a Broad Discrimination.

There is an elder of a certain
church upstate who thinks that things
are only half done or not well started
in which he has no voice. At
prayer meeting he offered thanks for
the safe return from their vacation
Of the minister and his wife. With
proper dignity and in loud voice he
said: 30 Lord, we thank thee for
bringing our pastor safe home, and
his dear wife, too, o Lord, for thou
preservest man and beast."-Success

that the latter finds it difficult to win

breeder has to keep everlastingly

Experience with Geese.

The Brown African has proved the
best all things considered. The Tou-
louise are a little heavier, but are not
as prolific. The African hardly ever
fails to raise two broods a year for us
and we do not give them extra care.
In winter they live on hay, in summer
on pasture. They have a stream of
water to run to at all times. We pluck
at each new moon during warm wealth
er, if feathers are ripe then. The
reason we pluck at new moon, our ex-
perience has led us to believe the
feather will start and grow faster than
when plucked at full or at old moon.

Death of Infant.

On the 9Th of June at 1925, the dark
winged angel of death crossed our
threshold and called from papa and
mama the flower Of the home, little
Herbert. He died after twelve days of
the most intense suffering, which looks
hard that it should fall to the lot of a
babe, but without murmur he bore
the ravages of the brain fever in its
worst form for exactly twelve days,
and then God, seeing his little mission
was already filled upon this earth call
ed him to fill vacant place in an an
gelic band at His right hand. Her
bert was aged ten months and seven
days.

And never can return,
But living by Gods holy will,
We will meet him in the end.

TO EvADE LAW
Peculiar Condition Now Brew
ing In SeQuatchie County.

Frank W. Lewis. who gets up the
column of Political Chat" in the
Nashville Tennessean. writes the fol-
lowing regarding condition OF az
fairs now brewing in Sequatchie
county, which is an outrage on law
abiding people:
1t is claimed that W. p. Conger, OF
McMinnville has discovered a spot in
Sequatchie county in the Cumberland
mountains Of East Tennessee where he
can operate saloon without violating
the prohibition or four mile law. 1t
is claimed that there is neither
church nor schoolhouse within four
miles of the spot and that Mr. Conger,
having leased all the land within ra-
dius of four miles, is now master OF
the situation and being such, intends
to establish and operate saloon there.
Large quantities Of whiskey is at Nc
Minnyille to be used in that saloon.
The story goes that regular hack lines
will be established to nearby towns
for the purpose of transporting liz
uors. Thus, having a monopoly on
the retail sale of liquors within the
state. Conger hopes to mako a large
amount of money before the legisla-
ture can interfere with him, which
cannot be done until the next regular
session, January, 1911.
In commenting on the incident the
Knoxville Journal and Tribune says;
THE story may be true one and
it may not. If true, that man is get
ting ready to reap harvest of trouble,
and he will find that reaping time will
not be long delayed.
1t is the characteristic Of the liquor
dealers to resist the operation of those
laws which tend to restrain the privi-
lege formerly accorded to them. 1t has
/ been so since the first prohibition
measures were enacted. When the
first four mile law was framed in 1878,
forbidding the sale of liquor within
four miles Of an educational institu-
ton, in Franklin county the liquor
people rose up in protestation declar-
/ ing the measure to be an outrage.
| When the four mile law was extended
in its provisions so as to protect every
schoohouse and church outside of in.
corporated towns or cities the Liquor
dealers protested, and so on the strug.
gle continued until laws were passed
eliminating both the sale and manu-
facture from the entire state. AT ev'
cry step and at all times the dealers
have not hesitated to evade and, il
need be, violate the law, They have
no regard for the spirit of the law
The only reason they respect the Law
is because of the penalty that may b.
attached. Even then they violate i
they can see where their profits viii
justify it.
Now, here is man who is fiyint
right in the face of public sentiment
While the letter of the law may no
apply to the particular spot in Sequat
chic county which he has discovered
the spirit does apply just the same a
it does to any other section and if h
does as he threatens to do he will of
fend the whole state. He will be NOR
ally guilty if not legally SO, and a
the Journal and Tribune says he viii

have some respect for the law, for jus
such contempt as exhibited by him ha
; turned the public against the liquo
dealers His action will tend to inten
.. sify the public feeling.

Surprising,
What Kodol Will Do
For you, when you need it. But the longer you neg
lect Indigestion, the you will suffer before Kodo
can restore Good Digestion.

And. of course, indigestion II neg
lected long enough. brings on seri-
GUS diseases in which Kodol cannot
benefit you Some of these there
is no help for at all.
There are, in fact, very few all
ments which cannot be traced d.
rectly to impure blood. And inn
pure blood is always due to dis
ordered stomach.
Use Kodol and prevent Nervous
Dyspepsia.
Kodol will effectually assist Ma
ture to secure a complete restora.
ton OF good digestion. It does
this by at once digesting all food
in the stomach and keeping 1t di.
gested, until the stomach is rested
and can resume its own work. Ko-
dol removes the cause-and the
effect quickly removes itself.
When it is recalled that Apo
plexy, Heart Disease, Cancer-and
even Consumption-are due to
poor digestion and poisons thus
transmitted to the blood, and
throughout the systematic impor-
lance of maintaining good diges-
ton is at once realized.

it will do, we would not guarantee

There can be no harm in trying
something that may do you a great
