John Wells Todd Wins Honors.
Mr. John Wells Todd, Jr., member
of the junior class at Davidson College,

members to represent his class in the

commencement week. This honor was

same manner three members of the
senior class were chosen for the annual
contest, and the winner of the jointv
debate will receive a handsome medal.
The subject of Mr. Todd's oration was
"Penalties of Progress."
Tickling or dry coughs will quickly
loosen wnen using Dr. Shoop's Cough
Cure. And it is so thoroughly
harmless that Dr. Shoop tells mothers
to use nothing else, even with very
Jroung babies. The wholesome green
eaves and tender stems of a lung-heal
ing mountainous shrub furnish the
curative properties to Dr. Shoop's
Cough Cure. It calms the cough and
heals the sensitive bronchial mem
branes. No opium, no chloroform,
nothing harsh used to injure or sup
press. Demand Dr. Shoop's. Take no
other. Palmetto Drug Co.
