P If You Are a mlK You Hut* a Homo to bo Proud of? Swrtf _ You set a good example to your fellow citizens by keeping your home and everything pertaining thereto in good condition. Your wife never has to apologize for her furniture, and neither she nor the children ever have to stay home from church because they haven't R clothes tit to wear. P The weeds are not choking the life out of the vegetables in the garden, and your front lawn isn't littered with trash. The sidewalk in front of your premises is kept clean. You take a good daily newspaper and a few of the best magazines, that you and your family may keep posted An tkn '' K i # ? / V* nnfawl/i VII MIV ISlft Vitiligo UA UIC VUbOlUV world. You Stand by Your Home Nov spaper You are a paid-up subscriber to |l your newspaper, not oniy for the r news ^contains but because it is the general medium for the expression of community ideas, and the editor is a BOOSTER after your own heart. If you are in business you are a liberal advertiser, not merely for the sake of the business it brings you, but because .you realize these newspaper men are constantly doing a lot of good things for the town for which they wouldn't let you compensate them in any other way. You Patronise Your Home Merchant* rYou patronize your town mcr chants, not nnly through convenience, but becausf. they are your neighbors and fellow-citizens, and when you spend your money with them you know it will circulate around and probably come back to you again. You Fnrnttramm Wnrlkv Fn?apn*>!ane Se of your citizens is starting n terprise you are going to give fie encouragement you can, JVnow what such encourage: lack of it, meant to you yiu were getting your own land for Clean, Competent, iblic OFciala our town and county officials >d men and doing the square ou are going to stand by them [p keep them in office. If they ; the right sort, you are going them out and see to it they are it. re on Good Terms with Your inker ou are a young man you arc to start a savings account in ocal bank, because you will that in the business world ies at the very foundation of a tful business career, and no earth can help you so much as cal banker if he has confidence r ability and faith in your honill Bank at Home. ou are in business you will deonr mnnpv in vnnr t Aurn Hon I [Kther than in a distant city bank, Because then it will be used in finan ng and upbuilding local enterprises jhat will be right under your eye, and L ou will want to boost your local panks, because you know the best thermometer of a community's commercial prosperity is shown in the monthly bank statements. You Are a Friend of m School Man. If the head of your public school is conscientiously endeavoring to mould character, as well as train the mind. Br the boys and girls of your town, you are going to let him know you arc his friend, will see to it that his compensation is sufficient to enable him to live decently, and that he gets it when due. You Will Visit the School House You are going to inspect the school house occasionally, even though you are not on the school board, and if you find it unsanitary you are going "to make a Home howl," because the health of your children and of every other parent's children is being jeopardized. If the accommodations are not amply sufficient, some children are being prevented from getting an education, and you are going to be I their champion and fight for the needed improvements, even though you know it will < fllro on ovtm ? I two out of your pocket for taxes. You Will Fight for the "Kids" You are going to see to it that every boy in your town, rich or poor, EVER SALIVATED BY CALOMELT HORRIBLE. Calomel Is Quicksilver and Acts Like l Dynamite on Your Liver. Calomel loses you a day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones snd should never be put into your system. When you feel bttious, sluggish, constipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for |H calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, nnd can not salivate! Don't take calomel! It r.iakee you sick the next day; it loses you a day's i work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightena you right up and you feel great. Real Booster is given a fair, square chance to become h decent man and a useful citizen. Eighty-five per cent of the prisoners in your county jail are illiterate It is cheaper to give a boy a good education and start him on the read to decency and success than to allow him to remain an illiterate, become a criminal and execute him for his crime. You Have a Sincere Respect for the Church Even if you are not a member of a church, you are going to recognize it as one of the greatest institutions for promoting the religous and moral welfare of your town, and you are going to attend service at least occasionally out of respect for the minister, and because you want him to know you endorse the things he stands for in your community. You Will Back Up the Chautauqua You are going to be strong for the Chautauqua because you realize that unless your young people, as well as your older people, are provided the opportunity for this sort of wholesome, clean and elevating recreation and entertainment, people with lower ideals are going to bring in amusements of the sort that tend to demoralize and degrade. You Believe in "Pulling Together" You will be a leader in promoting community co-operation, which is simply "geting together and pulling together," realizing that a dozen determined business men who will lay ?.?lr . ? umuc ?c-ii-interest ana worK together for the general good will "put. your town on the map" and keep it there. You Radiate Enthusiasm and Inspire Progress. Your town may be very small, but if it has a few citizens of your Caliber it is bound to grow, for your young men and young women will realize that in the process of community development, in the making of better schools, in the building of better roads, in introducing better methods of agriculture, in improving the facilities for merchandising, and in the launching of new manufacturing enterprises there will be abundant opportunity for them to achieve,1 within the very sight of the old "Home, Sweet Home," j.ust as splendid and successful careers as any great city in this country could offer them. You Have a Warm Heart and V/ise Head. Your fellow-men always extend you the open hand, for you never thrust at them the closed fist. # The corners of your mouth turn up instead of down. You radiate cordiality because your heart is warm. The young men come to you for counsej concerning their plans. The unfortunate come to you for a solution of their problems. The little children love you because you understand them. You Are a Citizen Any Town Will Be Proud of. Finally, my dear Booster, you will never grow old, for the Fountain of Eternal Youth is in the heart of every Booster. You will not have to die in order to enter Heaven, for you have already built your home in the very center of it.

LIFT YOUR CORNS OFF WITH FINGERS Tells how to loosen tender corn or callus so it lifts out without pain. You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once a week invited an awful death from locwjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authorityto use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn or callus the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn or callus, root and all, lifts off with the fingers. Freezone dries the moment is is applied, and simply shrivels the corn or callus without inflaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost ?ci/ utile ni any ui me arug stores, but will positively rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callus. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you. 2-Adv. Catarrh Cannot Be Cured With LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease.

Length, about six and one-fourth inches. Tho heavily spotted breast wth heavy central blotch 1b characteristic. Range: Breeds In the United States (except the South Atlantic and gulf states), southern Canada, southern Alaska, and Mexico; wlntera In Alaska and most of the United States southward. . I Habits and economlo status: Like' the familiar little "chippy," the song sparrow is one of our most domestic species, and builds its nest In hedges or In garden shrubbery close to houses, whenever It is reasonably safe from the house oat, which, however, takes heavy toll of tho nestings. It lit a true harbinger of spring, and its-delightful little song' is trilled forth from the top of some green shrub in early March and April, befor/s mos't of our other songsters have thought of leaving tho Bunny South. Song sparrows vary much lit habits, as well as in size and coloration. Some forms live along streams bordered by deserts, others in , (ImhnritH 1 - * .vtiuuo, ^luma un rucKy oarren hillsides, and still others irt rich, fertile valleys. With such a variety, of habitat. tl\e food of the species naturally Varies considerably. About three-fourths of Its diet consists of the seeds of noxious weeds and onefourth'of insects. .Of thoso, beetles, especially wcetils, constitute 'the major portion. Ants, wd&ps, bugs (including the black olive 'scale),, and caterpillars are also eaten. Grasshoppers are taken .by the eastern bfrds, but not by the western ones. I BULLOCK'S ORIOLE Icterus bullock! Length, about eight Inches. Our only oriole with top of head and throat black and cheeks orange. Range: Breeds from South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas to the Pacitlo ocean and from southern Canada to northern Mexico; winters In Mexico. Habits and economic status: In the West this bird takes the place occupied In the East by the Baltimore oriole. In food, nesting habits, and song the birds are similar. Both are migratory and remain on their summer rango only some five or six months. They take kindly to orchards, gardens, and the vicinity of farm buildings and often live in villages and city parks. Their diet is largely made up of insects that Infest orchards and gardens. When fruit trees are in bloom they are constantly busy among the blossoms and save many of them from destruction. In the food of Bullock's oriolo beotles amount to 35 per cent and nearly all are harmful. Many of these are weevils, some of which live upon acorns and other nuts. Ants and wasps amount to 15 per cent of the diet. The black olive scale was iuuiiu in 40 or tno 102 stomachs examined. Caterpillars, with a few mothe and pupae, are tho largest Item of food and amount to over 41 per cent. Among theso were codllng-moth larvae. The vegetable food is practically all fruit (19 per cent) and In cherry season consists largely of that fruit. Eating small fruits is the bird'a worst trait, but It will do harm In thla way only when very numerous. THE THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION OF THE NEW YORK WORLD The value and need of a newspaper in tho household wa? never greater than at the present. The great war in Europe is now half way into its third year, and, whether peace be at hand or yet be far off, it and the events to follow it are sure to be of absorbing interest for many a month to come. These are world-shaking affairs, in which the United States, willing or unwilling, is compelled to take a part. No intelligent person can ignore such issues.

I generally was able to get around enough t<? get dinner, though 1 could never get breakfast. I "One of my legs was badly drawn, and 1 nurt all over and suffered torture. I had rheumatism badly for threp or four years, but I had been in bad health for about nine years, when [.began to take Tanlac. I was also troubled a great deal with indigestion and headaches, and my nerves were almost gone to pieces. I could not sleep well, and my system was weak and run down and I felt tired out all the time. "The Tanlac soon got me where 1 could do mv housework, for it quickly relieved the rheumatism and that drawing in my leg. I am strong and feel >vcll now. Tanlac certainly is a fine mcdicinp for rheumatism I think. 1 very seldom ever feel a pain in my bftdy now, so well did Tanlac break up the rheumUJtism. "The medicine also built up my system in general, gave me a fine appetite and relieved the indigestion. I could not cat anything hardly when I began taking Tanlac, but it got me so 1 could eat anything I wanted. 1 can sleep well now and the Tanlac relieved the nervousness. I sure do reel fine, and the improvement in my condition is due to Tanlac." l..~ tk. If x If -J'-* ? ? imiiut, lih' iimsitr mi'uicinu, IS SOKl by The Chesterfield Drug Co., Chesterfield, S. C.; T. E.
