To CONSIDER
WAREHOUSE

The committee appointed by the
County Farmers Union to attend to all
matters pertaining to the building of
the farmers warehouse in Hatties
burg will have a meeting Friday in the
Commercial Club rooms to further
consider matters pertaining to the
erection of the warehouse in this city
Members of the committee state
that they are now waiting on the city
of Hattiesburg to do something about
the lot. They expect the city to fur
nish the lot and so far no definite ar
rangements for a site have been made.
A subscription list has been started
and some Roadway has been made, but
not enough to settle the matter.
This is a very important matter to
Hattiesburg and nothing should be left
undone to secure the early construc-
tion of the warehouse. Other cities
and towns all over the state have as
sisted in the building of these ware
houses and they consider it a good
business proposition. The business
men of Hattiesburg should heartily as
sist in this matter.

SUN BROS. GAVE A GOOD SHOW

Sun Brothers Shows gave their per-
Torrance Monday on scheduled time
and gave excellent satisfaction to the
large audiences present. The show
presented many novel trained animal
features. A diversity of high class
jugglers, acrobats, physical culture ex-
ponents, contortionists and clowns,
presented novel specialties. While
many of them were of a traditional
kind, they were all of an ultra-meri-
torious character. Clever Jim," the
up-side-down man, thrilled the audi
tors with his sensational feats of
walking on his head. The perform
ing elephants were also a good card.
This show is conducted on fine bust
ness principles and during it's stay
here yesterday again made many
friends because of the great merit and
cleanliness of everything.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordi-
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for a moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in &C ommon cold. Con-
sumption is not caused by a cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found lodgment. 1t is the same with
all infectious diseases. Diphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough are much more likely to be con-
tracted when the child has a cold. You
will see from this that more real dan
ger turks in a cold than in any othet
of the common ailments The easiest
and quickest way to cure cold is to
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected
by this preparation have made 1t sta

The projectors Of the road feel con.

that it is road on paper" They
claim that it will open up a fine terri
tory that is not now traversed by any
railroad that the territory has fine
timber and splendid agricultural re-
sources and that it will prove paying
investment.
With the showing that they will be
able to make, the promoters have
every confidence in their ability to
finance the new road, and build it
from Meridian to Natchez within a
reasonable time.

morning carried the truant to Laurel,

The runaway pony was the smallest

pony is nine years old.
The pony had made distance of
about ten miles and was only a few
hours in making it. It's destination
