SHAKE In A BOTTLE
Advice of a Noted Authority, Also
Gives Simple Home PresCrip-
ton Which Anyone Can
Prepare.

Now is the time when the doctor gets
busy, and the patent medicine manufac-
turers reap the harvest, unless great
Care is taken to dress warmly and keep
the feet dry. This is the advice Of an
old eminent authority, who says that
Rheumatism and Kidney trouble
weather is here, and also tells what to
do in case of an attack.
Get from any good prescription phar-
macy one-half ounce Fluid Extract Dan
delion, one Compound Kargon, three
ounces Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla.
Mix by shaking in bottle and take
teaspoonful after meals and at bedtime.
Just try this simple home made mix
ture at the first sign of Rheumatism or
if your back aches or you feel that the
kidneys are not acting just right. This
is said to be splendid kidney regulator,
and almost certain remedy for all forms
of Rheumatism, which is caused by uric
acid in the blood, which the kidneys
fail to filter out. Any one can easily
prepare this at home and at small cost.
Druggists in this town and vicinity,
when shown the prescription, stated
that they can either supply these in
gradients, or, if our readers prefer, they
will compound the mixture for them.

HARD TO BELIEVE.
Story That Will Interest Smokers,
Told as Though 1t We're True.

A well-known farmer, says an eastern
exchange, fed his horse by mistake a
quantity of poultry food, thinking it
was stock food, and the mistake was
not noticed until the horse had scratch
ed up half the garden and showed signs
of wanting to set.
While this sounds little improbable,
yet one of the clerks at Bell & Robin
sons tells story akin to it. They have
recently secured the agency for
Wadsworth Bros Chicos, cigar
that sells for &C., butts the equal in
quality of any 10c. cigar, and in fact is
preferred by many smokers. He induc-
ed one of their customers who had never
smoked anything but an ordinary sc.
cigar to try Chicos, with the result
that he now wants high grade goods in
all lines.
Don't buy Wadsworth Bros. Chicos
because it is cheap; buy it because it is
good, because it is clear long Havana
filler, because it has high grade, to-
bacco flavor and delightful aroma,
because it's the best cigar, you can get
solid enjoyment, and there is a satisfac-
ton IN feeling that you are getting all
this for nickel. .i

A certain gentlemen residing not over

society the last few days because of a
happening, not only peculiar but pain
full. And while the duck would prob

to the matter, we feel that we are
called upon to explain that his sudden
development of hermit like proclivi-

Reception for Mr.. and Mrs. O. B.
Stephens.

On Friday afternoon and evening the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. o. B. Stephens
was thrown open to friends Of their son,
Elmer, who came last week from the
great metropolis to claim his bonnie
bride in the person of Miss Goldie
Stewart, Of Leon, Iowa, the wedding
taking place last Wednesday evening
at the home Of the brides parents.
These young people became acquainted
three years ago while attending college
at this place, and then Elmer went to
New York, where he has advanced
steadily until he now holds splendid
position as auditor and expert account
ant for the Perkins Co. and commands
good salary. And all this time he has
been loyal to the girl he left behind
him, charming lady, who has won the
hearts of all who know her, and
is well worthy of this young man. Her
parents are Mr.. and Mrs. f. A. Gardner,
of Leon. and she is granddaughter of
Uncle John Phipps, of Farragut, and a
cousin of MIR. o. S. Long, and has many
warm friends in this co immunity.
Miss Ruth Long opened the door and
admitted the guests to the parlor,
where, after removing their wraps in
the adjoining room, they were met by
Mrs. o. S. Long, who most charmingly
conducted them to the receiving line
where they were cordially greeted by
Mr.. and Mrs. O. B. Stephens, parents OF
the groom, and Miss Blanche Stephens,
his sister, and were then presented to
the bride and groom themselves. Mr..
and Mrs. Malchi Hart, Of Edgar, Neb.,
and Miss Clara Gardner, of Leon, were
also in the receiving line, both ladies
being sisters of the bride.
The guests then passed to the next
room which was Respondent with
chrysanthemums, an immense bouquet
of which formed the centerpiece of a
polished table in the middle Of the room,
and ground pine, which hung in graceful
festoons from the ceiling, and were
ushered to the dining room by the
Mesdames Auracher and Scholl. And
here, indeed, was dreamland of floral
decoration prepared by the artistic
hand of Mrs. Stevens, the porch having
been enclosed by white canvass lined
with soft green foliage and studded
with mammoth yellow chrysanthe-
NUNS. Dainty refreshments, in pre-
dominating colors of yellow and white
were served in two courses by Misses
jennie and Naomi Hyatt in the after
| noon, and by Misses Maud Chapman,
Themis Nordstrom and Eva Brush in the
evening. Returning from the dining
| room each guest received red rose as
a favor and was served frappe by the
Misses Edna Day and Lizzie Logue, who
stood beneath lovely bower of ferns
and chrysanthemums in the doorway
with a rich background of palms and
ferns behind them, In the evening this
post was held by the Misses Grace and
Ruth Widney, while Mrs. Lon Williams
ushered the guests to the dining room
and Mr.. Lucius Perkins passed the
favors. Miss Naomi Hyatt also assisted
in entertaining the guests in the even
ing.
1t is unnecessary to say that this was
one Of the most pleasant social events
of the season, and their many friends
were glad OF this opportunity to
greet the bride and groom and wish
them long life and happiness.

HEROES OF 1908.
Statistics Of a Crop of Which This
 Country Is Proud

Statistics of Crop of Which This
 Country Is Proud.
 The crop of American heroes for 1906 was a bumper one, Beginn:1g with the life Saving Service, a writer in the Worlds Work gives some figures which stir ones faith in cuman na- ture to an agreeable thrill of admiEa- ton.
 During the twslye months ending lure 30, 1906, 305 vessels flew the sig nal of distress within sight of our coasts. That is one disaster for every day of the year.
 Of 4,O89 persons whose lives were thus jeopardized, by silipwreek and fire, in summer gales and winter biiz- zards, all but 27 were saved by the service. Furthermore, APO smaller craft were aided, containing 955 per sons, only ten of whom were lost.
 During the year 1906 nine members of the New York Fire Department were killed and 15O injured. Fortunate fly not all the heroes of the depart ment were killed or injured, as taase ! figures do not cover the question.
 From the beginning of the operation of tile Carnegie Hero Fund, April 15, 1904, to December 31, 1906, it's agents have investigated 1,424 eases that were reported to it. Eliminating 542 cases in which the act was performed as 9 duty, 269 cases in which the act was performed before the fund became operative and $50 cases that either were not within the scope of the fund or are still under investigation, the agents have passed upon 63 eases of undoubted brilliant heroism. In every one of these 63 cases tho agents got the testimony of eyewitnessas and siftei their evidence by means of the most rigorous tests.
 These cases are distributed as fol- lows: One each in Georgia, Iowa, Ken lucky, Michigan, South Carolina and Virginia; two each in Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana and Maine; three each in Idaho and Massachusetts; five each in New York and Wisconsin; eight each in New Jersey and Ohio; thirteen in Pennsylvania, two in On tarlo, one in Quebec and one in Saskatchewan.
 In 40 cases the rescue was iron drowning. Of the remaining Y cases two were rescues from e'eetrocution one from a fire dle casa of "One Eyed Mike O'Brlen of New York who beat the frcnen into q burning tenement by crawling along narrow coping three stories ohCye the pave ment and rescued a sick woman and theE children), four from mina d.astors enc from a rattlesnake bite, six from suffoeation, two from traia and onf from an explosion, Not all were su3- cessful in their attempts to rescue and in some eases the reseuer lost hs own life in the effort
