From the Poplar Bluff Citizen
Democrat: edward F. Goltra of st.
Louis, II of the most prominent iron
men of the Mississippi valley and
who built and made q success Of Sligo
and who is now building a ten million
dollar iron furnace in the environs of
St. Louis, was in the county on Sun
day going over the iron lands of the
community. So quietly was the whole
thing done that few know anything
and especially those who are expect
ed to know, know nothing. The
American knows positively, however,
that Goltrs was here and that he went
over the iron lands. Nothing can be
learned of his object or his plans but
one guess would be sufficient to say
that he was looking into them as a
mining proposition. Whether or not
the lands would be operated and the
ore shipped to st. Louis for smelling
or a furnace built in this community
is q question. Poplar Bluff has al
ready let one two million dollar fur
mace get away. 1t is on some hills
west of here at a place built since and
called Mido. If Goltra takes over the
lands, he should be interested in build
ing a furnace here"

rose to the occasion splendidly, and, so
far as the dinner itself was concerned,
Mrs. Robinson was Weighted.
The only fly in the ointment was
Jane, the new parlormaid; she was
slow, clumsy, and her waiting was bad,
But, in addition to these faults, she in
sisted on keeping her mouth wide open.
This so got on Mrs. Robinson's
nerves that at last she exclaimed:

Jane withdrew her gaze from the

Weekly Health Talks
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done for Humanity
BY DOCTOR GRIPS.

It has always seemed to me that DR..
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, should be placed
near the top when list of Americas
great benefactors is written. He studied
and conquered human diseases to a de-
gree that few realize. Whenever he found
q remedy that overcame disease, he at
once announced it in the newspapers and
told where it could be bought at small
price. He did not follow the usual custom
of keeping the ingredients secret, SO that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name of
each root and herb he used. And so today
the names of Or. Pierce and his medicines
are widely known, and they stand for bet
Ter health and better citizenship.
One of this great physicians most sue
cessful remedies is known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. These are little, sugar.
coated pills, composed of Mayapple, leaves
of aloe, root of jalap-things that Nature
grows in the ground. These Pellets are
safe because they move the bowels gently,
leaving no bad after-efects, as so many
pills do. Very often they make person
who takes them feel like new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines of
hard, decayed and poisonous matter that
accumulates when one is costive. If you
are constipated, by all means go to your
druggist and get some of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. They may prove to be
the very thing your system requires to
make you well and happy.

To be possessed of a head of heavy
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is merely
q matter of using a little Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get q
small bottle of Knowlton'S Danderine
now-it costs but a few cents-all drug
stores recommend it-apply little as
directed and within ten minutes there
will be an appearance of abundance,
freshness, f1uffiness and an incompara-
BILE gloss and lustre, and try as you
will you cannot find trace of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use,
when you will see new hair-fine and
downy at first-yes-but really new
hair-sprouting out all over your scalp
-Danderine is, we believe, the only
sure hair grower, destroyer of dan
druff and cure for itchy scalp, and it
never fails to stop falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty and
soft your hair really is, moisten cloth
with a little Danderine and carefully
draw it through your hair-taking one
small strand at time. Your hair will
be soft, glossy and beautiful in just
a few moments-a delightful surprise
awaits everyone who tries this. Adv
