Community. Man as a social animal
has a duty, not only to himself, but
aase tO his neighbors. The business

munity has a similar duty to the pub

Public Warned to Beware of a
Three Days Cough and Break

Money Refunded If KurOkoI

Leading authorities are using every
effort to arouse the public to the dan
ger of letting comomn colds just run
their course, for it is definitely known
that many serious lung complications
such as pneumonia, grippe, ETC., de-
veloped from colds that hang on per.
~sistently.
Colds are durable and preventablet
and Kurokol provides the safest
surest and quickest, as we'll as the
most practical, treatment for colds
yet discovered.
Kurokl is almost magical in its ef'
feet. The first dose usually stops the
tendency to sneezing and coughing
and relieves the feeling of discomfort
and the second and third doses us
ually suffice to stop the progress Of
a cold altogether.
The wonderful efficiency of Kur'
okol is best shown by the fact that
all druggists are instructed to refund
money where where it fails to give
satisfactory results.

COUNTY
FAIR FOR
AUDRA|N

Mexico ought to, can and will
have a county fair if about 400 peo-
pie in Mexico and Audrain County
will take one share each not exceed
ing 800 per share. Mostly farmers
should take these shares with every
travelling man in or out Of Mexico.
The grounds should be located so
that they could be used for other
purposes as well as for a fair. Think
it over. Act now. Don't wait until
July and then try to have a fair in
August.
Several have offered to buy as
many as ten shares, but no one man
can have more than one share.
Nothing helps bring money into
Audrain County more than live stock
and county fairs and bring buyers
for good stock.

THE important thing in raising

ATTORNEY General Barrett in a
most interesting address recently to
the newspapermen of Missouri stated
that a newspaper had no right to jest
about law enforcement. That it was
a papers duty to consider law en-
forcement seriously and impress the
public with the fact that law and the
constitution were not matters to jest
about but were to be upheld by every
law abiding person. His statement is
one which every publisher and every
citizen should consider seriously,
Nothing undermines the welfare OF
the nation as does making its laws OF
constitution a matter of jest. Good
A~mericanism considers such matters
too sacred for jesting.

IN the death of Nellie BLY, the
newspaper fraternity loses one Of its
most interesting women writers.
She made the trip around the world
in 72 days when such speed was a
marvel. Her death recalls to the
editor of the Ledger the fact that
some twenty-five years ago this
paper exposed q so-called magnetic
stage performer who claimed super
natural powers. Following a threat
from the management of "the little
Georgia Magnet" to sue us Miss BLY,
wired the Ledger from New York
stating that she had exposed the
same person and that il the matter
ever came to trial she would be glad
TO come and testify in behalf of the
Ledger. Along this line is is inter
esting to note that because OF the
Ledger's expose of this and similar
takers Mexico no longer is a light
ing" place for the travelling clair
voyant, spirit medium and fake
Faith Healer. When Sgd Houston
now managing editor of the Stars &
Stripes, in Washington, was on the
Ledger staff, he wrote up a treat

faith healer which resulted in thu
later leaving the community follow
ing the great laugh the story pro
voked. A clairvoyant, once visited
Mexico and when the Ledger discov

THE scarcity of houses in Mexico
has again been called to u attention
by the large number Of calls at this
office for houses to rent or buy.
Eviently Mexico continues to grow
and its development is halted only by
the lack of housing facilities. Re-
Gently our attention was called to the
fact that "Mexico is a good place to
live" by the head of a local industrial
plant who stated that the big induce
ment which brought his establish
ment to Mexico was not so much
what was offered as the fact that
Mexico was a city of good schools and
churches with a citizenship of refine
ment and progressive spirit. Let us
build more homes in Mexico and help
the city progress as It should.

PEOPLE talk so much about the
Boy and Girl Problem. It really
isn't quite the problem some seem to
think it is. Did you ever notice that
those parents who take an interest
in their children treat them as COM
panions but maintain the proper
feeling of parental respect seldom If
ever have any serious trouble with
their little folks. The Boy and Cir
problem starts in the home and can
be ended there provided the parents
do their part.
