Life is too short to waste, and death is too long not to be prepared for it. The shoe said to the stocking. I will wear a hole in you. Stocking said, that'll be shocking But I'll be darned if you do. The stork is no respector of per sons. He will bring most anybody a baby. Gives prettiest babies to the ugliest parents. Wants to im prove the looks of the race you see. Now that Bryan has horned into the treaty discussion Democratic Senators of the Reed-Gore-Shields-Walsh school are reciting the cou plet: "Things have come to a hell of a pass when Wilson can't wallop his own jackass." Hickory. Times Mercury. More Vital Home Problems. From the secluded portico of the White House the present chief ex ecutive still entertains himself with the belief that the American people want the league of nations. . If he only knew how much more impor tant those same American people feel the high cost of living, the bol shevik danger and labor unrest to be he might still be able to perform a few real Presidential acts for his country before being retired for good next November. - Yadkin Ripple. ' " ;'.?

No Great Act of Heroism Required If some: great actf heroism $as necessary to protedt a &ild- from croup, no mother would fiesilate to protect her offspring,!; but wJie& it is only necessary to keep- 'atihantl a bottle of Chamberffin'S Cough Remedy and give it as sootfas the first indication of croup 1 appears; there many who neglect it. 'Cham berlain's Cough Remedy is within the reach of all and is jprompt and effectual.: ' : . v Take Your County Paper. There has been much said about the kind of papers one should take, in iact, there has been columns written by the pens pf the world's ablest writers urging the public ev erywhere to first take their own county paper, as that is the seat of much thought and the place where progressive moves are to be started. Wherever you find a man who is a regular reader of his home paper and is ever ready to urge his friends and neighbors to become regular subscribers, you wall find a man of much influence. In speaking along this line a few days ago the Progressive Farmer said. "First of all take your county paper, then your trade paper, and then such magazines, church papers and political papers as you wish. In spite of the fact that I edit a farm paper, you will see that I put the county paper first. I do this because a man's first great need is to be in touch with his immediate environment. He cannot do the work of a good citizen unless he is in touch with affairs, movements, and events in his own locality. If your county paper is not what it ought to be subscribe for it anyhow send it items showing neighborhood progress and improvement, and help get the editor aroused about all; matters that are needed for the bet terment of your section and the county as a whole. Ex. Hays Scores Democrats. Referring to the Republican party as the "real war party, after all," Will H. Hayes, chairman of the Republican National Committee, at Denver, Colo., Jan. 8th scored the Democrats for what he termed their politics of extravagence. Mr. Hays was unsparing in his criticism of the administration. He declared that government employes were "yet so thick in Washington you have to kick them out of your way." He said that the name of every buyer of liberty bonds in the United States was on the Demo cratic mailing list and that govern ment records at Washington had been searched by the Democratic party for names to add to the mail ing lists in the forthcoming campaign. 'We were shut out of the "war jobs in the main," said Hays, "and now we are excluded from all these records which are available to the opposition." He declared postmas ter General Burleson had ordered a rural free delivery census of all adults and he predicted that this list would be used by the Democrats to ' 'flood the country with campaign literature. To the Dyspeptic. . Would you not like to feel that your stomach troubles are over, that you can eat any kind of food that you crave? Consider then the fact that Chamberlain's Tablets have cured others- why not you. There are many who have been re stored to health by taking these tablets and can now eat any kind of food that they crave. When they ceased cranking auto mobiles, profanity dropped off twenty-five per cent, but high gas oline prices brought the percentage back to normal. Grove's Tasteless chill Tonic restores vitality and energy by purifying and en riching the blood. You can soon feel its Strength- If you put all your eggs in one basket and. take it to market take along another basket to bring home the money. . , Don't You Forget It. v Bear in mind that Chamberlain's Tablets not only move the bowels but improve the appetite and strengthen the digestion. They contain no poison or other diges tif ferment but strengthen the stbmach;andehable it -to perform its functions naturally. Looking for Oil. Eastern North Carolina may rival the young oil fields of Texas and Kentucky and Dr. Coffeys outfit in Oklahoma will be removed to this State wichin the next few mouths if the dreams of Paul C Remick of Wilmington come true. So certain is he that there is oil hidden in the depths of the earth down in Pender and Duplin counties that he leased forty thousand acres of land from the State board of education a few days ago and will proceed to test his beliefs. The department of ed ucation will get one-sixteenth of the proceeds if there are any, and if there are not it will lose - nothing at all. There are not a few citizens of the southeastern section that hold to the opinion that there is a vast quantity of oil in the earth down in that section. Notable among the protagonists of the petroleum theory is Col. Thomas W. Clawson, for years editor of The Wilmington Star. Col. Clawson has talked oil wells for eastern Carolina, believes in them absolutely, and has con vinced others that there is a fortune hidden at no great debth below the surface. He is not promoting any oil company, but he has spread his belief abroad until it has taken root in the minds of others, and hence the leasing of the State's property down in Duplin and Pender. No announcement has been made of the immediate intentions of Mr. Remick, but it is unlikely that he will be long about- making them public. Kx. Telling Joey Where to Get Off. It took old fightin' Bill Sims to tell Josephus Daniels where to " get off ! The Admiral has the old love for the honor and the traditions of the United States Navy and Mr. Daniels has no use fer them. There fore he made the honor of the navy a thing for favoritism. What a re buke to the men who have given their lives to the service! Ex. Life's a funny proposition after all. It seems that the most efficient fellows in Washington during the war were the "ones who got only a dollar a year for their services. Pale Children Need Glide's Pepto-Mangan Unnatural for Children to be Pale and Thin Paleness is Sign of Thin, Watery Blood. Pepta-Mangan Makes Red Blood Prepared in Liquid and Tablet Form-Both Possess Identical Medicinal Qualities. Revaluation. Editor of The Daily News: I read yonr editorial in Satur day's issue on the governor's speech and I am writing to say that I think Mr. Linney's position in the reval uation of property is misunderstocd and I -say this because I heard him state his position on it. He does not deny having some thing to do with suggesting certain changes in the law, neither does he say now that the law is a bad one or that he is opposed to it, but he does say he is opposed to the method of its execution and to a valuation based on the inflated prices pertain ing at this time and so far as I understand the position of the Re publicans this is their objection. DI have had something to say about the execution of this law my self and my sole purpose has been to caution those in charge of this revaluation not to let the inflated prices prevailing at this time be the basis of the values fixed for taxation for should this be done it would mean ruin to the farmers if tobacco, cotton, wheat and other farm pro ducts should drop to the prices pre vailing before the war, when the cry went up all over the land "Bujr a bale' ' to save the cotton producer. C. A. REYNOLDS. Winston-Salem. Colds Cause Grip and Influenza LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablets remove the cause. There is only one Bromo Quinine." E. W. GROVE'S signature on box. 30a The School Question. ,The school question is one pf the big questions. More young and older men should go to teaching. They could teach through the win ter and do other work in the sum mer. There are always jobs open for worthy people, those willing to work. It takes time and vmoney to learn one to teach in fact, the longer one teaches, the better he or she knows how. Men can teach after they marry, girls can't, or, at least, they don't. The old time public schools have not been im proved on much not in proportion to the cost, no way. But nothing has for that matter, from the church up or down. Hickory Times-Mercury. The Best Cough Medicine. When a druggist finds that his cus tomers all speak well of a certain preparation, he forms a good opin ion of it and when in need of such a medicine is almost certain to use it himself and in his family. This is why so many druggists urge and recommend Chamberlain's Couch Remedy. J. B. Jones, a well known druggist of Cubrun, Ky., says, "I have used Chamberlain's Couch Remedy in my family for the past seven years, ana l nave louua it to be the best cough medicine I have ever known." It is necessary for boys and girls to laugh, romp, play, and enjoy themselves, for it is at that stage of life that the foundation is laid for future health. Prompt attention should be giv en to the child who seldom laughs, whose physical condition prevents playing like the other whose appetite is poor, tires easily. If the lassitude is due to poor blood, which is often the case, a simple, safe, and pleasant remedy is within easy reach. Gude's JPep- to-Mangan is just the tonic tor pale, thin children. Gude's Pepto-Mangan contains the very in gredients that increase and enrich the blood, enabling it to supply the entire bodyrwith the sorely needed vigor, strength and vitality that make happy, romping children. For the convenience of the pub lic. Pepto-Mangan is prepared in tablet as well as liquid form. Both forms possess exactly the ame me dicinal properties. When you ask the druggist for Pepto-Mangan, look for the name "Glide's" on the package. If it is not-there it is not Pepto-Mangan., -J...;- ; - Attention Woodrow Wilson. Perhaps both Woodrow Wilson and his ardent followers have for gotten the iollowing pungent words uttered by the President in Waslir ington, D. C , on May 6, 1914. To refresh their memories we quote as follows:' "America should lead her own life . . . We cannot form al- children, j Hances with those who are not going and WhO rtur 7r tifrl tint TCP vi. t .wv, should not, form alliances with any nation in the world. Those who are right, those who hold their honor higher than their advantage do not need alliances." Ex.

Witfi New Clothes Like These a Sale Is Superfluous. The only thing that can be said in defense of the January Sale is that it clears house of undesirable num bers.

At this time of year instead of worrying about back numbers, we are initiating new members. Today for example: Young men's new Belted Suits that are so new you can almost feel the heat from the tailor's goose.
