COUNCIL OFFICERS.
With the full realization of the de-
sire OF the local Knights OF Columbus
in the institution OF their council,
the selection OF their officers became
OF paramount Importance. the new
council needed and demanded men
who stood high and clean In the COM
munity; men whose fealty TO their
faith insured fealty to their organiza-
tjou, and with this idea 10 view, no
doubt, the able corps was named to
guide the new council through the
uncertain course of its first year.
z. Fl. Rodrigue, the grand knight,
is prosperous, progressive and active
business man OF the community.
Some years ago be Identified himself
with Pascagoula, and brought new
money to the port. The misfortune
of a fire retarded his progress at the
moment that success and prosperity
appeared to be at hand, and be was
compelled to practically begin all over
again. He was one Of the active
workers for the bringing about Of the
Institution OF the new council, and
the choice for grand knight appeared
to fall by right OF common consent tf
him.

against the millions OF working men
and women from whose earnings the
great proportion OF these colossal
sums must be extorted through excess
sive tariff exactions and other indl-
rect methods. 1t Is not surprising 10
view Of this shocking record that the
republican platform contains no refer
ence to economical administration or
promises thereof in the future. We
demand that stop be put to this
frightful extravaganza and insist
unon the strlctest economy In every
d partment compatible with frugal
aud efficient administration.
MORE EXTRAVAGANCE.
tCoincident with the enormous fu'
crease in expenditures is like addt-
tion to tile number OF office holders.
During the last year 23.7S4 were
added, costing $l6156, 900, and In tbe
last six years of the republican ad-
minisrratlon the total number OF new
offices created has been so, 3l9 entail
Ing an additional expenditure OF
nearly $70,000,000, as against only
/ 1929 created under the Cleveland
and Mckinley administrations, which
involved an expenditure OF only g.
600, 900. We denounce this great and
growing increase OF the number Of
office holders as not only unnecessary
and wasteful but also as clearly indi
eating deliberate purpose on the
part OF the administration to keep
the republican party 10 power at pub
lie expense by thus increasing tho
number OF its retaiuers and depend
ents.

CURE BAD COLDS

You will distinctly feel your
cold breaking and all the Grippe
symptoms leaving after taking the
very first dose.
1t Is positive fact that Papes
Cold Compound, taken every two
hours, until three consecutive
doses are taken, will end the
Grippe and break up the most Sc

chest, back, stomach or limbs.
It promptly relieves the most
miserable headache, dizziness. head
and nose stuffed up, feverishness,
sneezing, sore throat, running OF
the nose, mucous catarrhal dis
charges, soreness, stiffness aho
rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the
result of three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand
dollars and contains no quinine,
which we have conclusively DEM
onstrated is not effective in the
treatment of colds or grippe.
Take this harmless compound
as directed, with the knowledge
that there is no other medicine in
the world which will cure your
cold or end grippe misery as
promptly and without any other
assistance or had after-effects as a
25-cent package of Pape's Cold
Compound, which any druggist in
the world can supply.

EXTERNAL USES OF SUI
PHURRO

To avoid staining the bath tub,
the following precautions should be
adhered to prior to the first bath
once done, the succeeding Sulphur
70 Baths will not stain the tub.
Fill the tub full of very hot
water; add one package Zone pound)
of baking soda and let stand over
night. In the morning drain and
rinse tub. In following these direc-
tions any acid i'm the pores of the
tub Will be neutralized and there
by prevent the tub from showing
stains of the Sulphurro.
Where Dutch Cleanser, Coal Oil,
Gasoline, Turpentine, or Soaps are
used In cleansing the tub, the Sui
phurro does not discolor the tub.
but If any substance containing acid
has been used as a tub cleanser
within a year, the first Sulphurro
Bath would turn the bath tub brown
and although some time may be
spent in cleaning it. each succeeding
bath will turn 1t just the same, as
the Sulphurro acts directly upon
acid. II these directions have been
overlooked and the tub has become
stained, the air will in time remove
1T; however. to remove it at once,
use turpentine. peroxide or chloride
of lime.

DISEASES

Take the dose as directed; also
the Tub Bath or Foot Bath with the
Sulphurro in the water. Mote spe-
cial instructions for these baths.)
Paint inflamed parts. The High Ene-
ma will benefit all. but IL consti-
pated, MUST BE USED. (See book

The following suggestions as to
diet will hasten recovery:
Those suffering from Rheumatism
shout eat no beef, and very little
meat of any kind. Avoid sweets
particularly candy) and starchy
foods. Do not eat Strawberries,
rhubarb, currants. gooseberries.
cranberries or oranges. Any salad
containing vinegar is bad. Avoid
the combination of acids with sweets

EFFECT OF sULPaURRO ON
RHEUMATIC PATIENTS
After taking the Sulphurro for a
time. it will be noticed the Stom-
ach is in better condition; then the
Rheumatism will begin to scatter,
causing perhaps for a few days
nearly as much pain in another part
as 1T did in rs OLE location. In some
