Girls With Beautiful Faces
or Graceful Figures
American girls have a world-wide
reputation for beauty, but, at the same
time, there are girls in our cities who
possess neither beauty of face nor
form, because in these instances they
suffer from nervousness, the result of
disorders of the womanly organism.
At regular intervals they suffer so
much that their strength leaves them;
they are so prostrated that it takes days
for them to recover their strength. Of
course, such periodic distress has its
bad effect on the nervous system. The
withered and drawn faces, the dark
circles and crow’s feet about the eyes,
the straight figure without those
curves which lend so much to feminine
beauty are the unmistakable signs of
womanly disorders.
When a girl becomes a woman, when
a woman becomes a mother, when a
woman passes through the changes of
middle life, are the three periods of
life when health and strength are most
needed to withstand the pain and
distress often caused by severe organic
disturbances.
At these critical times women are
best fortified by the use of Dr Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription, an old remedy
of proved worth that keeps the entire
female system perfectly regulated and
in excellent condition.
Mothers, if your daughters are weak,
lack ambition, are troubled with head
aches, lassitude and are pale and
sickly, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion is just what they need to surely
bring the bloom of health to their
cheeks and make them strong and
healthy.
If you are a sufferer, if you daugh
ter, mother, sister need _help, get Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription in liquid
or tablet form. Then address Dr. Pierce,
Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., and re
ceive confidential advice from a staff of
specialists, that’s free; also 136-page
Look on woman’s diseases sent free.

EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel is quicksilver and acts
like dynamite on
your liver.
Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It’s mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con
stipated and all knocked out and believe
you need a dose of dangerous calomel just
remember that your druggist sells for
fiO cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver
Tone, which is entirely vegetable and
pleasant to take and is a perfect substi
tute for calomel. It is guaranteed to
start your liver without stirring you up
insido, and can not salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a day’s
work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. Give
it to the children because it is perfectly
harmless and doesn’t gripe.
Song—Class.
Invocation—Rev. J.L.Brown.
Oration “Opportunity”—
Richard Holderby.
Piano Solo—Winnie D.Dear
ing.
Oration, “Modern Educa
tion”—Holman Brown.

day evening only upon presen
tation of an admittance card at
the door, \\hich were mailed
out with the invitations by the
members of the senior class.
WOMAN’S RIGHTS!
AH! SHUCKS!!!
A Missouri editor has it fig
ured out that, the women do not
need any more rights since a
man cannot sell his house and
lot without his wie’s consent;
he must pay her bills, whatever
they are; if he deserts her she
can jug him;if she deserts him
he has to take his medicine; if
he jilts her, she can bring suit
for breach of promise, while
if she jiltshim hegets the horse
laugh; if he dies she gets the
property,if she dies he gets the
funeral expenses; if he whips
her he gets 60 days on the rock
pile, but if she hits him over
the head with a skillet the
world concludes he deserves it.
And still she wants more rights.
—Clay County Courier.
WIREWORMS AGAIN
DAMAGING COTTON
Newport, May 13.—The
wireworms have again made
their appearance near Elgin,
in the Black River bottoms,
north of Newport, having al
ready done considerable dam
age to young corn and cotton.
The wireworm have been in
festing a section of the Elgin
country for several years, but
farmers of thatvicinity say they
are much worse this year than
last season. Many planters in
that section are replanting their
crops of cotton, this being a
costly proceeding, owing to the
high price of cottonseed.
FINE STRAWBERRIES
ARE PRODUCED HERE
Fine Specimens Brought in
Show What Can be Done by
Farmers Around Newark.
During the past few days
The Journal has been the reci
pient of several boxes of the
finest strawberries ever grown.
For size, those sent in by N. M.
Wilson take the premium,many
of them measuring 41/2 inches
in circumference. Others just
as fine in appeaance and fit to
tempt the appetite of a king,
were sent by IVIrs. R. IT. ^ nlk
er of Wycough township,Cash
ier E. B. Chesser of the First
National Bank and Prof. P. A.
Peacock.
No better or more finely ila
;ored berries were ever produc
ed anywhere in the world, and
a-hat these parties have done
n a small way in growing ber
ries, can be done upon a larger
,cal'e by every farmer in the
entire section of country north
ind west of Newark.
Thousands of dollars worth
5f the finest berries could be
produced every year in this
community if the farmers
would only take hold of the
natter in earnest.
The berry crop would give
us ready cash at a time of the
year when money is now scarce.
It would furnish employment
for hundreds of people, wom
en. girls and boys, who have
nothing to do atthisseason.and |
would put more money in em
ulation among a greater num
ber of people than any other
crop that could be grown in
this community.
Berry growing has proven a
success around Batesville and
Desha in our own county,so we
do not have to leave home to
see the benefits and results of
berry growing.
The Journal sincerely hopes
that our farmers will take hold
| of this matter without any fur
ther delay and get in line to
reap some of the rich harvest
of ready cash which it hasbeen
proven can be gotten from
strawberry culture in this com
munity.
FARMER KILLS
RATS WITH LYE
On a large number of old
shingles I put about a half tea
spoonful of molasses each,and
on that with my pocketknife 1
scrapped a small amount of con
centated lye, says Ralph R.
Jones in Farm and Home. 1
then placed the old shingles
around under the stable floors
and under the cribs. The next
morning I found 40 dead rats,
and the rest left the farm for
, parts unknown. I have cleared
I many farms of the pests in the
j same way, and have never
j known it to fail.
POSTMASTER IS
KILLED BY TRAIN
Lewisville, May 12.—J. A.
Steele, 05 years old, and for
eight years postmaster at Lew
isville, was struck and killed
by a 'Cotton Belt fast passen
ger train as it passed the sta
tion here at 8:10 o’clock last
night. Mr. Steele is said tohave
stooped to strike a match on
the rail and, having misjudged
the speed of the train, was
struck in the head as he arose.
NOTHING that we could say would so thoroughly
convince you of the value of Chamberlain’s
Tablets as a personal trial. We can tell you
of thousands who have been permanently cured of
chronic constipation, indigestion, biliousness, sick
headache and disorders of the stomach and liver,
but this will have little weight with you as compared
to a personal trial. That always convinces.
SCREEN’EM OUT
—the pesky houseflies
With warm weather comes the house
fly; a menace to the health of your family
and yourself.
You should screen early this year and
avoid having the flies around you.
We carry a full line of screen wire,
screen doors, and all kinds of building
material
We keep at all times a complete line
of hardware, sash, doors, nails, glass,
hammers, saws, furniture, wagons, rugs,
mattings, lime, etc.
Keep in mind the fact that quality of
our goods is consistent with the prices.
