made by thrusting two sticks into the
ground so as to meet at an angle; when
they are withdrawn two tunnels are
left behind \ hollow reed is stuck in

operations the native fills his mouth
with water, drawing in the smoke with

Walking In the Open Air
The Best Spring Tonic

walk some every day has been pre-
scribed as a preventive Of spring fever.
But this does not mean walking i'll ana
about the house or standing on your
feet while at work 1t means going for
Il walk in the open air and sunshine,
behind and enjoying walking for the
good it will do.
As spring comes ON the body requires
extra attention. 1t needs toning up IL
order to properly adjust itself TO the
change of season and to completely re-
cover from the bad effects of high tenn
peratures and indoor living during the
winter. But drugs, pills and purgatives
are not needed. They do more harm
than good.
Walking every day in the open air is
particularly recommended. whether 1t
be walking to work or walking for
healths sake As to the health value of
walking DR.. William A. Howe says:
This means Of improving health.
like fresh air, is within the reach OF
most people. Its energizing influence
should be more widely utilized. \ rea-
sOEable distance should be walked ev-
cry day regardless of weather condi-
lions. 1t is not well to walk SD rapidly
or so far as to induce fatigue from
which one does not promptly recover.
Neither is II advisable to walk rapidly
IN the face of strong wind O. on u
rough road or In ascending hill"

TESTIMONIALS

Company Publishes Only.
Genuine Ones.

The testimonials published by the

come unsolicited. Before they are used
the Company takes great care to inform
itself about the writer. Never know
ingly, has it published an untruthful
letter, never is letter published with
out written consent signed by the writer.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters is that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and illness.
1t has relieved women from some of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, inflammation, liberation,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.

makes the special effort for the
week amount toS6S. 10 in addition
to the S92 on Franklinton mem
bership drive.
Mrs. Kerr with the assistance
of Mrs. T. j. Hayes, chairman
of the executive committee of
the Red Cross Chapter, very for
cibly impressed Red Cross work
on the town by having a dozen or
more young ladies in Red Cross
nurses costume, go into every
home and business house in the
city in working up an interest
in the cause and in addition flags
and Red Cross banners we're sus
pended from every street corner
and public building.
Our people, to an individual,
are fast recognizing the fact that
Red Cross donations are not
charity in any sense of the term
but duty in the noblest form
and a privilege to be highly ap-

Wool Sells For $3.50.

Monday being Wool Day. quite
a bit Of activity was witnessed in
business circles. Several buyers
were on hand and some lively
bidding prevailed for awhile-in
fact something over sc being
bid in one instance, but the bid
der having no backing, it was
deemed best to accept the 65.55
bid, which came from a reliable
firm. All wool is to be delivered
on Monday, July 2, and from the
best calculations it is thought
there will be possibly $4,000 lbs.
on the market. This will mean
something in the neighborhood
of $4,000 turned loose in small
amounts among our farmers,
which, doubtless, will amount to
considerably more than this next
season.
