That History of Faith
er Johns Medicine is
True.
A Do tors Prescription
Which Cures Colds;
Heals Throat and
Lungs.

Use of Alcohol or Dangerous
Drugs. Fifty Years in Use.

AS a guarantee that the story of
Father Johns Medicine is absolutely
true, the sum of $4,000 will be

Half a century ago. when the Rev.
Father John O'Brien of Lowell,
Mass, recommended to his parishion-

had restored him to health and
strength, the people named it Father
Johns Medicine.
Its power to cure colds and throat
and lung troubles is due to the fact
that it gives vital strength to fight
the disease.
Remember that Father Johns
Medicine is a pure and wholesome
food medicine for those who are
weak and run down. 1t does not
contain alcohol or dangerous drugs.
Not a patent medicine but a doctors

Every Day Dangers

The great danger in colds at this
season of the year is that they lead
to chronic throat and lung troubles,
pneumonia and consumption.
The moment you begin to take
patent medicines and so-called cough
cures, the majority Of which depend
entirely on Notwithstanding drugs
for their effect, you weaken the
body.
That takes away the fighting pow
er necessary to ward off disease, and
the grip and pneumonia germs de-
velop and because the body is weak
ened is why pneumonia is so often
fatal.

THE ROAD DISTRICT MATTER

AT its meeting last night the cit,
council adopted unanimously a reso
luton opposing the proposed consoli
dation OF Road Districts No. I am
No. Q, as asked by petition numer
orsly signed by citizens OF Cairo an,
submitted to the Board OF Count!
Commissioners, which is to act OF
same April IL. The request that such
a resolution be passed came from the
road commissioners of the Cairo dis
trict This request is given in the
report Of the proceedings elsewhere,
and Il will be observed that the rea-
son given for opposing the proposed
consolidation of the districts al this
time, ID that the roads in the district
as now constituted are In an lin.
finished condition.
The reason Is good one ON its
face. but just how strongly it ought
TO weigh against the proposed con
sofidation can be judged better by
clear and full statement as to what
these unfinished roads" are, and
how far their completion would bene-
ut Cairo, as compared with what
could be accomplished for the benefit
OF Cairo through the consolidation.
II il to be regretted that the city
council did not deem 1t necessary to
have the matter fully presented be.
fore adopting the resolution, being
content to accept the private per
sonal assurances Of the Road Commits
sioners against the wishes of the PEG.
pie, as expressed in the petition to
the county, board.
The unfinished roads" referred to
are the cross roads in the Cairo
Drainage District, which run through
land which Is not settled and nCy
under cultivation. 1t is argued that
the building Of the roads would cause
this land to be cultivated and thus
benefit Cairo, which may be freely
granted. But against this stands the
TACT that the upper portion OF the
county Is already settled with pros
porous farmers who probably would
come to Cairo IL they could, and the
consolidation of the districts is neces-
sary In order that Cairo may build
road so that they can come here.
Clearly, the thing of first Importance
to Cairo from business poin of view
Is to build the latter road first and let
the cross roads through unoccupied
lands, come later.
More than likely the county com.
missioners will consider the subject
more fully than the city council seems
to have done.
