II Pays To Advertise

Here is real estate mans story
and it is told here just to point
the moral--which of course will be
found luridly set forth at the bottom
Of this article.
A farmer had become tired OF his
farm. 1t does not matter if il was
located in Buchanan county or not.
he simply was tired of 1t. although
he had lived on it all his life, and
had been born there. When a boy
he drove the cows in from the field,
gathered apples in the orchard,
swan in the creek and carried his
books across the meadow and thru
the woods pasture to the little box
Of a schoolhouse down the north
road.
AS young man he plowed and
narrowed in the spring, made hay
and bound oats in the summer and
hauled fodder to the cattle in the
winter.
To the old home he had brought
his bride, There his three children
were born that were now grown up
and gone He was sick of the place.
He dreamed of some nice quiet spot
where conditions were ideal. where
he could pass his declining days in
comfort

Little Russell Summers, son of Mr.

June 10. 1910, and died July 10,
1917, aged 7 years and | month.
He was sick several DAYS and it
seems he knew he could not get well.
He said he wanted to so, and fell
asleep in the arms of the Savior,
He leaves father and mother alone
and Oh, what a sad home it is He
also leaves a grandfather and both

words And Deeds

So far as the war is concerned.
there are three classes Of individuals
The first man makes a grand spluree
He thinks and talks of nothing but
what we must all do. He makes
others ashamed of themselves. He
talks patriotism, sacrifice, service.
complete surrender to everything in
the country He lasts a reasonable
time and then begins to falter. until
he eventually becomes like an empty
shell, with all the contieurations of
enthusiasm on the surface, but no
kernel, In short, he peters out
The second man conceals a thor
oueh selhshnesS under a show of
patriotism, and does just enough to
avoid the reputation of the Stacker
He is always guarding his base SO
that he can 50 back and point with
pride TO what he has done.
The third man calmly takes up
the burden of the war, calculates
just how much he can do and keep
it up permanently, and refuses to
be led into sudden bursts of enthu-
siasm or speed, This is the man
who will eventually win the wal

as u distinct surprise to his many
warm personal friends here, as well
as over the state. and especially in
Nashville and Memphis

he has been rendered a position in

tina, he has accepted it on condition
OF his release from the Grove school

Mr.. Zimmerman is considered an
unusually strong and aggressive
young school man whose work in
this county has been the cause OF
congratulation from his friends who
have been closely watching his
work Since his connection with
the local school II has been said
that largely through his personal ef-
forts there has been a 10 cent high
school tax levy. and that a chain Of

TONIC FOR GROWING GIRLS

F., Most growing girls need tonic,
especially during the years when they
are springing up most rapidly and
when their appetites are most tickle.
A diet of tea and candy will ruin any
girls chances of future happiness. \
plentiful and scientifically correct dieet
might meet all requirements but tins Is
next to impossible. Hence the need
for a tonic. Almost every doctor
daughter is given tonic during her
period OF rapid growth but because your
daughter does not actually break down
you do not call doctor and she gets
thin and pale, fidgets so that she can
not sit still on a chair, eats the wrong
things, eats too fast, gets too little out

Assuming that the money could be

make a total payment of $2,55O.OOO,

This interest rate is too high as the
money could be had at probably 4
per cent. On an assessed valuation
of over 100000 the state tax
would be but one tenth of one per
