Make the Idle Dollar Help the Idle Man

1t is true that there has not been in Pueblo such
period of hard times has been experienced by many
other cities and towns of the west. Upon tho whole
the city has remained prosperous 10 unusual de-
gree fully evidenced by statistics of various kinds
1t is also true that considerable number of in
dvdual in Pueblo there have been bitter exper
fences of loss of employment and of sudden changes
from time prosperity to shortage of comforts and
even of the necessaries of life.
1t is the unanimous opinion of those best able to
Judge of such matters that this condition of economic
distress, exceptional in Pueblo and general in many
other places is temporary stage of readjusmcnt
and that it will not continue long
There is, therefore, all the why the
people Of Pueblo who able to do so, should work
together to help the unfortunate and to bridge over
this time of distress.
There ought not to be any idle men in Pueblo at
the present time, and the best for making that
statement the fact that there enough things in
Pueblo that ought to be done keep every worker busy
1t to be presumed that every intelligent man and
woman IN the city wants to prosperity continued
thru the coming The best and surest way TO
continue prosperity is for everyone to do something
toward establishing the basis of prosperity which is
industrial activity.
| Setting idle dollar at work ISM going to helm
much, but it is going to help some, and when all the
idle dollars get busy together they going TO make
the very best kind of insurance policy against hard
times.

BETTER Than CALOMEL

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub

More business in government implies greater econ

will be fewer dollars SPENT and it also that

of the United States should be used for the purpose
protecting and promoting the rights and the interests
