STATE FAIR ADVERTISING.

The Democrat notes that some
OF its exchanges are protesting
against the State Fair methods
of advertising and declaring that
the country newspapers should
not give the Fair mention unless
the same is paid for We disagree
with this sentiment and insist
that it is unworthy the consider.
alton of a reputable publisher of
a country paper. A little refec.
tlon on the part of country edi
tors will convince them that it
would be a financial impossibility
for the Fair Board to pay every
paper ia the state for an adver-
tisement If it could, the amount
to eacn would be triflng. 1t is
too small matter for the men
who make the country press a
power, to complain about.
The State Fair is public 10.
stitution ano is financed largely
by the taxpayers. 1t has accom-
plished much for the good of the
farmers of Illinois aud like any
other worthy institution deserves
the support of the press. We do
not believe farmer can attend
the Illinois State Fair and not
come home better farmer. He
is indeed a failure as an agricul
turlst who views the splendid
exhibits produced by combina
tion of soil, labor and brains, who
inspects the machinery brought
forth from the mind of genius,
who sees the proud accomplish
ments of Illinois Agriculture and
does not feel an inspiration to-
ward better methods. The real
farmer leaves the Fair with a
mental resolution to get in the
game and do his part in some Of
these exploits. Better farming
and better farmers follow. Bet.
ter farmers make better citizens
and in the end we are all bene-
fitted. 1t is a duty of the press
10 help bring about better condi
tions. The idea that we must
have little pay for everything
does not do the newspaper pub.
Usher any good but belittles the
profession.
The State Fair is an Illinois
institution, as much ours as the
state house, the arsenal, the
charitable institutions or the
National guard. Boost it and be
liberal. The trouble with some
newspaper men is that they be-
come so absorbed in piling up
wealth that they grow sordid and
narrow.-Carmi Democrat, Aug.

Zion Baptist Notes

Zion Baptist church has taken
another step in advance under
the administration of Rev. A. w.
Williams. In the business meet
ing Of the church on last Friday
evening the church held its an
nual election Of the Sunday
School Superintendent teachers
and other officers. For superin-
tendent Mrs. r. B Williams, as
sstan Superintendent Walter
Wells, secretary Pearl Carr. as
sistant secretary Miss Mable
Bean. treasurer Harrison Clark,
organst Mrs. Mamie Robertson,
librarians Miss Jennie Lucas,
Henry Mccullough and Noah
Williams, teachers, Messrs Har.
rison Clark ard John Vannhook,
Mrs. Mary Hudson, Carrie Nc.
Cullough. Mamie Robertson, La
cille BarkSdale, Gray, Josie Ban,
ford and Susie Houston We see
no reason why that the schools
should not be led on to success
under the leadership of Mrs. R.
B. Williams with the efficiency Of
her corps of teachers.
She has served in the capacity
of superintendent before. She
was superintendent Of the Salem
Baptist Sunday School, Cham.
paign, Illinois. So she enters in
to the this office with the neces.
sary experience to assure US Of
the desired success.
Mrs. Williams is a great lover
of children and indeed knows
we'll how to get them and hold
them after she has gotten them
Rev. Williams aud his efficient
wife have done great work in
Zion Baptist church and Sunday
School these past two year that
they have been there. They are
to be commended for their work
and falthfulness as pastor and
vile. Rev. A. w. Williams has
done what no other pastor has
ever done at Zion. The church
under his leadership has remov-
ed from Office and leadership
some of those that should content
themselves to follow and not to
lead.
Rev. Williams is an able preach
er of the gospel, Many other
churches would do we'll if they
had as able gospel preachers as
the Rev. Williams

has kept the kidneys in good health
since can be relied upon to perform the
same work in other cases. Read this;
Mrs N. NJ Nelson, Is West street,
Barre, VT, says, u hold the same high
opinion Of Doan's Kidney Pills to-day as
when I publicly recommended them over
eleven years ago. AT that time ! was
suffering from kidney trouble which had
been brought on by an attack Of la
grippe. | steadily grew worse. and the
lightest homework tired me. II were
on my feet for an hour OF 80 sharp
pains across my back compelled me to
sit down Then other symptoms Of kid
ney complaint appeared and was really
in bad way. / spent over one hundred
dollars for doctors prescriptions and
medicines of various kinds. but as
found no relief, J became discouraged.
One day my husband brought home a
box ofDoan.s Kidney Pills from browns
drug store and told me TO try them. A
few doses brought the hest Of results,
and continued taking the remedy until
entirely relieved. My children have also
used this preparation with splendid re-
suits. and, in view Of these experiences
! advise other kidney sufferers to give
it trial.
