Entered at the post office at Newark,
Ark., as second class mail.
And old Big Bottom remains the
banner Democratic township of
Independence county.
If our Arkansas farmers will di
versify their crops next year with
wheat, hogs, cattle and other food
crops, the war will have taught us
a much-needed and valuable les
son. _
It seems from the election re
turns that a good many of the
folks in Arkansas believe their
public servants should let the peo
ple know something about how
their money is being spent.
Beef cattle and hogs are bring
ing fancy prices and Chicago
packers declare that it will be a
number of years at least before
prices decline very much. High
prices for live stock should prove
a strong incentive to the farmers
to devote more attention to stock
raising, and there is no section of
the entire country more favorably
adapted to stock raising than
right here in Independence
county. _
Newark will rebuild her burned
buildings and will continue to
grow and prosper. Reverses
must come to all, whether towns
or individuals, but those who do
not lose their courage and keep
industriously pushing onward,
must ultimately succeed. Newark
and her people are not quitters
and, while the recent tire is a
severe blow to the town, Newark
will rise from the ashes and go
heroically to work to rebuild, big
ger and better than ever.
Statistics show that there are
approximately 1,500,000 foreigners
natives of the warring European
nations, living in the United
States, who have not become nat
uralized as American citizens, and
are subject to military duty in
their native land. These unnatur
alized foreigners over 21 years old
are divided as follows among the
warring nations: Great Britain and
Ireland, 197,626; Canada, 150,718;
Russia, 418,428; France, 16,605;
Belgium, 8,691; Germany, 127,104;
and Austria Hungary, 525,859.

Now is an excellent time for the
farmers of Independence county
to try some other crop besides cot
ton. From present indications:
wheat will he worth more for the
next year than it has been in many
years. The farmer who has land
that will grow wheat will make
no mistake in planting wheat this
fall.
MORE GREAT REVIVALS
Wilson, Sept. 15.—I have just
noticed in The Journal accounts
of the great revivals held at Oil
Trough, Paroquet and on the Min- ■
turn charge. I am delighted to
know that the revival fires are
still burning in a number of places.
1 am just back from Clear Lake
where I*assisted Bro. W. M. Dun
can in one of the greatest revivals
I have ever known. We ran two
weeks, closing last Sunday with
three services and 22 conversions
that day, making a total for the
meeting of 140, 75 of whom joined
the Methodist church and 50 join
ed the Baptist church. The meet
ing was held in the Baptist church
the Methodist having no building
of their own. Young men, old j
men, profane men, drunkards,men
who had been enemies, wept un
der the conviction of the Holy
Spirit, came to the altar, were hap
pily converted and became friends.
The Lord is wonderfully manifest
ing His name in some parts of
Mississippi county. There have
been more than 400 conversions
on the Blytheville and Barfield
circuits. At the three churches on
the Barfield circuit there have
been 195 conversions. I am sorry
I cannot say so much for my own
church, but conditions here are
such that I have not been able to
have a revival. I am still praying
that the people here may be arous
ed from their lethargy and world
liness and come to a knowledge of
the Truth as it is in Christ Jesus
our Lord. The Journal is a wel
come guest every week for 1 love
' the people it represents. With
I kindest regards, I am,
Yours very truly,
A. H. Dulaney.

DON’T HURT YOUR
LIVER WITH CALOMEL
-—.—
When your liver becomes torpid j
and sluggish, you can take calomel;
and whip it into action, but the :
calomel will leave your body weak
er and sicker than ever. Calomel
is a very powerful drug, a form of
mercury, and need never be used
because there is a perfect remedy
tj take the place of calomel, that
has all of calomel’s good medicinal
effects with none of its dangerous
and uncertain follow-ups. Its name
is Dodson’s Liver Tone.
The Newark Drug Co. sells
Dodson’s Liver Tone with the
guarantee that if you don’t find
that it treats you much better than
calomel, they will give you your
money back with a smile. Dodson’s
Liver Tone is a true tonic for the
liver, purely vegetable, and with
such a pleasant taste that it is no
trouble to get children to take it.
It is absolutely impossible for it to
do anyone any harm. (Adv.)
