A ITEALTH MEASURE. v
In line with other towns in the
state, city council has just passed
an ordinance announcing that all
hogs in the city must go. March
list is the time limit for their ex-
odus, after which it shall be unlaw
ful for any person^to keep live hogs
or pigs within the city limits. This
step is taken following ■ .a reecnt
recommendation- of the hoard of
health looking to better health and
sanitary conditions.
This action is well taken. With
the coming of warm weather, hog
pens in congested residential sec
tions become a. nuisance and a re,
detrimental to the health of —Uhm-
. Such an ordinance, looking to
better health conditions in the}
community, shotfld meet with the I
.unanimous approval of our people.
It has on in.
Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, helped Mrs. Wil
liam Evefsole, of Hazel
Patch, Ky. Read what
she writes: "I had a
general breaking-down
of my health. I was in
bed for week<i, unable to
get up. 1 had such a
weakness and dizziness,
and the pains were,
very severe. 'A friend
to i me 1 had tried every
th ig else, why not
Cardui ? .. . 1 did, and
saw It was helping'
me .,. After 12 bottles,
1 am strong and well.'*

RECIPROCITY.
Trade at home with the home
man. the man that resides at home,
spends his money at home, arid see
how much better you and he feel
about about it. Your money will
stay at home then—ten to one he
comes in ,n few days later and
spends your money in your house
that you did in his. Don’t let a
man trade, either, with you a hun
dred years, and not buy anything
of him*. If you don’t commence
sometime to reciprocate he is liable

Clinton's growth is being ham-
perod by ^.iack of houses. We know
of two gory! families that have re
cently tried to locate here and
found it impossible since tlpey
eoiildn '! gel hollies. Every vaeam
lot in tov n should he ppt to use by
erecting new homes.
Not long now until our big An
niversary Day. Our business men
should be planning for it right now,
and yet they haven’t given it a
thought. There should be a wide
awake Chamber of Commerce at the
head of the proposition. Leader
ship is needed. What good, public-
spirited citizen will volunteer to
take the leadership in planning the
big celebration?
HOUSES WANTED—How can
Clinton grow when new people mov
ing in can 't find living accommoda
tions? A number of neat, comfort
able cottages can be profitably
rented as fast as they can be erect
ed. Some of riur citizens who have
the “raw dough,” as MicLendon
would say. can help themselves as
well as the town by supplying this
’ pj e-sing need. .
Be a ehautauqua booster. Other
towns, not half as large or good as
Clinton, are annually enjoying well
established chautauquas. * We need
to wake up, stretch out and show
some interest in other things be
sides making money for ourselves.
What arc you doing to help Clin
ton grow- ? Ask yourself seriously
and then give an honest answer.

the only way your- business can
grow is for the town to grow-. Don’t
