remedy. and when the coughing spell
would come on at night I would take
a dose and it seemed that in the briefest

mildly. had no idea that it would or

The advances made by ClarKsDurg the
past year are cause for rejoicing. Pro.
xressive steps have been taken in indus
trial and commercial lines. Confidence in
the future was to some extent respon-
siblle. Business men felt that there was
stability that could be depended upon.
With that feeling they branched out and
ventured forth with their best efforts
and those efforts have been rewarded.
With scarcely an exception they are
proud of their achievements. With a
.olid. substantial basis greater things
can be done next year. Every patriotic
citizen hopes that the coming years
strides may be longer and more resulta-
tive for Advancement than those of the
past year. Every one wants prosper
Gus. undisturbcd summer, and the Tele-
gram, for the benefit of the community,
hopes that will be the case.

Spring is upon US and still there is
no railroad to the section which offer
factory inducements. Something should
be done along this line at once. The
season is at hand, when there should be
active industry among our people. The

For the past few days We have been
having some extraordinary weather fol-
this time of the year. 1t almost seems
that we have skipped month on the
calendar. overcoats have been laid
aside and lighter clothing donned. The
school girls are beginning to "gad" about
in their Aimsy summer gowns, and
strange as it may seem, masculine
straw hat OF two has actually been no
tieed on the street. This is certainly
unusual weather for the middle OF
March. But it can't last very long. In
a few days. winter viii get in final

erybody will go back into the house and

Well. there is one thing about para
goric. 1t is ike a glass of water, not
likely to hurt any one. Still there are
some people who use it, or rather, have
it used, because they don't know any
thing about what real medicines are. 1t
is a very good thing to be on the safe
side. but the question in our minds is
whether one is always on the safe side
in taking paregoric. 1t might do for
rash, btu we doubt whether it would be
good for smallpox. BY the way, only
few months ago a man broke out here
with small pox and was treated quite
while for rash. 'Spose he was given
paragorie for that.
