The Roanoke Reacon Published Every Friday in Plymouth, North Carolina c l W A rftfi'oS’.Owner SADIE AUSBOX, . . Business Mur. $1.50 A YEAR IN ADVANCE Address all communications to The Roanoke Beacon, Plymouth, N C. Entered as second-class mail matter ttt the Postofl’ice at Plymouth, North Carolina, under the Act of March 3, 1887 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1927 China, it seems, wants to have a hand in bossing China. The women. God bless cm, have so far failed to reform politics. The writers of most of the lur'd novels of the epoch are against censorship. China has enough “generous" offers to satisfy the most gluttinous diplomat. Italy is fighting the Y. M. C. A. That won't hurt the Y. M. C. A. much in the long run. A newspaper may be legally en titled to reject advertising but very few of them ever do so. Our extra slice of pie for this week is awarded the fruit seller who lets the buyer pick his own. Any newly married couple in Plymouth can tell you how to be happy through married. Paying your subscription in the month of Feburary will enable you to begin March like a lion. The average sweet young thing is just thinking how charming she will look in her new spring suit. Five new color', are reported in the advance French styles; they are the same old ones, with new7 names. Farmers in Washington Co. are now preparing to gamble with the weather as well as the bulls and years. Good relations w ith South Ameri ca w ill probably help our trade to exceed the $2,000,000,000 total of last year. Even a man, like Roger Bacon, wise for his time, some seven hun dred years ago, had an elixir of life. It didn't work. If you want to make individual progress ask yourself, every even ing. “What was the most foolish thing I did today?" When commissions begin to study a subject it is time for the rest of the public to give up all hope of understanding it. The average employer will give more care to a $2,000 machine in his shop than to a worker at the bench, running the machine. Insurance, once illegal as gam bling, has become a great financial power. One company has assets of more than two billion dollars. The president declares for “ade quate military preparedness," Yes. yes, but there is so much difference of opinion as to what it is. Nowadays, w hen a Washington resident speaks of the new Senator from Texas he doesn't mean any body less than Tristam Speaker. In the midst of all the extra dividend news we have so far failed to see where any farmer announced a stock divided or an extra slice of profits.

His wrist was so badly strained and swollen that he lost entire use of it for over a week. Remedies of various kinds failed to give the lad relief to any degree. His worried parents at last procured a bottle of Hanford’s Bal sam of Myrrh. A few applications quickly reduced the swelling and the pain. Hundreds of others have found relief in similar cases by us ing tills great remedy. Hanford's Balsam of Myrrh Is a liniment and an antiseptic. It is recommended especially for use In serious cases of old sores, cuts, burns, bruises and sprains of any kind.
