ABSOLUTELY FALSE
 REPORT IS DENIED
Doctors of Mena Assert That There Is Not nor Has There Been. Typhcsd Case in This City as
 Far as They Know.

Di. Stanley, the evangelist, who is conducting revival serv- ices at the Christian church here, stated in the office of tue Star last Friday that he had been told that there were at this time forty cases of typhoid fever in Meua.
 h response to the very quick aud positive assertion that it was absolutely untrue, Dr. Stanley said II would be we'll 10 make a public denial, based on the state ments of physicians. Here it is:
 Dr. W. r. Parks, Dr. w. c. Vandiver, Dr. K. r. Watkins and Dr. C. Cochran were called up or interviewed personally in turn. No one of them has any know ledge of a case of typhoid in the town or near 1t, and those who were asked stated further that they had never known of case in Mena.
 Bert Emmert, pharmacist at J. q. Jackson s, who has been filling prescriptions in Mena for more than ten years, says he is quite. sure he has never filled d prescrip- tiou for a typhoid case in that time.
 Dr. F. A. Lee and Dr. Duumau could not be reached by phone at time calls were made.
 This should eifectually quiet a wholly baseless report that, un- denied, would do much harm byI creating false idea among the unII1owinq.

THOUGHTS.


 1 The genial springtime came, and passed away: when To, the summer of life brought forth the tiny bud. that nurtured by parental care, un- folded. leaf by leaf, and bossomed with exotic fragrance. Environed by love that knew no bounds. this little floweret grew apace even mere and more beautiful and angelic as the days went by---until the beau teous form, most glorious were. of all surrounding nature. From tiny bud to full maturity of flower and form, each day was watched with ever growing care until the tendrils lof holy love were intertwined among the hearts of all who came to know herradiant form, whiletothose of closer ties there glowed a par ent's love, as pure and full as e'er bestowed on earthly friend.
 Happy, hapyy days. All sunshine all hope and increasing joy. and each succeeding day saw the bright sun rising to it's course, the herald and forerunner of the past.
 Dreaming, dreaming ever of un- mingled joy, of earthly bliss. No lengthening shadow yet has crossed the portal of our thought to mar the pleasure that seems lasting as the stars of heaven, and in such state of bliss. unheeded as approaching twilight. comes the darkening cloud that casts shadow OCT the land- scape.
 Dear. loving hearts; bewarel
 The shadow grows apace. Higher and higher pile the storm-rent clouds: louder and more threatening the pcals of heavens voice, until at last, with one sharp, fatal stroke, the deadly shaft descends to earth and blighted all 'twere mortal of our cherished flower, and all is hushed and still. Ah, beating heart be still; the crowning act is over: the palid corpse lies palseless, with lips of lurid blue; life has gone out;---in full obedience to the fiat spoken by Almighty God--- from dust thou art. and unto dust thou must return How passing won- derful IS death.
 But emerging from the shadow comes again the bright sunshine of enduring hope. Warm tears of human agony relieve oftimes pent up grief. and a kind Providence has most mercifully decreed that our sorrows recede exactly commensu- rate with the lapse of time: for, were 1t not thus the heart would break.
 Sorrow. lis the lot of all, and from sad experience we pity you.
 Like the sands in the glass. we are passing away; all that are born must die; remembering always, as we must, that though gone before'' these darling treasures of a finite love are not lost; but, like the pearly ralndrsp that fails from heaven to kiss old ccesn's wave, shall rise again and bask forever in the realms of eternal sunshine.

MALT TO Be LABELED
MALT IN THE FUTURE
PROF. LADD WILL STAND FOR Nc
lNFRAcTIoNs OF sEvER-
AGE. LAW.
All Manufacturers Viii 81. Supplied
With Serial Number Which Must Be
Attached to Shipment.

>, ofessor Ladd Of. the agricultural
college, has issued special bulletin
regarding the new beverage law. A
serial number will be given each dis
tiller or manufacturer of beverages,
who registers his product. The bulle-
tin says: ST.:
Not infrequently have we seen
bottles containing various beverages,
presumably malt or beer, from which
the labels have been removed. We
have also seen bottles of malt bearing
the labels of beer. BY the term
malt" I am using it IN the sense OF
which it has generally been. used IN
the past, viz, a product containing
less than 2 per cent Of alcohol by
volume, but such does not necessarily
constitute malt. 49,
1T would seem as though some
dealers are in. the habit e soaking Oh
the malt label and putting on a beer
label of some we'll known brand. In
other cases, beer labels have been re.
moved and the product sold without
any label. or a malt label put on. S.
"This practice must stop and we
desire to warn dealers that the con
tinuation Of this practice will certain.
ly result in prosecution. ,,
Every shipper or jobber sending
beverages into the state of North Da'
kota should see that there is shown
upon the shipping tag the North Da
kota serial number. Unless this ser
ial number is printed upon the tag
where it can be readily seen b. the
agent at the express and Transports
ton Office, the goods may be held uI
for inspection, thus causing unneces
sary delay. -. - -
Transportation companies sending
goods forward which are in violation
of the law are made a party under
the provisions OF this act. Where the
serial number is shown 7pon the tag
| we shall not hold the transportation
companies in any way responsible
| 1t Is very important, therefore, thai
every shipper, who has serial mum
Der make use of the same as indicat
| ed, t.s.@
