I , .tV-THE ROXBORO, COURIES.Tehruary 28.-1917. V -v ' -.y,' ',-,, U ,1 PAGE TWO 2C 31 r 11 is Simple La A Household Necssit Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Should Have a Place in Every Home Constipation,' or inaction of the bowels, a condition that nearly every one experiences with more or less frequency, is the direct cause of much disease. When the bowels be come clogged with refuse from the stomach, foul gases and poisons are generated and unless the congestion is quickly relieved the system be comes weakened and most suspec tible to attack. Various remedies to relieve con stipation are prescribed, but many of these contain cathartic or purga tive agents that are harsh and vio lent in their action and shock the system. The most effective remedy is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that is sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. The Hon. John D. Keister of Bran dywine, W. Va., who has represent ed his 'district in the state legisla ture for six years, writes that he uses Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and finds it a splendid laxative, easy to take and mild, yet positive, in its action, and that it should be in every household v for use when needed. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists in all parts of the United States and costs only fifty THE PROHIBITION JO&ER The "bone-dry" liquor "joker", which Senator Reed slipped into the appropriation bill, will meet the ap proval of the prohibition forces in the country, and in receiving that commendation will prove a boomer ang if it was put into the bill m the hope of making the dry states so dry that the very dryness would cre ate wet sentiment. The trend of pno h"ibition sentiment during the last few years has been the real variety of the article. The provision, we be lieve, will meet with the approval of the better element in North Caro lina. The significant thing about pro- hibition is that, as a rule, it sticks, ; once it is tried. There is little rea- j son for belief that North Carolina j will ever slip back into the wet col-j umn, for while the present session of j the legislature has refused to pass ; the most recent of the prohibition j measures, that failure was due rather; to objections to cert? in features of the bill rather than to a development of wet sentiment in the str.te. There is a general agreement that prohibi tion has helped not only North Caro lina, but ever'y"state which harj tri ed it. The sum of money which the li quor business represented in this state at the time it voted dry was considerable, but the breaking up of the saloon business has causer no general commercial orindustrial ca lamity. No man who has tried booze and stopped it stands up and makes a plea for John Barleycorn. Once he is free of the effects of the poi son a man knows he is better off without it. The same principle ap plies to a county, a city, and even a state. So we do not believe the strictest kind of enforcement of the newest addition to the prohibition laws is going to create wet sentiment. Rath er it will have the other tendency. Durham Herald.

Germany's unrestricted subir .-in warfare has now been in progress for nearly three weeks and has made no serious impression on the result of the war.

London, Feb. 23.' David ' Lloyd- George, the ' British prime, minister today presented to tne nouse of com mons his program for coping 'with the problem of shortage of shipping space. The speech was a serious and grave effort, the premier emphasiz ing the serious situation with which the nation is faced owing to the shortage of food stocks and the German submarine menace. ' The premier's program for dealing with the situation was under two 'heads the first to increase home food production and the second the curtailment of non-victual imports. Under the first head Mr. Lloyd George outlined a scheme for speed ing up the farmer b guaranteeing him good prices for his commodi ties, over a period of years, thus in viting him to plow" and sow every inch of available land. This he sup plemented by the announcement that the landowner would be actually fore ed to cultivate his land. Under the head of curtailment of imports, Mr. Lloyd-George said, he expected to reduce the demands on cargo space by several million tons. Foodstuffs of which 16,000,000 tons were imported last year will be 'cut down nearly a million tons by lopping off certain luxuries. Paper users who already have been considerably cur tailed must henceforth get along with only half the supply they are now re ceiving thus saving 640,000 tons. Certain savings also will be effected in the imports of ore which now amounts to 8,000,000 tons annually and in lumber which at present is 4,000,000 tons. The Official Gazette tonight gives a list of articles the importation of which i3 prohibited. The decree ta kes effect today. The list includes agricultural ma chinery, boots and shoes of leather, raw fruits, except lemons and orang es; hides, leather, gloves, glass manu factures, linen yarns and manufact ures thereof; canned lobsters' itfld salmon manufactured silks and skins, furs, food articles, containing sugar, except condensed milk; ' tomatoes typewriters, wine of all kinds, wood ?.nd timber.

Why suffer from a bad back, from sharp shooting twinges, headaches, dizziness and destressing urinary ills ? Roxboro people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. Gduld. you ask for stronger proof of merit?

It can't salivate, so let them eat anything afterwards THE FOOD RIOTS While the food riots in New York and Philadelphia are local in their nature they are the most substan tial protest the poor class have made against the constantly mounting cost of living. The increasing prices, while they are to a certain extent due to economic causes, present prob lems the government had just as well make up their mind to meet. The people of the country will not endure indefinitely the ever increasing cost of the necessities of life, nor are they going to stop to reason it out that the soaring prices of bread is the result s of the natural laws of demand and supply. The idea is fixed in the minds of the mob, which does not reason things out, that the high prices for food are the result of speculative ma nipulations, and that some one is getting immensely rich out of its starvation. That may not be so, on the whole but the idea is there and argument will not change it. v The food riots indicate the direc tion of the wind. There is a short age of food in the world today, a shortage that is going to mean that many people will have to do without a part of what they have been ac customed to. Toijay the American farmer has a patriotic duty to perform just,as se riously needed and just as important as responding to the call to arms in time of war. That duty is to plant food crops. There is such a shortage of wheat, corn, potatoes and other fundamentals of our food supply, that there is little danger of the farmer flooding the market with any of vthe staples of life. The prices will continue good for the farmer. Some means should also be found whereby the people whb consume can .ret the food at somewhere near the price the farmer gets for his pro ducts. The profit of the middlemen will have to be greatly cut if not eliminated entirely thru governtal agencies. Durham Herald.

Yo der, Catawba County's infallible weather Bureau, the man who fore casted the terrific February freeze, basing his prophecy on the fact that the full moon would come when the sign of the zodiac was in the crawfish now tells the people to look out -for March 3rd to 8th; that the moon will be frll at that time and the days nameh are all in the slburbs of the crawfish sign. Rains and storms may now be expected if the weather be mild; snow or sleet and much ice if the wind should change from warm to chilly. Colonel Yoder is also the county historian and tells of one of the Ca tawba pioneers, nota Dutchman this time, but an Irishman, who made him some brandy one Summer and com posing himself near the keg refused to leave it. ; Like Ephriam, he was joined to it While he snoozed, how ever, his children took the keg and with a rope drew it to. the comb of the barn roof, thinking the old, man couldn't reach it. He cQuldn't, but solved the problem by shooting a hole in the keg with his rifle and lioWing a bucket under it to catch the apple-jack, whereupon toe pro ceeded to get drunk some rnore. j - i .

I used 2917 bags of ZELUS SPECIAL COMPOUND FOR TOBACCO on my farms last year and so far have sold about $60,000.00 worth of tobacco grown over it at prices which are highly pleasing. ZELL'S starts tobacco nicely and ripens it uniformly, producing a rich, waxy leaf which weighs well and brings .the money. I will cer tainly use ZELUS again this year. J. M. GALLAWAY. Roxboro, N. C. January, 31, 1917". I have been using Zell's Tobacco Fertilizers for eight years and have never seen anything to beat them yet. I averaged $42.00 for my crop , of tobacco grown over ZELL'S this year on the Roxboro Market. ' i ZELL'S makes rich, silky, bright wrappers which always weigh well. I had rather cure after" Zell's than any other fertilizer on the market., I expect to use Zell's again this year because all my people are pleased with it. Yours truly, WELDON G. CLAYTON Mebane, N. C. January 27th, 1917. I used Zell's Special Compound for Tobacco 8-2-2 last year and made 8326 lbs. of tobacco that brought me $2791.21. I will use Zell's this year and reccommend it highly. ZELL'S starts tobacco nicely, grows it smoothly and yellows it well, -Tobacco grown over Zell's always brings aood price. Very truly yours, W. MARSHALL WARD, llurdle Mills, N. C, February 14th, 1917. I used some ZELL'S SPECIAL COMPOUND FOR TOBACCO 8-2-2 last year along with a 9-3-1 Fertilizer made by a standard manufacturer, and considered popu lar in this section, the goods being distributed by ma chinery the same amount per acre. Notwithstanding the fact that I used a light sprinkling of stable manure with the 9-3-1 which I did not use with Zell's and plant ed the tobacco over ZelPs last, I was surprised to find with this disadvantage, that Zell's madethe most tobacco and brought me the most money.
