Upwards of forty persons were

Dr. Miller recently moved here

II. F. Mayhan, of Ijogan town
ship, was in town Saturday. In
speaking of the condition of crops
he remarked to The Journal man
that he had eaten new Irish pota
toes this spring on the 7th of May
and said they were as large as hen
eggs. This is the earliest we have
heard of.
Henry McPherson, of Magness,
was in town Saturday and report
that tlie people of Sulphur Kook,
Newark, Magness and Balesvilh

the relief of his son-in-law. Thos.
MeClean, whose house and con
tents about two miles northwest of
Sulphur Rock, was destroyed by

Mr, McPherson on behalf of him
self and son-in-law desires The
Journal to express his sincere

Mr. MeClean and family in theii

A Dream of the Past.
Ivlitor The .Journal.
It is and always was my nature
to ramble in the woods arid mead
^ ows and climb hills at this season
of the year to see and behold the
beauties and Wonders of nature.
Nothing is more interesting, won
derful and beautiful than to take n
ramble at this time of the year.
The nice, soft, velvety grass under
i our feet as natures carpet, the
lovely scenery over our heads, ol
tall trees clothed with their new
spring suit', the warble of the
birds that visit us in the spring t<
cheer our souls anew after the cole
I and bleak winter w hen spring isai
I hand and all nature is in its splen
; dor and the zephyrs come to us la
| den with the blended perfume fron
the hills, valleys and meadows ol
natures purest flowers.
As 1 stated in the outset, 1 lovi
a ramble in the woods at this sea
son of the year and on the first ol
May 1 wandered away leisurely
watching for whatever might conic
in view , half dreaming and think
ing over the past. After crossing
a few hundred .sard- of woods,
then turning an eastward course
and crossing a beautiful little val
| ley, 1 came to a spring of cold,
(dear water which 1 had visited
hundreds of times back in my
, childhood days. My mind drop
i ped back to the last time that I
j had visited that spring. It w;,
May 4, ls7li just 30 years ago.
1 After taking a drink ot the spark
ling water I -at down at the root
of an t !m tree directly on the* hank
of the little brook for the first
time in 80 yearn. I set to study
ing of the sweet-bitter past and of
things then and now. The Inst
time I taken a seat under the
branches of that t ree I was young,
but now’ 1 am old. Oh, if I eottld
have grasped the old wheel of
Time and turned it bark 30 years!
After my walk 1 felt tired and
concluded to slip off my shoes and
stockings and liatiie my feet in the
pure, sparkling water, as I had
! often done in the long ago, I
dropped my feet down into the
w ater and leaned back against the
| tree for a good rest. But there
j was no rest for me; some great
! monster had fastened its fangs in
I one of my feet. J sprang for
ward to release myself. Horrors!
\\ hat did I see' I In* largest wat
er moccasin snake I lmd ever be
held, with its fangs hurried in my
fl'‘sh, its ey*‘s like balls of tire and
the green virus running from its
mouth! I had only one show and
that was to lay hold of the, mons
ter with my hands and wrench it
loose from my foot. But it done
no good: 1 could not move it. By
this time it lmd wound itself around
my leg and I was getting sick and
blind. Just at this time some one
tapped me on the shoulder and
spoke to me in a familiar voice. I
turned my head and opened my
eyes and the sun was fully an hour
high—1 had overslept myself.

A Startling Test.
To save a lii'i I>r. T. (i. Merritt,
of No Mehooyun.v, l*a., made a
startling test resulting in a won
derful cum. He writes, "a patient
was attacked with violent hemorrh
ages, caused by ulceration of the
stomach. 1 had often found Elec
tric Bitters excellent for acute
stomach and liver troubles so 1
prescribed them. The patient gain
ed from the first and has not had
an attack in 14 months.” Electric
Bitters are positively guaranteed
for dyspepsia, indigestion, consti
pation and kidney troubles. Try
them. Only50catJ.I.Sturdivants.

Saturday was a dull day in our

Next Saturday is school election
day. which is by far the most im

An epidemic of Malaria is sure to fol
low the wet season and the high waters
which have prevailed all over the
South. Malarial and kindred fevers
will develope to an alarming extent.
General health conditions will be bad;
every precaution should be taken.
The System Mult Especially Be For
tided to Resist Malarial Attacks.
A trial of fifty years has demonstrat
ed that for this emergency, Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic has no equal. Iron is
the fighting element in the blood, and
the kind of iron supplied by Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic is just the kind the
system requires to successfully combat
malarial conditions. Don’t wait until
you are attacked. Take it now aud for
tify yourself; it is an absolute safeguard
and, at the same time, it is the best
tonic and invigorunt for the entire sys
tem. On the other hand, quinine dis
turbs the system and its cumulative
poison In'gets greater physical troubles
than those it is employed to remedy.

already exists, take DR. HARIERS

There are four piano manufacturers in nbe United States
and only four, who have made 100,000 pianos each- The
Sp houses which are now proudly celebrating this achievement
are the Chicken 115, the Fischer, the Steimvay and the Kimball.
It will no doubt be of interest to know the length of
57 time it has tauen each of these distinguished companies to
produce 100,000 pianos, which is as follows ;
The Chickering, 80 Years
£ The Fischer, 63 Years
The Steinway, 50 Year*
57 The Kimball, 20 Years
Of these companies the Kimball is the only organ mimo
sa fncturer, and in addition to the pianos has also made more
than 250,000 reed organs and 4,400 large pipe organs.
In twenty years time, therefore, the Kimball Company
57 has far outstripped all oilier makers in output in this or any
£7 other country.
Jtr This wonderful achievement, when coupled with the
r artistic, merit of the Kimball, as attested by so large a num
£7 her of great artists and musicians of Europe and Ameiica,
completes a record of facts which is indisputable, and makes
27, plain the verdict.
