D MAYO AGAIN.

"EX-Judge Mayo of Chicago" who
claimed to be here from Gary, Ind,
selling lots, raised $1,000 at Shiloh
Baptist church on a recent Monday
evening, it is said. On the following
afternoon he appeared at the church
and vas paid that amount for lots.
The next day, Wednesday, in the af,
ternoon, when he appeared again at
the church, as requested, he was ar.
rested and released on a $4,000 bail
bond furnished from Chicago, after
being compelled by federal authori,
ties to deposit $3.50 of the s 1000 in a
local bank, it is said. This amount
was to be returned to the would-be
lot buyers, Wednesday of this week,
so we wer informed by an officer nj
the church. The $3.50 balance, il
seems, is to be lost. The sufferers
also paid an attorney $50, which
makes their total loss $300.-Detroit

Restow Praise Generously.

Let us not be niggardly with a word
of praise or encouragement as far as
our W lear ones are concerned. The
world will offer them nelther-in fact,
1t cares absolutely nothing about them.
Therefore, if we hope to bring out
what is worth while in our children, or
If we would make them truly happy,
we must become their stanch allies.
Otherwise, we are playing a losing
game and can only look for defeat.

Weak Nerves Fairly Tingle With
New Energy and Life

Be strong and full of spirit at
middle age, or past. Be ambitious to
meet the joys or demands of life with
steady steel-like nerves. Don't
wither away like a shriveled up old
rabbit. Get flesh on your bones -
vitality in your body, and cheerful
winning thoughts IN your brain.
Margo Nerve Tablets put men and
women at their best use them to
dispel gloom, brainfag, and peevish-
ness and revitalize weak, over
wrought nerves. With your old
nerve-vigor revived. you get a new
lease on life. You feel so much
better that you join in the social
high jinks" and nobody realizes
you're growing old.
Margo Nerve Tablets have direct
and specific action. They go right
at weak nerves and quickly set
them right. You feel their good work
right away.
