Washington, Dec. 14. — Represen tative Doughton, chairman of the ways and means committee, said to day anybody who bought whiskey from a bootlegger was ' 'guilty of collusion to defraud the government. "During prohibition," Doughton said, "bootleggers were patronized at times by otherwise law-abiding people who gave the excuse that the law denied them rightful liberties. That excuse can no longer be used, now that the government has made it possible to purchase liquor legally. "No man who is a conscientious citizen will continue to patronize a bootlegger. The bootlegger operates not only in defiance of the law but also for the purpose of defrauding the government of just taxes, reve nue that is sorely needed to carry on our vast programs of relief to the suffering and to provide employment for the jobless. "By insisting that liquor be legal ly made, bought and sold, I do not mean to encourage the liquor traffic nor the liquor habit as I believe in and practice temperance as well as obedience to the law."

WEEKLY MEDITATION By Rev. Paul A. Boriack, B. D., Pastor St. Mathew's Lutheran Church, Marion, N. C. As the joyful Christmas season is approaching we are impressed with I the importance of children. The re ' sponsibilities of a Christian toward j the children become more pronoun I ced in the birth of the Christ-Child 'He it was that said: Suffer the little children to come unto Me. And He took them up in His arms and blessed ; them. They are not with Christ or in j Christ by nature but must be brought I to Him as He says. That is the duty ; of every true Christian, to bring the 1 children to Christ, the Savior of all 1 mankind, also of little children, j Quentin Rogg said: "A Christianity which does no compel a man to save his fellows has but little that is akin to the Spirit of Christ." And that in cludes children. Consequently he built the Polytechnic Institute for the poor boys of London. And his biographer writes: "The Polytechnic had indeed become his sole purpose in life, his very reason for existence. His business never suffered, but out side that, his philanthropic work claimed his faculties and absorbed his throughts until there was no room for any private considerations apart from it., any personal desires or am bitions that were not concerned with the perfecting and supporting of it." George Mueller of Bristol is famous for the work he did for the orphans, so is Dr. Barnardo. "Steady that ladder," yelled a painter to a man below. He did. It was Peter Cooper. He is still doing it, holding the ladder for many a poor boy to climb up—in Cooper Institute, in New York City. John Marshall, the mighty Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court,, prayed every morning and night the prayer taught him by his mother and died trusting to the at onement of Christ. President Grover Cleveland taught his children , the love of Christ by having them taught the wonderful Christmas hymns of Luther and others: From heaven above to earth I come To bear good news to every home; Glad tiding of great joy I bring, Whereof I now will say and sing. To you this night is born a child Of Mary, chosen virgin mild; This little child, of lowly birth, Shall be the joy of all the earth. LIFE SPAN OF ANIMALS A sheep livea 10 years. A cat lives 15 years.

Doctors Give Creosote For Dangerous Coughs For many years our best doctors have prescribed creosote in some form for coughs, colds and bronchitis, knowing how dangerous it is to let them hang on. Creomulsion with creosote and six other highly important medicinal elements, quick ly and effectively stops all coughs and colds that otherwise might lead fo serious trouble. Creomulsion is powerful in the treatment of all colds and coughs, yet it is absolutely harmless and is pleasant and easy to take. Your own druggist guarantees Creomul sion by refunding your money if you are not relieved after taking Creomulsion as directed. Beware the cough or cold that hangs on. Always keep Creomulsion on hand for instant use. (adv.) Why Liquid Laxatives are Back in Favor The public is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People have learned that the properly prepared liquid laxative will bring a perfect movement without any discomfort at the time, or after. The dose of a liquid laxative can be varied to suit the needs of the individual. The action can thus be regulated. A child is easily given the right dose. And mild liquid laxatives do not irritate the kidneys. Doctors are generally agreed that senna is the best laxative for every body. Senna is a natural laxative. It does not drain the system like the cathartics that leave you so thirsty. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a liquid laxative which relies on senna for ito laxative action. It has the average person's bowels as regular as clockwork in a few weeks' time. You can always get Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at any drugstore, ready for use. Member N.R.A.
