"At rs years of age | became so

tonics and medicines which were pre-
scribed for me without gaining in
strength. 4 friend advised me to try
Vinol, saying that it was a cod liver

This is another instance which de
monstrates the remarkable power of
Vinol to create. strength and build up
health for old people after all other
means have failed.
AS we have yet to learn of an old
person who has ever taken Ninol and
has not been benefited by it we I'M
hesitatingly say to any feeble old per-

no good we will return your money.

The Kansas City Times gets at
the meat of the matter in comment
ing on the Des Moines plan when it
says: THE Des Moines plan of
commission government closes its
first years operation in that city
with 500 in the treasury. When
the old plan of ward government
was abolished, the commissioners
found a deficit of 1925, 900 in the
treasury. The new plan has kept
the city out Of debt. and has given
the people far better service in ev-
cry way than under the old system.
In addition to the fine dividend of
good government, commission gov
eminent has actually saved the tax
payers a large amount of money.
Not only has the Des Moines plan
given Des Moines a business admin
istration for the year past, but after
trying scenes in the City Council, it
has insured a business administra-
ton for the year to come. Of course
it would be pIeasanter If the Coun-
cilmen could agree to disagree on
some things and leave out SO much
personal controversy. But personal
on the council really
give the true test of the plan. For
if men who cordially dislike each
other work together in wise and
ends, the system GER
tainly is vindicated .-Des Moines

Many men go about their own
business, oblivious to their duties
as citizens and blind TO the require
ments of intelligent citizenship, and
when the state of affairs which inev-
itably results from neglect of the
duties of citizenship crashes about
their ears, they cry to the newspa-
peers TO fight the battles of civic
righteousness and reform. In this
or any other case, an honest news
paper generally measures up to its
full duty, and it is a pity that the
same cannot be truthfully said of
every honest citizen. Many, many
citizens. however lack the courage
to fight for their convictions.-Yazoo

Stop and Consider.

All products are high except cot
ton. Cotton is the only farm pro-
duct the farmer offers for sale, ex-
cept in rare cases. None of the
high priced commodities are for
sale by the Southern farmer; they
come from the northwest, and it
requires the great bulk of the cot
ton money to bring them here and
supply the demand. The cotton
planter buys them at high prices,
usually on a credit. What can
and should be done to stop this
waste, for waste it is? The answer
is simple to give but hard to be
needed. Raise more corn, hay
meat, lard and other farm pro-
ducts. If you fail to stop and con-
slider below are the prices you will
pay for the necessaries of life: Corn
s1.0O per bushell, Meat lie per
pound, Lard, 13c per pound, Flour
$50 per barrei.
Cotton is only worth 10c per
pound a price entirely too cheap
when compared with the price of
other farm products.-TupeIo Jour

A man sometimes think it is an
honor to be elected to public office,
but it is better to have never had the
honor than to come out of the office
with the condemnation of those
whom he served. A person by be-
ing brought into public life usually
reveals his real character, and un-
less he measures up To the standard
placed upon him by being chosen to
a position of trust, he comes out of
the office lower in the estimation of
right thinking people than when he
went into the ffice.-Newton Rec

New Jersey led the fight against
the mosquito, inaugurated some
years ago under State entomologist,
J. B. Smith, who won a national
reputation for his knowledge of this
insect pest and how to get rid of it.
New Jersey. it may be incidentally
mentioned, is one of the most mos
quito-ridden States in the Union.
many Jersey lands, otherwise valu-
able, being rendered uninhabitable
because of the mosquitoes. 1t was
argued that their removal would
bring thousands Of acres under cul-
tivation and habitation, and add to
the value of other lands now infest-
ed with mosyuitoes, and thus prove
a profitable enterprise. The legls-
lature voted Mr.. Smith 500, 600
year and authorized him To go on
with his work of exterminating the
mosquitoes. He has done consid
cradle work. especially in the Hack
ensack meadows and around Long
Branch, draining thirty-six square
miles of salt marsh in which the
mosquitoes bred. putting $50 miles
Of ditching, besides a great deal OF
other work, and reducing the num-
Der of MOSQUITOES by the billions;
but apparently he has not accom-
plished his announced purpose Of
completely graduating them. for
the legislature has shut off his sup
plies and he is now dependent upon
private contributions, always uncer-
tain, 10 carry on his work.
This interruption in the fight Is
greatly to be regretted, for the New
jersey experiment was watched with
interest by all mosquito-r ridden Sec
tons. and had it proved a success
other States would have followed
the example; indeed, we might al
NEST have hoped for the complete
Punishment Of the mosquito from
this country. OF course, it was
scarcely to be expected that Mr..
Smith would destroy every hiding
place within a year two. and posi-
bly, sin his enthusiasm he promised
too much. He still claims that as
far as he went his work was sue
cessful, and that the mosquitoes
have returned ia the places from
which he drove them; but there are
still mosquitoes tn New Jersey, and
the legislature is unwilling to put
up more money to get rid of them,
not approaching the fact that a cam
paign of this kind must Inevitably
be carried on for several years in or
der to accomplish complete success.
1t is gratifying to note at the
same time that the City Board Of
Health has not abandoned its cam
paign, but has announced its pur-
pose to carry on it's campaign on
the same lines as those adopted by
Prof. Smith, in New Jersey. Per-
haps its work may serve to keep
alive interest in this work of mos
quito destruction. New Orleans

Holmes county s board of super
visors is debating the question of
taxing dogs and is trying to asser-
tain the viii of the people upon this
important subject before taking ac-
ton. We predict the movement
will come to naught. At every SEES
sion of the legislature bill propos-
ing q dog tax is introduced and reg
ularly meets an untimely end.
Whiiesthere Is no good reason that
dogs should not be taxed as other
property, The howl that is raised by
the cannines' owners makes the
dogs themselves ashamed of their
own puny voices. That class of
people who think more of their can
mines than their children have a way
of multiplying their voices into
such a seeming majority that no
Mississippi legislative body has yet
appeared with the temerity to op-
pose them.-Hernando Times Pro
