: PRAcFIIeeAL PRAYER


Without Invocation or doxology
and void Of the usual phfaseologg
Of devotion, the following prayer by
George AIDE nevertheless has in it the
ring Of the practical, the aspiring
and the true:
Teach me that sixty minutes make
an hour, sixteen ounces make a pound,
one hundred cents make one dollar.
Help me to live SO true that can lie
down at night with a clear conscience,
unhaunted by the faces of those to
whom / have brought pain. Grant
that | may earn my meal ticket on the
square; deafen me to the jingle Of
tainted money, and the rustic Of un-
holy skirts. Blind me to the faults
Of others, but reveal to me my own,
and then when the deepening shadows
gather in the Great Silence let the
ceremony be brief, the epitaph simple,
Here lies man." Biblical Recorder.

At this time it will pay every farm
er to increase the number of fowls
in his flock not only for the purpose
of producing plenty of eggs for a
ready market, which will undoubted-
ly be the case, because of the high
price of various kinds of meat. but
for the production of meat because
chicken flesh can be produced on less
grain per pound than any other
class of livestock found on the farm
and since chicken meat is palatable
to most people and the
comparative prices between chickens
and other kind of meats will increase
the demand for them and a real profit
can be realized. Raising more chick
ems without a great deal of labor
and scarcely any expense and sure
profit is real advantage for most
Arkansas farmers.

In spite of the best care one takes
of oneself, any part OF the human machine
is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily recognized and IN
clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritabilty, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.

LIFT. YOUR C0RNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn
or callus so it lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is APP
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without infaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will peti-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn't any freezone he can get
It at any wholesale drug house for you.
