3? in quality when put into a prescription makes a very
® big difference in the results expected by the doctor,
¿g Get the best and quickest results by bringing your
¿g prescription to WILL MARR'S drug store, the

of our service. Here's a drug business
built on integrity, merit and industry,

by day. This year's business will be the

Cascasweet is for babies and

drugs. Sold by Will Marr.
A dearth of local news often
leads to murmurs on the part of
those who prize local news above
all else, and it is not all the fault
of the publisher. Any live news-
paper will give all the local news
that comes to its knowledge, and
when the local department is
short you should not rail at the
editor, but remember you might
have committed suicide, got mar-
ried. whipped your neighbor,!
stole a horse, robbed a chicken
roost or done hundreds of other
things to make local news. If a.
newspaper should publish all the|
current gossip or the hints at the (
best people of the town, it would
be ostracised and the editor
horsewhipped or burned at the
stake. Think a minute of the
mean things you sav about your
neighbor and imagine how it
would look in print. Don't criti-
cise a newspaper for what it does
print, but give it credit for what
it don't print. A newspaper
that contained one-half the non-
sense current among the best
people would be considered unfit
to read.—Richland Springs K ve-
Witness.
