SPEAKING OF SLOGANS.

Life is short, life is sweet, and it's mo-
ments are dear
When our feet on the stage are be-
ginning to lag,
But we start and we wake when the
slogan we hear,
ITO hell with the man who insulted
the flag!."
Guerilla or potentate, all his wild wild
From the darkest of swalnps to the
sky-kissing crag,
Will tremble and shrink at the ugly
refrain,
"To hell with the man who insulted
the flag"
1t comes from the heart, tho the
words are profane,
And it voices no bluster or tremulous
brag.
It's the cry of our souls, that ugly
We say. it, and think it, and cry il
again
To our bluejackets down on the ole
Spanish Main
ITO hell with the man who insulted
the fag!"

CONSTIPATION RELIEVED
ENTIRELY AT OUR RISK.

Unless Rexall Orderlies relieve
your bowel troubles and make you
fell like coming back to thank us for
telling you about them, then come
back anyway, and ask us to give you
back your money. This is just as
strong as we can make this guaran-
tee, and we want to make it strong,
because we believe that Rexall Or
derlies are the best bowel remedy
made
Soothing and easy in action, they
cleanse the bowels, thoroughly toning
and strengthening them, and make
you feel great. They promote easy
and regular bowel action, help to
promptly relieve constipation and
overcome its cause. In these things
they differ from old-fashioned, harsh,
disagreeable salts and other physics
which usually give only temporary
relief and often leave the bowels in
worse condition than ever. They
taste like candy and seven children
like them. They are particularly
good for children and for delicate and
aged people. In vest pocket tin
boxes; 10c, 25c, SOC.
You can buy Rexall Orderlies only
at The Rexall Stores, and in this town
only of us. The Rice Drug Co., I'm

CHESTER BOY WRITES
OF TAMPICO SCENES.
Marion Cox is Now at Vera Cruz as
Bluejacket on the Utah.

Chester. April 27.-A Chester boy,
Marion Cox, the son of DR.. w. b..
Cox of this city, is one of the blue
jackets of the United States battle
ship Utah now stationed at Vera
Cruz. He took an active part in the
fighting last week at Vera Cruz. He
wrote letter home from Tampico,
where he was in port several days, to
his brother here, w. B. Cox, and it is
of much interest. He wrote in part |:
81 am in Tampico, and it is GER
tainly hell here. We have about 400
refugees on board and there is no
room to turn around. The rebels and
federals are fighting like madmen.
You can hear the booming of artil-
lery all day and night. When we first
came in the Mexicans did not recog-
nize our salute. The admiral sent
them notice to salute before sunrise
or there would be hell to pay. The
scout cruiser and Dolphin went in
close and turned broadside across the
river. Then both cleared for action.
We packed our knapsacks, got rations
and ammunition and stood by to land
at moments notice. We had every
one of our five-inch batteries loaded
and the 12-inch crew slept on their
stations. That night the Mexicans
apologized. The rebels were REIN
forced last night. 1 can go, on deck
and see the oil wells burning any
time. The city of Tampico is a per-
feet cemetery or rather a bone yard.
Horses and men are lying around
dead, and some of them have been
dead for week. In all probability
we will land before another month
ttn1Aea In -.
have a battle they pile the dead in
one big pile, pour oil on them and
burn them. They have no commits
sary in the Mexican army. so the wo-
men and children go with the army
and cook for them. If we land, I
think we will go straight to Mexico
City, which is about 200 miles from
here. The battle of Torreon which
is not far from here was one of the
most bloody ones during the revolu-
tion. About 5000 were killed."

YOUR MONEY BACK
IF YOU WANT IT..
Leading Druggists Will Refund Pur-
chase Price of Dodson's Liver
Tone if You're Dissatisfied.

The Rice Drug Co. may not be will
ing to guarantee the safety and re-
liability of calomel for constipation
and sluggist liver, but these stores
Will and do stand back of Dodson's
Liver Tone with an unconditional
guarantee to refund the full purchase
price (50c) instantly without ques-
tion if you are not satisfied in every
way with Liver Tone and it's results.
II you take calomel, perhaps you
~ seem to get temporary relief, but
* often happens that the after-effects
are at least unpleasant and some
times dangerous. Calomel in large
doses is poison and actually deadly
to some-perhaps to you-and hence
Its use means taking chances.
With Dodson's Liver Tone you are
always safe. Its reliability is so GER
tain that it can be sold with the
money-back guarantee. 1t is a vege-
table liquid, pleasant to take, and it
cannot harm. 1t clears up the dulled
and aching head and cleans out the
!clogged system in what many have
found to be wonderful way. Dod-
sons Liver Tone will do for you what
it has done for thousands-and YOU
run no risk in trying it. Ask The
Rice Drug Co. about Dodsons and the
guarantee.

TAKE TIME.

Oh, ye men of Union
Take time to think of God,
Lest the finger of death should toucl
you
And land you beneath the sod.
Take time to think of Jesus,
To take Him as your Lord.
Jesus is the Bread of Life
And he will be life's joys.
49,
Take time to think of Jesus
When at your work each day.
Remember Jesus sees you
And don't forget to pray.
Take time to work for Jesus
Each day. God lets you live.
Remember He has blest you
So don't forget to give.
Take time to give God service
And Never! Never! whine,
And say, "I can't be a Christian,
Because l haven't time"

CROSS KEYS

Cross Keys, April 27.-The Cross
Keys Democratic Club met last Sat-
urday at o'clock. President B. G..
Wilburn called the meeting to order
and it was opened with prayer led by
H. B. Murphy. Mr.. L. G.. Browning
was called on for speech and with
the permission of the chairman he
responded in very brief manner,
outlining some of his plans for financ-
ing the State government, which he
advocated while chairman of the
Ways and Means committee; he said
"a were trifiing with little things
and allowing the weightier matters
to pass by unnoticed in our present
plan of taxation. He thinks we are
at least fifty years behind the times
in this State along this line. Mr..
Browning is strong advocate of ev-
cry white man being allowed to cast
his ballot in the primary elections.
He has always been very decided in
this matter. His speech was we'll re-
ceived, creating a profound impress
sion.
Mr.. B. G. Wilburn made a short
talk, thanking the people of Cross
Keys for their expression of conf
dence in him; said they had given
him everything he had asked for.
He said he had one more favor to ask
and that was that every one lay down
all party prejudice and come togeth-
er and elect the best men to repre-
sent us in the county convention. He
then asked to be excused from serv-
ing as chairman. A motion was made
to unanimously elect Mr.. Browning
chairman. Mr.. Browning thanked
the people for this expression of con-
fidence but said he would not serve
us as he would be away practically
all the summer. H. B. Murphy was
then elected chairman, unanimously.
he took charge of the meeting and
the following officers and delegates
We're all elected unanimously. w. T.
Betsill, vice presirent; w. H. Will
burn, secretary and treasurer: ]. R.
Whltmire, executive committeeman:
Hon. l.. G. Browning, chairman; j..
M. Bennett, J. w. Humphries, J. w.
Sanders. j. E. Minter, B. G.. Wilburn.
A. j. Hill delegates.
On motion the chairman and sec
retary were made the committee on
registration and instructed to enroll
every white man in Cross Keys town
ship.
Mr.. D. C. Bishop, who has been
hvlng with his uncle, Mr.. B. c.. Will
burn, has moved to his sisters, Mrs.
Lula Bobo. He is in very bad state
of health.
Mr.. Leroy S. Townsend has bought
the stock of goods of the Cross KEYS
Mercantile company and has opened
up business there with Mr.. T.. Arthur
Bailey as salesman.
In referring to Mr.. Browning's
speech, there was one suggestion of
his that should be mentioned and
that was that very simple way to
correct irregularities in our pri-
snaries, was for each man to be re-
quired to produce his last years tax
receipt and when he votes let the
managers of election date it, this will
stop this twice voting and make it an
offense punishable by law to vote
dead man.

blossoms are dead. I think the last
