To the Editor: As I have tried
to find the definition ot moron In
several unabridged dictionaries
without success, I will offer the
meaning as 'drawn by inferenco
and otherwise from The Capital
Journal editorials. It applies to
one who believes in the divinity of
Christ; to one who belongs to any
secret society other than tho
Knights of Columbus; to one who

one who is not addicted to the use
of tobacco, wins and slop made ot
hops, especially Oiegon hops; to
one who does not profane para

iiucnt and vituperate language
to one who Is at variance with a
vulgar minority, such as the wine

The definition of moron so far

THAT JIANGS ON
Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble. You con stop them
now with, Creomuhion, an emulsified
creosote that is pleasant to take. Creo
mulsion is a new medical discovery
with two-fold action; it soothes and
heals the inflamed membranes and in
hibits germ growth.
Of all known drugs, creosote is rec
ognized by high medical authorities as
one of the greatest healing agencies for
Jiersistent coughs and colds and other
orms of throat troubles. Creomul&ion
contains, in addition to creosote, other
healing elements which soothe and besl
the infected membranes and stop the
irritation and inflammation, while the
creosote goes on to the stomach, is ab
sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
of the trouble and checks the growth
of the germs.
Creomulsion Is guaranteed satisfac
tory in the treatment of persistent
coughs and colds, bronchial asthma,
bronchitis and other forms of respira
tory diseases, and is excellent for build
ing up the system after colds or flu.
Money refunded if any cough or cold is
not relieved liter taking according to
directions. Ask your druggist. Creo
