Economy and pep"

Economy and pep"
Made from a formula that uses iron
in most diSestibIe form, pepsin and
gentian, great stomach tonics, nuX and
celery, the hest vegetable remedies for
the nerves and also manganese and
other valuable nutrients-there's no
question of the value of Peptiron as
a Hood builder and strengthener.
The larger size of Peptiron contains
enough for q full months treatment,
while Other. so-called iron prepara-
tons contain only ope-half or less.
The "pap' or promptness with
which Peptiron does its work is noted
by everyone who takes it.
From the first dose the system re-
spends 10 the treatment, and you
realize you are at last using a medi-
cine that hegins right, continues and
ends righl. Better get q bottle of
Peptiron today. Take two Peptiron
after each meal-then comes good

BOLSHEVISM GREATEST
MENACE, SAYS BROUCH

NEW Albany, Miss, May 80. (spi.)
Gov. C. H. Brough Of Arkansas, a
former Mississippian, well known here,
made an address to the people of New
Albany at the courthouse Thursday az
ternoon, taking for his subject 1.-THE
Worlds War and American Patriot
ISM"
In the course of his address Gov.
Brough asserted that the next contest
in which the peoples of the world would
be called to take part would not be
armed conflict, but a contest between
the forces of law and order and Bolsh-
evism. He lauded President Wilson, de-
claring that he was the greatest presi-
dent since the nation was born, and
declared that the United States was
the Sir Galahad OF the nations. The
future Of the United States, declared
Gov. Brough, was enduring because the
government was founded upon right
principles and ideals, which we tried
to live up to as shown by our advo-
eacy of the league or nations. That
our children and children's children
would never know or hear of wars or
rumors of war, save sporadic guerrilla
warfare such as exists now in Mexico,
was the prediction of Gov. Brough.

ARE FAR BEHIND
NEAR HUNTINGDON

HUNTINGDON, Tenn, May 80. (Spl.)
The first of June finds the Carroll
county farmers farther behind with
their crops than they have been in
20 years and with poorer prospects for
a yield. Less than so per cent of an
average crop OF cotton has been plant
ed and the continued wet weather has
prevented cultivation and the growth
of the cotton that Is up has been
greatly retarded.
Very little corn Is planted and the
sweet potato crop Is peing planted in
mud and plants are growing off slowly.
The fruit outlook for peaches. apples
and blackberries Is very good. This
win be the first time in several years
that We have had q good crop of these
fruits the same year. 1T Is hoped, how
ever, that with a dry June much prog
ress will be made n land hat was
