DANCERS of a Cold

Do you know that of all the minor
ailments colds are by far the most
dangerous? 1t is not the colds them
selves that you need not fear, but the
serious diseases that they so often
lead to. For that reason every cold
should be gotten rid of with the least
possible delay. To accomplish this
you will find Chamberlain g Cough
Remedy of great help to you. 1t

Guarding Against Group.

The best safeguard against Group
is bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar
Compound in the house. P. H. CHM,
Middleton, Ga, writes: "My children

every instance they get, prompt re-

few apt questions, Tony found him
self sobbing out the whole story.
When he had finished the manager
patted him on his curly head and said

that you have learned lesson, not

haired dollie to take to the little
sister,
Tony dried his tears, his handsome
little face beamed with gladness and
with a sudden movement he bent
and kissed the hand of his benefac-
tor. 1t was quickly withdrawn, and
the manager rather embarrassed,
turned to his desk and began writ
ing.
The little fellow took it for his dis
missal and was half through the door
way when the manager called over
his shoulder for him to come back.
Tony shut the door and walked to
the desk. What is your name?"
asked the man without turning his
head
Antonio Arno." replied the little
boy.
The chair creaked violently as the
manager wheeled quickly around in it.
"What?' he almost shouted. Tony
repeated his name, and got as far as
Arm" when he was interrupted by
Quick, what is your fathers name
and where is he.?''
Il do not know where he is" said
Tony, But his name is Alessandro
Arno." And the next moment he was
in the arms of the manager who was
crying and laughing all at once,
MY SONNY little son-at last, at
LAST for he was none other than
Antonio s long lost father.
Allessandro Arno, lonely exile of
Naples was lonely no more, for that
might Maria, the Cherub and Tony
left forever the gloomy tenement
which had for so long been their only
home, and went to the beautiful
house that Alessandro had repaired
for them nearly four years before.

THE ELMORE DEVELOPMENT
LEAGUE
THE:
(By F. G. Ticlnor, Sec'y)

(By F. G. Ticknor, Sec'y)
The Elmore Development League
was organized Oct. third, 1913 and
embraces in its membership over
forty of the leading citizens of Noun
tain Home and vicinity. 1t was
formed for the purpose of creating
and maintaining a public sentiment in
and about Mountain Home that will
accord to every individual, not only
the right to pursue his business under
favorable conditions, but an incentive
to exert his best efforts; promoting
and encouraging all legitimate enter
priSes; working for our neighbors'
success; discouraging the practice of
knocking; and doing generally all
those things that will increase the
opportunity of each individual to at
tain greater success in his chosen
business or profession.
We believe that Mountain Home
is more favorably situated than any
other town in Idaho on the Oregon
Short Line; it has larger trade ter
ritory, extending on the south to the
Nevada line, and on the north to At
lanta, and its soil and climate are
the equal of any town on the line.
We believe the depression existing
here is due in a great measure to a
lack of effort by our citizens and to
chronic state of fault finding and
complaint over business conditions,
Strangers coming to our town, in
stead of finding a glad welcome and
healthy sentiment, find a dissatis-
fled disheartened, complaining
and knocking community. These con-
ditions and this temperament of our
citizens are constantly driving from
our door new life and new capital
that We are entitled to and should
have. When times are prosperous,
the individual can take care of him
self. It is in times of depression,
such as the present, that union Is
necessary. We believe that unit
ed effort by our citizens can make
Mountain Home the best town In
Idaho, and We have pledged ourse[
YES to an earnest, united endeavor
to make it the best.
We are for Mountain Home and
vicinity, its growth, prosperity, and
the success of its citizens.
