 How It Works
 The "community pig" can be made not only patriotic but a paying prop osition. according to Mrs. Steward. Those who buy PIglette Bonds will get their money back with interest. Here is how they are going to work it. After the state and county chairmen of the Woman's National Farm and Garden Association have appointed town and village chairmen, the latter will start the pig campaign.

POWERFUL PILE
 REMEDY DISCOVERED
Has Never Failed to End Most ObstA-
 nate Case of Piles fin Few Days.

For years it has been proved that so- called external remedies applied to or inserted in the rectum cannot cure piles. and at the best can only give temporary relief. Surgical opera tions also do not remove this cause, but sim ply the formation.
 This wonderful prescription. known as Miro Pile Remedy, is so efficient in the treatment of piles that even chronic cases of from 20 to 50 years standing with profuse bleeding have been com pletely cured in from three to ten days. Think of it. Just a few doses of carefully balanced prescription and the most persistent cease of piles is ab sorbed, never to return.
 Lee & Osgood Go. dispense Miro. or can get it for you short notice. Surely it's worth the little trouble to obtain it to be rid of piles forever.
 IMPORTANT-What is known as itching piles are not piles in the true sense of the word, although this condi- ton may accompany a true case of piles For this condition Miro Pile Ointment has been prepared, as ir such cases it is not necessary to take the internal prescription.

The Herald realizes that the new
governor will be swamped with ad-
vice. Nevertheless there is one bit
that we desire to drop. 1t is to go
slow on the proclamation" racket.
Ia our OPINION Gov. Bilbo has been
entirely too quick about making Gu
bernatorial proclamations. We re-
alize that we have passed through
momentous times during his admin
istration and had not the war came
there we're many movements of pro-
gress which at times knocked at the
Governor door and asked for spe-
cial procIamations in their particular
interests, and some OF these could
not be galnsayed, but too frequent
an indulgence in the Governors pre-
negative of making proclamations
lowers the tone of them and causes
the people to pass them by with less
seriousness than If the right was
seldom and then only seriously in
voked. So we assert that Russell
can profit by this and by keeping
the breaks on, assist in having MIS-
sissippians think that something is
always OF serious importance when
they see that title PROCLAMATION
signed up by her governor. We say
this in no spirit of unkindness or
fault-finding at Gov. Bilbo but in the
interest OF the future.
