King, a newspaper man and student of men who lectures here on opening day of the Chautauqua. For fourteen years he has edited a newspaper in an eastern manufacturing city with 6,000 skilled mechanics employed in three large factories. From his close association with this exceptional body of men and his Brfed observation in every state In the South, east and middle west he has a great lecture which he calls “The Almighty Dollar.*’ Money, be says, not bring happiness.' His plea is for a success worthy of the beet ability and thought and effort we can give. He emphasizes the value of work, training, tact, doing our beet, sticking to it, believing in oneself, looking on the bright side, fitting for something better, avoiding vice, reverencing God and, inally, being satisfied with what we receive, for In the end a man finds his Igval and receives 111 he la worth.

Lightning Kills Cattle.

Thursday afternoon the lightning killed, four cows belonging to Clarence Maxwell, who lives on the Welsh brothers farm in Jordan. Last year Mr. Maxwell had five cattle killed on this same farm. Thomas Brien, who lives about four miles west of' Foresman, had a fine big cow killed by lightning at the same time. All five head of stock were insured and this will take care in a very large measure the loss sustained by the owners. George H. Luse and his tenant, William J. Jeffrey, of Wheatfield, were in Rensselaer today and reported that Wheatfield Red Cross war fund had now reached $1,379.40. They have set their mark at-$1,500 ahd will undoubtedly reach it.

STOP THAT SUMMER COUGH We have coughs and grippy feelings in warm weather because colds are germ diseases. That’s why we should have Dr. King’s New Discovery handy.

You can feel its pleasant balsams soothe the inflammation, heal tissues strained by coughing and promote rest and sleep. Millions of bottles sold. 50c, SI.OO, at your druggist’s.

Keener Township Not Enthusiastic.

The Red Cross meteing at DeMotte Friday night was not in keeping with the other enthusiastic meetings that have been held all over Jasper county during the drive for the war fund. The Hollanders, at least, many of them, in that township have been reading German papers and are not back of the war wit hthe same spirit as most of the other people of the county. The Holland people are a good people and have made mighty good and useful citizens and if the matter can be given them in the light of truth and justice they will do everything in their power for the cause of the country that has given them better homes and greater opportunities than were offered in their native land. Dr. E. W. Strecker delivered a stirring address and many of the good loyal people there did their bit. A hundred and forty dollars of the Keener allotment of $250 was subscribed. The following named merchandise we are now selling for less than wholesale prices: Men’s and boys’ clothing, muslin and knit underwear, rugs, shoes, women’s and children’s dresses, all kinds of hosiery, dress goods, ginghams, percales, calicoes, etc.—The G.

War Fund Campaign Will Close Monday Evening

The drive for the Red Cross war fund will close with the meeting in Gillam township Monday evening. There will be a meeting at Fair Oaks tonight and another at Parr Sunday night. When the campaign is over every loyal citizen of good old Jasper will have just cause for rejoicing. Those who cannot go are sending their money. The oil on East Washington street near teh B. Forsythe residence, is very thick and automobile drivers henceforth had better be unusually wary dr they are liable to take a spill. It is almost an impossibility to turn the comer at this place without having the ear skid. One car, whose owner we have not learned, had a rear wheel broken off this Saturday morning when the car skidded, the rear wheel breaking before it could be righted after hitting the curbing. Friday a car belonging to a local physician who had a patient in with him at the time turned completely around as it was rounding the corner and the doctor was not driving very fast either.

WEATHER. Showers and thunderstorms tonight and Sunday morning, probably followed by clearing during Sunday; somewhat lower temperature in the south and central portions Sunday.

ADVERTISING IS AN OLD ART

Ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans Knew Something About the Value of Publicity. Advertising was well known In the palmy days of Egypt. Of course, they didn’t have the electric signs blazing across the sky, they didn’t know that red makes the best color for advertising, green 7 the sfitoml and black the next, but they did understand the-flrst principles and npplh d them in dally life, says the Detroit Free Press. * Perhaps the first bit of advertising copy was the “lost,-strayed or stolon” advertisement written by an Egyptian on a slip of papyrus when his favorite slave was missing. The Greeks bad even greater skill. They advertised their concerts, musical affairs, plays and contests. They gave us the'Men of using bands to attract a crowd, for tpey sent around their cities a town crier, accompanied by a musician playing a harp or a lyre. He, praised extravagantly In the best of Greek the thing he was advertising. Later the people began to advertise privately, on the walls of their homes, giving information about.the standing of’the family occupying the house and the state of their finances. The Rot inns went them one better. They named their streets, advertised shows, sales and exhibitions in their public baths, notified the public of sales of estates, posted lists of articles lost and found ami houses for sale or rent. When the Huns swept down upon Rome the advertisements disappeared with the Roman power and did not return until the town crier of the middle ; ges began advertising again.

WHERE PAPRIKA COMES FROM

Foreign Product Now S: ocessfully Raised by Many Farmers In South Carolina. Years ago agents of the bureau of plant industry turned their attention to paprika pepper. We don’t know what headed them toward pepper, and the report of their work does not tell us, -a writer in Everybody’s says. Paprika pepper is probably a mighty small Item In our national food budget. Up to that time we imported all that we used from Hungary and Spain. Our agents studied the characteristics of the plant and the soli and climate and cultivation that it required. Then they came back to this country to discover where paprika pepper could be profitably grown here. Down In Florence county, South Carolina, they found what appeared to be the required soli, climate and labor conditions. Moreover, the land there was not giving a really profitable account of Itself. After the department had proved by its own experiments that paprika pepper could be successfully grown In South Carolina, It furnished seed to a group of farmers who agreed to grow it under their directions. This was to insure a product of a propel standard. The Industry Is now fair-ly-well established, and If ever ws should be at war with Hungary and Spain at the same time, probably South Carolina could supply all the jaded palates of this country with a standard brand of paprika pepper.

Lesson of the Tug.

There’s nothing dishonorable in be ing a tug. In times of need a tug li worth a thousand pleasure boats. It’s what a man is able to do and doe« that tells what his worth is. Good clothes are pleasant to look upon, but they are often a hindrance in tlmei of distress. Kid gloyes may have 8 place in the family pew and soda! functions, but the ways of the world demand tougher stock in labor. It takes overalls, corduroy and buckskin to stand the strain. They are not beautiful but they are mighty efficient when the right kind of power gets in side of them. And you are no lees e gentleman because they fit you. That man is honorable who makes hlmselt respected by his conduct and the wort he does. No amount of polish car atone for a mean ideal. And nc amount of toil can lower the man od honor to the level of the beast. Th< tug may be insignificant beside th« lines, but its work is Just as honorabk and often requires just a* much braini and skill to accomplish it.—Pennsyl vanla Grit.

How to Deal With Germs

In dealing with germs, it should b« remembered that a germ of the mildest appearance may very often be most savage. Don’t be deceived by a germ that looks harmless. The male germ as a rule, is the most voracious and it may always be known by its gaj plumage. Germs, as we have beer taught, bring with them every sort of disease, and while germs—are- not always fatal, they try their best tc be. The average conscientious germ is chagrined when he fails to kill. Il a number of germs .are engaged on a Job and do not succeed they are is disgrace with the folks back home Teach the children to swat the germs Particularly the young germs. Germa like people, are most odious at tht adolescent age.
