1t is going to cost more to be sick

foundations Of the feminine charms.
In order to be patriotic, without ex-

tooth washes and pastes, perfumery
and aromatic cachous have notified
the druggists that prices will be about

And it's going to cost "the people"
more to be sick. Sickness is an ex-
pensive diversion in times of peace.
War makes it more so. There is to
be healthy increase in the retail

have given notice that they would do
SO after July |, and so will the re-
taller whenever he can.
The plastic chewing gum, too, will
be more costly to the seller; not, how
ever, to the chewer. No scheme has
been devised by which a package of
gum may he sold conveniently for

manufacturers are going to reduce

Weather for July.

Prophet Hicks reads the weather
for July this way: The month will
open with very warm weather. From
the 4th to 9th will be storm period.
On the 9TH there will be heavy local
showers. About the 9th look for a
very warm period. Threatening
storms will follow on the 18th and
18th with rain and hail. From the
18th to 25th there will be violent
wind storms with a central period on
the Goth to 23rd as central dates.
During this part of July many parts
of the country will get showers, but
empty bluster will be the rule. The
month will close with need of rain.

Private Dix'S Death.

Herington Times: The account Of
the first battle that took place at
Santiago de Cuba gave among the
list of killed the name of Private
Peter H. Dix, Of Troop X First regu-
lar cavalry but the newspaper reports
since that has been so conflicting that
that it lis impossible so far for his
relatives and friends to make up
their minds whether he is dead or
alive. His father, brothers and sis
ters live here and they, as well as his
other friends and acquaintances, are
yet in suspense as to what has be-
come Of him. Pete, as he was famil-
iarly called, was always a wild boy,
but for all of that he has a world Of
friends who will be glad to learn that
he has escaped the enemy's bullets.
He enlisted over year ago and has
almost two years yet to serve. Those
who know him best, know that he
has been good soldier and that he
went to the front like a man, and
either dead or alive he is entitled to
all the honor that can be conferred
upon soldier who bares his breast to
the enemy's bullets for the honor Of
his country and the flag.
Private York who was also killed
was not the York from Hope but OF
another family.

There is more catarrh in this Sec

eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doc
tors pronounced 1t a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured by +. j. Cheney & Co., To-

After about ffty-yard chase hoover
took his assailant and broke the tough
stick over the "tough," severely pun

city arrested and fined the assailant

Dewey letter concluded;
Our half-brothers (the Jews) are
now arranging for an agreement with
Turkey by which Turkey is to allow
the Jews to colonize Palestine and
improve it. This cuts the throat of
Turkey but Turkey never even
dreams that it is the death-warrant
of the Turkish nation. By allowing
our half-brothers 0he jews to settle
in Palestine and establish great fac
tories, railroads and supply cities
there it will give us ten tribes land
ing place to congregate our armies

Turks on land. The Bible prophecies
declare that we will cut them
down in one awful slaughter, See
Obadiah and many other prophecies.
The Edom mentioned there is the
Turks, as Turks are Edomites, as
shown elsewhere in the Bible. So
Turkeys doom is already set but the
fight is to come yet and it will come
come when the 1920 years Of Gentle
times expire. See Luke 21:24 and
Rom. 1925. All this complicated
subject is plain to me, and | know
that we are at the commencement of
it, but people laugh and sneer at
this, but 80 years Of upheavals will
tell the great tale that the Millennial
Kingdom is just behind the veil
pushing every thing to the wall so
that the Kingdom Of God can stand
