Let Mrs. Griffith tell you about Mi o-na, the greatest prescription for stomach troubles ever written:
 For years l have doctOred for acute gastrtis, but only received slight benefit, and had to be careful what I ate. But, thanks to Mi-o-na stomach tablets, l can now eat anything. Last Christmas, after partaking of a hearty turkey dinner. l was seized with an attack of acute indigestion, and the doctor worked over me for hours be- fore got relief He paid me eight visits before I could say l was well enough to sit up. But since then I have taken Mi-o-na tablets and I have not been troubled since. Before using Mi-o-na l had attacks about every month. - Mrs. Ida Griffith, 1213 C St, Wash ington, D. C.. July ,, 1909.

of corn mas been planted and the set

last year. The oat crop is up in point

The children's exercises at the Meth
odisr church last Sunday, were up to
the highest expectation and desires of
the large audience that was there for
worship. The singing and recitations
were rendered almost faultlessly and
shows much good and wholesome train
ing is being given to the young. The
spiritual power and influence of praises
to God, in we'll rendered music by grown
people touches every thinking individ-
uaI, but when the innocence of little
children is coupled with it becomes
much more impressive blessing to
those who hear and blessing and in
spiration for the little ones engaged.
Such services are growing in import
ance in the minds of the older ones and
the church that overlooks this service
fails to make the best of its opportuni
ties.

The Wheat Crop.

DIR. S. D. Crenshaw, of this place,
who has just travelled all over Adair,
says that it is all mistake about there
being but little wheat in the county.
He says taking as whole the crop is
good. He found several fields that will
not yield as many bushels as common,
but the grain is extra good. In his OBJ
servation of the many wheat crops he
says that Mr.. A. w. Tarter, who lives
In Columbia, but who owns a farm in
the lower end of the county, has the
best crop. He has one field of twenty
acres as good wheat as ever grew. The
Doctor also stated that he met a Mr..
Farris, who lives in the Cane Valley
country, who told him that he would
harvest twice as much wheat as he first
thought, and doubtless there would be
nearly an average crop cut in the coun-
ty. Mr.. J. S Hovious, who lives in
the upper end of the county, was in this
office Friday and stated that there was
but little complaint about wheat in his
section. Many fields he said, look fine

The Liberty team is composed of
gentlemen in every respect They play
the game without trying to rub up a
disturbance and it is a great pleasure to
have such boys to play. There was not
asingle wrangle during the games.
Rosenfield caught is his usual form
and assisted in one of the most thrilling
double plays every pulled off on the
home grounds.
A pleasing feature of both games
was that Columbia has again got TO-
gether winning combination. They
went up against one of the best anna
ture pitchers in Kentucky, in Mr..
Woodrum. He showd his ability but the
boys got to him enough to win.
Young held Liberty safe at all stages
of the game, the team made a few
errors behind him, but whenever an
error was made to put Young in danger
the team would pull off a thrill play
and never let runner have chance
to score.
T. Judd and Wright both made a
sensational on hard chances. Hancock
played his first games with the first
nine and showed he has the nerve to
make a ball player. He played his posi-
ton in good form and got hit in each
game, one three Dagger.
R. Judd made monkeys of the Liber-
ty boys after the. first inning. Suits
worked few innings and held the

Mrs. Martha D. Meader Dead.

On last Monday morning Mrs Martha
ID. ~Meader passed from earthly cares
to her reward in the spiritual world, at
the home of her son, Mr.. w. l. Meader.
OF Campbellsvllle. Death was due to
the infirmities of age, though her stay
upon earth was doubtlessly shortened
by fall three years ago which gave
her much pain and left her cripple.
She was eighty three years old last
April and had been a most energetic
woman all of her life. She was a de-
voted and pains taking mother, con-
sistant member of the Christian Church
and death came as pleasant sleep.
Mr.. w. l. Meader, of Campbellsville,
and Mrs. MCGEE of Somerset, are the
only surviving children. Services were
held in the Christian church by Ed. q.
L. Williams and the body laid to rest in
the Columbia cemetery. She was
reared in this town where most of her
life was spent and many friends were
present topay their respects and witness
the last sad rites The present return
of Mr.. Meader and Mrs. MCGEE to
their old home is a sad one.
A long life has ended, loving moth
er gone, and this community extends
its sympathy to the sorrowing son and
daughter who did all they could to pro-
long life and comfort to their mother
in her declining days.

The ball games played on the grounds

were highly enjoyed and inaugerated

most successful years of the home
team. There was never any contests
on the ground that ELECTED more merit

merely for the victors but as well and
truly for those who were defeated. Not
a dispute or murmer come from the
players. 1t was contest between
gentlemen, between friends who Meth

but whose love for victory brought the
very best plays possible to be made.

Strange But True.

Last October Mr. Tim Collins had a
hive of bees that left for unknown
quarters and so far as he knew without
just cause. Last Saturday evening the
swarm returned and took possession of
the same gum. They remained in it
content until Sunday morning when
they took an airing indicating discon-
tent but returned and now seems to be
located for life and busy gathering
the sweets of this section. 1t is not
known to be the same swarm but every
thing indicates that it is and that the
flight and return was made to escape
the town tax.

Quite an exciting time at the grist

dashed handful of meal in his brother

choake to death. After working with
him for an hour or two he was brought
