !
of the year when the gruesome |
death toll from pneumonia is being j
doubled.__ _

Gaodwin Says Nr Is Stic king to Nis Post.
Yes. he is staying at his post:
waging a most powerful campaign
for re-election from Washington.
He stays there so he can send out j
his political dope at Government
Expense. This is a strict violation
of the law. yet. he does it. The po
litical matter he has sent out at
Government Expense since the
holidays would have cost me be-1
tween $6.000 00 and $10,000.00. '
He got so bold in one of his letters,;
sent over the District under Gov
ernment frank, that he attacked
me most viciously, mentioning my
name. Should you as an individ
ual violate the Federal Laws in the
same way, they'd have you in Fed
eral Court at Texarkana in less:
t:me than a week. So it is plain to
be seen that he stays in Washing-;
ton, not so much in the interest of
the people but to further his polit
ical interests at the cost of the1
people.
The ] 8lh of last August I ad
dressed a registered latter to Mr.
Goodwin, inviting him to, meet me
in joint debate over the District.
This would have given plenty of
time to have completed the Dis- I
trict before the convening of Con
gress. To that letter he has never
replied. So his talk about sticking1
to his post is an excuse and not a
reason.

Catarrh Cannot Pe Cured

Catarrh is a local disease, greatly in

and in order to cure it you must
take an internal remedy. Hall's On - !

Cure was prescribed by one of the hesi
physicians in this country for years. It
is composed of some of the best tonies
known, combined with some of the

Migratory B:rd Law Continues in rorcr.
A misleading statement has re
cently become current in newspa- |
oers of the Mississippi Valley and
elsewhere, to the effect that the !
Department of Agriculture has sus-1
pended the enforcement of the
Federal regulations under the Mi- \
gratory Bird Law and by this
mcans has enabled sportmen. un
der state laws, to shoot wild fowl
the coming spring.
Under the Federal regulations as ;
they now stand, the season on all
migratory wild fowl is closed until
next autumn throughout the United
States. Federal inspectors and
wardens are required, and others
interested in the protection of wild
fowl are requested, to report to the
department of agriculture all cases
of violations of the regulations, in
o-der that proper action may be
taken.
Th-i Department of Agriculture
has no power to suspend the lav/ or
to pardon violators of oa regula
tions. Doubtless tna < • ous
impression, on which the news
paper statements are based, has
grown out of the pendency of liti
gation involving the constitutionali
• / of the Act of congress approved
Mu ch 4, 1913. under which the
regulations were promulgated.
Tne 1' wer Federal courts di^a
greed as to the validity of the stat
Jte and the issue was carried to
-he supreme court of the Untied
States. The case wap argued in
'ha supreme court in October.
1915, hut has not been decided.
Following the lov/er court deeds-;
rons. congress appropriated money
for the purpose of continuing the j
enforcement cf the law. The De- I
partment cf Agriculture is bound
to report to the Department of
Justice violations of the regula
tions if the supreme court should
declare the law constitutional. All
persons should, therefore, be
warned of the danger they incur
from failure to aEfde by the regula
tions.

BUYING POWER
Back of This Store
That Makes It's
Values Possible.
No mrttcr how siral! or large your purchase you will be
s>re to fi id cur prices 'o represent an absolute saving to you.
Is it not reasonable to suppose, that by buying in large
quant'tils for our three stores, that we can secure pi ice reduc
tions which the small dealer cannot possibly obtain? And in
addition we are able to save about 20 per cent in freight
charges by buying in solid car load Irts. Also we have no
rent to pay. as we own our building. One customer told us the
other day that he saved $32 00 on a purchase of $211.00.
We can. and will do the same for you. Write us about your
wants. Tell frankly just the pieces wanted, finish desired, etc.
and we will send you cuts and prices for your approval.
You will always hnd. quality considered, that you can buy
better merchandise here, and always with the guarantee that
will measure up to every requirement.
