Thousands of people have catarrh who
would be surprised to know it, because
it has been called some other name than

Kas a Kick Coming.

The glorious Fourth was cele-
brated at Holly to the entire salts,
faction of our guests. Not every
detail was properly attended to,
however. For instance. the speak.
en- stand was the chespest and
crudest piece Of taste and necha1-
ical ingenuity the huma fnsesk ct
could conceive. The writer al
we'll as other citizens we're cha
grined and mortified to witness
such manifestation Of ignorance
and stupidity. No seats for the
Glee club were provided; in fact
every detail had been neglected.
The speakers stand ought to have
been as carefully looked after as q
fashionably dressed bride, but in
stead it was fitted after the simili-
tude of an i'll spent life. 20.
Shame. where is thy blushr'
The crowd was legion and a
brighter and better behaved lot of
people never assembled to do hon.
or to the great American day.
1t is the concensus of opinion
that one day is absolutely made
quate to properly celebrate the
glorious F ourth and go through
with an elaborate fun program.
Matters become too much conges-
ted. Consequently, it will be nee
essary to use two days. l am sure
the innovation suggested will be
appreciated and adopted.
Come to Holly next 4th and 5th
and help make the celebration a
record breaker. Let it be written
in letters as big as box car that
it is Holly's bonatide intention to
make the 4th of July celebration
a permanent thing.
Come to Holly every Fourth
and as often between times as is
convenient and yon will be as
welcome as the morning air TO the
fevered cheek.

HOLLY DID CELEBRATE.

sent in no finer weather could have
been asked for than that which
was enjoyed from the beginning to
the end of the festivities. The
sun shone brightly with a cool and
gentle breeze and no one had
cause to complain of the heat.
Early in the morning vehicles
began to come from the country
in all directions thick and fast and
at nine O'Clock special arrived
well loaded with people from La
mar and Granada. By ten o'clock
there were over two thousand peo-
pie in town and Fourth street WAS
almost solid mass of humanity.
The parade headed by the La
mar band was the first thing on
the program and it was pro-
nounced success. There were nu-
merous floats, many OF them re-
markable for their unique ori-
ginality. Among the most notici
BILE of these were Lamb 4 Tuttle,
the harness makers; the Garfield
family consisting Of nearly doz-
Ell members of all sizes in small
spring wagon with banners in
scribed "a Roosevelt Ideal Fami-
ly;" and gorgeous hoat drawn by
four horses representing the Ami
tyvi!le Grange. The latter was
awarded the prize and in their de-
cision the judges but echoed the
sentiment of all who Witnessed
the parade. The enterprising
Grange. people had worked hard to
make cretlitable display and the
result was more satisfactory than
they had anticipated. The Liber.
ty wagon was very pretty affair,
being loaded with nearly fifty lit
tie girls dressed in white and
drawn by four horses.
The program at the grove was
carried out as advertised in every
particular. Prof. J. o. Sword and
Judge Hutchison were both on
hand and each made stirring pa
triotic address.
The Sunny Side Glee Club in
terspersed the program with some
excellent music. the audiences ap-
probation of which was shown by
a unanimous vote of thanks being
given them at the close.
AS soon as the program at the
speakers stand was finished those
in charge of the barbecue began
dishing out the meats and other
eatables and an hour was assidu-
.ouslv devoted to satisfying the
wants of the inner man. The
cooking of the meat was under the
supervision of Frank Means who
is recognized as professional in
that line and the excellence of his
cooking was subject of general
comment during the repast.
After dinner the crowd, being in
good condition to enjoy the after
noon program, repaired to the
race track where the fun soon be-
gan. The grand stand was consid-
erable larger than the one last
year yet it was filled before half
the people were admitted,
I Numerous minor sports such as
foot races egg race, sack race and
bicycle rates entertained the spec
tators for an hour or more. The
five mile bicycle race wss a very
interesting event. There were
three entries. Hans Maher win
ming first prize and W. r. Rock
we'll second.

Butterfly Farms.

There are number of butterfly
farms in France where the object is
to breed rare specimens of the silk
worm family. Several new varieties
have been obtained by crossing. and
an effort is being made to acclimatize
species that belong to other countries.
The farms have oak. ailanthus, pine
and plum trees. and castor-Oil plants,
on the leaves of which the caterpillars
feed. COcoOns are hatched on branches
protected by gauze, and, for the sake
of uniform temperature. the insects
are often kept in room until after the
first moulting. when they are placed

Still Another Case.

Franksville, Wis, Oct. 12.-Many re-
markable cures are being reported
from ali over the country, but there is
one right here in Franksville which is
certainly worth publishing, and which
has not as yet been given to the public.
Mrs. Louis Markison of this place
had been sick woman for quite a
long time and could not find anything
to give her any help. She suffered all
the painful symptoms of what is gen.
orally known as female weakness. Ev-
cry woman who reads her story will
understand these distressing conditions
which combine to make the lives of
many women one long burden Of
weakness and suffering.
Mrs. Markison CHANGED one day to
hear of new remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, that was said to be a
splendid medicine for women's weak
ness. She determined to try some and
soon found herself getting better. She
kept on with the pills and was cured
Speaking of her case Mrs. Markison
says:
Il can and do praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills as remedy for female weakness.
They are the best medicine l have ever
known. and have done me great deal

Internafional,s Report.

Special telegrams to the International
Mercantile Agency regarding more I'M
portant trade features are summarized as
follows:
Some concern has been felt lest the
wage reduction movement begun by pig
iron makers and in the building trades at
st. Louis and elsewhere may extend tc
other lines Merchants in staple lines
have begun to cut down orders some
what. At st. Paul and tributary terri.
tory jobbing demand is less than expect.
ed. and it is thought collections may be
delayed thirty days, although spring
wheat thrashing prospects are rather
more favorable than last week. Country
merchants throughout the Northwest are
beginning to hold off little.
1t is now clear that there will be a
1000, 600, ,OOO-bushel crop Of corn, and
that wheat will be above an average.
This is already reflected in better move.
nent. export purchases, better supply
Of commercial bills and drop in foreign
exchange. Cotton receipts are far be-
hind last year. The southern Californis
bean crop is placed at 10000 sacks.
55. 900 more than last year.
Demands for funds for legitimate bust.
ness are very heavy. Banks are having
all they can do to meet requirements.
Municipal security market is feeling the
tension, and less is doing there. The
apple crop is very large, but the potato
crop is failure.

GREAT ATE THE cHERoKeEs.
They Have Produced Men of Ability

They Have Produced Men of Ability
in All Fields of Achievement.
The Cherokees have much to be
proud of in history OF at least one
whole century, if we can believe the
Ninita Chieftain. They have produced
men of ability in all the different fields
of human achievement. The culture
Of the white race has been eagerly
adopted by the Cherokees, and men
and women of eminence in the field Of
literature, in science, in art, and in the
prowess of military glory. John Ridge,
the sweet singer of the Cherokees.

his native land, and estranged from his
tribe, sang like Milton and was the
poet laureate of his people. The Bou

noted Cherokee families have taken
Stanwatie, that fearless and skillful
commander of the Southern CherOkees,
carved for himself place among the
great captains brought forth by the
civil war. Col William p. Ross was
perhaps the most polished orator and
altogether distinguished forensic glad
iator who ever had the honor of Cher.
okee parentage. At home among the
able men of his tribe or at Washington
amid the talented and picked men Of
the American nation, he stood we'll to
the fore and lost nothing by compari-
son. The younger Elias Cornelius Bou.
dinot was also a man of marvellous Or
atorical ability, and for cutting sar-
casm, penetrating logic and magnifi-
cent eloquence was man of whom
any nation or people should be proud.
