The
Telephone
Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional or in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone.
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.

BIG "RELIGIOUS” SCRAP
Newark Churches in Debate Over
Matters of Doctrine
The Methodist and Christian
churches of Newark are preparing
to pull off a Reno slugging match.
To the Journal it is one of the un
solved mysteries why any think
ing man who is really interested
in doing good for the cause of the
elevation and betterment of hu
manity can indorse such. And
again we cannot understand how
any man who is really and truly
commissioned of God to preach
the Gospel of Salvation to a sin
cursed world can lay aside his
work and engage in combat with
another of God’s ministers who is
doing the best he can, according
to the light he has, to help elevate
mankind and make the world bet
ter. It occurs to The Journal
that God does not call men to His
ministry to tight each other and
dispute over trifling non-essentials,
but to tight sin and wickedness,
aud point men to a better way of
of living. And it is uot necessary
to leave Newark, or any other
place in the world we have ever
been, in order to find room and op
portunity for doing work for the
Master in helping men to become
better men and pointing them to
the paths of righteousness, recti
tude and good citizenship—the life
that God wants men to live.
MISSION OF COUNTRY PAPER
_____
Mistaken Idea That it Should Not
Discuss Public Questions.
Just exactly what is the mission
of a local country newspaper <is a
problem that some people seem to
be interested in at times. The
narrow view prevails among some
folks that the home paper has no
other duty than that of chronicling
the fact that John Jones had visit
ed the town or that John Smith is
busy putting up a new barn. The
narrow view prevails among some
folks that the local paper should
take no part in the discussion of
political questions or other mat
ters that involve the public inter
ests, because of the fact that the
local paper has readers of different
opinions and gets its support from
men whose opinions differ on pub
lic questions. This view of the
matter is nothing if not silly, and
will not be made the policy of any
newspaper man who has a firm
grip on his self-respect,—Sharp
County Record.
5000 TO BE INITIATED
Arkansas Woodmen Plan For
Monster Meeting at Little Rock.
Woodmen of the World through
out Arkansas will meet at Little
Rock on December 1st, when it is
planned to initiate 5000 members
into the order, {’reparations are
now being made by the various
subordinate lodges throughout the
state to attend in a body.
Newark has a number of enthu
siastic choppers who expect to at
tend this monster meeting.
This excellent order now has
614 camps in the state, with a tot
al membership of 31,514, and
i plans are rapidly maturing for the
! initiation of a class of 5,000 new
I members at this great meeting to
1 be held in Little Rock from the
1st to 3rd of December.
THE CORRECT TH'Nti
!
1 The Kansas editor who says,
“Anything that is expensive looks
good on a hat,” has, for a mere
man who lives live thousand miles
from Paris, an unusually dear
preemption of the principles under
lying the milliner’s business.

Mr. and Mrs. S. I). Lindsey are

the creeks were higher than they
have been for years.
K. M. Morris of Tyler was in
and around our burg the most of
the past week, buying cattle and
hogs. He has on hand now about
150 head of cattle and about 75
head of hogs.
Cotton is opening very slow;
there has been only eight bales gin- J
ned at this place, though the crop
prospects are good and if “Jack
Frost” will put off his visit for a
while we will have above an aver
age crop.
We are glad to note that our
friends on the other side of “The
White” are to have a pike from
Newark to Batesville. Say, boys,
why can't we start something like
that on our side; say, from some
where to some where. Who will
be tirst to offer a suggestion'
Mr. and Mrs. Liddell Brannan
had the sad misfortune to get their
little baby child burned to death
on the 7th, inst. Mrs. Brannan
had gone from the house a short
distance after some water, leaving
their two little children in the
house alone. The oldest one, which
is something like three years old,
got to playing in the fire and in
some way set the clothing of the
baby on fire which resulted.in its
death that night. Parents beware
of leaving little ones like these
alone.

Free Child’s
Remedy
What mother is not looking for
something that will help her children
in the little ills of life, something
for the stomach trouble and the
bowel trouble? Long ago she prob
ably has become convinced that a
child cannot readily swallow a pill
or a tablet, and that to "break them
; in half and crush them’’ is an annoy
ance; that usually they work too draeti
, cally, and are nauseating and too pow
j erful for the little one’s stomach.
Any mother who will take the trouble
of sending her name and address can ob
tain a free sample bottle of a remedy
that thousands of other mothers are using
and now paying for. This remedy is Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and the offer of
a free trial bottle is open to any mother
who has not yet used it. Having used
it and convinced yourself that it is what
you want, you can obtain It In the fu
ture of your druggist at fifty cents and
one dollar a bottle, just as so many
others are doing, the free sample belne
; simply to convince you of its merits. It
! is the best way to begin on it. Mrs. L.
1 Davis of 187 W. Harrison street. Chicago,
and Mrs. Mary Belford. 1710 Coke street,
Louisville, Ky.. both started with a free
| sample and now they write that they
have never been without a bottle in the
house since.
It is undoubtedly a great family rem- I
edy. ns It is adapted to all ages, being '
mild and pleasant to tako and vet thor
oughly effective. It is especially the
ideal remedy for children and women anil i
old folks, who need something pure, milil
and natural. It has the advantage of be- ,
Ing a thorough laxative and yet contains
tonic properties 1'sc it for the most
stubborn constipation, indigestion, liver
: trouble, sick headache, sour stomach
and such complaints with a guarantee
that it will cure.
Dr. Caldwell personally will be pleased

Nervous
Collapse
“I have traveled for thirty
years continually. I lost a great
deal of sleep, which together
with constant worry left me in
such a nervous state that finally,,
after having two collapses of
nervous prostration, I was;
obliged to give up traveling al
together. I doctored continually
but with no relief. Dr. Miles’
Nervine came to my rescue—I
cannot describe the suffering
which this Nervine saved me
Whenever I am particularly
nervous a few doses relieve me.”
A. (i. C. LIBBY, Wells, Me.
1 here are many nervous
wrecks. I here is nervous pros
tration of the stomach, of the
bowels, and other organs. The
brain, the kidneys, the liver, the
nerve centers arc all exhausted.
There is but one thing to do—^
build up the nervous system by
the use of Dr. Miles’'Restora
tive Nervine. Its strength
ening influence upon the nerv
ous system restores normal
action to the organs, and when,
they all work in harmony, health
is assured. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac
cording to directions, and if it
does not benefit lie will return**
