Of the mayor they will be closed, and
His Honor gives assurance that the
order means business. Any saloon
man caught selling liquors on Sunday

It will be the first time any such
order has been enforced In the history
XII the city Previous orders in this
direction have related to keeping the
doors closed and curtains drawn. but
There has been no attmept to stop
business, and many of the saloons

tbanon other DAYS OF the week The
saloon men generally have expressed
q purpose to comply with the mayors
order although it will mean d heavy

ing restaurants in connection with
their saloons will have to arrange to
separate the bar from the restaurant.

will have difficulty convincing people
that their bars are really out of busi

The Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1???-1928, 1907-12-29

As to the effect Of this movement
there arc varying theories. One
saloon man ventured the prediction
Yesterday that there would be some
Sunday Bookkeeping" On the streets.
that some of the saloon men would
have agents who would provide them
selves with bottles on the sly and dis
pose of them on the streets a block
or two away from the place. and in
this way would 40 thriving bust
ness. But the laying In Of large sup
uhes on Saturdays Is confidently
looked for. However, it is also re-
garded as sure that after two or
three Sundays of ''dryness" there will
not be so many visitors from neigh
boring dry" towns who come here
for their Sunday booze" and there
will not be so many DRINKS in police
courts of Cairo on Monday mornings
many OF them strangers or working

"Gentlemen," thundered the energetic lecturer, "we live i1s pessimistic times.

Religious Work
*. ;. ;; :: *
Conducted by Rev. Jas. F. Jernigan Pastor M. E. Church, South

There is an old adage that says, Better late, than never, so 1t will be applied in this intance, re- garding the account of the quar- terIy conference held by Rev. A. F. Skinner, P. E., of the Meth odist church South 18th and 20th ut. Brother Skinner made a fine impression and preached three able sermons. The impression was mutual; as he expressed himself | we'll pleased with Newark and the kindness shown him while here. He is a Godly man, and all will be glad when the time comes again | for his return.
 With no desire to be seen by the public eye in the sense of vanity, it may be a matter of some interest to the reading public to know something of arduous duties of presiding elders. There are five large counties in this the Batesyille district-Independance, 5 h arp, Stone, Izard, and Fulton and | parts of Jackson, CIeburne, Bax- ter and Lawrence. So 1t is seen at a glance that the man who sticks close to the path of duty as pre- siding elder on this district 'eats no idle bread ; He has 72 quar- terly conferences to hold during the year, and 1t takes about three thousand miles of travel to get over the district and meet all these obligations. The care of all the churches in this field of labor Is in his heart. Think of him as a busy man, and pray for him as ambassador for the Lord.
 And in this connection the pas tor calls attention to the labors and duties laid on him. There are six appointments on this cir Sulphur Rock, Newark, Lebanon, The Gap, Lees Chapel and Mt. Herman. As the work is now planned, Newark gets 46 sermons, Sulphur Rock 24, Leba. non 12 and The Gap 12. These are the regular services not count ing in the fifth Sundays nor re- vival meetings. These included the pastor will preach nearly, if not quite, 200 sermons during the year It will require I,020 miles of travel to do this work, added to this is the weddings, funerals, pastoral visits and looking after church work in general. Thus 1t is seen by the readers that the pastor will "eat no idle bread" if he faithfully performs his duties on all these important lines of church work. In all this he asks the sympathy, prayers, and earn est cooperation of his members, friends and Christians in general, in advancing the cause of Christ, and that hundreds of souls may be saved from sin. and thereby be, come good men, useful and true.
 The services were we'll attended Sunday and Sunday night. The isteycSt was Goe To God be all the glory; to us the benefits. ;

Columbus, Ohio.

Dear Sirs---f have had occasion 10 use your PerHna medicine in my fam fly for colds, and 1T proved 10 be an excellent remedy. have nor had Oc- CaSion 10 use II for other ailments.
 Yours very truly, ". If. Lord. It will be noticed that the Governor says he has not had occasion to use Peruna for other ailments.
 The reason for this is that most other ailments begin with cold.
 Using Peruna promptly to relieve colds, he protects his family against other ailments.
 This is what every other family in the United States should do. Keep Teruna in the house.
 Used Pe-ru-na In tie Family Eight

 Mrs. Josephine Gillen, 3l5 Morris St., Portland Ore, member Patrons of HusbanGry, writes:
 'Peruha has proven itself of such un- told value to Us that we are glad to give il due praise. We have had it in the home for more than eight years.
 Ut restores health in few short weeks, takes away headaches and back aches, increases the appetite and re- stores lost nerve force. It is a specific for colds and eatarrh.o
 MT. Hiram X. Stiles, Middleton Mass, who has reached the age of s2 years writes:

NEWS FURNISHINGS

There is great difference between the seleC- tion of a good stock and ordinary stock of Mems Wearables. Nearly all stores buy regular lines because they are little cheaper and can be sold at little bigger profit. 1t costs little more for LIS to make careful selections, but the result justifies us, as we seldom have anything left at the end of the season which is unsafe able. We have the reputation for handling the kind of goods that man of good taste prefers, and OUT prices are no higher than others. F0R THE LADIES

INSPECTION TRIP
COUNCIL STREET COMMITTEE
4 MADE DUR or INSPECTION OF
CITY THoRouGHFAREs
ALSO LOOKED INTO SURFACE,
II CONDITION OF SEWER AND y
z s. WATER MAINS, ETC.

Last evening the street committee
of the city council, consisting of
Aldermen Peterson, Reade and A. T..
Patterson, made trip of inspection
over the line Of the sewer with a
view Of ascertaining how well the con-
tractor had fulfilled his contract in re-
gard to leaving the streets in good
condition. There is still quite a large
balance due the contractor from the
city and before this is squared up the
aldermen propose to see that the
contract is fully carried out.
In addition to examining the streets
along which the sewer; and water
mains run the committee inspected
the conditions Of several alleys which
have for q long time needed the eye
of someone In authority. The alley
between Main and Broadway was
found In wretched condition and the
committee will see that it is restored
to what 1t should be. 1. '55 n

The committee win recommend a
comprehensive idea of street work to
the council with the view that gem

sprovement instead Of the, patchwork
system which has heretofore pre-
vailed. Main street win be placed on
grade for q starter and with that as
q base line the work Will be extended
on the north and south intersecting
streets.
Another matter that the committee
took cognizance Of was the unauthor-
lied tearing up Of the streets by
corporations and individuals in tap

practice which endangers the entire
system Of mains ana entailing eventu-
ally d heavy cost on the city.

council are to be congratulated upon
the energetic way in which they seem
to be taking hold Of their duties and,
without disparaging the work Of past
committees. It may be safely said the
taxpayers fully appreciate the pleas

In addition to these the Northern
