Danger InCoughs
That Hang-On
Neglected coughs often lead to worse
trouble. Yet there is a simple method
based on the famous Dr. King's New
Discovery, which usually breaks the
worst cough entirely in 24 hours.
Here is the method: You take just
one teaspoonful and hold it in your
throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swal-
lowing it. It has a double action. It
not only soothes and heals irritation,
but also removes the phlegm and con-
gestion which are the real cause of the
coughing. So the most stubborn cough
soon disappears completely.
Dr. King's New Discovery is for
coughs, chest colds, bronchitis, spas-
modic croup, etc. Fine for children,
too—no harmful drugs. Very economi-
cal, as the dose is only one teaspoonful.

Relieved by Cardui.
"1 was ill and had to stay in bed
under treatment for about two
weeks without any improvement in
my condition, which was serious,"
says Mrs. J. T. Abercrombie,
R. F. D. 7, Brookville, Ind.
"I had intense pain in my side.
I was so nervous and weak and
just out of heart....
"After taking one bottle of
Cardui, I felt like getting up. My
nerves seemed steadier and I
didn't feel so weak. I kept up
taking Cardui and was soon feeling
like my old self. ..
"I am such a believer In Cardui
Until when I get nervous and weak
I take it. I took it before my
children were born. It strengthen-
ed ir.e and helped my nerves.
"I took a cold and ... my back
felt so weak and 1 had such pulling
pains. I took Cardui and didn't
nave any more trouble.
"1 fell and broke my arm. The
fall shook me up and, made me
very nervous. I told them Cardui
would help that, and it did."

BEI
An almost entire reversal of the
farmer's old time attitude on farm lit-
erature has taken place in the last 23
years. Whereas, in the past, farmers
in general have had a genuine con-
tempt for books and magazines which
pretend to give them suggestions for
securing better results in farm activ-
ities, they now appreciate the real
value in the present rich farm litera-
ture. Practically every farm home
of today contains its farm library and
receives one or more farm papers.
The farmer and live stock raiser
knows that in them are contained In-
numerable practical experiences of
others like themselves.
Influence of Farm College
One of the leading forces which
brought about this change fs the ag-
ricultural college. The fact that the
"ag" school has proved that it can be
of service to farmers has served to
help it commond the respect of farm-
ers in general. Today, the college
trained farmer, stock raiser and gar-
dener are no longer rare individuals
—their influence is being felt in ev-
ery community, and a large part ot
that influence has been exerted in the
direction of acquiring and passing
along practical information. The
work of county farm agents naturally
influences toward more reading, too.
As the agricultural college has jus.
tified its existence, so have the var-
ious well edited farm papers and mag-
azines. The fact that they are edited
from the farmers viewpoint, and by
men and women who really know
farm problems, has made for them a
permanent place in the farm life of
the nation.
One factor often overlooked in the
development of the reading habit
among farm people, is the manufac-
ture of farm products. No longer is
the man who has a plow to sell, con-
tent merely to send a catalogue of his
plows—now he furnishes a well writ-
ten, well illustrated, well printed text.
book in several colors, which not only
contains descriptions of his plows,
but also a vast fund of information
about caring for soil, fertilizing,
drainage cultivation, crop rotation
and kindred subjects.
All About Poultry
Two such books which have recent-
ly come to our attention are worthy
of special mention—The Purina Poul-
try Book and the Purina Cow Book.
Both of these books are authoritative
texts in their respective fields. The
Purina Poultry Book discusses breeds
of poultry, hatching, care of poultry,
culling, feeding, record keeping, sum-
merfeeding, moulting, artificial light
and many other subjects. Of the sev-
enty pages, probably less than seven
deal directly with Purina Poultry
Chows. So too, the Purina Cow Book,
contains nearly one hundred pages of
practical information about the com-11 want to be able to like myself.
Georgetown, Texas, April 2.—In the
district court here Judge Cooper San-
som rendered a verdict for 825,000 in
avor of S. J. Camblin and wife, Mrs.
Agnes Camblin, against Arthur E.
Ake, administrator of the estate of
John Chrastecky Jr., and Antone
Chrastecky, deceased, the case having
been appealed from the county cours.
The plaintiffs in the case are the
father and mother of Sam Camblin,
by whom the claim was first institu-
ted. On his death, his parents were
made parties of the suit.
Sam Camblin was shot while sitting
on the sidewalk in Taylor, Sept. 17,
1925, by the two Chrastecky brothers,
who drove up in a car and began
shooting, killing one man and wound-
ing Camblin. The Charstecky's who
were Bohemians, left Taylor, and com-
mitted suicide by shooting themselves
on the road to their home, a few miles
from Taylor. Camblin was carried to
a hospital and for some time it was
thought that he would recover, but
death resulted.
An inventory showed the Charstekv
brothers to have had certificates or
deposit in various banks amounting
to about $15,000, about 30 bales of
cotton, an automobile, mules, firm
implements, and various other proper-
ty The judgment was for one-half of
the amount against the estate of Jno.
Chrastecky and half against the estate
of Antone Chrastecky, and for all
costs against both Charsteckys' es-
tates.

MYSELF
I have to live with myself, and so
I want to be fit for myself to know,
I want to be able as the days go by,
Always to look myself straight in the
eye. I
I don't want to stand, with the set-
tin sun,
And hate myself for the things I've
done.
I don't want to keep in the closest
shelf,
A lot of secrets about myself
And fool myself as I come and go,
Into thinking that nobody else would
know
The kind of a man I really am;
I don't want to dress up myself In
sham.
I want to go out with my head erect,
I want to deserve all men's respect;
But here in the struggle for fame and
pelf,
REMEMBER!

'I AM JUST A POOR FARMER"
How many of you have heard the
expression, "I am just a poor farmer"
Isn't it about time the farmers of this
country quit demeaning their own oc-
cupation and take a little pride in ft?
Who ever heard of a merchant, a doc-
tor, a lawyer or a brick mason talk
about his job as though he were
ashamed of it? Successful men, and
many who have not yet attained suc-
cess, are proud of their occupation,
trade or profession^—all but the farm-
er—and not one of them has as much
to be proud Of as a farmer who suc-
cessfully combats insects and vari-
able weather and helps feed and
clothe the world.
