SANTUC

Rev. d. c. Wylie preached for the
congregation of the Baptist church
here Sunday-a fairly good congre-
cation for bad day, and the sermon
was a good one. The pastor, Rev.
A. McA. Pittman, had gone over to
preach at Padgetts Creek, and learn
that he has accepted call to preach
there this year.
Mr.. Parham Jeter, who has been
assayist in copper mine in Eastern
Tennessee for several years, is home
for awhile now. He will be here for
a week or two.
Mr.. and Mrs. C.. D. Moss and chill
dren, of Irwin, Tenn, are visiting Mr..
and Mrs. r. E. Moss. Mr.. Moss is
chief dispatcher in Irwin.
Messrs. Paul and S. M. Gilmore,
two young brothers, bought a grist
mill and are turning corn into meal
right at your door. The people are
wishing them success.
Mr.. Norman Gregory, young son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. D. ]. Gregory, met with
an accident last Saturday while run
ming a buzz saw, saving wood and
had his right index finger so badly cut
that it had to be cut off at the hand
joint.
We are just having our worst
weather of the winter. February is
holding it's own average, the rough
est month of the year. Rain, hail,
sleet and snow, Friday 13 inches with
the index in the government minimum
thermometer, going back all day (but
a strange thing, it rose during the
night and regained all it lost through
the day, 21 degrees was the lowest,
and this was the reading of the in
strument on several mornings. But
it must have been colder on the creeks
than on this ridge, for steam boiler
we had there with water in it had
several valves burst from freezing;
despite the fact that it was fired up
one night as preventative.

JONESVILLE

Jonesville, Feb. 1.-THE snow of
the 18th was about two inches and
there is much of it on the ground yet.
On the 18th and 18th of February,
1858, there was the heaviest sleet in
this country that was ever known up
to that date or since. Fruit trees
and the forest of the woods were lit
eraly stripped of their branches
and it looked as though the woods
were ruined and the farmers thought
there would be no acorns the next
year for their hogs; acorns in those
days were the hogs delight but the
next spring the trees sprouted out
and the young sprouts bore an
abundant crop of acorns and the hogs
fattened upon them and the wild pig
cons came in great numbers after
the acorns. The pigeons would some
tines breaks down tender branches
of the trees upon which they would
perch for the night. The people
killed many of them but they are a
tough bird for meat.
Another old event I will mention 4:
On the 18th of April, 1849, there
was snow of about two inches and
hard freeze that night; the peaches
were about as large as chinquapins; /;
the wheat was in the boot and vere-
tation was far advanced. 1t was
killed; the wheat fell down and
rotted and it created a stencil all
over the country. Early in 1850 there
was a snow 18 inches on level that

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.

Recently two boys were rambling
through some woods near Union and
found dog tied to a stump. The dog
had died of starvation, having been
tied there and left. Any man mean
enough to be guilty of an act like
this would, if opportunity came, stop
at no crime. There is law against
cruelty to animals, and it is a great
pity the perpetrators of this act of
cruelty cannot be caught and severely
punished.

The dispensary sales here for the
year aggregate $155,OOO--a sum suf-
ficient to buy 7750 acres Of land in
this county at $40 per acre. The
difference is that if 100 men should
each purchase farm in Union coun-
ty containing II 1-2 acres, paying
$50 an acre we would feel the bene-
fetal results in every line OF activity,
and for all the years to come. In the
case of the money paid for liquor it
is wiped out as an asset. 1t has
gone down the "red lane", and has
left no real value. The two pictures
present vastly different results.

Quit Plasters, Salves and What-nOts

If you have tried other things by the
score and will now try "GETS-IT"
you will realize this glorious fact.
You probably are tired stickin~ on
tape that won't stay stuck, plasters
that shift themselves right onto your
corn, contraptions that make bun
die of your toe and press right down
on the corn. Put two drops OF
"GETS-IT" on that corn in two sec
onds. The corn is then doomed as
sure as night follows day. The corn
shrivels. There's no pain, no fuss.
If you think this sounds too good to
be true try it tonight on any corn,
callus, wart or bunion.
"GETS-IT" is sold by druggists
everywhere, 25c a bottle, or snt di-
rect by E. Lawrence & Co., Chicago.
Sold by Greenlund Drug Store.

Washington, Dec. 9.-The reduction from $35, 100000, to $20,0OO,0OO of the rivers and harbors appropriation by last summers session of congress was vital topic of interest when dele gates from every state in the Union gathered here today to attend the eleventh annual convention of the National Rivers and Harbors congress
 While many people upbraid the rivers and harbers appropriation bill as port barrel measure, the members of the Rivers and Harbors congress look upon that measure as about the most important one on which congress is called to act.
 Attacks on congress for cutting the appropriation wtre made by Senator Ransdell of Louisiana, leader of the waterways movement and one of the principal organizers of the Rivers and Harbors congress.
 The convention is to continue to. day and tomorrow. The more notable

 Last year the proceeds from the sales Of the seals amounted to $45O,- coo and it is said that this year d million is needed. The fight against tuberculosis has grown wider and costlier and the necessities of the victims of the plague have not de- creased.

HELPING THE BELGrANs.

One 0. the best ways to help the Belgian refugees is to assist them ill making homes in Arkansas-Jef- fcrson county, Arkansas--where the terror of war will no longer disturb them. Sending food to Belgians is a laudable, a great undertaking, but this only temporarily relieves their condition. Wouldn't it be better to charter half g dozen steamers, bring the Belgians ;.- 1he United Stases, give them a little financial assistance in locating on farms, and say: Here s a country where you'll not be dis turbed by war; where you have every opportunity to make of yourself what you hill; there's health and wealth before you. Go to it.
