Boy Disappears.

Three weeks ago a little boy, inmate
OF the Methodist Orphanage, at Jack
son, by the name of Irving Seward, in
some way still u~naccounted for, disap-
peared from the institution, and it was
supposed by the superintendent that he
had possibly been surreptitiously a r
ried back to Alderman, Choctaw coun-
ty, by friends or relatives. Subsequent
inquiry revealed the fact Irving a
not been seen there or heard of, and SO
a quiet and transformations inquiry was
started, but so far without success.
The disappearance was kept quiet for
reasons deemed sufficient by the or
phanage management, but it was de-
cided to give publicity to the fact as in
that way some intelligence OF the boy
may be beard or secured. The boy Is
about Is years of age.

SPLENDID APRIL TONIC.
Easily Prepared at Home and Harm
less to Use.


This is known as .Blood- Cleaning
Time" especially among the older
folks, who always take something dur
ing this month to clean the blood of
impurities and build it up.
The following is the recipe as given
by a well-knOwn authority, and any
one can prepare it at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion oIe-half
ounce, Compound Kargon one ounce,
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla three
ounces.
Get these simple ingredients from
any good pharmacy and mix by shak-
ing well in a bottle. The dose is one
teaspoonful after meals and at bed
time.
Everybody should take something to
help the blood, which becomes impov-
erished and almost o u after the win
ter season, especially those who are
subject TO Rheumatism, Catarrh, Kid.
ney and Bladder trouble.
1t is said that n weeks use of this
mixture will clear the skin of sores,
pimples or boils.
This is sound, healthy advice, which
will be appreciated by many readers.

ranted the Inference.

Prof. William Lyon Phelps Of Yale
recently told this story at New Ha-
ven's chamber of commerce banquet:
A hard drinker was told by his doctor
that he could be cured If every time
he felt that he must have a drink he
would Immediately take something to
eat instead.
The man followed the advice and
was cured, but the habit of asking for
food had become so fixed with him
that once he was nearly locked up as
a lunatic. He was stopping at a hotel
and, hearing a great commotion in the
room next to his, he peeped over the
transom to see what the matter was.
He saw, and rushed madly down to
the Office and shouted to the clerk:

Vegetable Outlook.

The vegetable industry was started
at Crystal Springs in a small way mor
than thirty years ago. Within that
time the industry, as a whole, has not
suffered a more serious injury from a
cold wave than that experienced last
week, when the mercury lacked but
one-fourth of a degree of reaching the
freezing point, and in some localities
actually reached that point. At the
same time a heavy frost fell, which,
following on the heels of a light frost
the night before and a stiff wind from
the north preceding it for thirty hours,
caused a loss of so to 60 per cen of the
beans that had been planted and dam
aged the prospective yield of the to-
mato crop 25 tt 33 per cent.

DEvoNSHIRE.
The Land Made Famous by P~hiIpotts'
Novels.

Philpotts has made us familiar with
romantic Devonshire, in his fascinating
novels, THE River" Children of the
Mist" etc. The characters are very
human; the people there drink coffee
with the same results as elsewhere. A
writer at Rock House, Orchard Hill,
Bideford, North Devon, states:
For 80 years / drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some 5 years
ago / found that it was producing indi-
gestion and heartburn, and was max
ing me restless at night. These symp-
toms were followed by brain fag and
a sluggish mental condition.
when / realized this, l made up my
mind to quit drinking coffee and
having read of Postum, / concluded to
try it. l had it carefully made, accord
ing to directions, and found to my
agreeable surprise at the end of a
week, that l no longer suffered from
either indigestion, heartburn, or brain
flag, and that I could drink it at night
and secure restful and refreshing
sleep.
"Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use of the old kind OF
coffee, growing fonder and fonder of
Postum as time goes on. My digestive
organs certainly do their work much
better now than before, a result due
to Postum Food Coffee, I am satisfied.
"As a table beverage we find (for all
the members of my family use it, that
when properly made it is most refresh
ing and agreeable, of delicious flavor
and aroma. Vigilance is, however,
necessary to secure this, for unless the
servants are watched they are likely
to neglect the thorough boiling which
it must have in order to extract the
goodness from the cereal." Name given

Maine Woman Has Pet Deer.

Mrs. Nellie Smith. of Sebec. Me-.
has a tame deer which is nearly two
years old now, but WHICH she has
raised like a cosset lamb, feeding 1t
from a bottle at first and making a
great pet of it. 1t was given to her
by a lumberman, who overlook it in
the deep snow and caught it in his
arms when it was m larger than a
cat, except for its legs. 1t has always
been perfectly tame and dOmesticated,
never having known anything of the
wild life of it's kind, but runs about
the premises unrestrained, having it's
place in the stable on cold nights.
The deer are numerous around Sebec,
and it is a question whether, as Mrs.
Smiths pet grows older, it will not
answer to the call of the Wild and
join its comrades in the forest.

ILL FROM OVERWORK
NERVOUS PRoSTRATioN CURED
BY DR.. WILLIAMS, PINK PILLS.
By Tonine up the Blood and Nerves Pa
tient Recovered Weight, Strength
and Good Spirits.

When the nervous system is broken
down from overwOrk, or whatever cause,
life loses its joys. Not only is the ner-
vous victim a sufferer himself but he is
usually q trial to the whole family.
Nervous breakdown is often gradual,
appearing at first to be merely IN unu-
sual fretfulness. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills tone up the nerves in the most
direct way and not only cure minor
troubles but serious disorders as well.
Mr.. w. w. Munroe, of 16 Hazel Park,
Everett, Mass, says: "About four years
ago this September I became all run
down from overwork and frcnf confine-
ment to work during warm weather.
For two months / grew steadily worse.
Host in weight and strength and had no
appetite. My memory failed me quite
rapidly and / became in a very low
state, both physically and mentally. /
took no interest in life, neither in bust
ness nor recreation. In my position, as
foreman in n large manufacturing
chemists establishment in Boston, a
good memory is absolutely essential to
success because of the immense amount
of detail that must be carried in the head.
II grew very despairing. could not
bear 10 have people meet me and my
friends remarked on my condition.
About the middle of December a friend
told me one day that he had tried DR..
Williams Pink Pills and found them
reliable. / commenced taking them and
at the end of two weeks the change for
the better was remarked by friends. l
continued using the pills until l was
thoroughly recovered. Iregard them as
a fine remedy and make this statement
voluntarily in gratitude for the benefit
/ received from them"
These pills actually make new blood
and have cured such diseases as rheu-
matism, nervous and general debility,
Indigestion, rvo headache, neuralgia
and even partial paralysis and locomotor
aGaxia. As a tonic for the blood and
nerves they are u~nequalled.
If you are a sufferer from any disor-
der of the blood and nerves write for
proof of what DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have accomplished in cases similar
to yours. Every testimonial used by
this company is carefully investigated
before being published and is authentic.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or direct by mail, postpaid, IN
receipt of price, so cents per box, six

MISSISSIPPI NEWS
Privilege Taxes.

All the privilege taxes of Mississippi,
with the exception Of those paid by the
railroads, saloons and shows, will be
due during the month of May. The law
provides that where they are not pro-
cured during that month the tax col
lector shall charge double the amount
of the original tax and leaves him with
out any discretion as to collection.
State Auditor T. NJ. Henry, who FUR
nishes the licenses to the tax collectors
of the various counties, says their sup
ply will be in their hands by the first
of May, the order for the same having
been placed with the public printers
several weeks since. All parties liable
for a privilege tax had better see that
the same is paid during the month OF
MAY and save themselves the excessive
penalty. The collections from Priv
lege taxes by the tax collectors OF the
seventy-six counties for May, 1906,
amounted to 1920, 144.45. The coilec-
tions for the coming May will exceed
these figures, so Auditor Henry thinks.
Counsel and Client Locked Up.
A rather unusual feature attended
the sitting of the circuit court at Jack
son, which was the conviction n SEN
fencing of a prisoner who was being
tried for highway robbery and assault
and the imposition of a fine of 500 ON
the lawyer who was defending him.
George Lewis was the prisoner and
Elan Johnson, a negro lawyer, was re-
tanned to defend him. During the
of the trial the attorney be-
came rather o~verbearing in his be-
havior toward the court, having pre-
viously, it is alleged, manipulated Inn
portant witnesses as to have them cut
of the way when wanted. Johnson went
rather further than the ethics OF the
bar and the procedure of the court per-
mits, and Judge Billiard ordered a fine
of 800 entered against him. The at
torney represented hat he did not
have that amount of money with him.
but Judge Billiard intimated that was
the fault of the court and turned
him over to the sheriff, and so it came
about that both counsel and client We're
conducted together to the lookup.
