Chronic coughs and persistent colds

them now with Creomulsion, an emul-
sified creosote that is pleasant to take.
Creomulsion is a new medical discov-
cry with twofold action; 1t soothes and

kills the germ.
OF all known drugs, creosote Is rec
ognized by the medical fraternity as
the greatest healing agency for the
treatment of chronic coughs and colds
and other forms of throat troubles.
Croemulsion contains, in addition to
creosote, other healing elements which
soothe and heal the iniamed mem
branes and stop the irritation and in
fiammation. while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, Is absorbed into the
blood, attacks the seat of trouble and
destroys the germs that lead to serious
complications.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac

Epietetus, the Greek slave whose
teachings were all that his master
could wish, had no yearning for in
dependence himself, and could not see
why 1t should be crayed by others. He
said:
IF you We're born in Persia, you
would not endeavor to live in Greece,
but to be happy III the place where
you were. Why then, if you were born
in poverty, do you yearn to be rich,
and not rather happy in the condition

And again: IF therefore you ae-

Beautiful doctrine, which If faith
fully practiced, would have held back
the world for centuries.
1t is the desire for independence,
the desire for better conditions that
has brought the human race out of
slavery.
Great riches do not bring happiness.
1t is true. But there can be no happi-
ness without degree of independence,
and the man who is contented with
who and what he is, will never be In

The poets and philosophers who

writing to the United States Bureau
of Education, Department of the In
terror, Washington, d. c., asking for
information about the consolidation
of rural schools, makes this comment:
"Our farmers think the courses Of

rural districts have consolidated with
the small town and the larger town
and too often these farmers find that
the policy of the school is entirely in
