MATRIMONY
Twentieth Century Style

"A now sort Of married life Is gradually
creeping in.' said a married woman who
goes to business every day. 'and it's going
to creep in more and more.

AGES AND KEEPS HIS
OWN SIDEBOARD.
His Aggressiveness In Holding Down
Lid On Sundays Not Due to
Prohibition Tendencies.

Considerable public surprise seems
to have been created by the discovery
that Gov. Folk occasionally partakes
of liquors. Apparently it was as
sumed that because Mr.. Folk was so
aggressive in holding down the lid
he is a prohibition worker. But it
has been thoroughly established that
Gov. Folk drinks and drinks where
and when ne pleases.
It remained for the governor Of Kan
sas to make the facts known about
the governor of Missouri and ne made
the discovery when they were fellow
travellers in a Pullman car.
In commenting afterward upon the
incident, Gov. Folk said:
my efforts to enforce the law do
not mean that I am a rabid temper
ance man. l have no inclination to re-
strict the rights and privileges Of an
American citizen. He can drink if he
wants to so long as ne does not get it
in Missouri on Sunday. If he does get
it on that day and l find it out l will
prosecute the man who sells it to him
because it is against the law. 1t is the
law that 1 am sticking up for
An Expert Mixer.
Gov. Folk drinks, but he is so quiet
about it that few persons would ever
dream that he is the expert in mixing
liquors that he is. When ne used t.
practice law in ST. Louis he dropped
into the bar with his friends and tool
his drink the same as any one else
but when he became circuit attorney
he became more careful, and now since
he has become governor with his lie
on his hands, he prefers to go to his
club or to take his drink at mis- owr
sideboard. For the governor keeps {

Proper Treatment Of Pneumonia

Pneumonia is too dangerous IA dis
ease for any one to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physician
should always be called. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that pneu-
monia always results from cold or
from an attack of the grip, and that by
giving Chamberlains Cough Remedy
the threatened attack of pneumonia
may be warded off. This remedy is al
so used by physicians in the treatment
of pneumonia with the best results.
