A Plain Talk With You The following is a sermon ta ken from the sayings of Evange list Billy Williams and publish ed in the Greenville Piedmont: Privileges and freedom come bo women because of the Gospe'. Where the Gospel is not preach d, woman is a slave to the law ind to man. Woman was last at the cross, first at the grave and firsi preached to by the resurrected Christ. Woman led man out of Para se. She should make it her business to lead him back again. The training that best fits ai irl for heaven, fits her for this lif e. Anything that unfits foi glory, unfits to live on earth. Girls, men don't think at much of you with your waisi moved down three or four inch as below where God intended hat it should be, and with the Eeels of your shoes throwing your body into a k'angaroc shape. Men know that tinsel isn'1 old; that sweet lips and spark ling eyes are not enough to keen Eouse upon. Men are not looking for a doll baby. They can get a doll foi 25 cents. There is no such thing as sin gle blessedness, but there is ouble cassedness. Better be the good wife of a bad husband than bad like, the Eusband.

Address BOSTON, MASS. sold Medal For Best Compsoition A gold madal to the school y or girl between the aaes of ) and 15 who writes the best )mposition, not to exceed 800 ,ords, on the repair and main mance of earth roads is to be warded by Logan Wal:er Page, irector, Office of Public Roads, rnited States Department of griculture, Washington, D. C. ,li compositions must be sub iitted to Mr. Page before May 5, 1913, and the medal will be warded as soon thereafter a ae compositions can be graded. 'he composition may be based n knowledge gained from hooks r other sources, but no quota Lons should be made. After many years' experience 2~ dealing with the pablic road ituation of the country, it is r. Page's belief that ignorance n the, subject of repair and iaintenance of roads is as much e cause of their bad condition s any other one factor. It is xpected that the competition 7ill bring about a better under landing of the subject of repair nd maintenance in the rural istricts. Many children living in rural istricts have experienced the isadvantage of roads made im assable through the lack of roper maintenance and it is ex ected that their interest in the m position will create a greater iterest among the parents. ad roads have prevented many bildren from obtaining a prop e education and have even pre ented doctors from reaching 1e side of their patients in time y save their lives. Any child between the ages ientioned, attending a country :hool may compete. Only one de of the paper must be wi itten a; the name, age, and address the writer, and the name and cation of the school which he she is attending must be ainly written at the top of the st page, The announcement the competition has been sent the superintendents of schools rural districts. No further formation can be ob'ained om the Office of Public Roads. This annormeement should be an to everyone, and all chil en will thus start on a basis equality. A Kansas Solomon.

See the sad old millionaire Passing in his motor car; Ah, how heavy is his care And how drawn his features are! What a pity he has not Anything to make him glad; Sorrowful, indeed, his lot Thinking of it makes me sad. Muffled in his warm fur coat, You may think him richly blessed, But a lump is in his throat. And a pain is in his breast; He is not compelled to work, He may ride around at will, But a thousand sorrows lurk Underneath his wa!stcoast still. All his days are dismal days. Joys may coime to you and me, But no smile of his betrays Any hint of hidden glee; Things which he cannot possess Still confront him everywhere; Hence his lack of happiness. Poor old, sad old millionaire. Warned. "I understand, sir, that you are the possessor of a swollen fortune." "Well," gruffly answered the beau tiful girl's f.ther. "what is that to you?"

I'm getting excellent control of my temper. Many of the strokes that I make with the utmost calmness now would have caused me to swear like a trooper six months ago." Man's Peculiar Ways.

Mrs. Maria Primrose, of 87 Newell ) Street, Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I had a very heavy cold which settled into 1 a chronic cough, which kept me J awake nights for fully three monthsl) and felt tired all the time because my ] rest was broken so much. The effect of taking your cod liver and iron rem edy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone. I can now get a good night's rest, and I feel much stronger in every way." It is the combined action of the medicinal elements, cods' livers, aided by the blood-making and strength creating properties of tonic iron which makes Vinol so efficient in curing chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis -at the same time building up the weakenel, run-down system. Try a bottle of Vinol, with the un derstanding that your money will e returno:1 if it does- not help you.. Pickens Drug Co., Pick'*ns. S. 0.
