Caught Cold!

How often it happens that Sc
rious illness, and sometimes
death. is directly traceable to
neglect Of common cold.
After 1t is too late, what
wouldn't we give to have checked
the cold at the start, when it
would quickly yield to simple
home treatment
A most effective remedy, that
will usually break up cold over
night and quickly relieve the
most irritating cough, is made
by mixing 2 ounces Of glycer1ne,
a haIf-ounce of virgin oil of pine
and 8 ounces OF pure whisky
Shake well, and take teaspoon
full four times a day The in
gradients for this mixture can
be bought III any good drug
store. and easily mixed together
in a large bottle This formula
was used and recommended for
many years by the late Dr. w. A
Leach, who founded the Leach
Chemical Co., of Cincinnati, o.,
in whose laboratories the virgin
oil of pine is compounded.

IL is now fitting that this League
should rejoice with our race every.

We hope in other constructive di-

In the last analysis the fitness of
a race for freedom. the ability of a
race to make progress is tested by
whether or not Individual mem
bers of the race have the ability in
their own communities, in theft own
surroundings, TO sink personal. selfish
ambitions in the interest of bringing
about the general good and larger
progress or the whole people Too
often progress is delay ed and him
dered by reason of the fact that the
strong men and women in each com

aside, 60 put their feet upon their
personal views and petty Quarrels
and enter into strong constructive.

their whole community. Let us every
where teach the world this lesson
that the individual members of the
Negro race may differ i'm personal
matters. in social matters. in pollti-

at the same time that we have the
ability when the time comes TO sink
all OF these and unite on any pro.

cause they had become discouraged

The mineral wealth of the extra land
