ed to learn that there is ut least ono dread
ed disease that science has been able to
cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being constitutional disease, re.
quires a constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces Of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have SO much

The scarcity of labor in this par
ish will necessitate the partial
abandonment of more or less tilla-
BILE land on almost every farm.
This land, however, can be utilized
by stockraising. Meat of all kinds
is high, and the indications are not
favorable for reduction in the
price. Cattle raising would pay
here in DeSoto. Cattle do not re-
quire much attention, and it is
only necessary to feed them about
three months in the year There
is fair grazing all the year, while
the pasturage can be made excel
lent during the greater part of the

Prof Hopkins Book Arraigns This

Prof. Herbert NJ. Hopkins book, 'sThe
Torch" recently published by the Bobbs
Merrill company, is bold in its design and
will be applauded by many people of the
thinking world
An eastern reviewer commenting upon
Prof. Hopkins book. says: A short time
ago educators throughout the country
were agttated in consequence of the ac-
ton of the wealthy patroness of a far
western university in demanding the dis
missal of certain instructors who preach
ed antitrust and public ownership doc
trines to their classes. The echoes of the
battle which ragged over this question of
the influence of the founders or support
ers of institutions of learning upon the
policy of those schools have only recently
died away, and they are sure to be re-
vived by this novel. which deals directly
and strongly with the problem. The au-
thor has located the scene of the story
IN an unnamed western state, taking
pains by a side reference to indicate that
II IS not California. He is even so dis
Greet as to refer always to stthe capital
OF the state thus, instead of by name.
Furthermore, he has differentiated the
plot somewhat from the central circum-
stances of the actual occurrence.
dhus his story can not be regarded as
3 yelled record of that affair. It is a
powerful indictment of the interference of
money gtvers with the management of
Buch seats of learning. It tells in a
