MRS. GEO. A.JAMEs

Isu6ered so I did not care what became Of
me, and my family despaired Of my re-
covery. Physicians failed to help me. I
was urged to try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and want to tell you
that it has entirely cured me-. think it
is the finest medicine on earth and am
recommending it to ell my friends and
acquaintance.
Mrs. Geo. A. James, a life long
resident of Fredonia, N. T., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
81 was in a terribly run down condition
and had nervous prostration caused by
female trouble, in fact had not been well
since my children were born. This con.
dition worked on my nerves and was ir-
ritable and miserable. had tried many
remedies without getting much help but
brought mo back to health and strength It
has also carried me safely through the
Change Of Life. I cannot too strongly
recommend your medicine"

female weakness are invited to

Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the

"WHY WEAR THE NAME CHRISTIAN?'
Fully Discussed Last Evening BY Rev
B.P. Smith.

On Thursday evening Rev. B. P.
Smiths subject was 1.-THE Conversion
of a Noted Skeptic." Again, in this
discourse on the conversion of Paul,
the noted skeptic, Rev. Smith empha-
sized repentance and baptism.
Last evening to a very attentive
audience Rev. Smith, in his earnest
and sincere manner spoke on why
Wear the Name Christain?"
The Disciples of Christ or Christians,
take the position that since the name
Christian was the Scriptural name
for the followers of Christ in the
apostolic days, that Christ's followers
today must also take His name, and by
so doing gloryify Him.
They claim not to be the only Christ
ians, but Christians only.
Throughout the meetings the audi
ences have been good, the attention
splendid and the attitude of the vari-
Que denominations most courteous and
admirable.
The sermons, or discourses, have
thus far necessarily been largely doc
trinal, for this is the first series of
meetings ever held in Americas under
tho auspices of the Christian Church.
Next week the addresses wall partake
more largely of an evangelistic nature.
All are cordially invited to attend
these services.

SELLING BIG BALES AT
IL CENTS A POUND
Farmers In Sumter Are
Wise
GETTING THE PRICE IN ADVANCE
Americas Firm Makes a Purchase of
1900 Bales for October Delivery
at II CtS.-.That is a Pro-
fitabIe Deal.
GETTING THE PRICE IN ADVANCE

An enterprising Americas cotton firm
has inst closed a deal with certain
farmers here whereby it purchases
twelve hundred bales of cotton, to be
delivered in October. The price stipu-
lated is II cents per pound, and as the
farmers and the firm are alike satisfied
there is no kick coming. The firm is
thus sure of 1900 bales at a given price,
while the farmers who have thus sold
their crops in advance are dead certain
of getting a good price for 1t when
delivered, whether the market price be
10 or Is cents. Twelve cents is good
price for cotton, and while it may be
worth even more next October these
farmers who sell now have the salts
faction in the interim of an assured
good price.

This twentieth century ghost story
10 told by tho London Chronicle: -
ghost Of bellicose tendencies is troub-
ling the peace of mind of the occu-
pants of an old-fashioned inn In a.vil-
lage near Pontypool. According to the
narrative Of the proprietor. uncanny
noises have been heard almost nightly
for some weeks. A few nights ago the
landlords son, after he had retired for
the night, heard click, as though
some one had pulled the trigger of .
pistol. This was followed by groan-
ing noise and the slamming Of a door.
"He conducted search through the
house, but could find nothing unusual.
A day or two later customer put up
at the inn for the night. Soon after
he had retired he aroused the land
lord In alarm and complained that
while in bed he was struck on the face
two or three times by some mysterious
figure. He struck a light, but, to his
surprise. found himself alone in the
room. There were marks on his cheek
where he had been struck.
''Nor could the proprietor throw light
on the occurrence. He told Of q fur

Plant a Wood Lot.

We would strongly advise every
reader Of these notes who has no
timber lot and yet who is 80 situated
that he could just as we'll have one
as not to take up seriously next
spring the project of setting out 9
five or ten acre lot. Whether view
ed from the standpoint Of furnish
ing a fuel supply Or logs from
which lumber for the rougher farm
uses could be sawed, the argument
is sufficiently strong in either case
to take action. For quick growing
trees probably the soft maple for
fuel and the cottonwood for lumber
could hardly BIZ surpassed-this for
the north central states. But in
case you should live outside the
territory mentioned one can get
most reliable and trustworthy adj
vice regarding the best varieties
of trees to plant from ones state
experiment station. In any event,
plant a wood lot, for with the rapid
increase in price of fuel and:: lumber
supplies the time ia not far distant
when any kind of an old pole or
stick will possess a value that can
not be sneezed at In brief, there
is no sneezing going on right now.
Again, plant a wood lot; its value
will increase tremendously with
each passing year.-Ex.

the Improvement District Law Conference Held Yesterday by Oiiic. ials and Board of Trade Members.

Mayor John l.. Caldwell, City At torney w. F. Coleman, City Engi- reer w. J. Parkes and the members of the city council in a body will go to Little Rock tomorrow morn ing to attend the municipal conven- tion, which was called several weeks ago by Mayor w. E. Lemon. of that city. There will be no meeting of the Pine Bluff city council Mon- day night, the meeting having been postponed until Tuesday night at the last session of the local legisla- tive body.
 The convention was called for the purpose of discussing needed legislation for cities of the first and second class in Arkansas.
 One of the chief matters to be considered will be the proposal of a constitutional amendment per- hitting cities to issue bonds for permanent improvements. Such an amendment was defeated in the general election two years ago.
 The members of the city council held a conference with the Pine Bluff Board of Trade officials at Board headquarters yesterday and discussed legislation of vital inn portance to Pine Bluff, which will be suggested at the Little Rock con- vention. Considering the fact that a petition is to be presented to the city council Tuesday night that the whole city be formed into an inn provement district, the object be- ing municipal ownership of water and light plant, this subject will play a prominent part in the con- vention proceedings. The officials of the Board of Trade and some of the aldermen favor a change in the law providing for the forma- tion of an improvement district.
 Committees from city councils of various Arkansas cities will be pres ent at the Little Rock gathering. The cities to be represented at the meeting are: Pine Bluff, Brinkley, Batesville, Camden, Clarendon. Eu- reka Springs, Fayetteville, Fort Smith, Hot Springs, Helena, Jones' boro, Little Rock, Mena, Newport. Russellville, Siloam Springs, Stutt- gart, Searcy, Texarkana and Van Buren.
