I MARION PROGRESS. MARION, N. C., THURSDAY, NOV. 28, 1929 Never wait to see if a headache will “wear off.” Why suffer when there’s Bayer Aspirin? The millions of men and women who use it in increasing quantities every year prove that it does relieve such pain. The medical profession pro nounces it without effect on the heart, so use it as often as it can spare you any pain. Every drug^st always has genuine Bayer Aspirin for the prompt relief of a headache, colds, neuralgia, lumbago, etc. Fa miliarize yourself with the proven directions in every package. 0VSPIRIN PAINFUL I INDIGESTION *1 SUPTEEED firom indi- j gestion — everythixig I ! ate gave me heartburn,’* says Mrs. Mattie Mul lins, of Pound, Va. Tor months, I did not see a well day. I wor- along, but never feltwelL got a package of Thed- i ford’s Black-Draught at the | store and began ft—a I dose every night before going to bed. I had been having an awful pain. After I had taken Black-Draught, this pain en tirely stopped. Ibegantogain ! in weight, and rested well at nig^t. In a few months I was j feeling fine. My health was bet ter than it had been in years. **I keep Black-Draught in our home, and we all take it for constipation and iq>8et stomach.” Insist on Thed£ord*8 by Arthur Brisbane Cheaper Money Bank Stocks Women’s Colleges Starved 3,000 Automobile Deaths Money was cheaper for all purposes, real business or Wall Street bargain buying. Wise bankers will pass on to In dustry and business the benefit of the federal reserve discount cut In October this country sold to other countries mercliandise amounting to five hundred and thirty millioa dol lars, a record for the year, and for eight years, excepting two months In 1928. In October we bought from foreign ers three hundred and ninety-two mil lions worth of goods. Business is good, money is cheap. Then, what Is the matter with us? Two things—a period of reckless gambling and a wave of hysteria. Strangest among developments of the late Wall Street cyclone was the drop in prices of bank stocks. Banks always make money. The peo ple have no Intention of getting along without credit, or without money. When times are good they use a great deal of It When times are bad they need a great deal of it Yet the most brilliant and success- I ful banks in New York saw their ■ i stocks dwindle In value in the recent panic of fear to an extent that ex ceeded the drop In any other line of I stocks on the list j Records show that since September the greatest banks in New York have averaged a drop Of 52 per cent in quoted prices of their stocks. This applies to the greatest banks in the world—banks whose stock will have an ultimate value difficult to exag gerate. And this drop In the price of stocks came in the face of a banking condi tion not merely absolutely sound, but extraordinarily prosperous, and “liquid.” Other countries are puzzled by ex traordinary accumulations of gold in the Bank of France. The French have more gold than any country in the world, except this country, and are rapidly approaching us in gold re- /6r CONSTIPATION, INDIGESTION, BUIOUSNESS Mother! Clean Child's Bowels with "California Rg Syrup" Even if cross, feverish, bilious, eont atipated or full of cold, children love th€ pleaeant taste of “California Fig Syrup.” A teaspoonful never fails to clean the liver and bowels. Ask your druggist for genuine “Cali fornia Fig syrup” which has directions for babies and children of all ages printed on bottle. Mother! You must ■ay “Calii^mia” or you may get an imitation fig syrup. RED BAR COAL COMPANY MARION, N. C. Subscribe for the Marion Progress —the home town paper. There Is nothing puzzling about It The French are marvelously thrifty. Their government Is Intelligent and determined. What they want they mean to have, and they usually get it. Charles E. Hughes made a good speech recently, demanding more gen erous endowment of women’s educa tion. Seven leading women’s colleges have not one-tenth the endowment of the seven leading men’s colleges. That Is extremely foolish, for the mothers of the human race are at least ten times as important as the fathers. What women learn they remember and tell to their children. What men leam they forget in business and don’t tell anybody. In September, according to the Trav elers Insurance company, 3,000 were I killed in automobile accidents, a new j record. j Bad whisky accounts for some kill- I Ings, and “jay-walking,” carelessness of pedestrians, accounts for many more. Adults should know, children should be taught that every highway is more dangerous than a railroad, automo biles being more numerous than trains, and just as dangerous. In old-fashioned war, Switzer land relied on her mountains, her men, all trahied soldiers able to use a rifle, and on the fact that It would cost more than it would be worth to conquer her. But now, with mountains, rivers or water no longer a protecting bar rier, Switzerland orders one hundred and five ah-planes. Men used to joke about “the Swiss navy.” But Switzer land is now on the shore, the air be ing the real ocean, and she means to have an air fleet Uncle Sam, take notice. For the first time in twenty years, savings bank depositors have dropped. During the past year savings have diminished by $195,305,000, and the number of depositors by 524,221. Those that drew their money to buy automobiles, radio sets, vacuum cleaners, electric washing machines, are wise. They get something better than their dollars. Those that drew out money, safely placed, to speculate in stocks, know now that It is onwlse to gamble. John D. Rockefeller In 1928 spent more than twenty-one million dollars fighting disease all over the world. Diseases start in different parts of the earth and spread everywhere. Yellow fever must be fought in Brazil, Africa, Central America. Africa is the home of tbe most deadly trypanosomei^ for which wild game provides an inexhaustible ervoir. Sportsmen that kill wild beasts lielp the human race without knowing or intending it (®, lt29, by King Fcatom Sjradkftte, iac) CHAMPIONS BOTH Expressinff Our Gratitude Gratitude must have an object It must recognize the source of the debt. It must express a feeling toward some thing exterior to itself. If our favored position and condition are due to our own efforts then we owe nothing, have no reason for gratitude, and there Is no object to which thankfulness can -be directed. Or if this is a material world and nothing else. If life is mere ly a mechanical process, there is noth ing outside of ourselves to which we should be grateful. And If we are ma chines, automatons moving about In rigid obedience to physical stimuli, any sense of gratitude to anything, or for anything, is only a mechanical reac tion that has neither meaning nor value.—Exchange.
