How Diphtheria is Contracted

One often hears the expression,
MY child caught a severe cold
which developed into diphtheria, "
when the truth was that the cold
had simply left the little one par
ticularly susceptible to the wan
dering diphtheria germ. If your
child has cold when diphtheria
is prevalent you should take him
out of school and keep him off the
streets until fully recovered, as
there is a hundred times more
danger of his taking diphtheria
when he has a cold. When Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is given
it quickly cures the cold and les
sens the danger of diphtheria or
any other germ disease being con-
tracted. apr

such an Office and left it with
better record. He has proven
terror to evil doors OF every sort.
He knows them and their game,

would certainly rid that county Of
all who cause trouble by making
or selling whisky or otherwise.
His long experience will admirab-
ly fit him to serve the people OF
his home county we'll and truly.

these ten there will be blank lines on

have an opportunity of voting for
whomsoever he may see fit by writ
ing in the name of his choice, provid-
ing it is not on the ballot.
The ballots will be mailed from

directors selected by the delegates
throughout the entire state who will

Montgomery county signing the
highest percentage of any of the
counties. 1t will be noted in the Sc

delegates that they comprise the
