The Republicans have selected a
“bird” for their township committee
man from ( ushuuin tov*nship. His
name is Wren.
Good crops this year will do more
for the prosperity of the country
than all the politicans under the sun.
Real prosperity comes through the pro
duction of somethin# necessary to the
sustenance and comfort of the world,
and not through the explosion of hot
air bombs.
There are two little words, simple
enough in themselves, that introduce
untold trouble in the world and are
responsible for more gossip, scandal
and harm than any two words in the
English language. These two words
are nothing more than, "They say."
They have done more to ruin repu
tations than all other things. If you
never quote what "they say" you may
1 >e quite certain you are not a gossip.
.Tim Buck, an Americanized Greek,
was lined $50 in police court at Little
Rock a few days ago for beating his
wife, and the Democrat speaks of it as
a heavy tine. Heavy indeed! The
minimum punishment for the brute
who beats his wife ought to Ik* a hun
dred dollar fine and three months in
jail on a bread and water diet.
A perfect town is that in which you
see the farmer patronizing the home
merchants, the laborers spending the
money they earn with their own trades
men, and all animated by a spirit that
will not purchase articles abroad if
they can be bought at home. The
spirit of reciprocity between all citi
zens of a town will always result in
making the town a letter one to do
business in, and therefore more pros
perous.
That young man who thinks he is
poor l>eeause he has no bank account,
little understands the value of God’s
free gift of health and strength: little
appreciates the fact that the brightest
and best menoftheworldareself-made,
and come to the notice of the world
from just such beginnings. Not by
idly moaning that they are poor, but
by going cheerfully to work, perfecting
themselves in their chosen persuits
and becoming so useful to those about
them that their services are always in
demand, whether it be on the platform,
in the shop, the office or the field, for
all are honorable alike.

DANGER OF PAPER BORROWING
Here is the latest story on the man
who is too stingy to take his home
paper.
”A man who was too economical to
take the paper sent his little hoy to
I borrow the copy taken by his neighbor.
In his haste the boy ran over a *5
stand of bees, and in ten minutes look
ed like a warty summer squash. His
cries reached his father, who ran to
his assistance, and failing to notice
, the barbed wire fence, ran into that,
breaking it down, cutting a handful
of flesh from his anatomy, and ruin
ing a *4 pair of pants. The old cow
took advantage of the gap and got
into the corn field, and killed herself
eating green corn. Hearing the racket,
the wife ran, upseting a foui -gallon
churn of rich cream into a basket of
chickens, drowning the whole flock. In
the hurry she dropped a $7 set of false
teeth. The baby, left alone, crawled
through tlr* spilled milk and into the
pa lor. ruining a bran new $20 carpet.
During the excitement the oldest
daughter ran away with the hired man;
the dog broke up eleven setting hens,
and the calves got out and chewed the
tails off of four fine shirts.”
PLEASANT HILL POINTERS
Some corn has Ween planted but most i
of that will have to be planted again, j
Miss Tilda Kirk of Cushman has!

The past few days have been record j
breakers, at least Dota was higher I
than it has been since 1882. The land j
is badly washed and fences gone down
the creek, so fence making is the or
der of the day.

PHYSICIANS DISCUSS
NEW THEORY
Cooper’s Views of Human Stomach Noted
by Medical Men.
A recent article In the New Orleans
Item gives an account of the effect
upon the medical profession of that
city with regard to L. T. Cooper’s the
ory that the human stomach is respon
sible for most ill health. The article
is as follows:
"The astonishing sale of Cooper’s
preparation in this city has now reach
ed such immense figures that the medi
cal fraternity have been forced into
open discussion of the man s theories
and medicines.
"The physicians seem to be divided
with regard to the young man’s suc
cess in New Orleans—some being will
ing to credit him for what he has ac
complished, while others assert that
the interest he has aroused is but a
passing fad that will die out as quickly
as it has sprung up.
"In a statement recently obtained
from a well-known physician of this
city, the position of those in favor of
Cooper is well voiced. The doctor said:
‘I am not a believer in proprietary
medicines, but I must admit that some
of the facts recently brought to myr
attention concerning this Cooper medi
cine have gone far toward removing
the prejudice I had formed against,
them when I first heard of Cooper’s
new ideas and medicines.
“ 'Numbers of my patients whom E
have treated for chronic liver, kidney
and stomach troubles have met me and
stated that Cooper’s medicine has ac
complished wonderful results for
them. I notice particularly in cases
of stomach trouble that the man has
relieved several cases that were off
years’ standing and proved very ob
stinate to treatment
“ ‘I do not wish to stand in the wayr
of something that may be for the pub
lic good, simply through professional,
prejudice, and I am inclined to giv«*
Cooper and his preparations credit aa
deserving to some extent the popular
demonstration that has been accorded,
them in this city.’"
We sell the Cooper medicines. They
are Droving remarkably successful
throughout tho entire United States.
