Written for the Enterprise
is IT A PROPHEO1

While reading, lately, an ora
work compiled by an ahohs ''o w.
writer. somewhere towards '"'
second century of our era, l nap
nonod to com, across the folio"
inc passage which str"c k me %
partaking both Of the nature u "
fermentation and of IA proPn''N
1t reads as follows:
CAS- stood at the 1oot OF -
,,,,or;nu mountain, Lo! | hearu
a noise, "A great NOISE, IKE 10 'i'
of the rushing waters OF a nun
dred mighty cataracts' 1t wa
fine rumbling Of the rlveE OF aSeH,
rushing down from the regions .,
eternal life, and as 1t r"sl rush
along. it swept every 1hlhS Una
"ame IN IFS wav. or which at
tempted TO impede its progress
I'm my fear, | felt my ne'n
cro.nino on my bones, and failing
prone on the ground, ! was aooo'
- o;,a M the ghost, when
voice, like to the clangor OF ,"o
hundred trumpetS OF brass 'i'''
were sounded once year III 'n'
temple of the great JehoEa"'
cried aloud:
".Fumigate your hearts, We men
of sin whose souls and baWdH
houses where all the vices ana
examinations of Baal, and when
lower man to the level OF tue
brute hold high carnival IN inc
ranulsiyeness of their deforml-
ties.
e'Fumigate your mouths, We
sinners, whose tongues, keeiiel
than the edge of the sword, ana
more venomous than the sting OF
the wasp kill the regulations OF
your neighboas, and with words OF
fire expose them to the opioq"H
and burning contempt OF their
frllowmen.
Fumigate yolNr purses, !e
soulless men, who fill them WIN
i'll Gotten gains; We hardened SIN
ners whose every shekel, IS wet
with the tear of the widow, ana
the tinkling of which, chimes IN
harmony with the groans OF the
unfortunates debtors that you
hold in Your clutches;
Fumigate your hands, We men
in power. who indulge in graft,
and as live on the fat of the land:
this is abomination in the eyes o.
the LORD;
Fumigate your feet, We SIN
ners. who flee from the DORD to
follow strange women to live IN
prurient dalliance, fOrgetful OF
the beauty of your souls; your
souls that are the temples of the
LORD, and who to him that de-
faces his temples, for the LORD,
he is terrible in his wrath.
"Fumigate your houses, We
wicked men, to cleanse them OF all
impurities. for there, turks and
lies concealed the beast, the SER
want Of the yellow monster; and
To-! and behold, he bites with
vengeance, and his bite pOisOns the
blood and gives death.
CLARK we! the yellow monster
is prowling at your gates, armed
with the scythe of destruction.
He is sent by the LORD, as OF
yore he sent down sulphur and
birthstone on Sodom an Gomorrha.
"Repent, We sinners, while we
can still do so, for mighty is the
LORD in his wrath, and terrible
is his vengeance.
1t is this last phrase, which, l
imagine, contains prophecy.
What is it that threatens the peo-
pie? Is it the yellow peril in the
Orient? Is it the yellow fever
eternally at our doors? Perhaps
YOU may be able to explain the
hidden meaning of this prophecy?

ALL WRONG.
The Mistake Is Made By Many
Newport Citizens.

Look for the cause Of backache.
To be cured you must know the
cause.
If it's weak kidneys
You must set the kidneys to
working right.
A resident Of tbs vicinityc
shows you how.
Mrs. Martha A. Harmon of
Batesville, Arkansas, says: "A
member of my family was taken
seriously Ill with pneumonia in
1908 and when recovered, he was
very weak. He complained of
constant, dull ache in the
small of his back and he also
had dizzy spells. He was unable
to work and knew that some
thing must be done to prevent
the trouble from becoming
chronic. Doan's Kidney Pills
had done so much for me that |
concluded to get a box. and their
use was begun in the case Of
which I am speaking. In a
short time they entirely re-
moved the backache and other
troubles. | also wish to say
few words regarding my ex-
perience. For fourteen years |
suffered terribly from pains in
my back and other symptoms of
kidney complaint. l was all run
down. Doan's Kidney Pills soon
put me on the road to good
health and disposed of my
complaint" (Statemene gives,
May 80, 1909
REIMBURSEMENT.
On April 5, 1911, Mrs. Har-
mon said: my opinion of Do
ans Kidney Pills has not chang
ed during the past three years.
The cures this remedy effected
in my family have been perma-
nent."

Everybody Likes Music.

From the birth Of Adam to
the present day, man has shown
a desire for music, even among
the uncivilized tribes Of the
Eastern Hemisphere, they make
weird sounds that seem to have
charms to soothe. We owe most
Of our musical education to the
Greeks, according to musical
history. With the advancement
of the world, our musical talents
have also advanced, until today,
small boys are found who can
read music as readily as grown
person of few years ago. Pc
ter Kramer from The House of
David, at Battle Creek, Michi-
gan. won the highest honors in
his class last year, which speaks
very complimentary OF his tai
ents. He is spending his sum-

'CHUCk" WAS

WITH THE PULL

Have you got the tooth-ache? Did
you ever have it7 Do you ever expect
to have it? If it has been your mis-
fortune to experience anything along
this line and should you desire any
sympathy, to sooth the memory of the
trial, just go to "Chuck" Everett, the
county treasurer, and he will meet
you more than half way.
The amiable "Chuck" woke up last
night with a pain in his jaw that
threatened to seriously impair his
characteristic good humor. He says
it felt as if all the disiples of Me-
phistopheles were on the job playing
tug of war with the main nerve Of

Mrs. Houghnlaster
Is Called By Death
Dies on Washington Ranch After
Suffering Practical Helplessness
for Months
DEATH CAUSED BY PARALYSIS
Widowed Two Years Ago; Survived
By Adopted Daughter. Miss
Irma

Mrs. George Houghmaster died at
her Washington home October accord
ing to letter received here late last
week. The particulars of her death
were not given, but it is supposed by
her friends here that death was caused
by paralysis.
Mrs. Houghmaster had been help
less for several months prior to her
death, having suffered two strokes
of paralysis. 1t is surmised that the
third stroke was the cause of her
death.
Until about six years ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Houghmaster were among the
well-known residents of Redwood,
having lived here for seventeen
years before going to their ranch in
Washington where they afterward
made their home.
Mr.. Houghmaster died four years
ago and Mrs. Houghmaster's sole sur
vivor is her adopted daughter, Miss
Irma Houghmaster, who has been with
her since babyhood, and whom she
regarded as her own daughter.
