.H'HE whole doctrine of Devoe
 Lead and Zinc Paint turns on these three points:
 1. It is all paint and true paint. 2. It is the strongest and goes- farthest paint.
 3. It is full measure.
 Because these three things are true, Devoe Lead and Zinc Paint takes least gallons for the job; looks best at the time; lasts longer.
 There is no such argument for any other paint; there is no other such paint; the man who uses Devoe gets the best he can get, in paint.

The Fly Nuisance.

It has been proven conclusive- ly that the house-fly is a carrier of disease. Typhoid fever is very frequently spread by the fly. The merchants Association Committee on Pollution of the Waters of New York has issued 8 "Fly Poster" giving splendid "Rules for Dealing with the Fly Nuisance:"
 Keep the flies away from the sick, especially those ill with contagious diseases. Kill every fly that strays into the sick room. His body is covered with disease germs.
 Do not allow decaying material of any sort to accumulate on or near your premises. All refuse which tends in any way to fermentation, such as bedding straw, paper waste and vegetable matter should be dis posed of or covered with lime or kerosene oil.
 Screen all food.
 keep all receptacles for cab bage carefully covered and the cans cleaned or sprinkled with oil or lime.
 See that your sewage system is in good order; that it does not leak, is up-to- date and is not exposed to flies.
 Keep all stable manure in vault or pit, screened or sprink l. ed with lime, oil or other cheap preparation.
 Pour kerosene into the drains.
 Screen all food exposed for sale.
 Screen all windows and doors, especially the kitchen and din : ing room.
 Burn Pyrethrum powder in the house to kill the flies. Don't forget if you see flies, their breeding place is in nearby filth. It may be behind the door, under the table or in the cuspi- dor.
 If there is no dirt and filth there will be no flies.

Youngblood-P atterson

On Saturday evening, Aug. 14th, at 2 o'clock, at the home oi the brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. Patterson of Shaver, Boone County, Ark, a very pretty wed- ding service took place, in which MT. John R. Youngblood and Miss Elizabeth J. Patterson were the contracting parties. Rev. Jno. A. Womack of Har- rison officiated. MT. Youngblood is a young man of good moral habits, and of more than ordi- nary ability. When the Cuban war broke out he was a vol unteer, and later went to the Philippines where he has worked himself up to the rank of 1st Lieutenant, and in addition to this he holds position with the Philippine Constabutary.
 Miss Patterson is a bright, intellectual young lady, and comes of an excellent family. Mir. and Mrs. Youngblo cd will visit with relatives and friends for few weeks after which they return to the Island. Harrison Times.

 The smiling face of George Birkes, now retired merchant of Leslie, greeted his good old friends here this week.
 Mrs. John McCracken and son Ewing have been called to Kingston on account of the seri- ous illness of her mother Mrs. Isadore Mcdonnell.
 Harry Dugger, lately honor ably discharged from the naval service, has been a visitor in Green Forest during the past week. He has been away two years.
 E. c. Dooling has been experi- menting with the growth on his fine Percheron colt. He has put 80 pounds on it in the past month. It now weighs 610 pounds and is a cracker-jack.
 While many people are talking of their shortage in corn crop, Bud Dooling tells us his Dry creek farm will beat that of last. He has had big crop. Early we'll cultivated corn seems to have matured we'll, especi ally on the bottoms:
 Ewing McCracken, two miles southwest of town, will have a public sale Saturday, Sept. 4, at which he will sell a team of mares, harness. wagon, 9 sheep, 2l hogs, 10 acres of corn, 4 acres of peas, blows, harrow, farm im- plements and household goods and kitchen furniture.
 The output of the Green For est Canning Go. will not exceed two cars this season, about fifty short of expectation. The Can ming Company has been hit hard, :, but no harder than the people. The only way to do it is to make up next season what has been lost this season. The proper de- termination will do it. Time is worse than lost that is spent in grieving over spilled milk.
 All patrons of tho Green For est public school and all others who may be interested in edu- cational affairs are cordially in- vited to come out to the Baptist church on the night of Septem- Der the 3rd. There will be a general discussion of school af- fairs by the County Examiner and a particular discussion of Green Forest school affairs by the school board, Prof. Burney and others. Everybody come.
 One of the worst neglected cemeteries in the whole country is the one out at New Home. This old burying ground is the last home of several hundred of the good people that once populated this section and it is nothing less than a shame that those interested in it should be so forgefful as to let it grow up into an almost impenetrable mass of bushes, briers and grass. Friday, Sept. 8, has been set to clean up this grave yard and it is expected that every cue who can will help, go or send a hand.

He who keeps neat yard or a clean and thrifty garden is es- sentially a public benefactor, for not only is it a source of pleas- ure to the passerby, but the good example which is set is quite likley to be followed by his neighbor.

Washington's Plague Spots lie in the low, marshY bottoms of the Potomac, the breeding ground of ma- laria germs. These germs cause chllls, fever and ague, biliousness, jaundice, lassitude, weakness and general de- bility and bring suffering or death to thousands yearly. But Electric Bittcrs never fail to destroy them and cure malaria troubles. .sThey are che best ail-round tonic and cure for malaria ever used.' writes K. NJ. James, of Louellen, s. c.
