LOCUST COTTAGE.

Locust Cottage, Aug. f.-Ausust is
here, known once as Sexti)is. being the
SIKH month from Marcn. The name
was changed TO August in honor OF
the emperor, O. Augustus Caesar.
With the primitive Romans as well as
Jews the year began with March. Au-
gust has generally been one of the
hottest months of the year and one OF
the dryest. If it proves to be one
OF the dryest this year We will have
change soon. All crops on the low
lands have suffered much from exces-
sive rains. Few real good crops are
to be found
Watermelons are not as plentiful as
usual and while some orchards are
loaded with peaches, some are fail
ure. Other cultivated fruits arc not
very plentifal.

Tendency of the Times

The tendency of medical science is to- ward preventive measures. The best thought Of the world is being given to the subject. IL is easier and better to prevent than to cure. It has been fully demon. s'ra,ed that pneumonia, one of the most dangerous diseases that medical men have to contend with. can be prevented by the use of Chamberlain < Cough Remedy Pneumon always results from a cold or from an attack Of irhaenza (grp. and 1t mas been observed that this remedy couu- teracts any tendency of these diseases to- ward pneumonia. This has been fally proven in many thousands Of eases in which this remedy has been used during the great prevalence of colds and grip in recent years. and can be relied upon with implicit confidence. Pneumonia often re- suits from a slight cold when no danger is apprehended until 1t is suddenly discover ed that there is fever and tticulty in breathing and pains in the chest, then il is annouuced that the patient has rnea- monia.

A Cotton Conneess.

Mayer Walter German inform ed a Times man recently that the Choctaw had consented to put in an industrial spur west of the oil mill track mention ot Which was made in these coums when the survey was made.
 An option has been secured on forty. Tour acres of the Blanton property west of the oil mlil, at Sl 0O ger acre. Tor three years. and same has been re. corded in the County Clerks ollic,.
 The object of all this IS to locate factories and Cotton Compress here.
 The railroad company are going tc build the spur at once, and they art being urged to make haste by the par ties who will build the compress.
 Mayor German thinks the enterprise Is assured, and his efforts in the prem iSes are to be commanded.
 There is no better point in Easterr Arkansas for compress, and the le casion of the town, at the junction o the two railroads makes it doubly de Slrable and convenient as d shippnj point.
 The advantages of compress ar many to the town and to the planters as IL will have a ten deacy to incseas the price of the staple.
 Other enterprises will probably b easily secured when the industri; spur IS reality.

should never be kept more than three
quarters full. When the blue flame
disappears, close the oven hampers

When the coal is burning well, close
The lower damper entirely and half

Arch Ball.

Players stand in two or more lines,
single file, players about two feet
apart. The leader throws the ball
backward overhead to the player be-
hind. If the ball falls to the ground,
the one who failed to catch it must
pick it up and return to his position
in the line before throwing It. The
last one in the line runs to the front
with the ball, takes his place at the
head Of the line, and begins over
again. The line wins whose leader
first gets back to the front.
