His Dear Old Mother,

my dear old mother who is now
eighty three years old, thrives on Elec-
trio Bitters," writes w. B. Brunson, of
Dublin, Ga. "She has taken them for
about two years and enjoys an excel
lent appetite, feels strong and sleeps
WELL" That's the way Electric Bitters
affect the aged, and the same happy
results follow in all cases of female
weakness and general debility. Weak,
punny children too, are greatly

Human Hearts,"

To a we'll filled house, the old but
always popular play, Human Hearts"
appeared last hight at the Keylor
Grand. The play was good and the
acting good, although there was some
what of a STACEY effect in some of
the lines of the minor characters.
AS Tom Logan Lincoln Plummer
made the hit of the evening. His act
ing is clever and his stage presence
good. Ruth Larkins,'' played by Ross
Emerson, was also a strong member
of the cast and took her part III credit
able style.
Human Hearts is a play full of in
terest and pathos. Comedy is not lack
ing but the other overbalances it. The
interest is we'll sustained from curtain
to curtain and it is a play which will
always be welcome here.

Attorney Gose, for the plaintiff, gave
the Statesman in the recent libel suit
against the former manager when
counsel said something like this, to
witness on the stand: 1T is a fact,
isn't it, Mr.. LaDue, that the papers had
been running a lot of dead stuff and
that the Statesman is published as a
four page paper because the manage
ment believed the people would rather
have four pages of good live news
than eight or 10 pages of dead natter
That is ct, Mr.. Gose. We will put
out four pages of live news all the time
and more When conditions justify It..
and we charge the people just about
half what the other papers charge
and they got their moneys worth in

is going into every home in the city.
1t is within the reach of all, and gives
all the live local news all the time
written in the best style, giving cor
rect accounts of local affairs, with the
best condensed Geographic news of the
world. And it endeavors to work for

Baron, Rogue, La, March 29.-Ihe
cotton boil weevil IS unusually num-
.erous and destructive this year, ac-
cording to report by DR.. W. D.
Hunter, in charge Of the boil sweevh
investigation for the United States de-
partment of agriculture. He says:
.aThe conditions throughout the
past winter have been unusually ia
vorable for the Information of the
BOIL weevil. Tt two critical condi-
tons for successful Information, tenn
perature and dryness, have been as
favorable as they will probably ever
be.
The mild winter and spring is
having the effect OF causing an unus-
ually early e1aergence.
.sThe conditions indicate clearly
that weevils will be unusually abun-
dant in the cotton fields, and that
great damage is expected. Some con-
ditions, for instance, dry weather dur
ing June and July after the cotton
plants are well started, may serve TO
check the insect
