Rank F0olishness

You occasionally see it stated that
colds do not result from cold wealth
er. That is rank foolishness. Were
it true colds would be as prevalent
in midsummer as in midwinter. The
microbe that causes colds fiourishes
in damp, cold weather. To get rid
of a cold take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t is effectual and is highly
recommended by people who have
used it for many years as occasion
required, and know it's real value.
Obtainable everywhere.

FAULTFINDING.

Often the most unhappy peo-
pie are those who have lost the
art of admiration and become
experts in the art of fauItfind-
ing. Beauty is everywhere, but
they see it not because of the
flaws somewhere below it. Fault
finders should turn their magni-
flying glasses upon themselves
and there discover why they are
not loved.
