Corn Club BOy..A Live Member.
From Florence. Ala, Herald.)


The Southern Railway company's
instruction car, which was in Florence
Feb. 18th, was thronged with visitors.
The valuable information given by the
representatives of the Southern rail-
way, the State and Federal department
of agriculture, wss boon to those in
terested in the feed and proper care of
their livestock.
Capt. Cobb, who is at the head of the
State department of agriculture. gave
some interesting facts about the pro-
ductiveness of Alabama soil. Among
other things, he told of an Alabama
boy, II years of age, who grew PIT l-2
bushels of corn on one acre os ground
last year; which netted him III clean
cash 81, 125, to say nothing of what he
saw, learned and the corn he kept in
his own barn. The different items that
make up the 81, 125 are as follows:
State premium $3.50, county premium
$25, a mule from the Central of Geor-
gia Railway, for which he received S35C
in cash; he sold 200 bushels of his corr
at 81 a bushel-$400, and the good peo-
pie of his home town made up 500 ir

Separation.

She loosed her clasp of my trembling
hand
And glided swift to the Unknown Land !:
That land unseen in garden fair,
And. by and by. shall meet her there
Shall cali her back where the winds
blow chill,
She, who may gather its sweets at will?
Nay-I will wait for her whisper low,
And when she beckons mel will go.
She loosed her clasp of my trembling
hand
The better may love to understand;
No mysteries dwell in that far-off
sphere
Where light celestial is ever clear.
From land unseen by the crystal sea,
There earthward floats sweet melody.
She tastes the joys that long to know
And-when she beckons mel will go.
She loosed her clasp of the trembling
That may know her touch in Prom
ised Land;
The father who chastens hears my
prayer.
He has US both in His tender care;
He gives me faith for vision clear,
A glimpse of His heaven even here,
I'll work and wait till He whispers low
Whenever He calls me, will go.

tian Intelligencer.

Sells Much Flour.

A. T. McElwrath of this city sold
twenty-four thousand four hundred and
eighty-two barrels of -four last year.
This is a record rarely equaled and
shows that the commercial world not
only has great confidence in Mr.. McEl-
wrath, but that Dainty Flour" is a
flour that stays with the trade and that
those who once begin to use it are rare
ly satisfied with anything else. The
manufacturers of this -four, the Waller
& Spies Milling Co. of St. Louis, men
who not only have an ambition to sue
ceed, but are men whose aim is to give
the public the very highest and the
very best flour output. Dainty Flour"
sales increased in 1912 all over the
country and the very best merchants in
the land are handling it; so the Sentinel
feels no hesitancy in saying to its read
ers that when they buy barrel of
Dainty Flour" they will never have
cause to complain about the biscuits OF
anything else from the culinary de-
partment into which -four goes. Write
to Mr.. McElwrath or to the Waller &
Spies Milling Company for further par
ticulars.

Dies After Lingering Illness.

Mrs. W.S. Platt, the wife of W. S.
Platt; an attache of the Sentinel office,
died Wednesday afternoon at the resi-
dence of j. w. Vance after a struggle
of two years with that dreaded disease,
consumption. Through all the days and
months, she bore up patiently and al
ways displayed that fortitude and res
ignation characteristic of the Christian.
Her husband was faithful, attentive and
kind and did all he could to combat her
malady. She received every possible
care and attention from kind and loving
hands and met the end as one falling on
sleep. Mrs. Platt was native of Ala
bama. She and her good husband came
to Grenada little over two years ago
but unfortunately she was taken i'll
soon after her arrival here and has been
practically an invalid ever since.
The funeral services were conducted
from Mr.. Vance's residence Thursday
afternoon by Rev. ]. A. Hall after
which interment was had in Odd Eel
lows Cemetery. The aged and faith
full husband has the sincere sympathy
of the community.

SUGGESTIONS FROM
HEALTH OFFICERS
People Enjoined to Cooper
ate in HookWorm Treat
ment.

To the people of Grenaca county:
DIR. H. H. Howard and a competent
microscopic have been sent to our
county by the state board of health to
take up the work of eradication of the
hookworm disease. These men are ex-
perts and their services and the treat
menr for this disease will be given to
people without charge. DR.. Howard
will visit every school and community
in the county, giving illustrated lee
lures on Hook Worm Disease, and va
rious other health problems.
The amount of benefit derived from
this work by the people of Grenada
county will depend entirely upon the
response of the people, and we desire
to express not only our approval of this
campaign, but to insist that the people
take advantage of this opportunity.
While this disease is not so common in
this section as in the southern portions
of the state, yet it is more common
than is generally understood, and no
one can be absolutely sure of being
free from the infection except by being
examined. "a, 900 people were treated
in Mississippi alone last year, and this
work is of inestimable benefit to the
people of this and other Southern
states. (Signed)
J. Sydney Sharp.
State Health Officer.

bly two months in the county. Every

Howard, microscopist, will remain all
the time, and who will be pleased to
confer with anyone at any time.
Besides discussing hookworm, DR.,
Howard will discuss hygiene and sani-
tation and distribute some very inter-
esting literature. 1t is the duty of the
people and all the physicians of the
county to lend every aid and all possi-
Bile encouragement to DR.. Howard. The
fathers and the mothers Of the differ
ent neighborhoods should be present at
the schools to hear what the Doctor has
to say.
DR.. J. s. Sharp, member of the state
board of health, and DR.. J. w. Young
county health officer, or indeed any
other doctor in Grenada, will gladly
render their friends any aid or advice

Says The LOCkett Lumber Go.

The Lockett Lumber Co. of this city
says they can furnish any and all kinds
of lumber or other building material at
the lowest possible prices and that they
have a large and rapidly growing busi-
ness. The Sentinel can vouch for the
fact that they have one of the largest
lumber yards in this part of the state,
and that Mr.. c. E. Lockett is a large
contractor, and that he erects many
buildings in other places. just now he
is completing court house for Yalo-
busha county at Water Valley. The
Lockett Lumber Co. is thoroly reliable
and the Sentinel feels no hesitancy in
commencing them to the public.

A Little Sound Advice Will Help Many
Sufferer in Grenada.
No woman should consider herself
healthy and we'll if the kidneys are
weak Poisons that pass off in the
urine when the kidneys are well are re-
tanned in the body when the kidneys are
disordered. This is the true cauee of
many bearing-down pains, lameness.
back ache, etc. Uric poisoning also
causes headache. dizzy spells, languor.
nervousness and rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney
Pills. You will get better as the kid
neys get better, and health will return
when the kidneys are well. Let fel-
low sufferer tell you about Doan's Kid
ney Pills.
Mrs. A. M. Holmes, Union-st.. Wi
