"I want to tell you what wonderful benefit I have re-
ceived from the use of Thedfcrd’s Black-Draught” writes
Mrs Syl vania Woods of Clifton Mills Ky -
“It certainly has no equal for la grippe bad colds
liver and stomach troubles I firmly believe Black-Draught
saved my little girl 's life When she had the measles
they went in on her but one good dose of Thedford’s
Black-Draught made them break out and she lias had no
more trouble I shall never be without
THEDPORDTS
in my home” For constipation indigestion headache dizzi-
ness malaria chills and fever biliousness and 'all similar
ailments Thedford’s Black-Draught has proved itself a safe
reliable gentle and valuable remedy’
If you suffer from any of these complaints try Black-

DRIVER TO BE HERE
NOTED CHAUTAUQUA LECTURER
TO SPEAK AT OUR ASSEMBLY
THIS SEASON
A STUDENT OF WORLD PROBLEMS
The Successor of Frank Crane at the
Famous People’s Church in Chicago
— Mrs Driver Gives Intimate
Pen Picture
Chautauqua' patrons the country
aver are quite familiar with the work
of Dr J M Driver the noted lecturer
whose voice has been heard perhaps
on as many Chautauqua platforms as
that of any living man and whose
presence on any Chautauqua program
is looked forward to as an event of
great interest
Dr Driver is a' truly great mah who
has won the position he holds as schol-
ar and lecturer He has filled many
important positions and was the pop-
ular successor of Drs II Wi Thomas
and Frank Crane at the famous Peo-
ple’s church of Chicago McVlcker’s
theatre During the memorable days
of his pastorate vast throngs assem-
bled every Sunday morning
He studied in Boston Leipsie and
Home and has visited and observed
conditions in every European- country
and in the four corners of the earth '
His books have been read' hr all
English-speaking countries he' has be-
come famous as a composer but his
best-known work is that of a lecturer
His lecture subjects cover - a vast
range of human interests and have
held the close attention of the mil-
lions of Lyceum and Chautauqua pat-
rons from one end of the country to
the other
Dr Driver is a Methodist preacher
in regular and good standing and has
been continuously since 1887 His
home is in Chicago but be is known
the world over and resides every-
where -
All that has been written and said
about Dr Driver has come from the
outside and is the public’s view of
him Sdmeone has said that “if you
would know a man ask hi3 wife”
Dr Driver’s wife has written a char-
acterization of her husband which
presents a view of tho man which is
intensely interesting
Mrs Driver Writes
Think of the strain of wifehood "
with a man who doesn’t grow old
or get tired and scarcely sleeps— -just
works works works studies
- studies 'studies wlio fears naught
reads everything and forgets noth-
ing who goes everywhere and
knows everybody
Mrs Roosevelt silently stares at
"Teddy" with a look that seems
to ask: “Well what next?” Here '
too At hotel theatre opera so-
clal fete especially her In Chi-
cago what a “confusion of
tongues!” But Dr Driver is per-
fectly at home in ten languages!
It’s all so bewildering upsetting
sometimes I’m embarrassed but
oftener I’m scared and want to '
run
Often at social gatherings the
talk is so varied but I’m never
afraid of my husband making a
faux pas History biography
politics science philosophy the-
ology war art letters — as Mr
Opio Rend says: “Dr Driver fair
ly bulges out with vital data on
all subjects” and a well-known
bureau manager speaking of Dr
Driver said: "He knov3 so much
't gives me the headache” Weil
i often gives me the heartache
My husband’s a man of moods
and tences- perhaps I should say
intense s The most hlghly-geared-and-tunod
human being I ever saw
nor can age wither him or custom
l:!s luilnit o “variety What

Dr Driver speaks here on the sec-
end night of tfie Chautauqua Ilia
subject will be “Watchman What of
the Night” a great new lecture
If you could buy enthusiasm in-

NOTED TENNESSEEAN TOT- LEC-
TURE AT OUR CHAUTAUQUA
ON THE OPENING NIGHTA
WILL GIVE ” THE HORSE RACE”
His Masterpiece— Holcomb Is Sbn-in
Law ': of ’ Late -' Sam Jones— la -Famous
as Orator and Inspir-
r atlonal Lecturer
Walt Holcomb of Tennessee is go
Ing to lecture at the Chautauqua' oa
the first night
He Is going to give his masterpiece
“The Horse Race”
This promises to be one of the best
attractions of the entire assembly
which is saying a good deal as some
of the greatest platform aptists are
scheduled to appear during the Chau-
tauqua - -
Mr Holcomb has lectured repeated-
ly for the greatest Chautauquas In the’
South and the Central West His
“Horse' Race” lecture is absolutely'
uuique and could not have been creat-
ed by any- one save the original Walt
Holcomb who ha3 done many big
things- in his line and has done them
in a way that no one else could havo
dbne them
To- be a great speaker a man' must-
have a reputation that Is far-reaching
Mr Holcomb ha3 won for himself a
place on the platform as one of its
national characters having spokon
i I skim
from the Atlantic to the Pacific and
from the Great Lakes to the Gulf be-
fore the big Chautauqua Assemblies
For several' years Holcomb was- as-
sociated with the Rev Sam Pf Jones
the world-famous evangelist ard has
preached along by his side in the
greatest H American' cities: He was
with Mr Jones in Oklahoma Gity in
his last meeting and the great? Sam
Jones died in Mr Holcomb’s arms
Since then he has married the young-
est daughter of the great evangelist
and has written his biography ' ' v
Walt Holcomb’s lectures abound In
illustrations and anecdotes There la
plenty of fun and wit homely philoso-
phy and sublime truth: - ' v
His “Horse Race” lecture outdraws
a Country Fair and is one of the best
things on the platform It is-so "dif-
ferent” and that is why it Is- so good
Remember the place and the time
and meet us at Holcomb’S “Horse
Race” which will be at the Chautau-
qua on the night of the opening day
THE CHAUTAUQUA BUit-DS COM
MUNITIESv f
The fundamental idea at the local
Chautauqua is “Community Service”
The financial guarantee necessary to
l-ring it hare is shouldered by a num-
ber of our public spirited citizens who
have the interest of the whole com-
munity at heart They- are acting un-
selfishly without hope of profit — safe
in the consciousness-of having served
the community Thpy believe in the
Chautauqua in it's- possibilities for
good in the inspiration of it3 jnes-
sage ia the solid and uncomprofiiis-
ing front it presents against all the in-
fluences -which deface the community
and renders practical common sense
assistance to every good cause '
Believing in it the local Committee
have guaranteed the finances neces-
sary to bring It here and they ask only
that the community will come to 'the
front for refreshment and inspiration
Recognizing that that vAk:ii biiilds up
the community as a whole helps every
individual in that community the
guarantors have written a motto “FOR
THE COMMON GOOD” above the
Chautauqua and appealed to the pa-
triotism of every citizen of the com-
munity for a hearty and generous mor-
al and financial support
Community development is one of
the principal items in mind in build-
ing the Chautauqua program Each
community' should develop so that it
will be a good place in which to live
— so good a place 'lu fact that the pco-
plo now living there and their children
will wl3h to stay Then the tpwn will
not be among those reported as “los-
ing in population" when the next cen-
sus is taken All this has to do with
tho commercial value of a Chautauqua
to a town and ‘does not take Into ac-
count its educational religious ethi-
cal and cultural value which com-
prise its greatest benefit to the Corn-
munity
