The general character of this music should

Migraine or sick headache is a peculiar

early youth. often hereditary, occurring
with noticeable regularity, accompanied by
vomiting and sometimes disturbances of
sight hearing and sensation; ii affects
chiefly one side of the head. lasts one to
three days. and has we'll been nkened to
epilepsy; it is sometimes called bilious
headache, though in no way related to dis

Oldest Citizen in Audubon Dies.

John w. Davisson, Audubon's old
est citizen and probably the Oldest
citizen in the county, died Monday ev-
ening about eight o'clock at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Williamson in
West Audubon.
Mr.. Davisson was born at Paris,
Preble county, Ohio, Oct. 2, 1909 and
was therefor 93 years, 10 months and
% days old at his death. He was the
father ofthree sons and three daugh-
ters, all of whom, as we'll as his wife,
are dead, except his daughter, Mrs.
Williamson. He has lived with Mr..
and Mrs. Williamson for the past
nineteen years. His health has been
good until the last ten weeks when he
has been helpless. In early life he
was an active and influential member
and class leader in the M. f. church
but in later years, has not been so sit
uated that he could attend church.
The funeral was yesterday, conducted
by Rev. E. b. Cousins>and burial was

The democratic committee broke
their immemmorial custom this time
by holding their county convention on
Thursday instead of Wednesday. No
reason is given for this sudden break
ing away from the traditional past.
Surely it is not possible they think
ticket nominated on Thursday will be
any more successful than one nomi-
mated on Wednesday. We would
rather they had left the date on We'd
nesday. 1t is difficult for us to report
the convention the same afternoon we
go to press. But the committee made
their call without consulting the Re-
PUBLICAN, so we are forced to make
the convention write-up brief and go
to press late. The committee surely
was not so unmindful of our welfare
as to think they would help the Advo-
cate to a scoop on so good piece of
news as democratic county conven-
ton. III that was their object they
should have put ii over another day
later, Friday, the Advocates publica-
tion day. We would suggest they do
this next year.

AStepping Stone to Wealth
Annual Incomes One thousand to
Twenty Thousand Dollars.
Splendid Business Opportunities
for Ambitious Young Men
and Women.

The Cedar Rapids Uowa) Business
College has published booklet under
the above title. This booklet is unique
" its way, and different from anything
In a printed pamphlet ever issued by
business training school.
1t may be considered an endorsement
Of strength that large number of sue
cessful young men and women OF America,
whose annual earnings range from $1,000
10 $4,000 each. give full credit TO the
Cedar Rapids Business College for train
ing them for their positions. 1t Is indeed
amazing to find that this school, as noted
as II is for completeness and thorough
ness, has been able to take young men
and women from small towns and farms
where they could earn less than fifty
dollars a month, train them for from
twelve to fifteen months. and place them
In positions where. after few short years
they are earning from one to twenty
thousand dollars year.
Such is the record of the Cedar Rapids
Business College as disclosed by the
letters from pupils which are pub
lished In the little booklet above referred
to, and accompanied by photographs Of
the writer's. ....
Probably no similar school in America
can show such an array of successful stu.
dents in such varied lines of employment,
IL viewed from their annual incomes.
For the encouragement Of ambitious
young men and women, Mr.. A. N. Palmer,
President of the school, states that during
the more than twenty years he has been
the official head of the Cedar Rapids
Business College. there never before have
been so many opportunities for placing
the graduates In good positions.
sMr. Palmer will be pleased to send a
copy Of the booklet above referred to,
to any interested person.
