The Value of Newspapers.

DanVfIIe Reglster.
AS a general thing the people underes-
innate the value of the daily and weekly
newspapers. 1t is frequently the case that
those who abuse the newspapers of their
community never contribute a penny to-
ward making them useful We have
known business men to withhold their adj
Vertisements and subscriptions from a
worthy paper-and then find fault if they
are not given complimentary notices in
nearly every issue There are preachers.
too. who sometimes for the time being
forget all about the gospel and score the
editors. when their only sin has been in
saving that the preacher delivered a
strong. able. forceful sermon.
The newspapers of the country are
worthy institutions. II one would pause
for a moment and ponder on what this
world would he like without honest news
papers. he or she would soon come to the
conclusion that the country could not get
along without them.

Will Join the Majority.

Dale is one of the few counties in the
State, where there is opposition to the
Democratic party but it will join the
great majority in November by electing a
full Democratic ticket.-Ozark Star.
While there is little or no opposition
in many of the counties, that offers nc
excuse for Democrats to stay away from
the polls. Turn out and help to make
it unanimous, whether there is local OPP
position or not.

The Richmond Dispatch says:
But in view of the Republican record OF
broken promises to do better If given
another chance, the American people
would make a stupendous exhibition ut
stupidity and gullibility were they to
take the Acknowledgement seriously.
And The Dispatch is correct. Let the
Republicans be punished for what they
have failed to do, and not be rewarded
for what they promise to do. The Dem
ocrats should take control and see if they
can't do better.

editor receives cord wood in exchange

city editor has to get along with coal

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con.
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tnchian Tube. When this tube is in.
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and whenit is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

Stand by the Home Merchants

It's the purpose of the News to stand
by the home merchants. Pcddlers, bank.
rupt sales. and all such halfprice, below
cost people are not to be encouraged.
We learn that at one time Garnett was
afflicted with three or four merchants
who attempted to make living by
dealing in what is known as trading
stocks. The result was one failure after
ano Their. Travelling men who made the
town every week could not be certain
that the merchant he sold to on Monday
morning would be in business on Satur-
day night. Trade was demolished and
the merchant, as well as the consumer
was more vi less injured This state of
Altar, nas passed away. The men who
resorted to such means to build up trade
have long since passed into bankruptcy, |
while the men who labor to establish a |
legitima tie business. who sell good goods
at fair profit, who took pride in his
business, who paid his bills is still here,
growing in wealth every year. This
class of merchants enjoy the confidence of
the community and must succeed. Arc
you consumer? if so, you know that it
is your interests to buy of the merchant
who expects to remain in business year
after year. You may need assistance,
you may need credit for sixty or ninety
days, you may be taken sick without
ready money to provide for your family.
who will stand by you in this hour of
trouble? Is 1t the vendor of cheap
goods who is here today and some
place else tomorrow? sit the man who
only locates in our town for season?
No. In the hour OF need You turn to the I
merchant for credit. The
man who is able and willing to assist
you wnen you are IN need of help should /;
not be forgotten when you are happy :,
and prosperous. No reflection is made ,
upon the Legitimate closing out of n,
stock of goods. Ii occasionly happens
that a stock of goods must be closed
out just the same as farmer will some
times sell his stock at public sale. Some
times the merchant becomes over stocked q
with winter goods and. in the early a
spring, to reduce his stock, will sell at h
cost or even below that he may be able :,
to turn his money into marketable wares Il
This Is legitimate merchandising and rs v
not to be condemned.
