CIVIC IMPROVEMENT
FOR GREENWOOD
To all the Public Spirited Citi1enS of
Greenwood.

We, the Woman's Club Of Greenwood
are organized for the purpose Of being
Of real boncht to our town, And with
that end in view the Civic Section OF
the Club have asked the town pap ers
for the use of one column in each for
the next few months that we may pub
lish In IL anything which will make for
the health and the beauty Ur our town,
The Section has Instructed me, as
president of the Clah to write this
article asking all whe can, to help us by
sending to Mrs. 7. A, Malone, ChAir-
mon OF the Civic Section, ali iuforma-
ti0n they have or and during tho next
six months, which will help us to in
form ourselves and the whole town
as TO how TO have healthy and boauti-
full town. We feel that this is particu-
Iarly appropriate work for women, as
we are supposed to be sekccps and
this is really the housekeeping depart
ment of the town.
The public spirited men Of Green
woodland challenge any town to
show more Of thaB class II men have
made her one Of the busicst, most up~to-
date, and altogether desirable towns In
the South from business point OF
view; and we believe that IL is just as
much our business to bring Ii up TO the
notch in the point oR cleanliness and
health, and beauty, aa It Is the business
OF any woman, after her huH band has
built the house TO make it beautiful,
clean, and loyeablo home.
So II there be those among yon who
think We are getting out Of a woman's
sphere when we undertake to- do some
thing for our town, we beg you to rem
enber that tho town Ia cur civic home,
and that all any Of us ean do to make
her an attractive, beautiful, and
healthy place Of residence, lies right In
the line of our duty rs home makers.
And rs n woman must call her husbands
attention to the things in the home
which make against it In the way Of
health, and purit, and beauty, 30 1t is
the duty of the womo Of town to call
the attention Of tho men to such things
as make against the health, aud purity,
and beauty Of that town.
In calling on the physician, especial
ly to help US In the campaign OF educa-
tiod al IL were tfor we feel the need Of
education along these lines as the rest
OF you must feel with regard to all
which will benefit our town along the
lines wa speak Of IL does not mean
that we think they are more Interested
than any other public spirited citizen,
but that hey kdow 80 much more than
the rest Of US to what will benefit the
town 1t the point 81 health; and we
F5e. that when we find the secret
to civic hea' shall at the same time
find the paths whicqlt TO purity and
beauty. Then, too, the pny.Inlans
daily life brings him in contact W.

Thrift Means More

than most persons realize. A thrifty
person is economical, not alone Of bis
money, but of his strength, his health,
hi7 energy and his mental powers. The
thrifty man squanders neither his sub
stance nor his vitality. But the actua!
accumulation of money Ia the outward
and visible sign that man ia really
thrifty, and, although thrift means
more than just saving to large ex
tent, saving is the measure Of mans
progress and is evidences that he Is
the best kind Of training for thrift In
general. The Bank of Lefore wants TO
help every person in Greenwood and
vicinity ~ ."-ve systematically. We
offer you absolute securfsy. and 4 per

STOMACH DISTRESS
AND DYSPEPSIA co
Heartburn, Gas and Indigestion Van
ish and Your Stomach Feels Fine
in Five Minutes.

AS there is often some one in your
family who suffers an attack OF indi-
gestion or some form of stomach trou-
Bile, why don't you keep some Diapep-
sin in the house handy?
This harmless blessing will digest
anything you can eat without the
slightest discomfort, and overcome a
sour, gassy stomach five minutes af-
ter.
Tell your pharmacist to let you
read the formula, plainly printed on
these 50-cent cases of Pape's Diapep-
sin, then you will readily see why it
makes indigestion, sour stomach,
heartburn and other distress go in
five minutes, and relieves at once
such miseries as belching of gas,
quotations of sour, undigested food
nausea, headaches, dizziness constipa-
ton and other stomach disorders.
Some folks have tried SO long to
find relief from indigestion and dys-
pepsia or an out-of-order stomach
with the common, everyday cures adj
, vertised that they have about made
up their minds that they have some
thing else wrong, or believe theirs
is case of nervousness. gastritis, ca
! tarrh of the stomach or cancer.
This, no doubt, is serious mis-
take. Your real trouble is, what
you eat does not digest; instead. i
ferments and sours, turns to acid, gas
and stomach poison which putrefy in
the digestive tract and intestines
and, besides, poison the breath with
nauseous odors.
A hearty appetite, with thorough
digestion, and without the slightest
discomfort or misery OF the stomach
is waiting for you as soon as you de-
eide to try Pape's Diapepsin.

Big NEGRO COLLEGE
COULD COME HERE
Learned Leader of the Negro Race in
Pine Bluff To Speak in Interest
Of National Baptist TheOlO-
gical Seminary.

DIR. Sutton E. Griggs, D. D., field
secretary of the National Baptist
Educational Board and author of sew
eral books, is in the city in the inter-
est of the National Baptist Theologi-
cal Seminary.
One year ago the American Baptist
Association (white) offered to the ne-
gro Baptists of this United States
through the n. b. convention the
handsome sum of $4,000 to be ex-
pended for the establishment of a
theological school for the training of
negro ministers, provided that the
negro Baptists would raise $4,000
In accordance with this offer, the
National Baptist Educational Board ap-
pointed Dr. Griggs to canvass the
United States in an effort to raise
this $4,000 and he has proven HIM
self master of the situation, for IN
one year he has raised over $4,000
and stated yesterday, that when the
National Convention convenes in Sep
TENDER, 1911, at Pittsburg, Pa, he
hopes he will have collected the re-
naming $1,000 and in October, 1911
one of the greatest achievements OF
the negro Baptists would be launched
in the actual commencement of work
on the structure
The lberality of the Pine Bluff
people and the people of Arkansas
gererally will certainly not be want
ing in this noble cause, he says.
The accomplishment of this great
work should appeal quite strongly t.
the negroes of Arkansas not only

ATTACK LIKE TIGERS.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply so fast the little fighters are
overcome. Then see pimples, boils
eczema, salt rheum and sores multiply
and strength and appetite fail. This
condition demands Electric Bitters to
regulate stomach, liver and kidneys
and to expel poisons from the blood
