IN the north room In the Academy
OF Music building. 1t is by far
the handsomest outfit ever brought
to the valley.
We have a post card from Mr..
M. d. Isenberg, the st. Louis at
torney, who is at present at Long
Beach, California. He leaves
there for Oregon and Washington
in a few days.
1t is said that the railroad peo-
pie are thinking of putting on an
accommodation train to run from
the valley to st. Louis and back
every day. Like the Arcadia
train of years ago.
Mr.. P. w. Whitworth, we are
sorry to say, has not been in the
best of health lately. There has
been some improvement, however,
and we hope 500 to record his
perfect restoration.
Presiding Elder Crow will
preach at Fort Hill church, Tues
day evening, August 23d, and
wishes to meet every member of
the M. e. Church, South.
L. F. ASPLEY, Pastor.
Corset Parlors-All Styles. Fit
any figure; flexible side; patented
back something unique. They fit
we'll, look we'll, wear we'll. Ladies
invited to call and examine.
IRMA DUNN, Ironton, Mo.
After enjoying several weeks of
as rare weather as ever made the
heart rejoice and the appetite
abound, we are in recompense, I
suppose, made to loosen our COL
lars and rejoice in the cry of the
ice man.
Roy M. Reel returned from the
Missouri Pacific hospital in st.
Louis Sunday evening. His con-
dition is much improved but he
will probably go back to the hos
pital for a few days the latter part
of the week.
County Collector J. N. Lewis
asks us to tell the public that he
now has in his possession the tax
books for 1910, and is prepared to
issue receipts for state and county
taxes for the current year. Call
early and avoid the rush.
We understand that lots of peo-
pie who have come to the valley
this summer expecting to remain q
week or more have been compelled
to 60 home on the next train be-
cause they could not secur &C.
commodations. Too bad.
A barbecue and horse show will
be given at Thompson Blanton's
in the Flatwoods Saturday, Sep
TENDER Sd. Mr.. Blanton's genuine
hospitality is known to all and
every person who attends is as
sured Of a royal good time.
While driving to the Heights
last Saturday evening G.. w,
Clarkson had his buggy turned
over and his face and head were
badly skinned. A lady who was
in the buggy, fortunately, escaped
injury. Mr.. Clarkson is not much
hurt.
The Missouri Baptist Assembly
closed it's session on Arcadia
Heights Sunday evening. The
session was in every sense a com.
plete success and Fall are very en-
thusiastic. Everybody agrees that
the Assembly is a fixture in the
valley and the possibilities of the
future are unlimited.
An inch of rain fell in an hour
between three and four o'clock
Sunday afternoon. 1t was a local
affair, however, and seemed to be
confined almost wholly to the val
ley. We understand there was no
rain beyond Arcadia, and the dust
was hardly settled at the northern
limits of Pilot Knob.
To Master Eugene Whitworth,
son of l. G. Whitworth, we VIZ un-
der obligations for the finest
watermelon we've seen this sea-
son, presented last Monday morn
ing. Eugene is in the watermelon
business this season and if you
want the best in that line call on
him or have his wagon leave one
at your door.
To Mrs. A. M. Robertson, of
Jackson, Mo-, formerly Mrs. Sarah
Riley, of lronton, we are indebted
for a box of the only real good
apples we have seen this year.
They certainly were most accepts
able and we return sincere thanks
to the donor. The apples were
from an orchard on Mr.. Robert
sons farm, near Whitewater.
Fred. Riddle, who is now in the
sign painting business in San
Antonio, Texas, visited friends
and relatives in Ironton several
days of last week. Fred went
to San Antonio from Chicago for
the benefit of his health some six
years ago, and we r glad to say
that the Texas cline has done all
for him that he expected it to.
One day last week DR.. Newberry
met with a painful accident which
came near costing him the loss OF
his eyes; an electric light bulb ex-
ploded and the particles of glass
filled his eyes. 1t was necessary
for him to go to st. Louis to have
some of the particles removed. In
all, So pieces of glass we're re-
moved from his eyes.-Frederick-
