Facts About the Grip.

The grip is highly infectious.
1t stimulates other diseases.
The grip picks out the weak
points of a PERSONS constitution.
The grip in itself is by no means
a mortal disease.
The victims of the grip are adults
who perish from pneumonia or
bronchitis, and the aged who sink
from heart exhaustion.
Children, while prone to the dis
ease, enjoy comparative i'm
muity from it's complications and
dangers.
In adults, the attack as a rule
comes on with lightning like speed.
A person apparently in perfect
health is suddenly overcome by a
feeling of discomfort and depres-
sion.
He 'runs" at the nose; He feels
chilly; His head aches; His eyes
pain him.
What to do-go to bed at once;
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and quinine as directed for in
fluenza.
Do this and the grip is soon
shorn of it's terrors. For sale by
Arcadia Valley Drug Co.

Commenting upon this table,
that great-hearted lover of hui
manity, John P. Altgeld, says:
"Looking moment at Mr.. Thomp-
sons table we see that of the 500
convicts examined, 419, or upwards
of four-fifths, we're without home
influences when at the age of Is
years and under. This shows
where the multitude comes from.
1t also appears that of the same
500, 21S never had attended school,
and that only 1888, or less than two
fifths, had what is usually called
good, fair education. 1t also ap-
pears that more than half were
under 26 years of age. This show
ing is not exceptional to that pen
itentiary; these conditions are
substantially the same in all the
large prisons of the country. I
have examined the reports of
nearly all the large prisons in the
United States and find remark
able similarity in them all, in SO
far as they treat of the question
here under consideration. The
truth is that the great multitudes
annually arrested for the first time
are of the poor, the unfortunate,
the young and neglected; of those
that are weak and, to a great ex-
tent, are the victims of unfavor-
able environments. In short, our
penal machinery seems to recruit
It's victims from among those that
are fighting an unequal fight in the
struggle for existence"
Now, Bro. AXE, if society must
look after these unfortunate vic
Tins of their brothers greed, why
not heed the old adage, can ounce
of prevention" etc. True, we can
not supply parents to those be-
reaved, but we certainly can pro-
vide, not only educational facili-
ties, but homes for homeless chill
dren. and thus prevent much crime
which, aside from its Christian and
humane feature, will, I think,
prove much cheaper than punish
ment of crime. F. P. HILBURN.

had justice, there is no such an

vent so much crime.

Ed. Register I'm your editorial
columns of O few weeks ago, |
notice an article in which you at
tack the public school system, be-
cause, as you say, of its encroach-
ments on the prerogatives of the
parent, and you say, "But the
worst feature of the system is its
socialistic teaching"
If that be its worst teaching, Bro.
AXE, what, may I ask, is its best
one? Even Mr.. Bryan, whose
name stands at the head of your
editorial columns as your choice
for the highest Office in the gift of
the people, calls Socialism an at
tractive but an impossible form.
"Sooialistic doctrine" you say,
"can be carried no further than it
was in the enactment of the COM
pulsory school law by the last
legislature, but even that does not
satisfy the bigoted advocates of
education. Some fifteen years
ago you told me, Bro. AXE, that
calm, dispasionate study of our
school system would convince any
thinking man that it is wrong in
principle. l may not possess the
qualities referred to, but l must
confess that / believe there is at
least room for argument.
1t seems to me that you view
only the rights of individuals and
disregard altogether the rights of
society. For society has rights.
Obligations cannot exist where
there are no rights. Then to know
the rights of society we must first
learn her obligations. Some con-
tend that society should limit her
operations to police duty almost
exclusively. Then let us, for the
sake of argument, assume that po-
lice duty is the only obligation of
society. The question naturally
arises, how may police duty best
and most cheaply be performed.
In other words, how may the
criminal elements best be con-
trolled? Or how to prevent crime.
In order to arrive at an intelli-
gent conclusion, we must know the
conditions that produce criminals.
In order to introduce expert testi-
mony here let me call up the chap
lain of the southern Illinois peni-
tentiary, Fred L. Thompson, and
give table prepared by him and
published in the book of that
illustrious Democrat, John P. Alt
geld, showing prime cause Of
crime on a basis of five hundred
men:

Uncomfortable Shaving.

"They have improved in good many

IRONTON MO. THURSDAY. MARCH %. 1907. NUMB
From Rev. Sitton.

Ed. Register In reply to the fol-
lowing local in your paper of last
week:
'It is reported that a preacher in
the Valley stood up in his pulpit
Sunday and thanked God that the
people were dying over in Ironton.
He is quoted as saying, they
ought to die.' Surely this is
most lovely Christian spirit, and
the man who could make such a
statement must hare a heart over
flowing with love for his fellow
creatures"
desire to say that | did not say
it. I was misquoted, as l often
am. did say this:
cat the funerals in the Valley |
can not help but notice the great
number of men who go to funerals
but never go to church. 1t is
awful that so many men of Iron
ton never go to church; but l
thank God the old set, that never
go to church, are fast dying out,
and some have died this winter
that you never see at church; but
some good men have died, and
among them one of our best mem
bers." / did not say 81 thanked
God the people were dying in
Ironton," nor did say they ought
to die.
have many good Christian
friends in Ironton, and the ma
jority of the Ironton people 60 to
some church. 1t puts me in a
wrong light to try to make them
think l wished they were dead.
They surely know love them, and
| also love the wicked and love
my enemies. | am making
strong battle for the Lord and the
Lords house.
God took Elijah to heaven in a
chariot, of fire, drawn by horses of
fire, because he fought those who
had forgotten God and neglected
his altar. When Jesus came he
honored Elijah with place at the
TRANSPORTATION. The people in
Elijah's day were proud of their
valley at Jesreel and believed ma
ture was God, and had 400 grove
prophets, till Elijah prayed to God
and God stopped the rain and
killed the groves, and had Elijah
kill the grove prophets. I make
mild statements compared to those
of Elijah and jeremiah when
among a people who had forgotten
God, or become disloyal to God
and His house. God did destroy
the people these men so faithfully
warned.
I am not a prophet, but l am a
called preacher of the gospel, and
| feel it my duty to antagonize sin
and sinners, even at the expense
of my own life, if need be. The
people killed Paul and Peter and
called them extreme and personal.
John the Baptist was beheaded for
being personal in saying that
Herod had no right to live with
his brother Philips wife. Herod
said he was too personal. But
Jesus said "of all men born of
, woman there is not one greater
than John the Baptist"
il I love the people of Ironton and
Arcadia. Paul said, 81 could wish
J myself accursed that my people
2 Israel might be saved" l feel the
same way, and only speak now
that 1 may not be misquoted. If
am accursed | want it to be fol
what I did say, and not for what
did not say.
