CURE E. FOR

Many people have used the following
as a cure for tired. aching feet and
found it very beneficial. Place the feet
In warm water for about minutes.
Dry with soft cloth and then, while the
pores are open, battle with X-Zal1a'
liquid that can be had at drug stores
This treatment not only rests the feet

brings permanent relief.

Selling ''Dr. Ritz" Got Him in Trouble.

A week Oh. two since the mayor
of Yazoo City imposed a fine of
$3.50 and 80 days in Jail on one
Pat Godfrey who had been con-
vitcted of selling DR.. Ritz" and
some other bottled drink in which
alcohol is found in larger quanti-
tY than the law allows, and which
makes drunk come just as quick,
If not sooner than does the stuff
that has made Milwaukee famous.
Mr.. Godfrey thought such a
fine and Imprisonment was entire
ly too great punishment and ap-
pealed his case to the board of
mayor and aldermen, explaining
that he did not know it was
against the law to sell such near
beer. = But be knows now. The
city council endorsed what the
mayor had done in toto and by
unanimous vote.
There are hundreds of others in
Mississippi engaged in the same
business, and in the event the
authorities of the cities and towns
where they are making their Iairs
should pounce down on them as
has been done at Yazoo City, they
would put up just about the same
excuse. Daily Clarion Ledger.

A Worthy Successor Of MCLain.

The friends of Hon. e. j. Sim
mons, of Magnolia, have urged
him for some time to run for
Congress 10 this, the seventh, dis
triet; but he has been loath to
foregn a good and growing law
practice for the arena of political
strife. Upon the withdrawal of
Hon. f. A. McLain from the
race, however, Mr.. Simmons
friends became more urgent and
at mass meeting held in Mag
noIia Wednesday of last week he
was induced to offer as a candi-
date. His announcement will be
found in another column.
Edgar j. Simmons needs neither
introduction or encomium at our
hands. The people Of Pike coun-
ty know him; and he is quite we'll
known in adjoining counties and
he will be better known before be
quits the canvass. He is a sound
and able lawyer, thoroughly
equipped and grounded, with a
practice second to none at this bar
and one that extends into the
courts of other counties. Firm,
fearless, conscientious, self-reli-
ant and a tireIess worker are some
of his prominent characteristics.
He is a thorough paced Democrat
and d man Of the people, without
the taint of demagoguery His
word is his bond. True as steel,
friends and clients have never
regretted that they had trusted
him. Wherever placed he will
make good.
Mr.. Simmons is something be.
sides the mere lawyer. For years
he has been at odd times a close
student of political questions,
State and national, and has given
much thought TO current and other
history, as we'll as political econ
|omy. He is, therefore, we'll quail
