thought OF the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier aud better to
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one Of
the most dangerous diseases that mcdl-
cal men have to contend with, can be
prevented by the use OF Chamberiain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re-

. that this remedy ooupteraots any
tendency Of these diseases toward pneu-
monia. This has been fully proven in
many thousands OF cases in which this
remedy has been used during the great
prevalency Of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with i'm
plicit confidence, Pneumonia often re-
suits from q slight colo when no danger

LET Us HAVE
YOUR AID
In Securing a Military Or
gantxation in Madison.
LETTER FROM ADIuIANr GENERAL
Tells why Necessary Authority Is
Extraordinarily May be Over
come by Aid of Citizens.

The matter Of organizing a mill
tary company in Madison has not
beeu abandoned by any means, but
it requires considerable time to per.
feet il. Several weeks ago, as an
nounced in this paper, formal pc
rtion signed by thirty-four would
be soldiers was forwarded to the
Governor asking his authority for
the organization Of a company Of
infantry here. The matter was re-
ferred to the Adjutsnt- General who
writes under date of Jan. LIST as fol-
lows:
Ms. COLUMBUS b. SMITH.
MADISON, FLA.
MY DEAR SIR;-
had opportunity 70 take up with the
governor, yesterday, the petition o.
yourself ana others TO organize q mill.
tary company at Madison. The COVER
nor looks with f,vor upon Il e projec,
and would like very much TO have q
company organized at that point, but
feels that il would be upwlse TO author
ize It before the converting Of the next
legislature. This "a for the reason that
recent decision OF the Supreme Court
prohibits the furnishing Of armories by
the counties, and as no provision il
made for tins purpose by the State, he
would not feel justified in authorizing
the renting Of an armory except In ca
SEES where companies are already or
gained and have large quantities q
stores on hand. s@sa You will, there
fore, understand that it would be nee
essary that YOU should have suitabl,
quarters before stores could be issue,
to you s@ss Very respectfully,
| j. CLIFFORD r, FOSTER,
Adjutant- General.
From this letter we conclude thai
il suitable quarters can be provide,
without expense TO the State, per-
mission will be given for the organi
cation of the company. The legisla
ture will convene in April and j
must, Of necessity, make some pro.
vision for the State troops or Their
will be none. Could the boys be as
sisted by the citizens in paying tn
rent for an armory for say three o
four months we have no doubt bn
that by that time provision will hav
been made. A hall should not cos
a great deal and our public spirite'
citizens should be glad Of the oppor
tunity OF assisting so much neede'
an organization. The boys who hav
signed the roll for enlistment mea
} buiness and many of them are will
ing 10 contribute what they can u
ward the rent of an armory unit
provision is make by thu State. III
editor Of the New Enterprise
having this matter very much a
: heart, will be pleased to receive Of
fers of assistance from those who ma
desire TO aid. Let us know wis
you will do, citizens.

Mrs. Asami told me that they had
her awake at three. We got to the |
house Of her mother just before nine |
and had tea and cskes. l wish you

instead Of being paper, are raw silk |
spangled with gold leaf. Tayo San
