About Rheumatism.

Rheumatism causes more pain
and suffering than any other dis
eaSe,fOr the reason that it is the
most common of all ills,and it is
certainly gratifying to sufferers
to know that there is a remedy
that will afford relief, and make
rest and sleep possible. 1t is
called Chamberlain'S Liniment.

once for the reectiOn OF new
building. A committee was ap-
pointed. The members OF the
committee are, Mr.. Weichert'
Mrs. Godfrey, Mrs. Martin, Mrs
Gray and Mrs. ArceneauX. ms
committee will soon find out the
necessary steps to be taken and
advise us accordingly. With two
or three more of our leading busl-
ness men placed on the commit,
tee there is no doubt in my mind
but hiatt the election will be call
ed at once and bonds voted for
the erection of a modern up-to-
date brick building.
Lake Charles recently issued
bonds amounting to $2OO,OOO.OO
for the erection of two or more
school buildings for negro edu-
cation. Can we not afford to
spend S75,OO0.0O for education OF
our children?
We are prepared now to seat
comfortably so pupils in the
high school department. Next
wear we expect to enroll 70 pupils
in the high school. Someone tell
me where the other 20 pupils will
sit during the study periods. dc
you advise having some OF the
pupils stand while the others en-

seat happens to be vacant? Their

Cause of Headache.

By knowing the cause, disease
may often be avoided. This is
particularly true of headache.
The most common cause of head
ache is disordered stomach or
constipation, which may be cor
rected by taking a few doses OF
Chamberlain's Tablets. Try it,
Many others have obtained per-
manent relief by taking these
Tablets. They are easy to take
and mild and gentle in effect. AID

Joy over the homecoming OF

Do You Enjoy Life?

A man in good physical con-
dition is almost certain 10 enjoy
life, while the bilious and des-
pondent, do not enjoy their meals
and feel miserable a good share of
the time. This feeling is nearly
always unnecessary. A few dos
es of Chamberlain's Tablets to
tone up the stomach, improve the
digestion and regulate the bowels
is all that is needed. Try it.
