Hacking Coughs
‘Granny" Chamberlain
“ For Hacking Coughs that rob you of your sleep till your sys
tem becomes so run down that you are in grave danger of Pneu
monia or Consumption, the kind that almost tear you to pieces,
that make your head ache, your throat sore and inflamed, take
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It soothes and heals the inflamed air passages, stops the tick
ling in the throat, and by its tonic effect enables you to throw
off the disease. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is quite different
from the ordinary cough medicine, for it not only soothes but
also heals, so that the effected parts are restored to a healthy
condition and the danger of a future attack is removed. I firmly
believe that it is the best and most reliable preparation ever pro
duced for coughs and colds.’’

STOMACH TROUBLE
FOR FIVE YEARS
Majority of Friends Thought Mr.
Hughes Would Die, But
One Helped Him to
Recovery.
Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: “i was down with
stomach trouble tor five (5) years, and
would have sick headache so bad, at
i
times, that 1 thought sureiy I would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any rood.
I got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought I
would die. He advised me to try
Thedfcrd’s Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, although I did not have
any confidence in it.
I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me—
tiaven't had those awful sick headaches
since 1 began using it.
1 am so thankful for what Black
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de
rangements of the stomach and liver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gentJv. yet surely It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.

Get a Statement
From The Journal?
The Journal has often said
that we have the best paying
list of subscribers of any paper]
in Arkansas. There is no joke
about this, either; it’s true as
Gospel. Usually they keep;
paid right up, and many of
them a year in advance. But;
the past two years have been
unusually hard ones, on account I
of the drouth last year and the!
overflow this year, and we find j
that quite a number of our sub
scribers have gotten behind. So;
as fast as we can get to them,!
we are mailing out statements
to all subscribers in arrears.We
hope all who can do so will re
spond promptly. The Journal
has incurred heavy expenses in i
putting in new machinery and
we have heavy obligations to i
meet that will makeitnecessary |
for us to collect as closely as
possible. Therefore we hope all
who get a statement will pay
up promptly, as you have al
ways done. A dollar or two is a
small amount but when sever
al hundred or a thousand per
sons owe us a dollar or two each
it amounts to a good deal to us.
If you get a statement and
'find an error in it, remember
you have only to call our atten
tion to it and we will gladly
‘correct it.

Farmer and Son May
Die From Knife Stabs
Prescott, December 25.—Ev- j;
ered Renfro. 19 years old,is dy- s
ing, and his father, Ed Renfro,
is in a critical condition from ;
knife stabs receved at Nubbin j
Hill School, five miles north of ?
here, last night as a result of j *
an altercation with their neigh- .
bors, Lonnie and Thomas Har
ris.
The Harris boys were fur
nishing music at a school enter
tainment, when they received
word someone wished to see
them on the outside. Outside
the building they encountered
young Renfro, and, after a
heated conversation, fighting
began. Ed. Renfro undertook
to assist his son, while witness
es tried to separate the com
batants. Lonnie Harris receiv
ed injuries about the head and
back from a club weilded, it is
said, by young young Renfro.
About 10 days ago young
Renfro attended a party at the
residence of Lonnie Harris and
was odered fom the premises,
it is alleged. They did not
meet again until last night. No
arrests have been made. The
grand jury will convene Jan.
3. All the principals are farm
ers and have never been in
trouble before.

REGISTERING LAND TITLES
Land Titles have always been
a prolific source of limitation. :
Much fraud has been practced,
expenses borne and property
lost because of tthe numerous ;
technicalities and irregularities
in our system of land titles.
Land is the basis of wealth
in this country. It was in the
beginning of civilization and it
will be in centuries to come. ,
Man occupies the land for pro
duction during his lifetime,
then it is passed on to the next
| generation. In other words ab
stracts of title show various
and sundry transactions, many
of which under the present sys
tem of transfers may involve
onsiderable expenses with dan
ger of loss of ownership.
The courts are always crowd
ed with suits both in law and
in equity involving land titlse.
Lawyers have employed tecni
calities resorted to pevious
court decisions and as a result
millions of dollars are lost ev
ery year because of our pesent
i ystem of transfers.
The time has come for the
peoples interest to be regard-i
ed in such important matter as
titles. What we need is some |
uniform method of registering
as the Torrens system. Not
only should there be such a I
|uniform safe and economical'
I system in eacvh state but the
! country as a whole should
have some such registrations
as the Torrens system.
A national rural credits sys
tem is likely soon to be passed.
This will make farm mort
gages far more numerous and
important than they have ever
been. To get the benefits of
rural credits some modification 1
i of land titl.es will be necessary
in some of the states. Why
| not introduce the Torrens sys
jtem or a modification of it in 1
this country? There will al
ways be enough ligitation for
lawyers without continuingour
present methods of land trans
fers. Safety, economy and
business require a change.—

A BANK ACCOUNT
The Extension Division of
lie University of Arkansas has
i sincere wish that every farm
er in this old state may open
:he New Year with a bank ac
count, no matter how small,
fhe extension forces of the
date and the Departments of
Agriculture are working hard
o help farmes make money
tnd they are honest in the be
ief that a bank is better than a
‘sock” or a dish in the cup
board for the savings. We
vant farmers, the small farm
ers, the forty acre farmers, and
he renters and ‘share croppers’
o get on friendly relation with
he bankers and establish
confidence and do business
vith them. The bankers and
he county agents are about the
best advisers the farmers of
\rkansas can have for 1916.
