A GOOD REASON
Barton People Can Tell You Why
1t Is So

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause of
disease, and that is why the cures are
laways lasting. This remedy streng-
thens and tones up the kidneys, help
ing them to drive out of the body the
liquid poisons that cause backache,
headache and distressing kidney and
Urinary complaints. Barton people
testify to permanent cures.
George Barstow, Lake Street. Bar
ton, VT, says: "My kidneys were dis
ordered for some time and as the re-
suit suffered from a lameness in the
small of my back, accompanied by E
steady dull ache in my loins. 1t was
almost impossible for me to lift the
lightesr object and I could hardly
arise after sitting for any length of
time. / thought that all my suffering
came from my kidneys and when
Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to
my attention, l procured supply at
Barron's drug store. l began the r
use and they brought me prompt re-
lief. I have no hesitation in recon-
mending Doan's Kidney Pills.

Public School Opening

The Green Forest public school opened Monday morning with an enrolment of 175, giving every evidence of a pleasant and prosperous term.
 Following an address in the shape of heart to heart talk from the principal, c. c. Denny, former principal of the Berry vile public school, delivered a very happy address to the pupils, encouraging them to make the best of the rare opportunities now before them. He congratu- lated the people of Green Forest and the pupils of the school especially upon the return here of Mr. Burney. He said no school in the state would be not ed for more thorough and practi- cal work. MT. Burney enjoys a state wide repu g Ii on for throughness in his work His recommendation will admit with out examination to any of the colleges of the state.
 The school moved off with about as much order as if it had been organized for a month.
 Room 1, first grade, is in charge of Mrs. H. P. Burney. She re- ports an enrolment of 35. Room 9, second and third grades. is pre- sided over by Miss Req Map'es. There are II in her room. Room three, fourth grade, is taught by Miss Gertie Johnson. She has 9. Room four, comprising the fifth and sixth grades, is assign ed 10 Miss Ruby Nunnally, hay ing an enrolment of 37. Room five, the seventh and eight grades and the high school, come under the care of Mr. Bur- ney. Here an enrolment of 3j is reported.
 It would hardly seem that there is anything materially lacking for making the present term of school all we would have it. It would not likely be the fault of the teachers should it be re- corded as a failure, for the en- tire faculty is made up of teach CTS holding first grade licenses and each has a record as a sue . cessful teacher, except the princi- pal who holds the only state license in Carroll county.
 We are inclined to expect great results from this term of school.

Eld. P. M. Shipley hands US a communication concerning his meeting at Zion Hill, correcting an erroneous impression he thinks would be left by our re- ference to the denomination lest week. He says that he represents an evangelical church known as Free Methodists of North Amer ica, which should not be con- founded with the independent" or "come-out" Holiness people. The Free Methodists have had an organization for the past half century and count membership of more than 3O,O00 in the Uni ted states and foreign countries. It supports forty annual confer ences in the United States and has fifty missionaries on foreign fields. With reference to his Zion Hill church and meeting Eld.

 One of the saddest accidents it has been our duty to record for long while happened at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Callen out on Route 3 on last Friday. Their little two-year old son Gerald strayed out into the lot and was kicked by horse in the center of the forehead, the blow crushing the skull, bursting one of the eyebalIs from it's socket and severing the bridge of the nose. In this frightful condition the little fellow is said to be giv- ing evidence of recovery. Ger aid is an exceptionally sweet child and the accident has not only prostrated it's fond parents but has cast gloom over the community.
 Col. I. A. Jones and Hon. w. R.

Mir. Phillips started in contending that the difference is 82 miles while the Colonel thought it only seven.
