For the past two Sundays
Chesterfield has realized what it
means to have the lid clamped
down. Complaint had been made
to the city fathers that there was
too much buying and selling on
the Sabbath in this little burg.
! The law was looked up, with the
result that thirsty man cannot
so much as buy lemonade on
the day of rest. The present
Mayor and council take the logi-
Cal position that laws are passed
to be enforced. There has been
some talk of modifying this Or
dinance, but this will not be
done unless the preponderance
of public opinion seems to war
rant such action.
An interesting story is going
the rounds here of how the Mex
icians made "Stonewalr" Sowell
come in out of the water the
other day. Mr.. Sowell is with
an artillery company now guard
ing the Mexican frontier. One
day when all was quiet on the
Rio Grande some of these sol.
diels decided to take a swim in
the cool water of this river. The
MeXlcans, the mean things.
were watching all the time and
held their fire until "Stonewall'

out of their clothes and into the
water-then began to shoot |,

DO THIS FIRST-YOU!

You know, vaf1d every physician
knows, that when any sickness has
passed, whether it be throat trouble,
organic disturbances, contagious dis
eases, or even a severe cold, a relapse
is feared, because sickness robs the
system of Natures resistance and
leaves it subject to lingering germs.
Drugs never build up a worn-out
body-only food can do that, and the
first thing to take after any sickness is
the concentrated, blood making oil
food IN SCOTS Emulsion, which feeds
the tissues, benefits the blood and
strengthens both lungs and throat.
Physicians prescribe SCOTS Emul-
sionaftersickness. Nurseseverywhere
advocate it. SCOTS is pure medicinal
food, without alcohol or drugs.
