A wise man never worries about

It's easy for a successful man to

Forty-four million dollars in gold

Life furnishes a number of knot

News from the British front is
that the Tommies are betting 2*2

Silver is going up say those who

Representative Steve Meadors

had been killed 6,500.000 making

to $9,806.20; which proves that
the cost of war is as high as the
cost of living .
THE flOWERS Of SPRING.
The person who does not yearn
for a yard of blooming flowers
when vitality creeps into growing
plants is a strange human being.
Yet how few of us realize the ful
fillment of this desire in the yards]
which we have. Everybody could |
afford flowers around their homes j
but the number who make the
effort are woefully few, and those |
who do, usually make a few mad |
plurges ard then discontinue their1
efforts. This town would be more :
beautiful if every home owner1
would beautify the premises and!
keep something blooming in the i
yard every week of the year. It is
said that the gloomy weather of.
some countries has had a depress
ing effect upon the nature of their
people and it is also true that the
brightness of a man’s home may
pervade the spirit of his whole life.
A smile within the home, a grow
ing, blooming plant without, can go
a long ways to creating happiness
in this old world. Why not get
ready to try it?

“Granny” Chamberlain
Bronchitis
“There is no disease that should cause more anxiety in the
home than Bronchitis, for if neglected in the earlier stages it
often becomes chronic and may even prove fatal.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the medicine for this disease,
and if given in regular doses will relieve the cough, ease the
pain, remove the difficulty in breathing and produce a free and
easy expectoration, thus reducing the inflammation.
Old people, and those who have weak lungs, cannot be too
careful in guarding against this disease.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
strengthens the throat and lungs and makes them less susceptible
to changes of the atmosphere, in fact, the use of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy will prevent an attack of Bronchitis becoming
chronic."

Isolating Your Telephone
'XT C) one intentionally leaves the receiver off the
fx hook at the end of a telephone conversation.
^ When you do this accidentally, it com
pletely cuts you off from all the other telephones in
the system. It also causes your switchboard operator
a lot of extra work in trying to notify you of the fact
that your telephone is temporarily out of commission.
By always replacing the receiver on the hook at the end of a
telephone talk you keep your telephone door open and greatly assist
in maintaining good telephone service.
Every Bell Telephone is a Long Distance Station

cent of their car requirements based
on shipping facilities. The plant
loading facilities for one week of
these sixty-three mills are shown
to be 4.301 cars. Only 2.270 cars
were shipped. The fact that had
cars been availabe 4.301 could
have been shipped, is forcibly dem
onstrated by the number of cars
ordered and now on the books for
immediate shipment of 10.774.
