wARrERF1ELD TO MEMPHIS.
YIN. C. A. Worker Takes Up Work
at Washington Heights.

DR.. c. A. Warterfield, former pastor
at Brownsville. but for the last two
years in the army service with the Y.
M. c. A., has been assigned to the
Memphis district, according to an
nouneement of the conference last
night, and will occupy the pulpit at
the Washington Heights Methodist
Church for the next year.
He succeeds DIR. T. w. Lowery, who
has been assigned to Wilmington, in
the same district.
DIR. Warterfeld spoke Sunday
morning at IL o'clock at the Linden
Avenue Christian Church, taking as
his subject 1.-THE Gospel of Good men
for the Gcodworld." He declares that
the friends of Jesus on the night of
the last banquet, when the shadow
of Calvary fell across the table, asked
him the three great questions asked
by the world. which are:
Who knows the way across the
years; where is God, and how do you
know.
ITO each and to all these three
all encompassing questions He gave
one identical answer-Himself," de-
clared Warterficld.
He also declared that the world
will be one-half hell and the rest of
1t bedlam until the people in 1t are
right. A good man is the solution
of every question, he said; good
man is bigger than anything that
can happen to him.-Memphis Com

Baked Beans.


A favorite and standard recipe
for baking beans in the following:
Soak the beans over night, then rinse
and boil them until the skins crack
when blown upon but the beans are
are not quite soft. Use one-half
pound of salt pork to one quart of
beans. After boiling, pour into the
bean pot, insert the pork, the cut
rind being level with the top of the
beans. Add a pint of the water
used for boiling, having first mixed
with the water a teaspoon of salt
and two tablespoons of molasses.
The water should come about to the
surface OF the contents. Bake six
to eight hours, adding more water
when needed to prevent the top dry
ing or burning. Beans, when done,
should be thoroly softened, but not
mushy, and should retain their shape.

Weak and Greatly Run Down.
Herb Medicine The Only One to
Show Results.

Dreco," declares Mrs. W. S. s. ,arne
wife of the we'll known p v+bovood
farmer, in signed sta. cement, "Con-
stipation caused re the greatest
distress and / also suffered from
stomach disorder, pains in the back
and limbs I was very weak and
even a short walk tired me out.
Dreco has increased my strength so
much. I was surprised recently at
the distance I can now walk without
being the least bit tired.
'I,ye tried most all the popular
advertised medicines but none has
done me the good like Dreco. I am
buying three more bottles today"
In order to enjoy living, eating
and sleeping to the utmost, it is nee
esSary that all the human machine
should be always in first class run
h4ng order. Just let one OF the
vital organs get the least bit out Of
hitter and the effect is soon felt
throughout the body.
Tired, rundown, Istless people
need a good; reliable invigorant and
body reconstructent to set them on
the road to perfect, robust health.
Just such a medicine as Dreco is
what hundreds Of men and women of
his section are praising every day
in signed interviews and testimon-
ials.
After everything else fails there
is still hope that Dreco, the peer of
all natural herb medicines, will do
for the tired, rundown system, just
what is required to bring back the
bloom of life and health once more.
Dreco contains no mineral acids
! or dangerous metallic salts. It is
made up purely from roots, herbs,
barks .and berries known for their
natural medicinal value.
Dreco is sold at best drug stores
and pharmacies almost everywhere
and is particularly recommended in
Abbeville, by P. B. Speed.-Adv.

CHANGE THE TIME.

The resolution adopted by the
state senate on yesterday looking to
an adjournment of the legislature
until July should have. serious con-
sideration if, as the doctors think,
the dangers of contracting the pre-.
vailing disease is increased by pub
ic assemblies Of the people. We
could not imagine a better place to
spread the disease than in the two
houses of the General Assembly, al
:vays crowded, always over-heated,
and always but poorly ventilated.
And this leads US to suggest that
It IS a good time for the members of
the General Assembly to consider
changing the time of meeting perma-
nently. The General Assembly is
supposed to be composed of repre-
sentatives of the people from all pro-
fessions and all callings. There is
not more inopportune time in the
year for people to leave their homes
ana places OF business than in Janu-
ary and February. 1t is the busiest
season of the year for the lawyer
and the banker; the farmer should
be at home for the purpose of be-
ginning planting operations, and lay
ing plans for the future crop; the
merchant must be at home for the
collection of his accounts, and the
financing of his business for another
year; while there is no season Of the
year which makes greater or more
persistent demands upon the physi-
clan than in these two months.
: And Speaking Of the physicians,
we are reminded that it is in these
months that colds, pneumonia, la
grippe, and kindred diseases, are
most apt to be contracted, and to re-
sult fatally. There is not a session
