in Your bowels!

Poisons absorbed into the system from
souring waste in the bowels, cause that
headachy, sluggish, bilious condition:
coat the tongue; foul the breath; sap
energy, strength and nerve-force, A little
of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin will clear
up trouble like that, gently, harmlessly,
in hurry. The difference it will make
in your feelings over night will prove
its merit to you.
DR.. Caldwell studied constipation for
forty-seven years. This long experience
enabled him to make his prescription
just what men, women, old people and
children need to make their bowels help
themselves. It's natural, mild, thorough
action and its pleasant taste commend
it to people of all ages. That's why
"Dr. Caldwell'S Syrup PepSin," as it is

Thanksgiving

THANKSGIVING Day has become such a universally
observed national holiday that few people realize That
its general observance on the last lhursday IN NO
veber is quite recent development All of the states
Of New England and some OF the other northern
states had an annual day OF thanksgiving by the pro
clamation of the Governor, but while this custom
came from the earliest colonial times, IL seloom nap
pened that more than two three states picked the
same day. r
The real "nother of Thanksgiving Day. was Mrs.
Sarah Joseph Hale who was the editor of the first
magazine published especially for women, Godeys
Ladys Book Mrs Hale before 1850, tried to get the
President of the United States to issue proclamation
for national Thanksgiving Day. Mrs Ruth p. Fin
lev in her new book, "The Lady OF Godeys tells
how she bo1nbarded president after president with
her demand until in 1863 President Lincoln issued
the first national thanksgiving proclamation, nam
ING the last Thursday in November it's date. From
that time every President has issued such pro-
clanaton and since the 1905 the Governor Of every
state has also proclaimed the last Thursday in No
venber as Thanksgiving Day. Since there has never
been an act Of Congress on the subject Thanksgiving
Day is not technically national holiday but it would
be diffuct to keep the people OF any state from OBJ
serving it, even if the Governor forgot to issue his
proclamation
In recent years there has been tendency to take
Thanksgiving Day lightly. We are all too much IN
clined in good times, to take credit to ourselves Tor
our blessings whatever they may be. while In times
what have got to be thankful fOr! We hear lots
of people asking that question this year, but in our
opinion Of the best for pessiism to stop
thinking Of your hard luck and try for day to
think Of all the good things that have come your way
since last Thanksgiving.
There is, perhaps, small consolation in that for
people who have lost their faith in spiritual things
But we believe that the great majority of Americans,
by whatever name they may call their religious creeds
still believe that there is Divine Providence which
has guided and still will guide our nation, and when
we consider the state of most of the people OF the
rest of the world we feel that there is ample ground
for National Thanksgiving Day.

POOR KINGS
By TVilHom II. Diaries

Gods pity on poor kings,
They know no gentle rest;
The North and South cry out,
Cries come from East and West
"Comc, open this new Deck,
Building, Bazaar or Fair"
Lord, what wretched life
Such men must bear.
They're followed, watched and spied,
No liberty they know;
Some eye will watch them still,
No matter where they go.
When in green lanes / muse,
Alone, and hear birds sing,
Gods pity then, say /,
On some poor king.

The commissions orders limiting

many weeks. Production in East
Texas reached almost 400. 900 barrels
daily and the unchecked flow there

collapse Of the oil price structure
Oil, which once sold for 81 and So a
barrel. dropped to ten and Is cents
The governor will ask the legisla-
ture to enact laws strengthening the
power OF the oil regulatory commits
sion. He also planned TO ask for a
new commission TO deal with the
subject and to handle the conserva-
ton Of soil and water as well as OF
oil and gas. He had said the rail-
road commission had too many other
duties.
Governor Sterling mentioned no
subject other than conservation OF
natural resources In his call. How
ever, II was considered certain he
would submit congressional redist-
