On Saturday, October 7th, the
Supreme Court affirmed the decision
of the lower court in the Allen case,
and as soon as County Attorney Sui
livan was advised Of this fact by wire,
he caused a commitment to be is
sued and Allen was taken into Gus
tody. His attorneys made strenuous
efforts to secure his release, arguing
that the commitment was prema-
turely issued, but without avail. The
official mandate was received from
the Supreme Court today, and Sheriff
Krisle will leave with Allen for the
penitentiary at Lansing this evening
Thursday. Thus closes the chap

ing convicted, would never go to the
pen, are entitled to another guess

him mammoth sweet potato. That

kind to sell, however, and although
his crop is not all dug, he claims to
have run across several nearly the
size of this one. From 100 plants
he will have enough for his own win
ter use. This is not his banner crop,
however. From a melon patch of
less than half acre the family have
eaten since they first began to ripen,
he has given unstintedly to his
friends and neighbors and has sold
cantaloupes and watermelons to the
amount of $50. His garden is not
irrigated and this has been an excep-
tionally dry year. We don't know
what Mr.. Bradford will do in a year
of plenty of rainfall.-Guymon Her.

Caution!

With a shortage of ships to move our
cotton to foreign shores; with no IN
dication of the end of the war; with
the Nation stirred over preparedness
for eventuaities; with the buying
power of the entire world gradually
lessening day by day, it becomes our
duty to issue this formal warning as
the time of planting cotton is at hand.
Let everyone encourage the farmer
to be on the safe side by raising plenty
of feed and food for the community az
we'll as for himself, his family, and his
live stock. "a calf, a pig, chickens,
and garden often mean the difference
between want and money ahead J
Economical and safe living for all as
we'll as safe farming must be the
rule if prosperity Is to abide with Us.
Sx-cvnt cotton this fall would spell
disaster in the cotton States. Low
price follows over-supply as certainly
as the night the day. High prices and
prosperity over the South this year
prove what voluntary reduction of cot
ton acreage does Any marked IN
crease acreage over last year Is going Il
result in great loss to Southern cot
ton producers, merchants. and bankers.

AN OLD MANS STOMACH

AS we grow older and less active, less
and less food is required to meet the
demands of our bodies. If too much is
habitually taken, the stomach will re-
bel. When a man reaches the advan-
ced age of IS or 80 you will find that
he is light eater. Be as careful as
you will, however, you will occasional
ly eat more than you should and will
feel the need of Chamberlain g Tablets
to correct the disorder. These tablets
do not contain pepsin, but strengthen
the stomach and enable it to perform
its functions naturally. They also
cause a gentle movement Of the bowels.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink a
-teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. It is the most
effective way to break cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving q cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
