The Turk is a sort of a boll wee
vil to Europe.
Yes. Europe wants peace, but it
wants a peace that will last.
t The belligerent nations seem to
be no better prepared for peace
than for war.
Europe is as jealous of its war,
as if it were a family quarrel. "Out
siders keep hands off" is her motto.
War is just about the same sort
of “tonic" for a nation that over
indulgence in whisky is for the in
dividual. _
Many a man can see where his
wife would have made a splendid
railway section boss but for the ac
cident of birth.
Most everybody who is qualified
to oruess. believes that, large as the
business of 1916 was, that of 1917
will be even larger.
One of the disadvantages of a
conscience is that it never seems
to operate on a person who has
defrauded the government out of
more than ten dollars.
The federal reserve banks last
year increased their resourses by
166 per cent. At this rate the in
stitution in a few years will be a
worthy rival of the Bank of Eng
land.
Our exports of American pianos
during 1916 were the largest ever
known, the growing fields being
Australia, South Africa aqd Argen
tina. Thus do we "brighten the
corners" of the world.
President Wilson at 60 says he
is in better health than he has been
at any time within the last ten
years. He plays golf every day
the weather permits, goes to bed
seldom later than 1 1 p. m.. and
gets up early. Long life to him,
and may God bless him.
There were built last year in the
United States 1066 new ships, of
which 546 were constructed on
the Atlantic coast and on the Gulf,
while 265 were built on the Pacific,
the rest being in the Gruat Lakes
or Mississippi districts. A good
start toward a larger merchant
marine, but 191? should see even
greater progress.
The plan for a double election
board to facilitate the counting' of
ballots and making electi on returns
should become a law. Arkansas
has been notoriously slow in report
ing election returns and frequently
this slowness is a disg race. A
double election board will do away
with this annoyance if provisions
are properly made. Secrecy, of
course, should be thrown _around
the counting of ballots while other
ballots are beir ig cast: to do other
wise would probably impair the
ballot and gh-e unscrupulous men
an advantage worth much to them.

leases and is making arrangements
to build an enormous plant at Spy

well No. 2 of the Progressive Oil

acres of land has been leased by
the carbon company upon which
they will erect their buildings, and
twenty carloads of machinery and
other equipment have already been
shipped to that point. It is said
that the planV will cost $200,000
and that it will be the largest car
bon plant in the world.—Farmer

Hacking Coughs w c^u.
“ For Hacking Coughs that rob you of your sleep till your sys
tem becomes so run down that you are in grave danger of Pneu
monia or Consumption, the kind that almost tear you to pieces,
that make your head ache, your throat sore and inflamed, take
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It soothes and heals the inflamed air passages, stops the tick
ling in the throat, and by it3 tonic effect enables you to throw
off the disease. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is quite different
~ from the ordinary cough medicine, for it not only soo'hes but
also heals, so that the effected parts are restored to a healthy
condition and the danger of a future attack is removed. I firmly
believe that it is the best and most reliable preparation ever pro
duced for coughs and colds.”

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous
Surfaces of the System thereby de
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting na
ture in doing its work. The proprie
tors have so much faith in the curative
powers of Hall's Catarrh Cure that
they offer One Hundr°d Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

The simplest task the hand can try,
The dullest round of duty.
Knowledge can amply glorify,
And art can crown witli beauty.
Wholesome Foods for Children.

the youngsters, to keep them rosy
cheeked and sturdy. Cornmeul, oatmeal
and whole wheat should form a large
part of the diet of young and old.

half cupful of barley flakes and one
half tenspoonful of salt, a pint of milk,
a quart of water, a yeast cake and
whole wheat tlour. Mix the cereals,

in the cereal; cook about two hours,
rub through a sieve, adding water to
make three cupfuls of gruel, then add
the milk, previously scalded, and the
yeast cake, dissolved In two table
spoonfuls of water. Add sufficient
whole wheat flour to make a soft
dough, mixing thoroughly with a spoon,
heating for five minutes. Let stand
well covered in a warm place to rise
until very light. Add more flour, mix
again and pour into well-greased pans
to stand until light. Hake iu a mod
erate oven for 40 minutes.
Whole Wheat Raisin Bread.

ful of water, one-half teaspoonful ol
salt, one und one-half cupfuls of rai
sins, one yeast cake and whole wheal

sert.

More Joy Taken From Life; ^
Ban Placed on Mistletoe J?
Science has handed another
jolt to the Joy of living.
No more will the mistletoe
hang from the chandelier during
the festive Christmas season for
there won’t be any mistletoe to
hung—that is there won’t be any
if the cold-hearted men ot
science have their way.
The government forest experts
have made a thorough survey of
the mistletoe matter and have
declared it a pest responsible
for the loss of a great many
thousands of dollars to tins coun
try annually by strangling, stunt
ing and finally killing the trees
to which it attaches itself. The
mistletoe is a parasite, attaching
itself to a great variety of trees,
including hardwood trees of the
forest, shade and fruit trees, anil
once it takes a hold it is very
difficult to dislodge, and unless
it is removed, it will eventually
spread until it, covers the entire
tree and cause its end. While
the plant is pretty, it has no
value, except the sentimental
role which it plays at. the Christ
mas season, and the demand for
it at this time is not great
enough to check its spread to any
extent.
