RANCH BUILDINGS DESTROYED

Nv ILL.,
Napoleon, Aug. IA large cattle
shed, barn, granary, a stallion, some
fence and other valuable property on
the excellent Delaney ranch twenty
two miles east of Napoleon, was de-
stroyed by fire Sunday. The fire in
some mysterious manner originated in
the hallway of the horse barn in a bed
OF trampled hay, and the flames spread
rapidly. Quite near to the north of
the barn is stacked about 400 tons of
hay, and but for the fact that the wind
was from a %northerly direction at the
time the hay would have also gone up
In smoke. The loss to DeLaney
Bros. is about l 1900, and no insurance.
W. L. Price, who is working. at the
ranch, lost all his clothes. Mr.. and
Mrs. Brandt lost most all their bed
ding, of which they had a great and
valuable quantity, and their clothing.

FINE CROP OUTLOOK
Farmers Enjoying Excellent and Fa-
 vorab'e Weather Conditions.

The farmers of this section are highly elated oyer the bright out look for crops, which is made more encouraging in view of the fact that local showers lave been general in Arkansas and all the cotton region states.
 Reports from every section of this state indicate favorable condi. tions for crops. It is not likely that any unusual change will occur. to mar the progress of the planters. The heat today has been intense4 It is possibly the warmest day we have experienced this season, but the intensity of the heat is not mo- ticed owing to pleasant breeze which stirs. The official reports for the coming two or three weeks say the weather will be very hot.

TRY THIS.

An exchange prints the following curious item: "Tie a string about a yard long to common door key. Then take the string in the right hand and hold it so the key will clear the fl DOT four or five inches. If you can hold the key steady enough 1t will begin to swing back and forth in a straight line. Let another per son take your left hand in his. and the motion of he key will change from a pendulum like swing to q circular swing. Ii the third perso n will place his hand on the shoulder of the second person, the key will stop. Try it and explain it if you can.''

Is IT RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
 Medicines?

Tor @n Editor to Recommend Patent
 Medicines?
 From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. c.
 It may be a question whether the editor of newspaper has the right to publicly recommend a1y of ehe various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as preventive of suffering we feel it our duty to say a good word for Chamberlain'e Golie. Cholera and Diarrhoea ReEne= dy. We have known and used this medicine in our family fer twenty years and have always found it re- liable. In IT any cases dose of this remedy would save hours of suffer- ing while physician is awaited. Ne do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that if bottle of Cham berlainss Diarrhoea Remedy was kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suf- fering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of physi- clan would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty years, For sale by ". l.. DeWoody < Co.,, Druggists.
