painful of stomach troubles. He
could not eat--and If he did his irri-
tated stomach would not let him
sleep.
He tried Just one dose of Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy.
That one dose did wonders. Read
what Mr.. Glover has written of his
experiences:
II had been suffering for a long
while and tried all kinds of medicine,
with only temporary relief. A friend
advised me to try your wonderful
stomach remedy. Before you sent
me the medicine could not sleep
and was afraid to eat. When ate
would have heaviness in my chest,
and my stomach would swell and !
would, have a smothering feeling, a
headache and pains In my back. But
since taking one dose of your
remedy / can eat anything want, and
sleep good. feel that will not need
any more Of your treatment, as the
one bottle worked wonderful results"
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach. liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like No more distress
after eating, pressure Of gas In the
stomach and around the heart. Get one
bottle OF your druggist now and try it
on an absolute guarantee IF not satiss

We have been considered a
country Of unlimited resources
but we have arrived at q point
where the exhaustion Of some of
these important national resour-
ces is approaching. Andrew
Carnegie estimated that the
known supply of iron will be
ABSOLUTELY exhausted before 1910.
Our coal supply is limited and
our soil is declining in fertility
not only as result Of methods
of tilling, but by the sweeping
away of fertile surface by tor
rental rains. The conservat tion
of our forest will help to regulate
the flow of waste and will be
means of stopping this wastage.
Any one " no has reached the
age of 75 years has noticed the
disappearance of the small
brooks where he played in his
district school days, larger
ones have shrunk to summer
threads, and threads, and rivers
that filled their banks all year
are hardly more than rivulets in
summer. This is due to the de.
nudation' of our hills aud valleys
of the water holding trees.
Water falling on the land is dis
posed of in three ways; evapora-
ton, running off in streams, and
percolating the earth. Then a
serious result is the water supply
and the effect on the soil.

Time To Call Halt.

The farmers 'of Mississippi
have made such splendid pro-
gress during the past few years
in handling their diversified
crops. that another campaign
is suggested and one that should
be fought to a successful termin-
alton. That Isl; we must feed
our cotton seed meal market
it through good dairy or beef
animal and return its fertilizing
value to our tired and depleted
soils.
When ton of cotton seed
meal is allowed to leave the
state, we have robbed the soil OF
fertilizing valu e ranging from
S14.00 to $4,000. Our lands
demand this fertilizer if we
would even make pretense of
preserving It's fertility and con-
tinuing its productiyeness.
Even the farmers of Europe
thousands of miles away can
afford to buy our cotton seed
meal, convert it in to dairy
products and place its fertilizine
value on their sol S and make OF
the transaction a most profitable
one. 1t is reedless 0 sta ths
their lands hold their original
slitx although cultivated fol
hundreds Of years.
A ton of cotton seed meal fed
to Leef or dairy animal anf
the droppiugs taken care Of and
replaced on the land, is increased
in value 80percent. Then, j
prime cotton seed meal is selling
for $25.O 90 per ton. fox export
and is really worth that mucl
ii fed and handled as Indicated
its value has increased to $500
per ton.
We must increase our live
stock business to the point where
every pound Of cotton seed meal
produced in the state is utilized
at home and its real value secur
ed. 1t is not only the height oi
folly to even dream of doing
otherwise, but is bordering on
the criminal.
Our tired cotton lands need
everything in the nature of
humus and fertilizer that they
can get and in allowing cotton
seed meal to leave the state we
are allowing ourselvs to be robbed
OF fertilizing value that our
lands are sorely in need OF. Mr..
reader. wont you do your part TO
assist in stopping this enormous
leak?

IN MEMORY

Elder E. S. Clark was born
Sept. Goth 1886 and died May
4th 1915 which makes him 70
wears seven months and fourteen
days old. He was born~in Efn-
coin county Tenn. and moved
to this State when small boy
and has been a citizen of this
stat ever since.
He has been resident of this
county for a long time. He
volunteered for the war at the
age of 26 years and 2 served
part of the four long years in
the war, but his trust being in
God he was spared to go through
many of the struggles of the war
without wound. He was a
member of Go. f., IS Miss. reg
iment. He was a man that did
the right things and not the evil
and was sent back to his dear
old county for a purpose, that
being to preach the gospel, which
he has done successfully.
Brother Clark was married to
Miss Elizabeth Winfield on Sept
goth 1868 which was his 2Sth
birthday. In 1868 God called
him to preach and teach the
ungodly to repent of their sins
and live for the right. He was
dellberated by the church of old
Mt Sinai to preach and he preach
ed his first sermon at Black Jack
church using for a text, "As
Moses lifted the serpent up in
the wilderness even so the Son
Of God must be lifted up" In 1870
he was ordained by brother
Jim Russell, Bert Russell and
Tommy Tucker and we are made
to feel thankful that Brother
CLARK has never been without
any churches to serve. He has
served many different churches
doing some wonderful work in
some of them. Brother Clark
preached at Black Jack church
for 27 years, at High Hill for
IL years at one time and Ia at
another. He served other
churches for long time. The
people had great confidence in
Brother Clark because he stood
for the right, was firm TO the
cause OF Christ and praticed what
he preached. While we hate to
give our dear ones up we know
that our dear father has lived
life OF usefulness on this earth
and has entered that heavenly
home above. To his children
and all, let us live life ON this
