Change in Presses


The J~efersontan has the following
to say in regard to its new press;
Those of our subscribers who feel
disposed are asked to call within the
next ten days and pay one dollar, or
the amount they owe, as stock in u
new press. We say new press, bat it
is not new-from the foundry. 1t is
new to us and is practically as good
asif lust received from the manufac-
turers.
What we want to say is this; We
want our subscribers to know that we
have apress on which the Jefferson'an
will be printed in the future that
will be a credit to Higginsville and
the county, 1t is large, weighing
6,4OO pounds and will print four pages
of the paper at one revolution. This
will be a considerable saving in time
in the matter of press work.
The purchase of the press was
necessary. Thisis the dull season for
all country papers. Yet we sum-
moned sufficient courage to buy the
press, believing that our patrons will
come to our rescue. Those who know
themselves indebted for subscription
to this paper will please call or send
+he amount YOU owe. The printed
date on your paper will show the
amount you owe. What ever you
paw will be posted in our office so
that all who call can see who OF our
patrons are willing to help pay for
our new printing press. The list will
also be printed in the Jeffersonlan.
This is not a "falry tale put in

be outlawed within the next fifty
years, the time'given by Hon. Champ
Clark in his address to the state con-
ventjon to Christian churches recent
ly held in Sedalia, or even in a shorter
period. Congressman Clark said
that in his judgement fifty per cent
of our population outside the
great cities we're teetolaters, and
that the ointment against the
traffic was spreading rapidly. There
has been a great change in public
sentiment on the liquor question with
in the past twenty years Even Old

Women, owing to their peculiar func-
tons, are prone to constipation, and
many of their other ills are due to this
congestion in the bowels which fills the

and such like ills are primarily caused
by constipation or indigestion.
Women should be happy to learn of a
remedy that cures constipation and Indigestion,
and that has such other ingredients as purify
the blood and tone up all the digestive organs.
This remedy is Dr.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin.

Visited Cemeteries.

The beautiful custom Of visiting
Catholic cemeteries on All Souls day
and praying for the dead is growing
more and more popular in Denver,
where each year sees a greater number
of the faithful vending their way TO
Mount OliYet to strew spiritual bou-
quets on the graves of their loved ones.
Sunday afternoon, Nov. 3, was set
apart for the memorial exercises, and
the weather, being ideal a vast con-
course gathered in the silent city of
the dead. The prayers were recited by
Rev. p. A. Phillips, chancellor Of the
diocese, and among the other priests
of the city who united in chanting the
requiem were Rev. H. L. McMenamin
Of the cathedral, Rev. Thomas Mora
schino of Mount Carmel church. Rev
Father Hugo, o. F. NJ. of St. Eliza
beth's, Rev. William Organ Of st.
Leo's, and Rev Father McDonough Of
the cathedral.
The orator Of the day was Rev.
Father Organ, whose consoling words
were received with Tapt attention. The
scene was altogether a most impressive
one, and the many hued flowers on the
graves lent sublime beauty to the oc-
casion.
Though Mount Calvary had no share
in the official Observance Of All Souls
day, those sleeping their last sleep
there were not forgotten by friends and
loved ones, who quietly uttered their
prayers and sighs on the spot most hall
lowed for them
