TO SAVE EYES
s THE OBJECT OF THIS FREE PRE-.
SCRlPTiON-TRY 1T If YOUR
EYES GIVE YOU TROUBLE.

Thousands of people suffer from eye
troubles, because they do not know
what to do. They know some good
home remedy for every other minor all
ment, but none for their eye troubles.
They neglect their eyes because the
trouble is not sufficient to drive them to
an eye specialist, who would, any way
charge them heavy fee. AS last re-
sort they 60 to an optician or to the
FIVE and ten-cent store, and ofentimes
get glasses that they do not need, or
which, after being used two or three
months, do their eyes more injury than
good. Here is simple prescription
that every one should use:
grains Optona. Il Tablet
ounces water.
Use three or four times day to battle
the eyes. This prescription keeps the
eyes clean and quickly overcomes in
flammation and irritation. Weak, wa
terry, work-strained eyes, granular lids
and other similar troubles are greatly
benefited and oftentimes cured by its
use. Many who wear glasses have dis
carded them after using it for few
weeks. 1t is good for the eyes, and
will not injure the most sensitive eyes
of an infant or the aged. Any druggist
can fill this prescription promptly. Try
1t, and know for once what real eye
comfort Is.

derry HAVING
BOOSTED MEAT PRICES
LIVE STOCK RECEIPTS NEARING
FAMINE BASIS, DECLARES
HEAD OF BIG CONCERN.

Chicago, Aug. 13.-Vigorous denial
that packers have made the European
war an excuse to put up meat prices
was made today by ]. Ogden Armour,
president of Armour & Co. Armour
gave out a statement saying the rea-
son for the advances was that receipts
at the stockyards here for the last
two weeks have been approaching a
famine basis.
In that time, the statement ex.
planned, Armour & Co. have killed
fewer hogs than during any similar
period in the history of the concern.
"The nine Armour plants killed only
14,73S hogs last week. against 7O,33S
the week before the war;" the state
ment reads. They killed only 1852
cattle last week, against 21,S36 the
week before the war, and only 3O,334
sheep last week, against 1896 the
week before the war"
Circumstances of last week, utterly
beyond control Of anybody, directly
affected live stock and meat prices"
Armour said. THE financial situation
everywhere. fortunately now thing
of the past. made 1t impossible for
buyers and shippers to send stock to
the market.
Then Washington sent out, and
properly so, official advice to the farm
ers to hold their crops. These circum-
stances, added to the live stock short
age, caused fluctuations which nobody
could control. Conditions are fast be.
coming normal and prices soon will
be on more even basis.
During the last two weeks Armour
& Co. have killed fewer hogs than
during any similar period since we
have been in business. Only the other
day, we could fill but one-third of an
order from one of the nations at wal
because the raw material could moi
be obtained"

INFECTION AND INSECT BITES
DANGEROUS

Mosquitoes, flies and other insects,
which breed quickly in garbage pals,
ponds Of stagnant water, barns, musty
places, etc, are carriers of disease.
Every time they bite you, they inject
poison into your system from which
some dread disease may result. Get
a bottle of Sloan's Liniment. 1t is
antiseptic and a few drops will neu.
tralize the infection caused by insect
bites or rusty nails. Sloan's Liniment

FORUM OF THE PEOPLE.
HATTIESBURG AS CATTLE
CENTER.


Editor News:
In your paper of yesterday you car
ried a Meridian item referring to a
meeting of several hundred cattle
raisers from the territory adjoining
Meridian.
All that was contained in that item
is true, but you failed to state that
this meeting is held under the aus
pices Of the Aberdeen-Angus Associa-
ton and that they hold this meeting
once or twice year for the purpose
Of helping cattle raisers to dispose of
Aberdeen-Angus stock.
The writer hopes in the near future
that the cattle raisers in and around
Hattiesburg will be able to get to-
gether in an association with head
quarters here at Hattiesburg.
Hattiesburg would be the natural
market and shipping point for consid-
cradle cattle. 1t is conveniently
reached by the people from the imme-
diately adjoining counties, and in as
much as 1t is to the advantage of both
buyer and seller to have large men,
bership as we'll as large attendance
at these sales, the writer believes that
it would be very much to the interest
Of growers in the adjoining counties,
for the first few years at least, to join
in an association with headquarters
here at Hattiesburg.
The writer will be glad to have an
expression from any and all raisers
and prospective raisers and will fur
nish any information at his disposal
and will take pleasure in answering
communications on this subject.
Yours very truly,
]. S. Harrison.

You'll buy an extra gallon this year.
There's S. or Sc for paint and labor.

1t is always SO; the longer you wait,

SUMNER CONSTIPATION
DANGEROUS

Constipation in summertime is more
dangerous than in the fall, winter or
spring. The food you eat is often con-
taminated and is more likely to fer
ment in your stomach. Then you are
apt to drink much cold water during
the hote weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Collie, Fever, Ptomaine Pois-
oning and other ills are natural re-
suits. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well,
as it increases the Bile, the natural
laxative, which rids the bowels Of the
congested poisonous waste. Po-Do-
