THAT MORNING lAMENESS

If you are lame every morn- ing, and suffer urinary ills. there must be a cause. Often it's weak kidneys. To strength en the weakened kidneys and use Doan's Kidney Pills. You can rely on Brinkley testimony.
 Mrs. l.. c. Owens, Eastern part, says: My kidneys be- came weak; my back ached constantly and whenever | stopped over 1 had awful pains. This trouble was more severe at night and on getting up in the morning l felt stiff and lame and not a bit rested. I was so dizzy I couldn't go at one time and frequent head aches made me miserable.

A SWEET POTATO STORAGE
 HOUSE IN BRINKLEY.

New sweet potatoes will be on the Brinkley market within a few days and will be the be- ginning of the harvest of what will very probably be the South's biggest sweet potato crop, unless the seasons are very unfavorable.
 While the market demands for Southern sweet potatoes will be wider than we have ever had before, it is going to require good management to market the crop so each farmer will realize fair prices for his pro duct. The very early potatoes of course will find a ready market. At digging time, how ever, all indications are that there will be a very heavy sup ply of potatoes thrown on the market.
 Low prices may be expected unless preparations are made now to store and cure the bulk of the crop. With the potatoes stored and cured, the market ing of them at a good price is practically assured, as there is period of five or six months in which to dispose of them. It behooves, therfore, the Monroe county agent and agricultural worker to influence as many Of

Just About Town.

What about that road the Argus said would be completed from Brinkley to Wheatley by July 1st?" asked a Wheatley business man this week. Now my answer is-the Argus pub lished it just exactly like those in authority gave it out-of course the incessant rains, in tense labor conditions, etc, are to be considered as a legit- innate excuse. But say, friends, the work is going on and we'll have a road bye and bye.

their farmers as possible to put up sweet potato houses during the summer, and have them ready by digging time. The question of package is very i'm portant, but a good sound well cured potato will find a market at a fair price some time dur ing the winter in almost any kind of package, though the well graded potatoes in bushel hampers and craters will bring the best obtainable prices.
 If the Brinkley merchants and business men would only "get up in the collar" and as- sist in getting a warehouse for Brinkley this year, it would be ONE thing that they would be doing for our farmers which would come back to them ten fold.
 Wake up friends, let's go. Other towns are forging ahead because they are SERVING, why not our own?

 Mrs. Owens gave the above statement March "A, 1914 and on Feb. 10, 1919, she added: "I think just as much of Deans Kidney Pills today as when l gave my former statement. l have had no occasion to use them since for the cure they worked then has proven per manent."

Just for the benefit of those Brinkleyites, who have gone away for the summer and for information of those in other sections who do not appreciate the delightful climate of this particular section, the Argus would remind them that all week long Brinkleyites have had to sleep under blankets at night, in order to keep warm, and there has been no need of electric fans thro' the days.
 Of course this is just a little cooler than usual but even with our hottest summer weather 1t is far cooler and more delight ful here than in states further north, sometimes supposed to be summer resort states.

The interior of the barn has just been white

INDOOR SANITARY TOILETS

1t may be said in favor of indoor toilets that
they are quite convenience in home especially
in the Winter season, and the State Board of
Health has asserted that where the chemical is
properly used the contents may be buried on
tracts of land where there is plenty of room and
not near any shallow wells; but it also recon-
mends that where any city has what is known as
the dry conservatory system, as we have in this
city, the contents of indoor toilets be carried away
with night-soi and other substances dangerous
to public health.
After considering this matter in every detail
the Board of Health of this city has decided that
on account of the many shallow wells, it will be
unsafe to allow the contents Of these toilets to
be buried on the lot, in the alley, in the manure
piles or in the ash heap but they must be emptied
into scavenger pals at the of the lot often
as necessary and it will be removed once week
as other materials.
The object of this ruling is to safeguard our
shallow wells from any poisonous material what
ever.
For this service, flat rate of Is cents every
three months will be charged by the city, which
should be paid promptly. Statements will be
Distributed no discounts.
