Der that sparkling" has been
one of the prescribed courses in
some of the departments of. the
school for the last two or three
years and instruction in this par

consistently and more systemat-

MATES and history, and perhaps
some of your Normal pupils are

side. At any rate you will have

A WORD TO THE WISE.

Mr.. Voter, do you realize how
much help yoI can be to your IA
vorite candidate by taking adj
vantage Of the opportunity offer
ed by the CoURIER's straw vote?
DO you grasp the meaning of
what 1000 citizens Of Morgan
county registering their votes for
some one candidate in this straw
contest would mean? Don't you
know that such a vote as this
would prove so conclusively that
that particular candidate was the
strongest man that he would
have no opposition in the August
primary? Do you know that a
choice of a nominee thus express
ed would be free from the least
suspicion of corruption? The
readers Of the COURIER are the
essence Of Morgan county's citi-
zenship and any action taken by
them, or by majority of them,
could not fail to meet with pub
lie approval. A candidate for
the nomination for a county office
could do no better campaigning
than to go among his friends and
urge them to take advantage of
the straw vote and give him a
boost. A few cents spent for
postage and an hour spent in
writing to your personal friends
asking them TO register their
votes for you might do you more
good than $4,000 put into q
Doodle fund.
Think this matter over, Mr..
Candidate and Mr. Voter, and
act the wiser part.

Easter Sunday for 1918 will
happen on March %. A writer
in the st. Louis Post-Dispatch
says: Easter bonnets will bios
som earlier this year than they
have since 1856 and earlier than
they will burst into bloom for an
other century. The earliest date
on which Easter can fall is March
70, but that hasn't happened
since 1918. This year it will be
March %, the same date on
which it fell in 1856 and 1915.
The Rev. Father Martin S. Bren-
nan, a noted st. Louis astrono-
mer, told a Post-Dispatch report
er that tables computed by math-
ematicians have not been carried
far enough to show just how
long it will be before Easter
again falls on so early a date, but
that it will not occur until some
time after the year 1000. The
rule for fixing the date of Easter
originally was that it was the
Sunday after the first full moon
following the spring equinox
The equinox falls on March 81
According to a ruling of the
council at Nice, if March q is {
Saturday and there is a full moor
on that day, 1.-THE following day will
be Easter. This year March q
will be Friday and there will b.
a full moon Saturday.

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, childs bowels should be
constantly watched, and gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters Of
Christian Charity, s3I Charles ST.,
Luzerne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using Dr.
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters arc very
much pleased"
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised In using DR.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff.
Guilty is overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-likc taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for childtcn.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the price is returned. Ask your
druggist. A box Of rs doses costs
only rs cents. Never sold i'll bulk.
