Peruna VIII Stop That Cough

Do not stop a cough by taking de-
peasants or opintes. a cough
stopped that way will return.
Stop a cough by taking q tonic, like
Peruna- This rids the system OF the
irritation that caused the cough.
Cough Is an effort on the part OF
nature to clear the bronchial tubes.
1t is mistake to stop cough, ex-
cept by assisting nature In clearing
the tubes. Opiates and depressants
simply numb the nervous system and
the cough stops. leaving the poison
GUS and Irritating materials In the
bronchial tubes. This will soon affect
the lungs. Let us stop the cough
with Peruna, that strengthens and
builds up and removes the irritation.

 It is a mere willingness to endeavor to do things-a willingness to try to overcome. unaided-a readiness to tackle the unpleasant as well as the agreeable tasks-the being prepared to go forward without persuasion from others and put one's hand to the blow.
 It is a sort of simple acceptance of the fact that work is to be done and that it behooves one to do 1t.
 Many persons reveal their lack of faith in themselves by sitting down and waiting for friends to present them on a silver platter as it were, with gilt edged opportunities, but chances thus presented if they materialize at all are geenrally lost because the person who does not bestir himself to find them, who waits for others to present. them, and point out their advantages, usual- ly underates their value and let's them slip away
 It is a high-a very highland very fine thing to believe ones self destined to joy and greatness
 Dreams keep one looking up-and faith ip one's destiny is. like walking toward a golden sunset
 What is dust to one whose eyes are lifted to beauty and the heightse
 He who believes himself destined to high things travels upward toward the stars toward the refreshing coolness of heights, toward the shadow of great rocks-and as one mounts, 1t is easier

FEDERAL AID FOR
 ROADS INDORSED
Prosperity Identified With Good Highways Is Sense of American
 Roads Congress

Atlanta, November 12-Federal aid for the construction of main highways was indorsed here today in resolutions adopt ed by the American Road congress. Other resolutions favorably acted upon advo- cated state highway departments, urged better protection against accidents on roads and commended the proposed trans continental highway intended as a me- morial to Abraham Lincoln.
 Prosperity of especially the rural sec tions of the nation was held to be closely identified with good roads and inter community of interest. it was said, justi- fled the principle of federal cooperation in the construction of improved highways. Further federal aid was believed to be in prospect.
 State highway departments were held to be a necessity in obtaining efficiency and economy in '.oad construction and mainte- nance.
 Forty of the 4s states were asserted to have county and state road legislation, and the enactment of laws was urged in the remainder. In this connection 1t was recommended that highway officials put into effect regulations intended to de- crease accidents on public roads.
