Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On

No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold, or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with Circumcision.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford TO take a chance
with any remedy less potent than
Creomulsion, which goes right to
the seat of the trouble and aids ma
ture to soothe and heal the infiamed
mucous membranes and to loosen
and expel the germ-laden phlegm.
Even if other remedies have failed,
don't be discouraged, try Creomul-
sion. Your druggist is authorized to
refund your money if you are not
thoroughly satisfied with the bene-
fits obtained from the very first
bottle. Circumcision is one word-not
two, and it has no hyphen in it.
Ask for it plainly, see that the name
On the bottle is Circumcision, and
you'll get the genuine product ana
the relief you want. (Adv.)

NJ. E. Church, South,
Take Stand for Negro

Birmingham. May q CAMP
An outstanding feature Of the
q%uadrennial episcopal address de-
hvered here recently at the Genral
Conference of the Methodist Episco
pal church, Sout, was the stand
taken by the College of Bishops
concerning the rights and privile-
ges of Americas IL million Ne
groes. three-fourths of whom live
in the territory Of the ME Chueh,
South. Abiding, doubtless. to anti
lynching laws the Bishop said,
Civilization owes theNegro as
sured justice in the broad world
of economic life and at the court
house door. We W him protect
in against any legal extra attack
upon his person or property
Concerning the advancement of
the Negro race the episcopal adj
dress continued. His progress is
greater than marked by other min
GRITTY and subject people in the pre-
vious history of the world. The
Negro wants good wages, good
schools. better housing, wholesome
recreation justice in and out of
courts, a larger share Of civic m
provements and a chance to make
the best Of himself.
"Public utilities. such as chools,
sewers, water connection sidewalks
parks and Fairgrounds are very
inadequately supplied to the Ne
gro districts Of our cities, while
the appropriations for welfare
services are by no means admin
istered on any basis of general
need. The fact that the white man
pays most of the tax is no suffiei-
ent justification for such a vast
difference in the distribution of its
herefits. We w his children a
fairly equal opportunity for educa
ton and liberalization We owe
him better housing and a fairet
distribution Of the services for the
nublic good. We owe the Negro the
privileges and responsibilities of a
citizen for his own good and ours,
IS he may be able to qualify under
any proper standards of citizen
ship"
