THE GRAND JURY REPORT.

The report of the Noxubec county grand jury,
which appeared in last weeks BEACON has attracted
a great deal of favorable comment. 1t was a fine and
true tribute to our county and the people of our
county, and gave pleasure to every MAJ who takes
pride in the honor and welfare of Noxubce.
Parts of the report dealing with the moral and
social condition of the county and with the office of
county attorney and tick eradication were published
in Sundays Commercial Appeal. BY the way the
same paper reproduced the BEAooN's interview with
Mr.. Joseph Il. Wing concerning our lands and illus.
trated it with a picture of haying on Binion \ Doug.

Some portions Of the grand jury report not printed
in the BEACON because of lack of space were as fol.
lows:
Because of lack of accommodations the two
races were more or less mingled at the poor
house. 1t was recommended that additional
buildings be erected for white people.
1t was recommended that electric lights be in.
stalled in the Jail, to be used only when neces.
sary. 1t was stated that communication was
too easy between inmates of the Jail and outSid,
ers, and it was recommended that the Jail yard
be walled in or fenced.
The road ~overseers were urged to 20 to work
Immediately and theoretically on the county
roads.
The grand jury reported that an examination
of the books of the clerk of the board of supervi.
sOrs showed that the county has spent on tick
eradication, since the work was started in the
= county, $40, 70S. 90. This sum is exclusive of
what was spent by the state and federal govern.
ments. Attention was called to the fact that
the law required all cattle to be dipped, and the
inspectors urged to enforce the law.

"EvII Eye" Based on Fact.

Most people have heard of the EVIL

power and activity from the other He
dssignates 1t the dominant eye," and
according to whether 1t is the left or

cruelty, and may entail lifelong mis-
cry, to force child to become am
bidextrous. Such a course may result
In wrecking the nervous system, and
can only be cured by a reversal OF the
process SO that the dominant eye"

HONEST ADVERTISING
WINS IN LONG RUN
BY VIM. c. FREEMAN.

Rev. DR.. Reisner of Grace Metho-
dist Episcopa. church, New York, re-
Gently sent letter to a number Of
business men asking them some ques-
t1ons. based on the alleged statement
OF Rev. r. ]. Campbell of London. that
a business man cannot be absolutely
honest and succeed.
great many honorable men, so
Dr.. Reisner says. claim that an abso-
lutely upright Standard of honesty IL
impossible for the man who is deter
mined to succeed In business
The following are the questions
that he asked Of the merchants:
l. Is 1t possible to succeed In bust
ness and be absolutely honest?
2. Why do dishonest men fail to
reach fullest success?
3. Why do SO many salesmen re-
sort to sharp practices to make sales
4. Is 1t ever excusable to misrep-
resent or exaggerate goods either in
quality or popularity of demand?
Here are four very good answers to
those questions sent to DR.. Reisner
by Mr.. Murphy. president of the Mark
Cross company:
1. Yes-and II done any other way
the man does not get the full measure
of success
2. Because the most dific thing
in the world is to lie dishonesty for
any length of time
3. Sharp practice is their tragedy
that is why there are so many bad
statesmen
4. There is no excuse for such a
blunder Retribution follows hard on
the heels Of Misrepresentation Ad.
vertising may be fraudulent or it may
be profitable, but it cannot be both.
There is no fool so great as the fool
who thinks he is fooling everybody
First he labors hard to gain dis
honest reputation, and afterward he
labors to undo it Like Frankenstein,
who released the genii from the bottle
only to find he could not control him.
Another paper was read at the Sum
day night service. December 3. which
made the point that the man who
practices dishonesty in his business
las to be a great deal smarter man
than the man who practices honesty
that he has greater difficulty IN at
tanning partial success than the man
who is inherently honest has in at
tanning a great success
Is it not true that the businesses
that prosper most In our communities
are those whose owners are men Of
character who stand for something in
the world?
There is no doubt that honesty in
business pays best in the long run,
and the honest adertiser has a better
chance to succeed than the dishonest
advertiser

The Russian department Of agricul.

with great success in the deserted

proved that the swamps of the Arch

by poverty and hunger in their native

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
scale. Then 1t would break out
again and 1t spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
1t kept spreading until 1t was on his
hands and arms. bought several
medicine. and had two doctors to treat
him. but he got worse all the time.
He had it about six months when =
friend told me about Cuticura. l sent
and got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent.
a cake of Cuticura Soap and box Of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles of Resolvent, two
boxes Of Ointment and three cakes Of
Soap he was sound and well, and never
had any breaking out Of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. 1 don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since
to use for cuts and sores and have
never known them to fail to cure what
