WAR UPON PAIN !!

Pain is a visitor to every home and
usually comes quite Unexpectedly. But
you are prepared for every emergency
if you keep a small bottle of Sloan's
Liniment handy. 1t is the greatest
pain killer ever discovered. Simply
laid on the skin--no rubbing required
it drives the pain away. 1t is really
wonderful.
Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal,
writes: "Last Saturday, after tramp
ing around the Panama Exposition
with wet feet, I came home with my
neck so stiff that l couldn't turn. I
applied Sloan's Liniment freely and
went to bed. To my surprise, next
morning the stiffness had almost dis
appeared, four hours after the second
application I was as good as new" =

Mahomet.
The imminence of war is casting a
blight owe even our own fair COM
munity. Leap year is in full bloom
and the weddings have hardly COM

When a fellow can't attract atten-
ton any other way he just gets out
in front of better people and makes a
big noise, and the noise is about the
only thing seen or heard.

Of course you know who wrote the
Declaration of independence, and can
name the authors of our standard die
tionaries, histories and other works,
but WHO WROTE THE BIBLE?
n n n
No use talking, fellows, this war
must peter out. Thousands and
thousands of lives are being sacrificed
and the generals and admirals can
not get enough glory to go around.
Even the kings, emperors and other
fools can only tear off an occasional
sniff.
