We favor only one way. First kill your cat. A cross-eyed husbandman asked his hired man to hold the oat so he could brain it with the axe. The hired man grasped the animal firmly and glanced up at the wlelder of the axe. "Hold on there, boss," he cried. "If you're going to hit where you're looking, you'll have to get some one else to hold this cat." The occurrence of chill or chilli ness in the beginlng or in the course of so many different infectious dis eases is deplorable, because it leads so many uneducated people to the con-1 result elusion that all sorts of illness may j droplets of moisture carrying some be caused by "exposure," and this fal-; four feet from the nose or mouth of "oolds," go-called, of soldiers in the trenches (not soldiers in overcrowded barracks in cantonments) has as yet made but little impression on the popular mjnd this side of the water, bat wait till the boys come home from over there, and you will find them rather amused at the suggestion that wet feet predispose to "colds." Health authorities in other states are inculcating in the minds of school children one great lesson: "Every so-called 'cold' is caused by a transfer of germs from one person to another." In the schoolroom is the place to teach the youngsters this vital fact. It is the place to teach them the dan ger of the open-face sneeze and the unmuzzled cough. It is the place to teach them the harmlessness of cool air. If they learn that a simple "head cold" or sore throat is the probable of spray infection (invisible WOMEN PRAISE STELLA-V1TAE aW' 'TV I Mi waUImH UmT li?vvW-Y?w km I A PRIMARY LES80N. Colds Do Not Just Happen, Neither Are They Caused by Fresh Air or ijr--i Exposure. lacy in turn leads te a great deal of preventable illness. If you harbor a sneaking suspicion that exposure is even a contributing cause of pneumonia, bronchitis, coryza (cold in the head), diphtheria, or other respiratory infection, you are Just nat urally going to be a trifle careful to keep in out of the air, or to keep the air out of your bedroom when the air seems cold or damp. This practice, if indulged to any extent, is certain to render you less rosistant to the very Infections you imagine you are avoid ing by coddling yourself. The remarkable freedom from the person who sneezes or coughs without holding handkerchiet over nose and mouth), they wont be so ticklish about having fresh air in the bedroom at night as their misguided parents were. And so the little lesson in personal hygiene adds to the health and efficiency of our future citizens. Our children will look back, some day, to the absurd belief of their par ents in the "exposure" myth, and won der how intelligent people could ever have harbored such fancies. Just as we look back to the time when eur parents were actually afraid to admit "night air." We want every afflicted woman to try at least one Dottle ot Stella-Vitae on our plain, open guarantee to return the money paid for it if it does not benefit If you doubt our word that it will relieve the distressing aches, pains and misery peculiar to the diseases of wo men , read the testimony of these women who have tried it and are glad to tell others what it has done for them. The only interest they have in the matter is that which any true woman feels in helping to relieve the sufferings of other women. You can believe them. Mrs. J. F. Lee, Milstead, Ga., had female complaint for years. Three bot ties of Stella-Vitab cured her, she said, and added," l am certainly thank ful for this great female tonic." Mrs Paralee Frazier. Longview. Tex., ex pressed appreciation of Stel,l,a-Vitae In these words: "1 cannot say too much for this wonderful medicine. I had taken other female medicines for two years with no good results. I am truly grateful for the good Stella- vitai has done me." Mrs. Sandy Withers of Greensboro, Ala., was a terrible suf ferer from female trouble and only i woman knows what that means! Her condition got so bad her pains threw her into spells like fits. Her husband feared she would lose her mind. The Greensboro doctors pronounced her in curable. Then somebody suggested; that she take Stella-Vitae. She did so. The first dose lightened her spells. Stella-Vitae is a perfectly harm- i less compound anditnotonly alleviates a woman's pain, but builds up her health; it stimulates her appetite, aids digestion, quiets her nerves and clears her complexion. It improves her per sonal appearance. 'All dealers sell Stella-Vitae, and are authorized to return the money paid for the first bottle if it does not benefit Sole in Lnmberton and recommend ed as the world's best corn remedy by Pope Drug Co.

The public school at Cedar Grove is progressing finely. It is now in the fourth year of its age and so popular and fruitful has it been since the be ginning that now two teachers have to be employed instead of one as form erly. The teachers both live in tne community and many congratulations are being passed on our splendid com mittee and patrons for this fact. Services Saturday and Sunday at Cedar Grove were delightful.

Mr. Willis rs an interesting writer and a spienaia speaker. In fact, all the correspond ents are valuable contributors. We do not know of any other paper that can boast of a finer staff than The Robesonian. The Legislature will soon be in ses sion and it is to be hoped some fine law may passed relative to automobile driving. Some who are careful driv ers have to watch out for both them selves and others when they strike the streets of Lumberton or they'll run together. A newish, or careless, or irresponsible car driver ought to be rigidly restricted everywhere. "AJAX." Don't Torture Your Child! TO MOTHERS!

Give Cascarets, then never worry. St. Pauls Messenger.
