sachem in the days Of William Penn,
IN exchange states. He was great
chief Of the Delaware Indians and
sold land to Penn. In the aboriginal
tongue his name means "the affable,"

PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventative measures. It is
easier and better to prevent than to
cure. Pneumonia, one of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with, often follows
cold or attack Of the grip The cold
prepares the system for the recep-
ton and development Of the pneu-
monia germ. The longer the cold
hangs on, the greater the danger. Take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon
as the first indication OF a cold APP
pears so as to get rid of it with the
least possible delay. It is folly to
risk an attack OF pneumonia when
this remedy may be obtained for a
trifle. For sale by A. G. Philipp.

South the Best Place

Reports made by state and federal
authorities show that there are about
1900, 900 unemployed workers in the
country. Conditions are most acute,
of course, in and around the larger
cities.
Hundreds Of thousands of men walk
the streets of the cities and towns of
New England and the Middle West
in search of employment.
But there are more than 100, OOO,-
600 persons in this country. TIA is
ployed men in almost every line of in
! dustry.
While the situation is bad, it is
not necessarily alarming.
There is work, of some kind, in
this country for everybody. The wages
may not be all that one might de-
sire, nor the work of the most at
tractive kind, but work can be had
at wage that will mean living.
There are millions of acres of idle
land There are thousands of abah-
doned farms, and thousands of other
farms in need of more help.
There has never been any starva-
tion in this country, nor any general
distress because of lack of sufficient
food. and theer will not be any.
All these idle people will soon find
wrk, perhaps at lower wages, but
they will get work and they will
live.
It is gratifying to note that in all
the business and Industrial depres-
sion, the South is faring better than
any cher section of the country. All
the reports show that there is little
or no enforced idleness anywhere in
the South.
The South is the best place in the
world today.

Your Home Town, and
You

The Kiwanis Clubs, of which there
are a good many in the country now,
have as their motto: "a town. that
is good enough to live in is good
enough to boost. y
This is a good motto for anybody
to use, and as there is no copyright
on it we might all adopt it with profit
to ourselves and for the general good.
And why should not a man speak
we'll of the town in which he lives?
If he cannot speak we'll of it, why
should he live in it?
There is bird that befouls it's own
nest, but it is the lowest Of all the
feathered tribes. 1t is held in abhor-
renee by all other birds that fly.
And most men, even if they try to
conceal the fact, despise the man who
knocks his home town. They know
that the real trouble is not so much
with the town as with the man him.
self.
Boosting your town may not make
your neighbors boost you, but it will
at@any rate keep them from knocking
you. And when your neighbors get
down on you, you had just as well
move. =.
