LITANY OF A SINNER.

Now my time has come to die,
Good my Masters hear,
This a sinners litany
Daring to your ear;
Life hath played for me to dance,
Up and down the line
(Eh, paid the fddlers, sirs,
But the dance was fineD
Love came swinging to my call
Black-eyed love and bold;
Gave me scarlet lips to kiss,
Both her hands to hold.
Fast and faster fell our feet,
To the music's beat
(Eh, l paid the fiddler's, sirs,
But the dance was sweet!)
l have danced it through the world
All, the merry tune!
Danced the red sun down the west,
Danced away the moon
Could I cavil at the price?
Out on souls so mean!
(Eh, l paid the fiddler's, sirs,
But the dance was keen!)
Beggared now, my masters all,
Cry your cold dispraise;
Raise your eyes and count your gold,
Trudge your weary ways;
], the pauper, richer far,
Envy not nor pine
(Eh, / paid the fiddler's, sirs,
But the dance-was mine!)

He is poor sort of a farmer, as
we have said before, who does not
aim to have something just little
better than any Of his neighbors
a horse, cow, a hog, a flock Of
chickens, an acre of corn, an apple
orchard, or what not. 1t does not
so much matter what the thing is.
The important thing is the striving
for the mastery. And having striv-
en-, you want to pit yourself against
your neighbOrs to make sure that
you really have excelled.

81 do not pretend to be a
prophet. But though not a
prophet, / see a very dark cloud
on our horizon. That dark
cloud is coming from Rome. 1t
is filled with tears and blood.
1t will rise and increase till
it's Hanks will be torn by fash
of lightning, followed by fear
full peal of thunder. Then a
cyclone, such as the WoSId has
never seen, will pass over the
country, spreading ruin and
desolation from North to South
After it is over there will be
long days Of peace and prospect
ty for popery, with it's Jesuits
and merciless inquisition will
have been forever swept away
from our country. Neither nor
you, but our children will see
these things. Lincoln.
DEARLY half century has
IM passed since grand old Lincoln
| u uttered the above prophecy.
Was Lincoln right? The
trend of the times say he was.
If Lincoln could see tears and blood
forty-eight years ago, what does a
lesser intellect see today? His
prophecy fulfilling as sure as death!
Do all the Guardians of Liberty
know the blood stained history of
Rome? She has destroyed every
\ h
ments. She has been driven from
nearly every other country-and now
smearing it's leprous trail across the
face of America, secretly dumping
her vandals upon American soil, for
no other purpose than Remaining
the United States. Their trail,
from soon after the ascension
of Christ, down to the pres
ent day, is spattered with human
gore. There is no depth of iniquity
to which the Romish machine will
not sink to pefpetuate it's damnable
career. With the martyrs blood of
the past, with hands dripping the
warm life's blood of it's victims, and
working under a religious rigging.
it outrages, degrades, tortures and
kills in the name of Almighty God.
Guardians of Liberty what are
you going to do about it? / did
not join the Guardians for the mere
name, nor the pleasure Of being en-
relied among the best citizenship of
our country, l did not join to make
believe, but did join for action and
a purpose. l joined for bloodless
battle, joined to help save our
country. l joined for the purpose
of carrying out its every principle,
and for one will never lay down till
it's mission is complete.
We have come to the parting of
the ways" 1t will seem hard for
some of US to leave our old afflia-
tions, but if there is any honesty of
purpose in nay makeup, and as a
Guardian, | cannot support Taft,
Roosevelt, Wilson, nor the prohibit

party wants my support it must take
it's orders from the American people
instead of Rome. If any party gets

Des Arc Items.

About one hundred people from
Des Arc and Annapolis and a few
from Sabula attended the Pied
mont fair. No. s stopped every
evening which was a great conve-
nience to our people. A large
crowd was in attendance. The
gate receipts for the four days
were more than $4,000, besides the
income from the stands of differ
ent kinds. There were several
lunch stands, besides a regular
dining room; prices,25 to 35 cents,
depending on how much you ate.
At the noon hour you would have
to wait a half hour for your meal,
so great were the crowds. The
stock show was good. Several
horses and colts took blue ribbons.
Joe Williams of Pennington was
one of the judges. There should
have been more COWS. Nc a sim

1t is calculated that many lives can
be saved, and also many persons
can be prevented from being MAIN
ed and disfgured for life. While
this car is in a city all the appli-
ances to be used in case of illness,
or injury, either to passenger or
employees of the railroad, are on
exhibition and the attendants ex-
plain for what purpose each is to
be used. The railroad employees
are solicited to visit the car and
view the outfits and demonstra-
tons and hear the instructions and
lectures given on how to take care
of the injured. In this way they
are able to help each other as we'll
as passengers in cases of injury or
illness. The men are requested
not only to help each other and
the passengers Of the road in case
of mishap, but to also give care and
attention to tresspassers, and even
tramps. The talks which are Civ
en- to the men by DR.. Shields are
short and illustrated by charts,
diagrams, X-ray plates of frac-
lures and by painting the location
of the principal blood vessels in
the different important parts aud
organs of the body of the human
subject with colored crayons. In
this way the men are taught some
thing of anatomy that is useful in
handling emergency cases. They
are instructed on how to tie up
blood vessels to stop bleeding until
physician can arrive, and how to
clean wounds and injuries so as to
prevent blood poisoning and other
complications from setting in, and
are also instructed on various
other things that are useful and
eficacious in cases of emergency.

Piedmont Tri- County Fair.


The Piedmont Tri- County Fair
consisting of Iron, Reynolds and
Wayne counties was the best ever
this year. They had a large ex-
hibit of horses, mules, cattle, hogs,
sheep, goats, chickens, fancy
work of all kinds, agricultural pro-
ducts of all kinds; and one of the
best, if not the best, was the school
exhibit of Wayne and Iron
counties.
The High Schools of Piedmont
and Ironton had an excellent dis
play consisting of work from all
the grades.
The Rural Schools exhibiting
work, were; Williamsville, Patter-
son, Daymon, and Brunot of
Wayne. Pilot Knob, Arcadia,
Dec Arc, Roberts and King of
Iron.
The Rural School exhibits were
well gotten up and much enjoyed
by all who are interested in edu-
cation. Premiums were awarded
as follows:
Approved High School: Pied
mont Gncluding all grades) First,
S24.00; Ironton Including all
grades) Second, $500.

maps consisting of one outline
map of the United States, one of
Missouri, and one of the county;

A number of other prizes were

The quilts displayed by the little
Misses Eugenia and Hazel Tual, of
Arcadia, quilted at the ages of six
and seven, attracted a great deal
of attention and we're given prize
of $500. All told Iron county
will get about $4,000 in premiums
on school exhibits
We hope that more of our
schools will represented next year.
Teachers and patrons can never
appreciate the work of their
schools until they see it compared
with other schools.
In addition to the above, Mr.. w.
E. Randall, the High School Princi-
pal of the Piedmont High School,
offered his agricultural class,a at the
close of school last year, $50, to be
awarded to the pupil exhibiting

fair this year.
