Women Voting Close
Doors of Over l 900
Saloons in Illinois

Chicago, April S.-Women voting
for the first time in Illinois township
elections demonstrated their power
yesterday by closing the doors of more
than thousand saloons outside Chi
cago, adding sixteen counties to the
thirty already dry and barring the
sale of intoXicants in approximately
200 of the 800 townships in which To-
cal option was an issue.
Their victory included eleven of the
larger cities of the State which until
the votes were counted were wet. They
were Bloomington, Galesburg, Elgin,
Decatur, Canton, Freeport, Belvidere,
Monmouth, kewanee, Lockport and
East Galena. Rockford, Mattoon and
Galva were kept in the dry column
by women's votes.
No city nor township which was
dry before the election was lost by the

Constipation in Summer time is more
dangerous than in the fall, winter or

taminated and is more likely to fer

the hot weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Collie, Fever, Ftomaine Fol

ON THE RIGHT TRACT

Mr.. C. M. earn of Reddick was a
Friday visitor and it was really en-
.husing to hear him talk. 1t was
largely through his efforts that
: cold storage establishment was
made possible at Reddick. He had
aith in its success from the start and
lis faith ut no time forscok him. He
says that its success has even ex-
ceeded his most sanguine eXpecta-
ions. He cured 100000 pounds
# meat fer the farmers in the vicin-
ity of Reddick and thirty thousand
pounds OF his own. The strips of
breakfast bacon and the nicely cure
hams cannot be eXcelled. The lard
is put up in splendid self sealing
buckets and is good as can be manu-
featured anywhere. The hogs from
which the bacon, ham and lard were
made were fattened ON Florida pea
nuts, the sweetest and oilest pea
us that are grown, and as a result
he meat and lard has a most sweet
delicious favor. Some of the bdcon,
I'M and lard are on sale at the earn
Nhomas grocery company and Mr..
earn invites an inspection of the pro-
ducts. 1t will, he thinks, do one
good to see them.
Mr.. earn now has another project
on foot which he says is as sure to
pay as the sun is to shine and that is
. establish tannery. We sell our
hides for few cents and when they
are returned to us in the form of
leather we pay many times the price.
Mr. earn wants to make that differ
ence. From the manufacture of hides
into leather the next step will be the
manufacture of the leather into shoes
and harness.
When we get more earns in the
country we will have a great state.
We believe that Mr. earn is on the
light track. We all should hold up
lis hands not by words only but in a
more practical and substantial man.
ner-that is, buying his products.
Mr.. earns example is an aspiration.

ESCAPED

Our fruit and vegetable growers
are all rejoicing that the cold weather
passed off without doing any dam
age.
The Savannah News and other
newspapers in adjoining states agree
n the statement that it was the cold
est weather experienced in their re-
1pective states for period of fifteen
years. The snow covered the ground
as mantle, but fortunately for us it
did not cross the Georgia boundry.
In this immediate neighborhood no
traces of the Frost Kings breath was
felt. The banana leaves, the guava
bushes nor the avocado pear trees
were not even nipped
We made a fortunate escape, and
bid fair to put vegetables into market
at an earlier date than usual, and a
larger acreage has been planted.

MARRIAGE LICENSES ISSUED

Up to the hour of noon Friday
County Judge W. E. Smith had issued
twenty-seven marriage licenses-one
for each day of the month of Febru-
airy. That's not bad-making two
hearts beat as one for every day in
the month, or seven hundred and thir-
ty for the year.
The last couple to whom a mar
riage license was issued were Mr.. r.
Earl Wilson and Miss Florida Lille
Meadows, both residents of Oak.
Cupid will play his tricks at all sea-
sons of the year, and among the aged
and middle-aged as well as the youth
full. If it were not for his activity
what slothful, unromantic, sedate,
prosaic old world we would have.
Really there ought to be a day set
apart as Dan Cupid's day, for the JOY
and bliss that he brings deserve to
be fittingly ocmmemorated.
