FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1009
The farmers raise the wheat an<
the speculators raise the price.
The legislature adjourned Wed
nesday. Now what are we goinj
to cuss ? ___________
Many ft home is made unhappt
by people trying to live above
their income.
It would not take a thrash inf
machine very long to thrash ou
some men’s ideas.
‘‘New-fangled*’ things hold i
great horror for some people, ant
they would rather be wrong thai
be caught advocating somethin
new.
There are some people in tin
world who appear to have th<
brains of a mule. All they seen
to be able to do is sleep, eat am
kick. ________
Newark needs a good commer
cial club to keep our advantage
before the outside world and other
wise help to boost the town. Let’
organize. ______
As a usual thing our neighbor’
faults stand out to us like an elec
trie headlight on a locomtive, bu
it requires a searchlight to diseove
our own short comings.
The annual school election take
place tomorrow. . This is one c
the m^t important elections w
»' have, and every man intereste
y in the welfare of the public school
should turn out and vote.
The best investment any peopl
can make is in giving their child re
a good start in life. But that doe
not mean a big farm and a lot c
money. They will need som
hopefulness, much truthfulness
clean hearts and pure minds con
siderably more than money.
The legislature just closed made
appropriations amounting to more
than five million dollars. Its the
easiest thing in the world to spend
- the other fellow’s money.
Since the legislature has de
creed that Tennessee shall go dr\
on the first day of July, the editor j
? of the Commercial Appeal is en
deavoring to get Luther Burbank
to “invent” some sort of vegetable
that will produce booze,
r
-
2 The late legislature was in ses 1
sion long enough and spent money
• enough to have accomplished a
great deal of good for the state but
pratcically nothing was done. The
actual work done could have been
1 accomplished in ten days.
A Texas girl advertised for a
husband and got him. The total
: expense for advertising and wed
ding outfit, etc., was $11. Within a
year he died, leaving her an insur
ance policy for $5,000. And
yet some people say it dosen't pay
to advertise.
r .
With a little organized effort on
tlie part of our citizens to boost
Newark by lotting the outside
L world know something of our
I many advantages, this would soon
j become the best, most prosperous
r and fastest growing town in the
state. Let’s get busy and do
some boosting.

5 The editor of the Baxter Bulle
i tin wants the name “road over
1 seer’’ changed to “road worker"
and the man made to live up to
his name. Now if the Bulletin
man can devise some means where
by this can be accomplished he
will be entitled to have his name
written in the Hall of Fame.
s The most perilous hour in a
. person’s life is when he is tempt
t ed to despond. The man who
r1 loses his courage loses all. There
i is no more hope for him than for
a dead man. But it matters not
si how poor he may be, how much
f deserted by friends, how much
e pushed by circumstances, or how
J much lost to the world, if he only
s keeps up his courage, holds up
his head and works on with un
conquerable will, determined to be
5 and to do what becomes a man, all
a will be well. It is nothing on the
s outside that holds a man down,
f but what is within that makes or
e unmakes the man.

Is tt noted place for the
cure of blood diaeases,
but it costs money and
lots of it to take a course
of treatment there. It
also takes time V ery
few people can spare the
time and money for such
a course of treatment.
If you havn’t the time
and money to no to Hot
Springs, we recommend
that you take Nyal’s Hot
Springs Blood Remedy—
its the best medicine for
blood and skin diseases
that we ever sold.

Drown as a statesman some peole d<
not adore,
But think him out of place on th
statehouse floor,
And because of a question he let tin
people decide,
To kill his influence with the peoph
they’ve tried.
That he was wrong in asking tlie peo
pie is all tommyrot;
Remember he is not Johnnie, bu
Jimmie on the spot,
For he preaches, he legislates and lu
farms,
And with men of intellect he measure.'
arms.
Now all these qualities in one mar
may be scarce,
But that is not all- he is clever at
writing verse.
If he does his duty as he sees it, and
the best he eon.
We should look over mistakes-—he's
not an infallibio man.
When it takes nerve and backbone to
proclaim the right,
Brown, the poet and statesman, is in
the fight:
And critics may yell and enemies try
to bluff,
But Brown don't down until they all
holler 'nuff.
Standing under his country's flag un
furled
A rising star in the religious and po
litical world
At Little Rock with body and mind
intent
On the great mission by his people
sent.
Vou can condemn this as bad poetry
if you want to,
But all of what I have said is ju-t
about true:
For in the whole state as you pass up
and down,
It is hard to find an equal to the port
Jim Brown. —A. R. A.

COMMON SENSE
Leads most intelligent people to use only
mei/Slnes of known composition. There- !
fore It Is thai Dr. Pierce’s medicines, the
makeVe^qf wAich print every Ingredient
entcringHiio them upon the bottle wrap- ;
pers and attest its correctness under oath,
are daily growing In favor. The com- ;
position of Dr I Pierce’s medicines isopen
to evervhodvVl >r. Pe rce being desirous
of having the XTarcli light of luvestlga- |
tion turned fully upon his formula?, being
confident that tfieT>ei~ter tin-composition
oi these medicines is known the more ;
i will their great cTTraHve merits be recog- !
nDed, Being wholly made of the active
medicinal principles extracted from na
tive forest roots, by exact processes
original with Dr. Pierce, and without tho
use of a drop of alcohol, triple-refined and
chemically pure glycerine being used in
stead in extracting and preserving tho
curative virtues residing in tho roots
employed, these medicines are entirely
free from the objection of doing harm
by creating an appetite for either al
coholic beverages or habit - forming
drugs. Examine tho formula on their
bottle wrappers the same as sworn to by
Dr. Pierce, and you will find that bis
"Golden Medical Discovery,” the great,
blood-purifier, stomach tonic ami bowel
regulator tho medicine which, while not
recommended to cure consumption In Its
j advanced stagesfno medicine will do that)
yet dors cure all those catarrhal condi
tions of head and throat, weak stomach,
torpid liver and bronchial troubles, weak
lungs and hang-on-coughs, which, if neg
lected or badly treated lead up to and
finally terminate in consumption.
Take the "Golden Medical Discovery”
in time and it is not likely to disappoint
you if only you give it a thorouqh and
fair trial. Don't expect mlraefes. It
won’t do supernatural things. You must
exercise your patience and persevere In its
use for a reasonable length of time to get
: Its full benefits. The Ingredients of which
Dr. Pierce’s medicines are composed have
the unqualified endorsement of scores of j
medical leaders—better than any amount
of lay, or non-professional, testimonials.
They are not given owav to be experi
mented with but are sold ny all dealers in
medicines at reasonable prices.
