YELLOW Fever
There is No Occasion for Alarm.
Remember the Lessons of the
Epidemic Of 1898.

AS we are now threatened with an
other visitation OF the dreaded yellow
fever 1t is well to remember the expert :
ences OF the last occasion. In all sec
tions where the yellow fever made it's
appearance it will be recalled that per-
sons who kept their stomach, liver and
bowels strong and active were not af-
fected by the disease; while the others
apparently healthy were stricken down.
These latter were all more or less hab-
itually constipated, bilious or victims
OF bad digestion; as result the blood
became impure and the vital organs
were. unable to resist the deadly fever
germs. Now is the time to prepare for
what is to follow. Get your family and
yourself IN shape to resist the disease.
You don't know when you are exposed
to it, every man you meet may be af.
fected and il you put off your prepara-
tions from day to dav you may be too
late. The sensible course is to begin at
once taking Prickly Ash Bitters; that
marvellous system regulator and blood
purifier. Use it regularly every day.
Half wine glassful each morning af-
ter breakfast will keep your bowels Cd.
en- and healthy, 1t will also strengthen
the bowels and digestion, purify the
blood and by stimulating the liver and
kidneys all bile and uric acid impuri-
ties will be driven out of the body. In
short, 1t puts the system in perfect or
der. Remember 1898 That was rec
ord for Prickly Ash Bltters In the
sections where ii was used the most
there were fewest cases of fever. You
cannot do better in this hour of danger
than to make use of the means which
experience has proven to be the best
for lighting of this terrible seouroe.

A. H. Barr

Died, yesterday morning, after a dis
q tressing illness of three weeks and
was buried at Odd Fellows Cemetery
late the same evening. Mr.. Barr was
unwell when he came here from
Greenwood, where he was engaged in
the mercantile business for the Pc
teet Bros, and thought short stay
here with his brother and sister would
restore him, instead of which he kept
declining until it eliminated in death.
lie VIZ twenty-three years old, in the
very flower of youthful manhood, and
really the cares and responsibilities
Of life had not begun to be felt by
him. All was poesy and sunshine yet,
disappointments and business cares
had not furroWed his cheeks, bleached
his locks or caused him to lose con-
fdence in his kind. While such visi-
tations are not understood, who
knows but what it is best to have it
so? Funeral services were held at
the house, conducted by Rev. J. B.
Hutton, of Jackson, and concluded at
the grave. Mr.. Barr is survived by a
sister, Mrs. Walter Moore, and Lester
E. Barr, his brother, to whom the
ADVERTISER tenders it's sincere SYM
nathY.

Government Weather Report for the
Week Ending Monday July ID.

The mean temperature for the
week was slightly below normal.
The rainfall was generally light over
the northern half of the State, and
moderately heavy over the southern
half. Sunshine prevailed during the
greater portion of the week, espec-
tally in the central and northern
counties.
A general although not decided i'm
provement is reported in the condi-
tion of cotton. Over the middle and
northern portions of the State cult
walton made good progress and much
early cotton has been laid by in fair
to good condition; plants are large,
but as a rule they are fruiting slowly.
Some injury has been done to young
cotton in removing the rank growth
of grass and weeds, and as re-
suit plants continue small with some-
what broken stands. Many fields of
cotton are still graa. and the con-
tinued rains in the southern counties
have greatly hindered cultivation.
There are scattered reports of rust,
blight and shedding, and few re-
ports of more abandoned fields.
Old corn is maturing with q fair to
poor crop indicated, while young corn
that has been properly worked is
growing nicely, but beginning to need
more moisture in some northern coun-
tles' Peas potatoes and sugar cane
continue to do well. Fruit is scarce
and of inferior quality; melons are
also yielding poorly in many sections.
Pastures and meadows are in fine
condition.

too late to redeem the abandoned

portionate share of the government
work and responsibility, and it is
with view of relieving him Of a por-
ton of his official burdens that the
President suggested the ACCESSIBILITY
of the transfer of the Panama Canal
work to the State Department
Secretary Roots acceptance of the
trust would enable Secretary Taft to
devote more of his time to the con
sideration of important questions af-
fecting the government Of the Philip
pines and the business of the army
generally. 1t is known that Secretary
Taft has no personal ambitions in
connection with the Panama canal
work, and is entirely willing, as a
matter of general expediency, that its
supervision should be transferred to
Secretary. Root as the head of the
State Department.
Secretary Root, however, with all
his ability for hard work, is under
stood to have no hankering after the
canal job.
