Governor for Red Cross Work.

Governor Beckett took a hand in
furthering the movement by the To-
bacco Association Of the United
States, headquarters at Richmond, Va,
looking to the inducement of every
tobacco gro wer to contribute to the
Red Cross fund for war relief, the
proceeds of the sale of n pile of leaf
tobacco sold on the warehouse floor.
The governor wrote personal letters
to each of the designed leaders in this
movement in the various tobacco grow
ing sections of the state endorsing
most heartily the plan of the Tobacco
Association of the United States, as
promulgated by President T. M. Car
rington, Richmond. Va, and express
ing the hope that the North Carolina
will do their full share in the success
full carrying out of the movement.
In his letter to the committeeman,
Governor Beckett after speaking Of
the resolution recently adotped en-
bracing the plans says:
81 desire to commend most heartily
this resolution, also the plan outlined
by the Tobacco Association by which
it is hoped that thousands of dollars
will be raised for this worthy cause.
to this cause your wholehearted and
enthusiastic cooperation. l am sure,
if you will do this, you can make it
| count for much in your section Of the
state"

Physicians Under Thirty-two Drafted.
Physicians under thirty-two years
of age are amenable to the draft for
soldiers, according to information re-
ceived from the War DEPARTMENT at
Washiniton. AS the law now stands
every physician who is physically fit
and under thirty-two years of age is a
drafted man whether his name has
been called or not.
The need of young physicians in the
army is imperative. Major Joseph c.
Bloodgood, chairman of the Southern
Committee on National Defense, says:
Every physically fit doctor thirty-one
years old owes it to his country to be
in the Medical Reserve Corps. AS a
matter of fact, he is a drafted man
whether his number has been called
or not" The army calls for young
physicians for two reasons: they can
! stand the strain of army life better
than the older men, and, as a whole
they are lot held by so many family
and financial obligations.
DR.. J. W. Long, of Greensboro, chair
man of the State Committee on Ma
tional Defense, Medical Section, will
upon request furnish suitable blanks
for making application in the Medical
Officers Reserve Corps. North Caro-
lima has not yet given her quota
though she ranks ahead of the aver.
age state in the number of medical
men she has furnished the army.

Are Your Kidneys Sick?
Many CoIfax People Have Kept Well

Many Colfax People Have Kept Well
by Keeping Their Kidneys Well.
The first symptom of kidney trouble
may be only slight pain in the back,
a feeling of stiffness or soreness in the
loins, or some annoying irregularity of
the urinary passages. Urine is often
discolored and perhaps sediment gath
ers upon standing. Next may come
Gull, throbbing backache, sharp, knife
like pains, headaches, dizziness and in
many cases lameness when arising in
the morning. No one can afford to de-
lay until these troubles become serious.
Begin using Doan's Kidney Pills, the
tried and tested kidney remedy that
has won the praise Of thousands. Col
fax readers Should find convincing proof
of merit in the following statement.
It's from resident of this locality.
Clovis Daigle, 3O4 Railroad Ave-,
Plaqaemine, La, says: II was suf-
fering from my kidneys and back when
| began using Doan's Kidney Pills.
This medicine removed the trouble and
to this day l have been free from ali
signs of kidney complaint.
Price soc at all dealers. Don't simp-
ly ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan' S
Kidney Pills-the same Mr.. Daigle
recommends. Foster Milburn Compa-

CLIP THIS AND PIN
ON WIFE'S DRESSER
Cincinnati man tells how to shrivel
up corns or caliuses 90 they
lift of with fingers.

Ouch fif! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of q drug called freezone when applied
to tender, aching corn or hardened cal
lus stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn or callus dries up and lifts right
of without pain.
he says freezone dries Immediately
and never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone win cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or calIus from
ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the inauguration Of the high heels If
your druggist doesn't have freezone tell
him to order small bottle for you.

thirst for conquest been stronger or

The true idea Of life is to be happy
