THE CAUSE OF COLDS
Good Advise Regarding the Prevention
of Colds and Coughs.

If people would only fortify and
strengthen the system. the majority
of cases of coughs, colds and pneu-
monia might be avoided. These
troubles are frequent and due to weak
mes, which produces catarrhal con-
dition of the mucous membrane,
which is an internal skin of the body.
When the skin is weakened it be-
comes easily infected with the germs
which cause many of the diseases to
which the flesh is heir. Healthy mu-
cous membranes are essential safe
guards of the body's general health.
An excellent aid in the prevention
of coughs, colds, pneumonia, and such
like infectious diseases, is a remedy
that will prevent or cure catarrh.
We have a remedy which we hon.
estly believe to be unsurpassed in
excellence for the prevention of
coughs, colds and all catarrhal condi-
tions. 1t is the prescription of ia
nous physician, who has an enviable
reputation Of thirty vars of cures gain
ed through the use of this formula.
We promise to make no charge for
the medicine should it fail to do as
we claim. We urge everybody who
has need Of such a medicine to try
Rexall Muco-Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could
not afford to make such statements
and give our own personal guarantee
to this remedy if We were not pre-
pared to prove the reasonableness of
our claim in every particular, and we
see no reason why any one should
hesitate to accept our offer and try
it. We have two sizes of Rexall Mu-
co-Tone, prices so cents and $1.00.
Sometimes a so cent bottle is suffi-
cient to give marked relief. AS a
general thing the most chronic case is
relieved with an average of 8 large
bottles. You can obtain Rexall Rem
edies in Hattiesburg only at our
store-The Rexall Store. The Owl
Drug Store, F. E. Williams & Sons,

Is the grasshopper pest to become

An affirmative answer to this ques.
tion is likely as result of dis.

ed that the grasshopper is subject to
a fungus disease that carries off the
insects by the thousand How to cause
infection and rapid spread of the dis
ease whenever srasshoppers become
too numerous is the next question to
be solved.
The pests made serious inroads on
crops In some sections Of the state
during the past summer, and the farm.
ers have been wishing for an effective
remedy. From unofficial sources 1t is
learned that the college planned to
corral some thousands of healthy
grasshoppers during the next few
weeks to use them for incubation ex.

ease can be successfully transmitted,
