The Newspapers Claim.

A newspaper is in no sense child OF
charity 1t earns twice over every dollar 1t
receives and it Is second to no enterprise
In contributing to the npbulding OF COM
munity Its patrons reap far more benefits
from Its pages than It's publishers, and in
calling for the support Of the community In
which 1t Is published It asks for no more
than in all fairness belongs to 1t. though
generally 1t receives less. Patronizo and
help your paper as you would any other
enterprise, because it helps YOU, and not as
an act of oharity.--West Point News.

Do Not Crowd the Season.

The first warm days of spring bring

Children that have been housed up all
winter are brought out and you wonder
where they all came from. The heavy
winter clothing is thrown aside and
many shed their fannels. Then cold
wave comes and people say that grip is
epidemic. Colds at this season are even
more dangerous than in mid-winter, as
there is much more danger of pneu-
monia. Take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, however, and you will have
nothing to fear. 1t always cures, and
