Thanksgiving Day In JOnesbOrO.

thanksgiving day was appropriately
observed here Thursday by a union
service atthe First Presbyterian Church
conducted by the resident ministers.
Rev. McVoy, of the NJ. E. Church.
South, preached the sermon. The
Jonesboro Post of the G. A. R. held a
reunion and had a basket dinner al the
Court House after which they repaired
to the Second Presby terrain Church and
listened to a sermon appropriate to the
occasion by Rev. j. w. G. Willoughby.
His text was from the Songs of Solomon
l, a: And His banner over me was
love-" DR.. Willoughby was himself q
soldier in the Union army, and in his
sermon said that it was just thirty
four years on that day since he, then q
beardless boy, joined the army. On
either side of the pulpit was an old,
tattered starry banner"-each with
quite a history. One belonged to Com.
pany l, Eighth Tennessee Cavalry, and
was carried through the many hard
fights in which that gallant regiment
participated. The other was an old
satin banner forty eight years old, and
was presented by the ladies of Jones'
boro, through Miss Rebecca blair, now
Mrs. David Sullins, of Cleveland,
Tenn, to Company D, Fifth Tennessee
Infantry, in 1S47, and was carried by
that company through the Mexican
war. 1t is a beautiful banner, and the
lettering on it: May the Lord shield
thee in the day Of battle" was done
by the late DR.. Sewer, of this place.
That old banner is now the property
of Capt. Mcpherson. who was a soldier
in both the'Mexican and the late war.
Before the Captain went into the war
of 1865 he had quite a time to keep
his old flag from being captured, and
a part of the time kept. it hidden in a

We all know that any tired muscle
can be restored by rest. Your stomach
is a muscle. Dyspepsia is its manner
of saying, II am tired. Give me rest. -
To rest the stomach you must do its
work outside of the body. This is the
Shakers method of curing indigestion,
and its success is best attested by the
fact that these people are practically
free from what is without doubt the
most prevalent of all diseases. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial not only con
tains digested food which is promptly
absorbed without taxing the tired di-
gestive organs, but it is likewise an
aid to the digestion of other foods in
the stomach. A 10 cent trial bottle
will convince you of its merit, and
these you can obtain through all drug
gists.

Constipation is one of the most danger

A physician would first prescribe a

give you Ra1nOn's Tonic
