Opposed to the Gerymander.

The Bolivar Bulletin is up in
arms against Mr.. Jones' bill to take
Hardeman from the Tenth Congress
siOnal District and attach it to the
Eighth. The Bulletin says that
Hardeman Democrats could hardly
overcome the opposition majority
in the Eighth, and besides might
lose the Tenth. The Bulletin
stands pretty close to Congressman
Patterson, and it may be that your
HUncle" Josiah is not solicitous
for a change.
The above is copied from
the Nashville American, of
Monday. Whether Mr.. Pat
terson desires a change or not,
we are unable to say, as we
have never heard him ex-
press an opinion in regard to
the matter. TIE people of
Hardeman County are the
ones interested, and they
alone have a right to protest
against a measure which
meets with their disapproval.
The democracy of Hardeman
County is overwhelmingly
opposed to the passage of
Mr.. Jones' bill.

now-nearly 20. His life

as governor can mean but
little more to him than the
drawing of a meager salary
for two years more. And
yet we see him clutching at
that with the desperation of
a starveling. We behold the
man who, for years, held the
highest position of response

the peoples trusted tribune

Prevention VS.. Cure.

Most people are quick to see the need
of medical aid when disease has fas-
tened itself upon them, or when they
are Frustrated by some epidemic. 1t Is
not everyone, however. who realizes
the Importance Of keeping the body
in such state of health that it will be
able at all times to resist the attacks
of disease It is when the system is
weakened by overwork or worry, caus-
ing loss of appetite, ETC., when 1t Is
greatly debilitated. Or 'Sall run down"
that the danger of serious sickness
and heavy doctors bills is to be feared.
On the other hand, if perfect health
can be maintained, the blood kept
pure, and the circulation good, the ap-
petite normal and the spirits cheerful,
there will be no occasion to fear the
grip, pneumonia, diphtheria or any
similar ailment. AS a means OF keep
ing the body in just this condition OF
health no better agent has yet been
found than that great blood purifi 4
and strength builder, Hoods Sarsa-
parilla. While it is true that Hood $
Sarsaparilla Cures" it is equally true
that Hoods Sarsaparilla prevents
sickness, and this truth is Of supreme
Importance to all. Mrs. c. c. Roles, OF
Wauregan. Conn, writing TO the pro-
prietors of Hoods Sarsaparilla, stated
the case most concisely when she said:
.NVe don't wait until we are sick, but
take Hoods Sarsaparilla to prevent
sickness Certainly, prevention i For
better than cure.
