indeed disappointed in the methods
used by the so-called shooters; the
situation was unquestionably one that
needs correction. On the main street
of our city, children and grown-ups
as we'll, deliberately threw firecrack-
ers at the feet of shoppers and pass
ers-by. I have heard, and my infor-
nation is only hearsay, that as a re-
suit of a firecracker thrown at the
feet of a certain lady, she suffered a
heart attack and later died.
Now, I believe the celebration can
be carried out sanely, but if we have
re-occurrence of this past fire-crack
er episode, I feel the only solution
will be the passing of an ordinance
prohibiting the use of fire-crackers
or the like within the city limits. I
trust this will not be necessary and
that future holidays are celebrated
more wisely.

Bronchial Coughs
Need Creomulsiorl

Just common cough, chest cold,
or bronchial irritation of today may
lead to serious trouble tomorrow. They
may be relieved now with CreomulSion,
an emulsified Creosote that is pleasant
to take. CreomulSion is medicinal
combination designed to aid nature in
soothing and healing infected mucous
membranes by allaying irritation and in
and expelling the germ-laden phlegm.
The Medical Profession has for many
years recognized the beneficial effect of
Beechwood Creosote in the treatment
of coughs, chest colds, and bronchial
irritationS. A special process was worked
out by chemist, for blending CreoSote
with other ingredients and now in
Circumcision you get q real dose of

palatable and can even be taken fire.
quently and continuously by both
adults and children.
Creomulsion is one preparation that
goes to the very seat of the trouble to
help loosen and expel the germ-laden
phlegm. When coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles due to common colds
hang on, get bottle of Creomulsion
from your druggist, use it as directed,
and If you are not satisfied with the re-
lief obtained, the druggist is authorized
to refund every cent of your money.
CreomulSion is one word-not two, and
it has no hyphen in it. Ask for it plain
ly, see that the name on the bottle is
Creomulsion. and you'll get the genuine
product and the relief thatyouwant. ADV

My dear Editor !
The Christmas celebration is over
and I know I am one of many who
feel somewhat relieved, knowing I can
walk safely down the street without
having fire-cracker tossed on my
clothing or about my feet.
It has been an American custom for
years to display fire-crackers at this
season and for one have no objection
to the shooting of fireworks, provid-
ed of course, that they are in proper
hands and are discharged in proper
manner at a proper time and at a
proper place.
However, this past Christmas I was

spect for some Of the people as
sociated with him, for we know
them well. We recall that his
chief counsel, A. A. Madison, was
not long ago a postal clerk who
studied law at night and was ad-
mitted to the bar long after he
was a man. We have had business
dealings with some of the white
people of the organization, and
have found them uniformly men of
their word, who stick to what
thew say, and on whom you can
depend to carry out their stipula-
tions.
AS to the essential value Of the
Divine teachings, we know abso-
lutely nothing. not having taken
them seriously enough to investi-
gate them. We prefer the ortho-
dox religious, or brands of re-
ligion, as we know them, in the
established churches, so that the
philosophy of the cult is OF no
interest to us now, nor do we
think it will be. But as a Negro
leader, we feel Divine should be
given the respect due his station,
and to that extent we will sup
port him or any other individual
who demonstrates his power to
lead. Until Divine does something
for which the law can restrain
him, without deliberately going
out to get" him, because some
one doesn't like him, we say let
him alone.

DAINTTNEsS

No woman who aspires to be
beautiful can afford to dispense
with daintiness. And one Of the
greatest handicaps to acquiring
this charm is the one placed by
clothing. It should be a duty, reli-
giously performed, to air ones
clothing daily. Especially woolen
clothing, as odors cling to them.
So If you would leave behind you
that faint sweet breath Of the
pines and green woods, remember
to air your clothes daily.
