LOCAL FIRM GENEROUS.
One of the things which pleased
the board was the generosity Of
Young & McCombs. The exhibits Of
the firms autumn festival were to a
considerable extent donated 10 the

of vegetables sent directly to the

bakery goods, much was sold by the
management OF the store. the pur-

also to Bethany home.
Things have never had a more
cheerful outlook than the present

ported by the matrOn and committee

Safe Treatment for Headache.

The rational treatment for headache
Is to get at the cause, if possible, and
remove it. Headache is only symp-
tom of trouble somewhere in the sys-
tenn, and dosing with tablets or powders
containing acetanilid or other coal-tar
derivatives which stop the pain tempo
rarily but weaken the heart, is at once
unsafe and unwise. The headache may
come from your eyes, then good ocu-
list can help you at once with proper
eyeglasses; but if it comes with furred
tongue, loss of appetite, nausea, and
constipation, it is usually the result
of disordered digestion, or torpid liver,
and one or two doses of L. F. Atwood S
Medicine will speedily help you by
carrying off impurities and restoring
the clogged digestive organs to their
normal activity. In using this old re-
liable remedy, you take no chances Of
weakening the hearts action.

safe headache remedy. The Il. F.

= Some invest il in lands; some in indl-
| viduai business enterprises; some buy
stocks and bonds.
IF an investment brings satisfactory
returns of dividends it is called good,
| if the returns from investment are not
satisfactory it is called poor. Some
times large sums are invested IN
worthless undertaking; in such case
the money is complete loss.
Eighteen years ago Mr.. Bailey in
vested several thousand dollars at
Good VIII in a cottage home for boys;
il was the first cottage TO be built
here by a single individual and in
those days of small beginnings must
have been regarded as something OF
risk. All these years Mr.. Bailey has
been watching his investment He has
been saying that il is one of the very
best he ever made. When man dis
covers that he has made a poor IN
vestment you will find that he has no
more money for that particular enter
prise; when an investment proves to
be especially good or "gilt-edged' he
is ready 10 invest more of his surplus
in the same undertaking.
Mr.. Bailey is 80 years old: he has
been investing all his lifetime; he is
still regarded as one Of Names

years ago.
1t is second Bailey cottage-not 10
take the place of the first one but 10
supplement it-and to make a helping
hand possible to 80 boys where there

the wisdom of this investment: none

to be as good an investment-I believe
it Will be a better one-than that which
