reaved parents.

Brother Etheridge returned Sat
urday night from Arkankas, where
held a profitable revival, and left
Sunday afternoon for Milan, where
he is this week engaged in a tent
meeting.
Returning home, Brother Ether
idge witnessed the killing of a man
on the train just before reaching
Memphis, three shots being fired into
the poor fellows body, death ensu-
ing shortly. Last spring, while at
Trezevant, Brother Etheridge stood
afar off and saw the cyclone wreck
a house and kill two people. 1t seems
that his life is full of exciting events.

YES! Llr A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN !
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
Up a corn or caIIus 30 1t lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
"A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or calIus. This should be tried,
az it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
elf your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his Wholesale drug house. 1t IS
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time.

diamond and two sapphires; lost

day. Reward for it's return.-Valda

Mr.. R. L. Wright, residing south
of Martin, a good, industrious FARM
er, has leased the Walter McClain
farm, in the Tenth district, south of
Dresden, and tells US he will move
to same about Christmas.
Mr.. Dent, late of Michigan, but
formerly of Sharon, has taken po-
sition. as automobile repairman at
Taylor & Rea's garage in Dresden,
entering upon his duties last Monday.
The young man comes highly recon-
mended as being an expert, and Tay-
lor & Rea will stand behind his work
with their guarantee.
Col. Jas. Ezzell was here Monday
from Newsom and informs us that
crop conditions in Middle Tennessee
are ideal; that corn is of fine quail
ity and very large yield and other
crops in proportion. He says he has
IL acres of alfalfa which he has cut
three times this season, getting so
tons from the three cuttings, and
expects 20 tons at the next cutting,
which will be next week. This is
about $3.50 per acre, and if the land
in that vicinity will do this, what
would good land in Weakley county
produce if put in alfalfa?
Citizens here Monday morning
from the Little Zion neighborhood,
eight miles notheast of Dresden, state
that Sunday mornings rain did a vast
amount of damage to growing crops,
lands and roads in that community.
Sorghum cane was washed down and
will be a total loss, and other crops
suffered from the deluge. A pecu-
liar thing about this rain was that
at the depot in Dresden hard rain
fell while in the west portion of town
the dust was not even settled. Mud
creek west of Dresden was all but
out of it's banks, while the road along
side was perfectly dry.
Mr.. H. L. Smith, principal of the
Sharon High School, having been
drafted into the army service has
made it necessary for the school
board to make temporary arrange
ments for the opening of school, and
Prof. Green Hawks, first assistant
principal of the school, will take
Smiths place. The latter has weak
eyes and there is probability, it is
thought by the board at Sharon, of
his being rejected upon his final ex-
animation at Atlanta. Pending this
examination Mr.. Hawks, one of the
best school men the county affords,
will take Smiths work in the school,
and then should Smith finally be
passed for service permanent ar
rangements will be made, Mr.. Jack
Shannon informs US.

CIRCUS PAGEANT
A GORGEOUS FETE
"AIaddin and His Wonderful Lamp"
New Barnum and Bailey Open
ing Feature, Is Wonder
fully COstumed

The Barnum and Bailey circus,
which will be here May 81, promises
a pageant of extraordinary beauty IN
coloring and settings. Aladdin and
His Wonderful Lamp" is the title OF
the new presentation. 1t is described
as series of beautiful tableaus il
lustrating the important events in the
life of the poor Chinese boy who gain
ed possession of the magic lamp, and
ltless gifts.
From Aladdin's first rub of the lamp
TO the realization of his desire to
marry the fairest princess of his land,
the circus pageant pictures the story.
Inc wedding scene is presented IN the
center of the big arena, where it can
be seen from every seat under the bis;
top. Preceding the ceremony there
is wedding procession in which more
than 1000 men, women and children
and 500 animals will be seen. The
costuming of the pageant is described
as being more gorgeous than any
thing OF the kind ever attempted be-
fore. There are 1900 costumes made
of silks, satins and brocades, by
Chinese workers. These are embell-
ished with hundreds of yards of Chi
nese embroideries said to be worthy
oil the attention of connoisseurs in art
peedlework.
The story of Aladdin is taken from
the tales of the Arabian Nights" and
probably is the best known OF all fairy
stories. It's pOSSlDlllIleS lot .COlOTlnB
and spectacular effects make ii essen
TALLY a circus production, there being
no stationary auditorium of sufficient
size to do justice to the supernatural
accomplishments of the genie.
PLANNED five years ago, this pageant
has been in preparation ever since, and
every one of the costumes was made
in China by native workers.
The magnitude of the pageant pro-
duction takes nothing from the pro-
gram of events in air, in rings, on
platforms and in the hippodrome. To
greater extent than usual these
events will make il necessary for the
visitor to the circus to use both eyes
all of the time and wish he or she had
more eyes to grasp the whole of the
big entertainment. There are many
novelties on the program this year,
and it is promised that the augmented
army of clowns will perform a thou
sand new antics to convulse with
laughter the boys and girls, and men
and women who make up the grand
army of circus fans whose branches
are in every city in the United States

Through the winter the blood ac-
cumulates poisons because you do
not prespire enough, because you do
not live in the open air. and because
you eat more meat, mush and other
rich foods. Every spring we feel slug
glish, constipated, liver and kidney
ills beset us, colds and chronic
coughs, pimples, boils and carbun-
cles, all evidence of impure. thick,
sluggish blood.

roots and herbs, combined with sui
phur and cream of tartar-and no
better physic, blood-tonic and blood
cleanser has ever been developed.
Every spring thousands who already
know their value take them to purify

is the time to begin, so you won't
be attacked by serious ailments when

LAFAYETTE'S VISIT
TO HARRISBURG IS
VIVIDLY RECALLED

went up and the bands began to
play a triumphant welcome to the
hero when they first caught glimpse
of him upon the deck of his ship,
Lafayette was entirely overcome with
emotion. He pressed both hands to
his heart and said, ut will BURST"
then bowed his head and gave way
to his feelings. His stay in New
York was an unbroken succession of
civic functions that must have sorely
tried the endurance of the old man,
then in his siXty-fourth year. From
here he started on triumphal tour
of the twenty-four States of the
Union, covering more than five thou
sand miles, and everywhere he was
met with the widest enthusiasm.
Cities, States, legislatures, Governors
and members of Congress We'd in
their demonstrations of honor and
respect. 1t was his wish to visit all
the old battle fields in which he had
participated and all the old familiar
scenes of his Revolutionary days
he wanted to live them over again
and to point out the well-rem em ber-
ed places to his son. on the trip up
the Hudson it is related, he was on
deck early in the morning with his
son, pointing out with animated ges-
ture, the spot where Major Andre
Wayne's capture of Stony Point and
searching out with eager gaze the
house where he and Washington
were breakfasting with Mrs. Arnold
when they first learned of Arnold's
treason.
At Baltimore, a pleasant emotional
surprise had been prepared for him.
General Washington's tent filled with
many souvenirs of the commander
in-chief. had been set up for his re-
, ception, as part of the civic demon
stration. Here he was met by Gov
ernor Stevens, who rendered him the
freedom of the State and the city and
then conducted him into the tent
Lafayette, at first, did not grasp the
significance of the compliment con-
veyed in the selection of the tent
but when he stepped inside and look
ed around, he recognized at once
many of the personal belongings OF
his loved commander that had be-
come familiar to him in the old days
of storm and stress, and in a voice
of strong emotion, he said simply: 81
rem ember."
When he reached Philadelphia. q
! city associated in his memory with
many tender and thrilling recollec,
tions, the enthusiasm of the people
overleaped all bounds. A reporter
for a contemporary newspaper, writ
ing of the reception accorded him
said:
Lafayette beat in every grateful
heart. Lafayette hung on every lip
Lafayette burst from every tongue
Lafayette glowed on every cheek
Lafayette glistened in every swim
ming eye. The name of Lafayette
swelled on every gale"
| The parade in his honor was three
miles long, with seventy eight com.
panies of infantry, cavalry and ar.
tillery.
He visited Yorktown, where many
affecting demonstrations awaited
him. A field of tents, as of an army
in camp, had been spread to accom-
modate the vast throngs that as
sembled there to meet him. The old
house that had been occupied by
CORVALLIS as his headquarters in

1881. was still standing; and the
place was but little changed from
what 1T was in the days when he had
fought there.
Unveiled Monument to n German
At Camden, S. c., Lafayette assist
ed in laying the cornerstone of
monument to Baron De Kalb, the
German patriot, who had come over
in the same vessel with Lafayette,
in 1916, and volunteered his services
in the American army for three years.
De Kalb fell at the battle of Camden,
having been wounded eleven times,
and Lafayette, on this occasion, re-
called the words of Washington upon
a certain visit to De Kalb's grave:
There lies De Kalb, the generous
stranger. who came from distant
land to fight our battles and to shed
his blood for our liberty. Would to
God he had lived to share it's fruits"
Probably the most moving event in
his whole tour was his visit to the
tomb of Washington. Arriving at the
place accompanied by great con-
course of people, he gave evidences
of deep feeling as he approached the
tomb and requested that he be al
lowed to enter first alone. He descend
ed into the tomb with his head un-
covered and remained there for some
time. He returned with his face
bathed in tears and taking his son
and Levasseur by the hand he re-
entered the tomb, knelt reverently
by it, kissed it, and then threw his
arms about the shoulders of his son
and embraced him i'll silence.
The climax of the enthusiasm was
reached at the ceremony at Bunker
HILL There was nobody left at home
for miles around the country on that
day, and thousands came from every
State in the Union to be present at
the event.

1t matters not whether you have
had agonizing pains from rheuma-

sell Rheuma on a no-cure-no-pay
basis for not more than so cents a
