A HELPING HAND
From the Peoria Chronicle

From the Peoria Chronicle.
When you see that a man is
down do not kick him. Try to
conquer the brutal instincts that
hamper your soul. Lend him a
helping hand. If you see that he
IS struggling under burdens that
are more than he is able to bear
help him up. You may need help
yourself some day.
= You cannot live always in this
Aworld. Try to do some good to
Others while you are gratifying
your own desires. When a man
is in hard luck give him chance
to rise. Men are not always dis
honest because they cannot re-
spond to every call. Sometimes
they just cannot do it, and then
they need help.
Ii youWere the only man who
was to survive the balance of
your fellows it would be differ
ent. But you and they must pass
away. The time is not long. Try
to make it as pleasant as possible.
Many poor felloV has been driv-
en- down to his grave premature
~ by stress of trouble.
There are more ways to tor
ture a man to death besides re-
sortingtothe rack, the lash, the
wheel or the flames. Let man
feel that you have confidence in
him and give him all the encour-
agement that you can when he is
down, and when he is able to rise
he will not forget you. Neither
will God.

That is to the point. 1t is a

not make them "sick" or leave

it at any time in just the size

fectly sure it will leave them feel

taken it. There is not a harmful
ingredient, but only those "aids

/, by every physician, and these in
the best possible proportion tc
meet the need of everyone re-

MEMPHIS PLANNING FOR
GROCERS' CONVENTION

Memphis, Tenn, May 5.-The
annual meeting of the Southern
Wholesale Grocers Association
which will be held in this city on
the 24th, 18th and 10Th of this
month, is, from the point of val
tie and extent of business trans
acted, perhaps the most import
ant convention that assemblies
south Of the Ohio River, and the
problems with which it has to
deal come more nearly home to
the general public than those of
any other assemblage.
The meeting this year will be
addressed by such distinguished
authorities as the following:
Hon. w. P. G. Harding, of the
Federal Reserve Board, Washing
ton, d. C., who will speak on
Trade Acceptances."
Hon. Ralph w. Moss, Member
OF congress from Indiana, who
will speak on Rural Credits"
DR.. Carl L. Alsberg, chief che
mist of the Department of Agri-
culture, Washington, D. c.
DR.. E. E. Pratt, chief of the Blu
reau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, Washington, D. c.
Mr.. Beverly d Harris, vice
president of the National City
Bank of New York.
Mr.. Fairfax Harrison, presi-
dent of the Southern Railway,
Washington, D. c.
Dr. H. E. Barnard, State Food
and Drug Commissioners of In
diana.
Mr. Richard Dickinson, presi-
dent of the National Gamers AS
ISOLATION, Eureka, III.
Local committees of wholesale
grocers are working hard and
earnestly in conjunction with the
Southern Association to prepare
what promises to be the strong
est program ever offered at these
annual meetings. Wholesalers
rom the Rio Grande to the Poto-
mac, and from the Ohio to the
Gulf will be gathered here for
the convention, and their DELHI
erations will solve many of the
problems affecting the grocery
trade of the South.
On the third day of the meet
ing Friday, May 26th-will be
held Bankruptcy Law Confer
ence, which will be addressed by
many prominent national author
tiles. The question of repeal or
amendment of the National Bank
ruptcy Law will be thoroughly
discussed, and it is expected that
remedial measures of the utmost
value will be propagated. Chair
man WEBB, OF the committee on
the Judiciary of the House OF
Representatives, has written to
President McLaurin of the South
ern Wholesale Grocers Associa-
ton, commencing the idea of the
conference and saying that his
committee would regard express
ions from the meeting as very
valuable.
The city of Memphis purposes
making the convention success
in every respect, and to that end
all commercial organizations here
are giving earnest consideration
to the matter handling the inn
mense number o visitors with the
greatest regard for their welfare,
