FoIey's Honey and
Tar Stops those
Night Coughs
They Are Weakening, and Disturb the
Whole Family.

Coughs and colds usually grow worse at
nightfall. Keep bottle of FoLEYs HONEY
AND TAR COMPOUND at hand. Use it freely
there is nothing in it that can possibly harm
you. But 1t clears the throat Of phlegm and
mucus, stops the coughing and tickling, and
heals the raw infiamed surfaces.
GEO. d. COBBS, Many, La, says: "My wife
was troubled with a terrible cough, and We
could get nothing to relieve her until asked
Dr. Self OF Hornbeck, who recommended
FoLEI's HONEY AND TAR so strongly that
purchased 500 bottle. Before the contents
Of this bottle were used, the cough had en-
tirely disappeared and her health was COM
pletely restored"
PHIL DESoRMEAU ,schaffsr Mich, writes:
LAST winter l could not sleep at night on ac-
count OF q bad cough. 1t did not bother me
during the day, but started up at bedtime and
kept me from sleeping. was very weak and
in bad shape. started using FoLEY's HONEY
AND TAR and was greatly pleased to find that
the cough left me entirely, my appetite i'm.
proved, and slept soundly at night"

Birth Rate Here and Elsewhere

A comparison of the number of
births in 1914 with those of the pre-
vious twelve months, said DR.. John NJ.
j. Raunick, Chief of the Bureau of
Health and Sanitation, prompted his
statement in his annual report that the
percentage of birth increases for the
last year in Harrisburg gives cause for
alarm. The Health officer further says
he did not lost sight of the figures
which confronted him when he made
comparisons of Harrisburg's record
that that of other cities. The Health
Officer says the number of births here
has been at the rate of 1872 per thou
sand of population, which he declares
to be ratio lower than in any other
city of the size in the State. The
cities of Erie, York. Lancaster, Read
ing. Easton and Altoona and the first
class cities all have swamped Harris.
burg in so far as the birth rate is con
cerned, according to DR.. Raunick's in
formation. Harrisburg can boast about
its reduced death rate, but even that
is bettered by some other cities.

stork Most Active in Ninth Ward

DR.. Raunick insists that the subject
of births and deaths cannot be taken
too seriously. "Why, just look at
that!" he said as he pointed to the
Third ward figures, which show that
the total number of births in the ward
was but 2S, an average of only trifle
more than two month. But he
eouldn t refrain from smiling as he ran
his finger down over the sheet and
stopped at the Ninth ward, which
showed 227 births. The Ninth ward
has the record. The Seventh is second
with 1916 and the Second is next with
III.

STREET CARS STOPPED.

The reported expectation Of the
Alexandria Street Car Compan,
to stop the car lines throughout
the city, has caused no end of ex.
citement and CONSERVATION among
the citizens, not only those who
have to use the car line, but those
public spirited citizens who real
lie what a blow it would be to
Alexandria to have the line dis
continued. OF course. a city of
the size of Alexandria will have
to have car line sooner or later,
but to allow the one that is ia ope-
ration to stop for any ei,gth of
time wiz be blow t. tie good
name or the city.
We have always cortehdco that
the City of Alexandria should
own the car line, and that by run
ming it in conjunction with the
city's light plan, it can be made to
pay. We still believe this to be
possible, and think that some
thing should be done along this
line.-Town Talk.

Representative Montague of
Abbeville. La, is quoted as say
ing that there is a rice mil!ers
trust in Louisiana thai fixes the
price Of rice, and he wants the
legislature of Louisiana TO in
clude it in the fight being made
against the sugar trust. If there
is rice millers trust in Louisi-
ana, the way to fight it is not in
the courts, but by combination OF
farmers. There is no danger of
anybody ever trying to prosecute
a farmers trust. Whether such a
trust is legal or illegal is Of small
consequence, for the reason that
even if a farmers trust were H.
legal under both federal and state
laws nobody would undertake to
invoke the law against it. The
Louisiana legislator is firing blank
cartridges when he attacks an al
legged rice milling trust in the leg
islature.-Beaumont Enterprise.

Commenting on the Rayne Tri
bune' s recent experience with an
alleged bargai merchant of a
neighboring town which involved
the loss to that office of labor and
material used in 1000 1Sx24 post
ers, the Eunice Star says:
"The newspaper must do some
thing to protect themselves from
such imposition as The Rayne
Tribune mentions. Should the
weekly newspapers of our state
keep list of those who defraud
them out of advertising, jon
printing and subscriptions, the
number of such scoun-
drels would be astonishing. We
can only look on such people as
enemies Of the press and treat
them accordingly. The individ-
ual who is so ready to do the
newspaper, is also an enemy to
the community in which the paper
circulates. because newspaper are
