Don’t Worry.
This is easier said than done, yet it may
be of some help to consider the matter. If
ttie cause is something over which you
have no control it is obvious that worry
ing will not help the matter in the least.
On the oilier hand, if within your control
you have only to act. When you have a
cold and fear an attack of pneumonia,
buy a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough
Kemedy and use it judiciously and all
Came for worry as to the outcome will
quickly disappear. There Is no danger of
pneumonia when it is used. For sale by J.
T. Sanders

Saved From Terrible Death.
The family of Mrs. M L. Bobbitt, of
Bargerton, Tenn., saw her dying and
were powerless to save her. '1 lie most
skilitul physicians and everv remedy used
failed, while consumption was s o.vly but
surely taking her life. In this terrible
fiour Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption turned despair into joy. The
tirst bottle brought immediate relief and
its continued use completely cured her.
It's the must certain cure in the* world for
all throat and lung troubles. Guaranteed
bottles 50c and $1.00. Trial bottles teee

talking to another negro, and demand

said he couldn’t pay the money then
as l,e didn’t have it about him. and
finally started to walk tuvav. s tying to
Mai .uf, ‘ I’ll see you later.” But Ma

further and grabbed Potts by the lapel
of li'sot at, and the first round began.
Malouf's two btothers, Mike and John,
rushed m to the scene and two or three
clubs were 1 rid about Potts in quite a
