not diminished in the least.
Some ot our children have died,
others have married and left

guests departed for their re
spectives homes hoping that
we may spend another pleas
ant day together soon and
when our lives are ended may
we all meet where there is no
more parting, sickness, sorrow
and death. I)r. Bevens.
AVOID MISTAKES
No Need For Newark People
to Experiment With Such
Convincing Evidence
AT Hand
There are many well-adver
tised kidney remedies on the
market today,but none so well
reeomended in this vicinity as
Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read the
statement of a resident ofNew
port.
J. A. Baird, 214 Main St.,
Newport, Ark., says: “Some
times my back was in such bad
shape that I could hardly
straighten up after stooping. I
had dizzy spells and headaches
and suffered from rheumtic
pains in my limbs. Doan’s Kid
ney Pills relieved me wonder
fully. During the past year, I
haven't noticed any backache
or other symptoms of kidney
trouble.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pill—the same that Mr. Baird
had. Foster-Milburn.Co.,Props.

ASKS CO-OPERATION
IN FIGHTING TICKS
| -
Systematic Tick Eradication
[is to be conducted in this ter
ritory this season. All per
sons owning or having control
! of any cattle, should know
that systematic work means
the dipping of all cattle. The
regulations provide that all
cattle should be dipped regu
larly every 21 days, except
when excused from dipping
by an inspector. Cattle kept
within the incorporate limits
of towns should be dipped the
same as those kept on the out
side. It is hoped that every
one having cattle in their
charge will co-operate, by
bringing or sending them to
the vat regularly on dipping
days, and help finish up the
work this season.
