EDITORS FRIENDS
RESENT AN insult
REfUTE ROBINSON CHARGE
DANVILLE CITIZENS EXPRESS
CONFI ENCE IN EDITOR
POUNDS INTEGRITY.

In an editorial in this weeks Dan
Vile Democrat, Editor I. l.. Pound
denounces as false an insulting
charge published in the Little Rock
Gazette, intimating that the Demo
oats editorial support of Governor
Donaehey had been bought, and MIR.
Pound also publ shes voluntary
statement by his friends in Danville
branding the charge as an unwar-
ranted aspersion on the character OF
one of their respected fellow-citizens
In reference to the matter, the Dem
ocrat says editorially:
us there a paper in the state that
does not publish political communica-
tons at so much per? We want to
say, however, that the editorial opin-
.ons of the Democrat are not for sale
at any old price. And in this partie-
ular instance Governor Donaghey nor
anyone for him has not paid or
agreed to pay the Democrat for any
thing that has appeared in its col
umns. We are for Donaghey because
We believe he is right, and against
/ Robinson because he is mixed up with
the wrong element for the best inter
ests of the state, and no money con
s.derat:on figures in the matter what
ever. Any insinuations or utterances
to the contrary we resent with scOfn
and contempt. On the other hand. We
have been approached by some 0f
Robinson's friends to come out in our
paper and support Robinson, saving
there would be articles for publica-
ton later that would be paid for. but
We have never been able to see our
way clear to do so, because We sin
cerely believe that it is not for the
best interest of the state to elect him
governor, when We come to consider
the interests of those who are his
principal hackers in this campaign. "
The Democrat also publishes the
following statement, which was hand
ed to the editor after the publication
of the Gazette article:
'To Whom it May Concern: Hav-
ing confidence in the integrity and
Honesty of 7. L. Pound, editor of the
Danville Democrat, we desire to say

BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING

when my baby was six months old,
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell of, and the sores were over
the entire body, causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come of when l removed his
shirt.
I'VE tried a great many remedies,
but nothing would. help him, till a.
friend induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. used the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment but a short
time before I could see that he was
improving, and in six weeks time he
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. think the Cuticura Rem
edies will do all that is claimed for
them, and a great deal more"

THE OLD PLEA
He "DIdn't Know II Was Loaded"

The coffee drinker seldom realizes
that coffee contains the drug, caffeine,
a severe poison to the heart and
nerves, causing many forms Of dis
ease, noticeably dyspepsia.
II was lover of coffee and used it
for many years, and did not realize th&
bad effects I was suffering from its,
use. (Tea is just as injurious as cot
fee because it, too, contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.)
"At first was troubled with indiges-
ton. l did not attribute the trouble
arose from other causes. With these
attacks l had sick headache, nausea
and vomiting. Finally my stomach
was in such condition could scarce
ly retain any food.
Il consulted a physician; was told
all my troubles came from indiges-
ton, but was not informed what
caused the Indigestion. kept on with
the coffee, and kept on with the trou-
bles, too, and my case continued to
grow worse from year to year until it
developed into chronic diarrhea, nau.
sea and severe attacks of vomiting. l
could keep nothing on my stomach and
became mere shadow, reduced from
159 to 128 pounds.
"A specialist informed me / had a
very severe case of catarrh of the
stomach, which had got so bad he
could do nothing for me, and became
convinced my days were numbered.
Then CHANGED to see an article set
ting forth the good qualities of Postum

pie so l concluded to give Postum a,
trial. soon saw the good effects-my
headaches were less frequent, nausea
and vomiting only came on at long in
tervals and was soon a changed man..
feeling much better.
Then thought / could stand coffee,
again, but as soon as l tried it my old
troubles returned and / again turned

enough to quit coffee for good and
