HOW'S YOUR BLOOD !?
Pimples and Eruptions
Mean Bad Blood

People who have impure or impover-
ished blood should be careful to take
only a temperance remedy made of
wild roots and banks, such as Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
and has been for nearly 90 years.
Ingredients printed on wrapper.
The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accommodations begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through
the eliminative organs.
In place of the impurities, the ar
teries and veins gradually get fresh
vitalized blood and the action of this
good blood on the skin means that
pimples, boils, carhuncles, eczema,
rash, acne and many skin blemishes
will disappear. Then you must re-
member that when die blood is right,
the liver, stomach, bowels and kidneys
become healthy, active and vigorous
and you will have no more trouble
with indigestion, backache, headache.
Get Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery to-day at any medicine deal
ers, in tablet or liquid form, or send
10c. for trial package to DR.. Pierce's
Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. I.

so sick at my stomach that l could not
do my work. 1t would make me dizzy,
and | would have to sit down and wait

Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which l did. and l must say that it
cured me. I have not felt any OF this
trouble ever since. I would recommend
this remedy " It'll all faith to all who

Way Here From Factory.
A new Passenger car that be-
longed to the Dawson Buick Co was
stolen at Cincinnati, Ohio, while en-

machines from the factory at Flint,
Mich.
Ten days ago Mr.. T. K. Cobb, of
the Dawson Buick Co., accompanied
by Messrs. Carl Warner, Rogers
Laing, Bob Harden, Howard Arnold
and Lee Newton, went to Michigan
to drive the machines to Dawson. On
reaching Cincinnati the roads were so
bad they decided to abandon that
method of travel and the automobiles
were stored in a garage for shipment
to Dawson. Before the lot could
be gotten ready to be freighted,
however, a thief got one of them.
The car was insured.
The Dawson party reached home
Sunday morning.

He viii bark back to the days of hundred and
foryfour years ago. to an historical document which
declared
hat these United Colonies are, and Of right ought
be- Free and Independent States and that as Free
and Independent States they have full power Ito levy
war, conclude peace contract alliances, establish com
crce and to do all other acts and things which indie
pendent states may Of right do"
Those words occurred in q document known as the
Declaration Of Independence to the maintenance Of
which the sgners pledged their lives their fortunes and
their sacred honor and which their descendants today
have no mind to abrogate or to repudiate.
Since thus to ''hark back" to be the order Of
the day it may not be inappropriate to suggest that
Governor Cox himself might do well to bark back to
still more ancient date than any of these, to Code
which says "Thou shalt not bear false witness aganet
thy neghbor' and to inquire Of the practical managers
Of his campaign how much longer they purpose to let
the forgery Of San francisco stand in the leading item
Of their platform. -Harvey's Weekly.

"HARKINC BACK"

Governor Cox affects to be much concerned at what
he regards as announcement that Senator Harding
purposes To bark back to the days Of thirty years ago.
His apprehensons are, Judge, only too well founded
wherefore would alphabetically exhort him to cheer
up, for the worst is yet to come.
We venture to say that Senator Harding purposes
bark back even more, good deal more, than thirty
years He will bark back about ffty-seven years, to
the principle of government of the people, by the people,
for the people, principle enunciated by Abraham
Lincoln who was reviled and denounced by Governor
Cox's fellow-partisans than Theodore Roosevelt
and Henry Cabot Lodge and Warren G. Harding all
put together have been.
He win do more than that He will bark back to the
days Of ninety-seven years ago. to the principle that n
the wars OF the European Powers in matters relating
to themselves we have taken any part nor does
1t comport with our policy to do so principle
lated by James Monroe whom degenerate democrats
of today seem to wish to repudatc and to forget.
He will bark back to- the days of hundred and nine
teen years ago. to tho principle Of peace, commerce,
and honest friendship with all nations entanglng a-
with none;" principle proclaimed by one Thomas
jefferson, whom democrats today claim as the founder
of their party while they depart from and deny the
wisest of his national policies.
He will bark back we have no doubt, to the days Of
hundred and twenty-fo years ago. to an utterance
which ran in this fashion
1.-THE great rule of conduct for in regard to for
egn nations. is in extending commercial relations
to have with them little political connection as pos
sble. IT'S our true policy to steer clear of per.
manent alliances with any portion of the foreign world
That uttcrance, we remind Governor Cox, was made
by one George Washington whose patriotic sagacity
still highly esteemed by many American citizens despite
the efforts of the League covenanters to beittle it.

OF becoming chairman in the event of change of admin
istraon this year, Congressman Sam R. Sells has been
and is in position to render this District and East Ten

expenditure Of $4O0O000Oo covering period of four
yorrs recommends him representative particularly

way building is just in its infancy in this region and in
need Of strong advocate to push it aong Tennessee
will receive under this appropriation approximately ST.
100000 from the Federal Government.
Mr. Sells served years in Congress before he gained
prominence just as any other man must do before he is
elected chairman Of important commistees by his col
leagues. All the empty and foolish boasngs and claims
Of youthful tyro cannot deceive people in this respect

appeals they listen to the of office seekers be-
