Jess Willard says that he will soon
be fit for return to the fight game,
and hints that he has been in secret
training for some while. He says also
that these jokes one hears about how

Those who have seen Willard re-

Stop Itching Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying a little zemo
furnished by any druggist for Csc. Extra

moment zemo is applied. In a short time
usually every trace of eczema, letter,

On ThetB Boards
"His BRIDAL NIGHT"

His Bridal Night" by Margaret
Mayo and Lawrence Rising, seen last
season as a breezy farce comedy, but
this year arranged along musical lines
will be the attraction at the Washing
ton theatre tonight. Frederick v
Bowers, as well known as composer
of popular songs as he is for his act
ing and singing, will be seen in the
stellar role. The music of the piece
is all his own, and it is claimed that
among the sixteen musical numbers
there are some tunes that are sure
fire hits.
The story. which can boast much
more of plot than is usually allotted
to musical shows, concerns the love
affairs of twin sisters. whose physical
resemblance is SO close that no one
can tell them apart. One of the twins
marries, and Immediately finds that
she prefers her sisters sweetheart.
The other girl, discerning this, de-
termines to teach her a lesson, and,
ignoring the embarrassing possible
ties Of such step. impersonates the
bride and embarks on the honeymoon
with the bridegroom.
The bride, first repentant, then en-
ragged. follows them with the other
young man. When they arrive at the
end of the honeymoon trail the hus-
band is still at loss to determine
which is his bride, and the other
young man cannot tell which is his
sweetheart. The girls, angry with
each other and with them, refuse to
set matters right, and the embarrass-
ing and humorous com Dlications are
many. The clever hand of Margaret
Mayo, who has displayed an aptitude
for anughty farce, may be seen in the
lines and situations, and she keeps
we'll within the bounds.

A. o. PICKERING.

Albert Ossian Pickering was born
July 20, 1869, at Chuckey, Tenn. He
was the youngest of five children
born to Captain Levi Pickering and
DR.. Annis Olympia Pickering. He
professed faith in Christ and joined
the Methodist Episcopal church some
years ago during a revival held at
Chuckey, Tenn, by Rev. R. E.
Walker. From that time until his
death he tried to walk in the narrow
way that leads to life eternal. He
was faithful and willing worker
in the Epworth League, Sabbath
school and all church work while
there. He left Chuckey July 4, 1916,
for Lenoir City, Tenn, and from
there went 10 Toledo, Ohio, where he
was joined by his family in the spring
of 1917. Here he remained until his
death, which occurred, after a few
months sickness, June 26, 1918.
He was preceded to the other side
by his father, mother, one sister, an
infant brother and one son. And is
survived by a wife, five sons, four
daughters, two sisters and a host of
relatives and friends.
His body was laid to rest in the
cemetery at Chuckey, Tenn. In the
absence of the pastor, Rev. 7. 0.
Brundy, the funeral services were
conducted by Mr.. Herman Rhea.
Our friends are going one by one,
And soon another viii follow on.
Who shall it be we cannot tell,
But with the soul may all be well.

Former Citizen
Dies at Home
In Mississippi

Greeneville citizens were shocked
to learn of the death of Mr., E. D.
Self, at his home, Meridian, Miss,
Sunday afternoon.
Davis Self was born and reared to
manhood in Greeneville. Some
twenty years ago he removed to Mis-
sissippi, where he married. His first
wife died about twelve years ago.
To this first union three children were
born. He was married the second
time about ten years ago, and to this
last union two cildren were born, his
last wife and all the children surviv-
ing him.
Mr. Self was 81 years of age. He
was son of the late Rev. w. F. Self.
His last visit to his old home was
only few weeks ago, when he ac-
companied the remains of his aged
father here for burial. On account
of the press of important business
at that time, he was unable to spend
but few hours here, and as a result
did not get to see many of his old
associates, acquaintance and friends.
For a number of years Mr.. Self
had been district manager in Mis-
sissippi for big insurance company.
Since the outbreak of the war he has
devoted much time to wark work and
at the time of his death he was Fed
eral labor agent for his district. He
was man that made friends easily
and had the happy faculty of retain
ing them. He will be greatly missed
by the people of Meridian and that
section of Mississippi where he was
best known.
Interment took place in Meridian
Monday afternoon by the side of his
first wife.
