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.

A PLEASANT VACATION
George Wright Visits historic
Scenes Near Capital City

it is still imbedded. The ivy cov
ered wall is stripped of natures
veneering at this point to afford
the visitors an unobstructed view
of this bit of evidence of the Eng
lish Cannonading. In the new
chapel recently completed at a
cost of $15,000, I was shown the
chair in which John Hancock sat
when he attached his signature to
the Declaration of Independence, j
1 was conducted through the mus-j
eum on the second floor of the |
chapel by the Rector, whose ae- '•
commodating explanations of the
historic relics associated with the
early days of this first regularly
organized and established church
in America, impressed me as
being a most estimable and clever
Christian gentleman, and well de
serving the honor bestowed upon
him and the confidence reposed
in him by the Episcopal church at
Norfolk.
Virginia Beach on the ocean is
is about 20 miles due east and is
reached b.y the N. & 8. It. It., an
electric line, Here one has an un
obstructed view of the broad ex
panse of the Atlantic ocean. It
was an interesting sight to me. 1
was impressed with the great
waves as they came from far out
in the ocean. When I was in
bathing here, I was fearful of
these waves at first, but soon
learned that instead of falling on
to me and smashing me, that I
would bob up and down on top of
them like a cork. It was a pleas
ant surprise and very enjoyable.
Most visitors to the beach do not
miss an opportunity to eDjoy the
surf bathing.
It is a few miles up the Atlantic
coa«t to Cape Henry. It is here
that the English colonists first
landed when they came to Amer
ica. The visitor sees one of the
greatest natural curiosities in the
j United States. For centuries the
winds and tides have hurled back
the sand from the shore, forming
it into hillocks, some as high as
200 feet, and for several miles in
length. It seems probable to me
however, that the ocean may have
once been where the sand hills
now are, and from some cause un
known receded to its present lim
its.
There are two light-houses at
the Cape, one of which was built
in 1701 and is still serviceable. A
loftier one was completed in 187!*.
It is 172 feet high and casts its
beani' far out to sea. A wireless
| station is located at Cape Henry.
Aiso two life saving stations are
located at different points along
the beach.
We left Norfolk on the return
trip Monday at t> p m. For the
: first time 1 saw the sun sink be
hind the sea. The dim clouds en
abled me to look it squarely in the
face. It appeared as a great ball
of fire in the Occident and as it
gradually disappeared below the
horizon its radiating glow of dif
ferent colored hues east, a beauti
ful reflection upofi the neighbor
ing clouds, which in turn gave a
soft, finish to the sea. thus complet
ing a picture grander and more
: sublime than any artist lias ever
i portrayed. Another sight which
impressed me was watching the
ships fur out at sea and at differ
ent ranges. Of these that were
farthest out only the top of the
smoke stack could be seen. I was
thus forcibly reminded of the les
sons I had learned from geogra
phy concerning the proof of the
rotundity of the earth. After an
other pleasant night, we reached
the Seventh Street Wharf at
Washington, I>. C., at 7:30 a. no.
A more pleasant liip and one of
more interest, I had never before
taken George Wright.

TEMPERANCE AND HEALTH
Statistics Show Few Men who
Drink Reach Age of 70.
The keynote of the new spirit
in temperance teaching was sound
ed the other day by Dr. George
W. Webster, President of the
Illinois Board of Health, when he
said:
“More may be accomplished by
teaching the people the truth in
regard to the fatal effects of alco
hol upon mental and physical ef
ficiency than by expatiating on
the moral wickedness of drinking.”
This is a doctrine which every
body interested in the genuine de
velopment of temperance would
do well to bear in mind. Orators
who come around and grow elo
quent over drunkards’ graves and
blighted homes and deserted wives
may or may not do permanent
good. If drinking is a sin, then
it’s a sin because it injures a man,
and if a temperance advocate is to
accomplish any permanent good
he must show just how it injures a
man. Life insurance tables show
that the man of thirty stands a 25
per cent better chauce to live to
be seventy if he doesn’t drink—
and one demonstrated statistical
fact like this outweighs all the elo
quent generalities in “Ten Nights
in a Bar-Room.”
CIRCUIT COURT OPENS
Over Hundred Cases on Docket
But None of Importance
The fall term of the Indepen
dence Circuit Court convened at
Batesville Monday with Judge
Charles Coffin presiding and all
the court officials present.
There are 111 ca*es on the dock
et, 73 criminal cases and 33 civil
suits. About 20 of the criminal
cases are liquor cases appealed
from the mayor’s court of Bates
ville.
Only one case of importance is
to be tried at this term, that being
the case of the State vs. Tom
O’Neal, a murder case sent to this
county on change of venue from
Jackson county.

Constipation
Cure Free
With the first signs of constipa
tion you resort to the home methods
of relief, such as hot or cold water on
arising, lots of stewed fruit with your
breakfast, etc., but what do you do
when these fail?
The majority then start on salts and
purgative waters, then change to cathar
tic pills, etc. If you have gone through
these various Stages you know they were
all useless, so far as permanent results
go. Now you should try just once again,
but try something practical and sensible,
a remedy made and intended for the pur
pose you are trying to accomplish. Such
a remedy, as thousands can testify I9
I)r. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which Is
guaranteed to be permanent in Its re
sults. Its Ingredients are such that by a
brief use of it the stomach and bowel
muscles are trained to again do their
work normally, so that in the end you
can do away with medicines of all kinds.
That It will do tills Mr. G. Y Dodson of
Sanvllle. Va„ will gladly attest, and so
will Mrs. S. A. Hampton of Portage, O.
To those who are still skeptical there
Is a way to prove these assertions with
out a penny of expense: Simply send your
name and address to Dr. Caldwell and ob
tain a free sample bottle. After using It,
If you are then convinced It Is the rem
edy you need, buy a fifty cent or one
dollar bottle of your druggist and con
tinue to use it for a brief time until
rured. The directions are simple and the
dose is small. It is pleasant tc the taste, '
does not gripe and Is promptly effective,
and these statements are guaranteed or
monev will be refunded.
This remedy Is over a quarter of a cen
tury old and is personally taken by
more druggists than any other similar
remedy on the American market. Because
of its effectiveness, purltv and pleasant
taste it is the ideal laxative remedy for
children, women and old folks generally.
Dr. Caldwell personally will be pleased
to give you any medical advice you may
desire for vourftelf or family pertaining to
the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely
free of charge. Explain your ease In a
letter and he will reply to you in detail.
For the free sample simply send your
name and address on a postal card or
otherwise. For either request the doctor's
address Is Dr. W. B Caldwell, K.500Cald

A GREAT STATE FAIR

Sketch of the Fair and Points
About Hot Springs
(continued from page 1)
grand stand until all had had an
opportunity to see the world’s
champion trotter. The balance of
the time he could only be seen at
his private office, where he attract
ed as many callers as Bryan or
Roosevelt would have done.
A very exciting and interesting
feature was the automobile races.
In the five-mile races the average
speed of the winner was about
1:20 per mile. The best record
made for one mile was made by a
Jackson car Saturday, when a
record of 64 miles an hour was
made.
Aside from the fair, Hot Springs
is always an interesting city, be
cause of the wonderful hot springs,
the great work of Nature, and
the magnificent scenery. The
Hot Springs mountain is 650 feet
high, and on its summit stands an
observation tower 165 feet high.
From the top of this tower, 815
feet above the main business
street of the city, one can ."ee the
entire city and the country for
many miles in all directions.
Along down near the base of
this mountain on the western slope
are the famous hot springs, over
70 in number. The water from
some of these springs is so hot a
person cannot hold their hand in
it, some of it reaching a temper
ature of 170 degrees.
The alligator farm and the os
trich farm are very interesting.
At the former, one can see an
alligator said to be .'<50 years old.
He weighs 720 pounds and is said
to be the largest one in captivity.
They raise alligators here, and one
can see them of all sizes, from the
little ’gators just hatched, on up
to the full grown specimens. They
hatch the eggs there in incubators.
The ’gators are nine inches long
when hatched. They grow five
inches the first year, and after
that one-half an inch each year,
i They begin breeding at the age of
25, but do not attain their full
growth until they are about 150
years old.
The ostrich farm is another very
interesting point. The ostrich is
a bird that is very difficult to raise,
but very valuable, their only val
ue, however, being the plumes
j plucked from the tips of their
wings, which the ladies wear on
their hats.
They have a large drove of them,
and our party saw one of the farm
attendants ride several of the
birds for a gentleman who was
taking views to be used in moving
picture shows. With a man on
its back one of these huge birds
can then easily outrun an ordinary
man, and we saw one of them
throw his rider with as much ease
as a wild Texas broncho would
throw the average rider.

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die
“In 1903 wo wrote you regard
ing my husband, who was suf->
fcring from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised Dr.
Miles’ Heart Remedy and Re
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great deal of camp meeting
work. I am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that I ought
to let you know of the wonder
ful good results from its use.”
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Milner, Ga.
This proves what Dr. Miles’
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
It does not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get .
your money back.
