Oh YOuSe Blows Up.

The heading of this may be a
little misleading, but the fact is
that the boiler of one of his drill
rigs exploded on Wednesday of
last week, and scared Ol. out of
a years growth. He is drilling
a deep we'll for Scott Jarrett, out
on the latter's place west of Blue
Mound, and for some unaccount-
able reason the blamed bottom of
the boiler blew out. Nobody

Cause for Alarm.
Loss Of Appetite or Distress After
Eating Symptom That
Should not Be Disregarded.

Appetite is just a natural de-
sire for food. Loss of appetite
or stomach distress after eating
indicate indigestion or dyspepsia.
Over-eating is habit very dam
gerous to persons good general
health.
1t is not what you eat but
what you digest and assimilate
that does you good. Some OF
the strongest, heaviest, and
healthiest persons are moderate
eaters.
There is nothing that will
cause more trouble than a dis
ordered stomach, and many peo-
pie daily contract serious mala-
dies simply through disregard or
abuse of the stomach.
We urge all in Baxter Springs
who suffer from any stomach de-
rangement, indigestion, or dys-
pepsia, whether acute or chronic,
to try Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets,
with the distinct understanding
that we will refund their money
without question or formality,
if after reasonable use of this
medicine, they are not perfectly
satisfied with the results. We
recommend them to our custo-
mers every day, and have yet to
hear of any one who has not
been benefited by them. We
honestly believe them to be with
out equal. They give very
prompt relief, aiding to neutral
ize the gastric juices, strengthen
the digestive organs, to regulate
the bowels, and thus to promote
perfect nutrition, and eradicate
all unhealthy symptoms.
We urge you to try a 25c. box
of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets,
which gives IS days treatment
At the end of that time, youi
money will be returned to you il
Won are not satisfied. Of course
in chronic cases length of treat
ment varies. For such cases
we have two larger sizes, which
sell for SOC. and S1.00. Remem'
Der, you can obtain Rexall Rem
edies in this community only al
our store-The Rexall Store

Booster Day.
Extensive Preparations Being
Made for Saturday, Dec. 2.

If preparation for an event
has anything to do with the sue
cess of that event, then the next
Booster Day, Saturday, Decem-
,ber 2, in this city, ought to be
crackerjack from every point OF
view. Mr.. Merchant in every
line is laying in a big line OF
seasonable goods, not only for
the holiday trade, but for the
trade which is always due at this
season of the year, and visitors
Ito town on next Booster Day will
be treated to a sight in the way
of huge stocks.
A great many of the merchants
have assured us that it is not go
ing to be a question of big prof
its on any one article, but very
small profits on each article in
stock, that is going to be the
moving idea in this next Booster
Day.
A we'll appointed rest room
will be found on the main busi-
ness street, and a corps of mighty
pretty ladies will attend to the
registration. There will be a
long and attractive prize list, and
every prize will be worth getting.
On Booster Day, as on every
Saturday now, the people from
the country will be given free
admission to the Cosy Theatre,
which will render a very inter-
esting and attractive program
during the afternoon.
Don't forget the date. There
is no danger of you forgetting
the place, for Baxter Springs is
the place where the Booster Day
idea originated in this section OF

Wheat is looking mighty fine
this fall. The acreage is large,
and the stand is extra good. But
the farmers sure did have a hard
time getting their wheat in this
year. The hay season Tapped
over onto the wheat planting
season. Another difficulty was
the heavy growth of crab grass
which came on after the dry sea-
SON was over. In many instances
the farmers were compelled to
plow their ground over, and in
scores of cases they had to keep
discs at work keeping the grass
cut back. But if nothing hap
pens to the crop they will be am
ply repaid for their time and
trouble.
