SIMPLE SIMON.
Hind Your Own Affairs.
It is somewhat difficult for some peo
ple to mind their own affairs. Some
how or other, they seem ill at ease if
their noses are not in other people's
business up to the hilt, says the St.
Marys Gazette. They are never so
happy as when they are munching over
the faults and shortcoming of their
neighbors. They seize upon a juicy
bit of scandal as does a hungry hen
hawk upon a green gosling. They
seem supremely blest when they can
twist and distort a story or rumor to
such an extent that it savors badly and
leaves a dark brown taste in the mouth.
Their mission seems to be fulfilled
whenever they succeed in branding the
character and blitheing the name of
their victims.
There is not a community but that is
cursed with a crew of these pestiferous
busy bodies, and when they set their
venomous tongues into action the good
citizen has need to tremble. When a
poisonous reptile crosses your pathway
you have the opportunity to beat it in
to the dust with a club. No such satis
faction is afforded however, when your
life is poisoned by some foul slander,
for it is usually a difficult matter to
trace the story to its origin. Hut when
this can be done the offenders should
be brought to their senses in a manner
that will inspire them with a whole
some respect for the name and reputa
tion of their fellowmen.

CAM BR ON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1903.
Why Americans Have Small Familes.
Harper's Weekly.
The great thing that keeps the size of
American families down ia social and
pecuniary ambition. There are a few
thrifty parents in the land farmers,
miners, mill workers and the like-who
look upon children as a potential source
of income, and raise a good many be
cause their keep costs little, and their
labor is valuable. We don't approve of
persons of that way of thinking. Our
American feeling is that the parents
should work for the children, but not
the children for the parents, except in
cases of special necessity. Almost all
of us want our children to be better off
than we are ourselves. We would
rather have two children and give them
what we consider special advantages of
nurture and education than have live
and be unable to do for all of them
what we want done. We are impatient
of the common lot. Uuless our chil
dren can rise above it, we think it a
doubtful advantago to have secured
them an entry in this world.
Now that is not altogether a bad
characteristic. It makes progress to a
certain extent, but we carry it too far.
We are too prudent, too selfish, for
both ourselves and our offspring. It
is by no means the children who have
the most "advantages" that do best in
the world, but those, rather, who are
born with the best brains and bodies,
and are hardest prodded by the spur of
necessity. For the sake of pampering
two children we forfeit the chance of
drawing a great prize among the three
others that we might have and don't.
"Editing a Newspaper."
An Indian Territory editor very truth
fully says: "Editing a newspaper is a
pleasant business—lf you can stand it.
"If it contains many advertisements
a subsoriber complains that they take
up too much space. If there is lack of
advertising, it is unpopular and the
people won't have it.
"If we attend church regularly, they
say we go for effect. If we stay away
from church, they say we are monstrous
ly heathenish.
"If we accept an invitation to a wed
ding, they say we are only invited to
'write it up.'
"If we goto the opera house, they say
we goon free tickets.
"If we are seen upon the streets too
often, they say we neglect our business.
If we avoid going on the street, they
say we don't hustle around after the
news
"If we publish a man who has brought
disgrace upon his family, the friends of
the family never forgive us. If we, out
of goodness ot heart, decline to say any
thing on the subject, the man's enemies
are disappointed and we are branded as
white-livered cowards "
How often you hear it remarked: "It's
only a cold," and a few days later learn
that the man is on his back with pneu
monia. This is of such common occur
rence that a cold, however slight, should
not be disregarded. Chamberlain's Coujih
Remedy counteracts any tendency toward
pneumonia. It always enres and is pleas
ant to take. Sold by L. Tagsjarl.
The man who says there is no truth in
the world has mistaken a mirror for the
universe.
Wakeful Children.
For a long time the two year old child
of Mr. I'. L. McPhcrson, .">!) X. Tenth
St.. Harri-burg, Pa„ would sleep but two
or three hours in the early part of the
night, which made it very hard for her
parents. Her mother coucluded that the
child had stomach trouble, and gave her
half of one of Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets, which quieted her stomach
and she slept the whole night through.
Two boxes of these Tablets have effected
a permanent cure and she is now well and
strong. For sale by L. Taggart.
Kverything comes to the man who
waits—aud keeps on walking.
If it's a bilious attack, take Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets and a
quick recovery is certain. For sale by
I- Taggart.
The losses of childhood are the gains
ot manhood.
READ IT THROUGH.
'Twould Sflcil This Story to Tell It in the
Headlines.
To use an eighteenth century phrase,
this is an "o'er true tale." Having hap
pened in a small Virginia town iu the
winter of 1902, it is a story very much of
the present. I'p to a short time ago Mrs.
John E. Harmon of Mclfa Station, Va .
had no personal knowledge of the rare
curative properties of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. "Last January," she
says, "my baby took a dreadful cold and
at one time I feared she would have
pneumonia, but one of my neighbors told
me how this remedy had cured Iter little
hoy and I began giving it to my baby at
once and it soon cured her. I heartily
thank the manufacturers of Chamberlain's
Caugh Remedy for placing so great a
cure within my reach. I cannot rouniu
mend it ton highly or say too much in
its favor. I hope all *ho read tin- will J
try and be convinced as I was. ' For sale
by L. Taggart.

Get Children
Started Right
Measles, scarlet fever, mumps
and whooping cough are univer
sally prevalent.
With all these, the disease itself
is often trivial, but the after effects
are very serious.
Close observers say that one
half the people suffer from eye
trouble (result of measles), or
bronchial, ear, or kidney trouble
(result of other diseases of child
hood).
Now a child in robust health
will throw off these diseases. A
weak ailing child will probably
suffer all its life.
We have just the medicine for
puny, ailing children. It is Vinol.
It is pleasant to take, it is free
from dangerous drugs, it is nour
ishing and gently tonic, it helps the
food to digest and gives strength.
It has been used in this town
with great success when children
were slow in getting over whoop
ing cough and measles.
It seems to give them a start,
and they become bright and
healthy. Used with Vinlax, the
bowel regulator, it is safe and sure,
both for ailing children and bur
dened mothers. Take home a
bottle on our guarantee of money
back if it's not good. Don't let
your little ones remain weak and
ailing.
