Getting back the
'old vigor.''

Nothing causes so much encouragement, blues
and dependency as the realization that one is
not so vigorous as a year ago.
The great trouble is that people in a run down
condition usually sit back for a while and wait
and hope that they will feel better soon.
Hoping will not restore the tired nerves to their
true strength.
The nerves are tired and sick-they have been
abused and they won't do their work in the right
way until they have been fed new power and
built back to their old strength then you will feel
the old vigor again.
You can get back the old vigor" with Paine.

DEMOCRATS WOULD
HONOR WILLIAMS
Boom for Mississippi Representative as
Temporary Presiding Officer Meets
With Favor.

For temporary chairman Of the Demo
cratic National Convention. the Hon
John Sharp Williams of Mississippi A
boom with this label has been started
by the Democrats in the House as d
testimonial TO the leadership Of Mr..
Williams. and although it is only a day
or two old. il has already grown TO
large proportions.
The Democrats Of the House. in recog-
milton Of AIr. Williams ability. wish to
have him sound the keynote of the
coming campaign IN a speech at the
opening OF The Democratic convention
The movement was started by some OF
5Ir Williams friends, and every Demo-
crat approached upon the subject has
given IL his hearty Endorsement. Not
only do members of the House favor
his selection, but Democratic Senators
also agree that Mr.. Williams IS the man
for temporary chairman.
The Democratic National Committee
recommends to the convention the tenn
rOrary officers. and an effort viii be
made by the leaders IN the movement
to induce the committee TO select Mr.
williams, and this IS not likely 10 be
a difficult task, owing TO Mr.. Williams
popularity and the effectiveness OF his
leadership in the House.
No other name has been prominently
mentioned in connection with the tenn
IOrary craftsmanship Of the convention,
ana now that Mr.. Williams is proposed,
II Is not likely that anyone else viii
be suggested for this honor.
