nation of his errand, passed a law
imposing an additional tax of five
cents per 500 for road purposes. This

interested in spending this money to
the best possible advantage. Under
our state law the counties and local
divisions must put up half and the
state furnishes the other half. The
enthusiasm which pervades the state

fact that of the 120 counties in the

SHAMROcKS

You buy pot o shamrocks- like them
for their green
Al, for their pleasant fnendllness--bu but
know not what they meant
What can you know of shamrocks. you
who feel not the thrill
They bring of Shannons murmurs past
Powered field and hill?
You buy a pot of shamrocks. and back at
them you smile
All. could you know and feel that they are
part of Erin's isleI
You hav, not eyes that see things, OF you
would see the mist
That runs across Killarney when morn
ing's brow is kissed;
You have not ears that hear things. or you
would hear the song
Made of a thousand memories forever
sweet an strong
thing you buy,
An not bit of Irish sod or breadth of
Irish sky!
The CLINT of Irish sunshine makes all that
lvin' green,
An Irish rains kept off the STAINS an gave
that jewel-sheen;
Would that you understood it. For could
you understand,
There'd be bit of tremblin' each time
they touched your handl
Your fingers would be tremblin'. your eyes
be dewy-wet,
Your heart would beat a measure you
never could forget
You buy pot O. shamrocks, an know not
what they meanl
You set them on the table to see their
cheerin' green
But should you trample on them they d
rise in grace again,
Just as the hopes rise in the hearts OF
women and of men.
Smile friendly at your shamrocks an
back at you they smile
All, could you know an feel that they are
part of Erin's islel

The Sunday School Contest.

The contest between the Baptist and
Christian Sunday schools on Sunday last
was really great event. The attend
ance in the latter school was 670, and
the Offering $27.65. while the Baptist
had 625 present and an offering of S43 21.
We must congratulate the Baptist school
on the fine showing it made; but they
worked for all they got and deserve all
the honors to which the contest entities
them. 1t was record breaking event
in Sunday school circles, and seems
hardly credible when we recall the fee
BILE efforts which Sunday schools made
few years ago.

CURE STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable

in the treatment of stomach, liver and
intestinal troubles, has been introduced
in this country by George H. Mayr, who

leading down-town druggists of Chi
cago and who himself was cured by its
use. So quick and effective is its action
that a single dose is usually enough to
bring pronounced relief in the most
stubborn cases, and manv people who
have tried it declare they never heard
OF anything to produce such remarkable
results in so short time. 1t IS known

now be had at all leading drug stores.
It IS sold with the positive understand
ing that your money will be refunded
without question or quibble If ONE

His Religious Beliefs South
America in Accord.

Washington, Oct. 11.-Official adj
vices have been received here that
Argentina, Brazil and Chile are in
accord with the decision of the
United States to grant recognition
to the party led by General Carran-
"a as the de facto government in
Mexico.
The form in which recognition is
to be accorded has not been decided,
but it may be done by formal noti-
fication to Eliseo Arredondo. author
lied representative here of the Car
rama government. Extension of
recognition is expectei within a
week. This will result in the immed-
late order of embargo on arms
against factions opposed to the Car
rama government, step which will
weaken materially the resources of
the Villa element. Miguel Diaz
LomDardo gave out the statement
in behalf of the Villa faction declar-
ing that while it was a source of
satisfaction that the United States
had shown its sympathy with the
Mexican constitu ionalist revolution
against Huerta by recognizing a
revolutionary faction, nevertheless
it was intended to demonstrate by
further military operations that the
Carranza party's supremacy was
temporary.
1t has BECOME known that the first
chief had given explicit assurances
with with reference to the pro-
lection of foreigners claims, amnesty
for political offenses and the treat
inent of he clergy.

licemen, the procession started from
Virginia park and moved west on
Ninth to Liberty. At the church
the procession moved north past, Ho-
tel Latham to Sixth, then west to
Main, nth to Ninth, and east to
the church. When the rear reached
the court house, the front ranks
were entering the church, making a
line of parade about five blocks long.

lively estimated at six hundred and
fifty assembled. where an unusually
interesting program was carried out.
The Cradle Roll exhibit was beauti-
full and touching. The exercises BY
the little tots were more than up to
standard. Each class appeared on
the platform and had part in the
program. Mention cannot be made
of all. There were lis 10 Mrs.
T. p. Cooks women class and las in
the mems class taught by Judge C.
II. Bush. A demonstration that
could not be suppressed followed the
march of the men around the church
auditorium. led by Judge Bush.

completely filled the great auditor
ium, and overfowed into the isles
where chairs were placed, gathered
for the initial service of the revival.
Mr.. Harding with the great choir

Harding is winning many golden
opinions for his solo and choir work.
He and Mrs. Harding sang a duet
that was very pleasing and impress
sive. Mrs. Harding gave choir.talks
to the junior choir. which met yes
