In Memory OfMr. James Blissitt.

Once again has the death angel
visited Tishomingo CO., Miss,
and plucked one of its most time
honored citizens in the person OF
Mr.. James Blissitt. Mr.. Blissitt
was born June 3 1916 in Frank
lin co. Ala. and died Aug %. 1909
in Tishomingo co. Miss, near
Iuka where he had lived for a
long time. Mr. Blissitt was one
of the much loved and ever hon
ored Confederate veterans of Ala.
In 1869 he was married to Miss
Araininta Richardson, who has
been his life time companion, ev-
er sharing with him his Joys and
sorrows alike until God said 1t
is enough, come up higher. !"
Their union had always been one
long sweet dream, blessed with
both sons and daughters to com
fort them in their old age. Mr.
Blissitt became a Christian in
1888 and joined the M E Church
South of which hei remained a
faithful member until his death.
In 1870 he came to Tishomingo
co. Miss, where he has lived ev-
er since. He was a kind, thought
full husband, loving father, and
a generous friend. He leaves his
aged companion and 7 children to
mourn the loss. May our Heav-
emily Father be their comfort and
give them grace to bear them up
in this great trial. Ere long each
of us will pay the same debt and
happy will be the reunion on the
other shore. We could not say to
this dear companion and children
weep not for we know that though
the days maysb filled with busy
hours and the months may come
and go, yet around that hearth
stone when the vesper stars shall
rise, no smile from this aged low.
ed one will greet their weary
eyes. But God knows best and
though sometimes it seems that
He aff1icts us sorely. We know
He loves us and permits only
those things that tend to make ms
love him most to come into our
lives. And when we shall lave
finished our work here and our
lives shall cease to be, all will be
well FIR there will be nothing
wanting in Heaven.

That Lame Back Means
Kidney Disease
And to Relieve the Lame and Aching Back,
You Must First Relieve the Kidneys

There is no question about that
at all--for the lame and aching
back is caused by a diseased con-
dition of the kidneys and bladder.
1t is only common sense, any way
that you must cure a condition
by removing the cause of the con-
dition. And lame and aching back
are not by any means the only
symptoms of arrangement of the
kidneys and bladder. There are a
multitude of well-known and I'M
mistakable indications of q more or
less dangerous condition. Some of
these are, for instance: Extreme
and unnatural lassitude and weari-
ness, nervous irritability, heart ir-
regularity, nerves on EDGE" sleep
1essness and inability to secure
rest, scalding sensation and sedi-
ment in the urine, Inflammation of
the bladder and passages. etc.

the crime that ended his life.
His life failure is a strong argu-

MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Sc

lect.

"Fix me up something to knock the
malaria, DOCTOR" remarked a sallow-
faced, sickly looking man, entering a
prominent physicians Office the other
day.
The doctor stepped to his medicine
case, took down a couple of bottles, mixed
preparation which he handed to the
patient with the customary advice to
shake we'll and follow directions and
resumed his seat.
"Such cases are frequent" replied the
doctor in answer to question. "The
warm days and damp, chilly nights are
certain malaria breeders and are most
serious in those who have neglected to
keep their stomach, liver and bowels in
good condition. Such persons are full
of the impurities on which the malaria1
germ thrives, and it is from this class
that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's
Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim
most of their victims whenever these dis
eases are prevalent.
The proper way to guard against the
ma1arial germ and the serious diseases
which follow it is to get into good condi-
ton by taking reliable remedy that
will keep the bowels clear and the liver
healthy, and to continue with it at fire.

Great Wool Pool to be Formed.

Queer finds it too risky TO store wool

State Guards Comes up To The
Requirement Of The
Dick Law.

Kentucky mili.ia will be able to
come up to the requirements of the
Dick bill and will get the allowance
made by the National Government for
use in this state. 1t also will not be
necessary TO divide up the three regi-
ments, as was thought some time
ago would have to be done. Adju-
cant General p. p. Johnston said
that the danger of having to form
the various companies, now in the
three regiments, into two regiments,
in order to comply with the national
laws has passed and the three regi-
ments will be left intact. Inspectors
are now engaged in examining the va
rious companies 10 ascertain their
standing and condition. Gen. john
SION said he was confident that the
companies now in the service will
come up to the standard sufficiently
to entitle Kentucky TO the $4,000 a
year which the National Government
allows this state.
The National law requires twelve
companies to a regiment and as none
of the three regiments in Kentucky
has twelve companies it was thought
that it might be necessary to have
only two regiments in the entire
state. This would have broken up
the First Regiment as it probably
would have been necessary 10 put
part of the companies from the First
Regiment into the Second and part
into the Third Regiment. Gen. John

treatment OF the husband by the wife
has increased 16O9.S per cent. No less
than 1916 of the divorces granted to
men during the period reviewed by
the bureau were for creulty on the
part of the wife.
AS to the form that this cruelty to
the poor husband takes the Census
Bureau is silent 1t is not the business
of the statistical department to delve
as deep as that into the causes. But
it surely must have been a sufficiently
cruel type of cruelty to induce an
American judge to grant a divorce
to the injured husband. Now that
trained in the gymnastic classroom at
the schoolhouse and the anaemic wom-
an is becoming a rarity, 1t behooves the
American husabnd to practice diploma
in the home or take lesseon in the
art for lodging rolling pins and broom
handles.
But with her increased ability to
chastise her husband, as shown by tie
Census Bureaus figures, there has
also come, it is really to bad to have
to record, an increase in a vice that
has been considered one peculiarly
belonging to men-that of drinking
! to excess. The figures show that the
increase of drunkenness among womsi
as shown by the divorces granted for
this cause, is 554.5 per cent. In
fact this reason for divorce comes
second in the list, according to the
census statistics.
The men have still a little the
best of it in. the race for divorce on
the alcohol line, for, while the in
crease among women has eben record
ed as 554.5 per cent, the drunkenness
OF husbands has increased 699.9 per
cent.
1t Is appalling to note that in the
United States 70 divorces are annually
granted to every 100000 of population
To the same number of persons, Ire
land annually grants less than l, En-
gland 2, Italy 3, Austria l. Scotland 4,
Germany Is, France 20, Switzerland
and Japan 215. Switzerland, with a
ratio of 80, comes next to the United
States, but this country wins by big
majority in the general run.
