Taking Desperate Chances

1t is true that many contract severe
colds and recover from them without
taking any precaution or treatment
and knowledge of this fact leads
others to take their chances instead
of giving their colds the needed at
tention. 1t should be borne in mind
that every cold weakens the lungs,
lowers the vitality, makes the system
less able to withstand each succeed
ing attack and paves the way for the
more serious diseases. Can you af-
ford to take such desperate chanc ,s
when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
famous for it's cures of bad colds may
be had for Observation-Disclosures.

PUBLIC SPEAKING IN COUNTRY TOWNS

One fault with country schools the past has been that they
have not done enough to train young people public speaking
The lack OF ability to their thoughts foby and logic
ally in public has been why the country people have
not had due consideration legislative bodies and party politics.
Every high school in Worcester county should have reg
