R0bertsOn.SnOwden.

On Sunday afternoon at t2:l5 o'clock, at the residence of the bride in the Russell addition, Rev. ]. R. Nelson, of the Methodist church, pronounced the few solemn words of the marriage ritual of his church that made Mir. C. w. Robertson and Mrs. Ida Lee Snowden man and wife for better or worse, for veal or woe, until death do then part. The marriage, while not unlocked for by the intimate friends of the contracting parties, had not been announced, and came somewhat in the nature of a surprise. There were no attendants, and only few near relatives and close friends of the couple were present to witness the ceremony, which eliminated short but happy courtship.
 MT. Robertson is construction fore man for the Southwestern Telegraph x Telephone Company, and is a resident of Little Rock. He first met the lady who is now his bride when he came here shortly after New Year to take charge of the reconstruction work of the local telephone plant. He is a clever, hard working gentleman, who has the esteem and respect of ali who know him, and stands high with his employers.
 Mrs. Robertson is a native of this county, having lived here the greater portion of her life. She is charming and viyaclous, possessing in marked degree many womanly virtues and attributes that endear her sex to the balance of humankind, and numbers as her friend every one who has tine pleasure of her near acauaiDtancp She is emlnently fitted to adorn the home and bless the heart of the lucky man who has succeeded in winning her for his own and he is to be warmly congratulated.
 MT. and Mrs. Robertson left Monday at noon for Marianna, where MT. Rob, ertson is at presant at work, rebuild ing the telephone system of that city.
 The Times joines their many other friends in extending all the usual sincere and heartfelt congratulations and hopes that their welded life may be long, happy and prosperous one

 MT. Owen Pittman is helping to manage the plantation this year, and has made quite lot of Improvements. Mir. J. M. Cranor visits here quite often, and he's always a pleasant visitor.

Do Ghosts Haunt Swamps,

No, Never, It's foolish to fear fanci- ed evil. when there are real and dead ly perils to guard against in swamps and marshes, bayous and lowlands These are the marlaria germs that cause ague, chills and fever, weakness, aches in the bones and muscles and may induce deadly typhoid. But Electric Bitters destroy and casts out these vicious germs from the blood.

Cleaners Vote Thanks to Mrs. Manning

Tuesday, April D was q happy day for the Cleaners of the Baptist church. on that day the society met in the Sunday school room and as the mem- bers entered their bright and hippy faces testified that something un- usually good was about to happen Alter the meeting was opened the president suggested that a rising vote Of thanks be rendered Mrs Manning who worked so faithfully on the operetta, Princess Chrysanthemum," the proceeds of which went to pay the debt on our parsonage. Not satiS- lied with this conventional way of ex- pressing our appreciation we greeted her with this yell:
 Manning! That's the way to
 spell il.
 That's the way to yell it: who but you.
 Manning
 The Cleaners feel grateful to every one who took part in the opetetta and helped to make it such success. While the meeting was in session MT. Monroe came in bringing the papers and we loyfully paid every cent due him. We thank him for his kindness and patience. After the money was paid to MT. Monroe he generously re- turned B Of the amount. Too much cannot be said of the faithful earnest members of the Cleaners who have labored so steadily and diligently to pay this debt. Not only did they work, but paid something every month. We feel that great load has been lifted from us and want the world to know that we are out of debt. Our next work is to furnish the Sunday school room, but we have determined never, no never, to go in debt again.

ONE WAY OF SAVING
 A bAbY-FREE TO TRY

The mother does not live who would not do all in her power to keep her child healthy, but often she does not know how. So when a doctor of standing points the way all can afford to listen.
 It is an accepted fact that nine out of ten of the troubles of infants and children is intestinal. You notice it by the fact that the child is consti- pated. it belches, is peevish and cries. Don't give a remedy that contains an opiate. because the child will get in the habit of needing it, and don't be- come alarmed and run at once for a doctor.
 Try scientific laxative first. Give a small dose of Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, the remedy that is intended
The Forrest City times., 1911-05-12

for the use of children. It is mild, gentle and non-griping. The remedy IS absolutely pure and is guaranteed in every particular. Mrs. Toomey of Emingsville, Pa, and Mrs. Fred Croms of Alanson, Mich, never give their children anything else These are only few among thousands of women.
 You can buy a fifty cent or one dollar bottle of any nearby druggist. for they have all sold 1t for a genera tion. but if you want to test it on your child first send your address to Dr. Caldwell and he will cheerfully send you free sample bottle.
