Do Not Crowd the Season.

The first warm days of spring bring with them desire to get out and enjoy the exhilirating air and sunshine. Children that have been housed up all winter are brought out and you wonder where they all came from. The heavy winter clothing is thrown aside and many shed their flannels. Then cold wave comes and people say that grip is epidemic. Colds at this season are even moro dangerous than in mid-winter, as there is much more danger of pneu- monia. Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, however, and you will have nothing to fear. It always cures and we have never known cold to result from pneumonia when it was used. ltls pleasant and safe to take. Children like it. For sale by all druggists.

Mrs. s. J. Mattox Dead.

Stricken down with peritonitis but a week ago, the death of Mrs. Sarah J. Mattox at her home on yesterday morning, came as a shock to her many friends. All the care and love that skilled physicians and an anxious house. hold could devise and apply for her comfort and assistance were brought into play, but the fiat of Him who rules our incomings and outgoings had been issued, and after brief struggle, despite the prayers and entreaties of all who knew and loved her, ,the sufferer 8 spirit took it's flight to that home the Christian believes is the full fillment of life everlasting. Ser vices were conducted at the Bap list church yesterday morning by Rev. Voyles, after which the family left on the noon train fol the west, where she will be laic to rest in the cemetery near her old home at Denver, Carol county Harrison Times.

Easter.

Easter is one of the oldest Christian festivals and, com memorating the central fact oi the Christian faith, has always been celebrated with joy. It was originally festival to the Teu- tonic goddess of Spring, Ostera of Eastra. The Saxons kept the "Pasch" in memory of the great Paschal Lamb. They called it by the same season of the year as their former heather festival.
 In Ireland they have legend that the sun dances on Easter morning. The peasants set a tub of water out of doors the night before, and rise before the break of day to see the sun dance in the water. In olden times eggs were distributed from the churches {: they were regarded as a symbol of the resurrection In Europe, in ancient days, in connection with religion ceremonies it was cus- tomary to celebrate the day by deeds of mercy granting liberty to the captive, freedom to the slave, pardon to the criminal.
 The Puritans, because of the riotous excesses which in their day characterized the observance of Easter, put their ban upon the festival, and as a heritage of this, until comparatively recent years it was not commonly observed by the Protestant churches of America. But happily it ha emerged, and now Catholic and Protestant join in keeping the great feast of our Lords Res- urrection with seemly, holy, reverent joy. It is one of the in- visible bands which are drawing Christians together again. Ap- propriately it comes when nature is rejoicing in it's own resur- rection. It is the "time of the singing of birds" Let it also be forever the time of singing of men and angels.

Big Word Worries Officials

St. Louis, March 17.-The local revenue officials are wor- ried. As they have to be good lawyers, and excellent chemists to cope with the problems before them, it takes considerable to ruff file them; but Commissioner Yerk es dealt them a "sockdolager" yesterday, in his report of Treas ury decisions. It was a word containing 43 letters.
 The instructions to the revenue officials are:
 "You will please inform the manufacturers of watches in your district that in accordance with Section so of Regulations No. 30, the following formula has been authorized for use in man. ufacture of watches: To 100 gallons of alcohol add five gallons commercially pure methyl al- cohol, one and one-half pounds cyanide of potassium and one- eighth of an ounce of acid cal cium magnesium salt of the di- sulpho acids of meta oxytetrae thldiamidamidotriphenyca car bid

Clara Reeves Dead.

Many, many hearts were made sad, indeed, when 1t be- came known Monday at noon that Clara Reeves, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Reeves, had fallen a victim to the grim de- stroyer of death. Wherever this sad message touched it left sor- row, and the expressions of sym pathy for the bereaved ones were many and from the heart. Although never blessed with good health, Clara was bright and cheerful little girl and carried sunshine with her wherever she went. She had always a smile and pleasant word for her friends. Her death comes as a dark shadow to friends and to her relatives who loved her so dearly.
 Death is a hard master. He would take from us our brightest and best, but he cannot ever mar our memory. And when the brittle thread that holds a pure and innocent life like that of Clara Reeves is broken, although it leaves many broken hearts, the grief of the loved ones should be lessened by the knowledge that she has gone where sick. ness, pain and death are un- known.
 When we see precious blossom
 That we tended with such care.
 Rudely taken from our bosom
 How our aching hearts despair! Round the new made grave we finger
 Till the setting sun is low, Telling all our hopes have perished, , With the flower we cherished so,
 We shall sleep, but not forever,
 There will be glorious dawn;
 We shall meet to part, no never,
 On the resurrection morn.

A Fiue Poultry Farm.

An enterprise that is of in estimable worth 10 the people ot this country is T. M. Buells poultry farm, located a mile southeast of Green Forest.
 The poultry industry is a greater source of bringing mon ey into the country than any thing else, and anything that IS calculated to develop the indus- try is of great importance.
 Mir. Bnell has ten pens of chickens of different breeds, one of turkeys and one of ducks, all thoroughbred and carefully cared for. The chicken pens embrace the following: Buff Cochens, Partridge Cochens, White Wyandottes, Light Bram as, Black Breasted Game, Barred Plymouth Rocks, Buff Leghorns, Brown Legorns, White Leghorns, Black Minorcas. Of turkeys he has only the flo nous Bronze breed and of ducks the P Pekins.
 After one has looked through the pens of this fine poultry he naturally inquires as to which breeds are the best. That de- bends upon what you want to do.
 For farm use where you ex- pect to turn your chickens loose to rustic for themselves there is nothing probably that will equal the Brown Leghorns, as they are not only rustlers for themselves but are properly characterised the greatest egg producers in the world. They can go over any ordinary fence.
 For town use, where you keep your chickens confined and ex- pect to feed them altogether, the Rocks and Cochens are the lead CTS, as they are large and adapt ed to confin ement. Both are good egg producers.
 No one should attempt to raise more than one breed on his place unless he proposes to raise for show or to produce eggs for breeding purposes. Then he should confine each breed to it's separate pen during breeding season.
 MT. Buell. tells us the demand for eggs for setting purposes is very large this spring. He can hardly supply it.
 A visit to Mr. Buell's farm is well worth the time of any person interested in raising poultry. He can get information of great value. MT. Buell. never appears happier than when talking to some one interested on the sub- ject of raising fine poultry.
 Ruell's poultry farm has done much to strengthen the poultry industry, bus there is yet wide range for improvement. Con- paratively few people have yet realized what an improvement it means to adopt the raising of thoroughbred chickens.

 A DEGREE IN CHANCERY

The remedy for an absent link in a chain of title is a decree of the chancery court. A decree may be secured re- moving such cloud, pro- vided the present owner can show open, notorious and un- disputed title and possession of such land for a period of seven years by him and his gra ntors prior to the date of filing his petition.
 A decree of chancery is a rather expensive document, but it is often the only rem- edy for a defective title.
 We have several petitions to file for hearing at the July term of the chancery court asking the removal of clouds from the title of lands which we have abstracted. Carr0iI County Abstract Co
