Baptist News and Notes.

The average attendance at the Bible
School, so far in the month of Janua-
ry, has been encouraging. However,
by no means jail the Baptist popula-
ton of the Valley is in regular at
tendance.
Lost Sunday morning the auditori-
um was fairly we'll filled at the time of
the morning worship. The assistance
given the choir of late has made the
pastor rejoice. Now if all could come
regularly to the practice on Wednes-
day evening his joy would be full.
'Wo hope to have q plan to lay be-
fore our people next Sunday that will
be of interest to all. Let every mem
Der who can possibly do so be pres
emit. Please see Exodus 14:15.

knew the subject of this memoir
for longer than fifty years, and knew
her as one whose Christian profession
was but the crown to her heart and
understanding. Unselfish, charitable
in its every sense, devoted the call
of duty as wife, mother and neigh
Dor, she did not weary in well-doing,
and her kindly, cheerful presence
blessed those with whom she came in
contact. She lived daily the life of a
good woman-there's no dearer tri-
butte given earth-and died with every
assurance given to mortal that through
all eternity a life of love and glory
awaited her.

Rational Home Remedy 4
yAas
For WrInkled, Eoggy sk.a

Bathing the face in a simple lotion
made as follows, is the best thing
known to dispense wrinkles, from the
finest lines 10 the deepest crowsfeet:
Powdered saNolite, one ounce, dis.
solved in Witcii-haZel, one-half pint.
Your nearest druggist can supply the
constituents. 1t is natural and
rational treatment, as it tends to re-
move the cause of those tell-tale signs
OF advancing age, worry or i'll health.
Having both astringent and tonic
properties, the solution tightens The
tooloose skin and tends to soidify
the underlying muscular tissue. This
smooths out the wrinkles and gf4es
the skin firmer supporting founda-
ton.
Obviously this effect must also re-
duce hanging cheeks, double chin and
baggy neck. The remarkably prompt
action of this harmless lotion is an
other commendable feature.

Field work has been almost at a

Oats and barley seeding progressed
slowly, and it is now almost too late

Thrift Sales Week is Backed by Repu
tation Of the Merchants Estab-
iished IN Dollar Day
Sales.
ALL LINES ARE IN IT
The Big Sale Will Knock al" Out Of
the n. c. Of l., According to
the Merchants
Here.

Keokuk merchants are going to
knock HI" out of that very familiar
bugaboo, the H. G.. Of L., next week
in the thrift sales which they are
sponsoring. This sale, which will
begin Monday and last all week, will
be one of the biggest things the
merchants have attempted, and shop
pers in Keokuk next week are as
sured of bargains in all lines of mer-
chandise.
The high reputation Of the Keokuk
merchants is back of this sale. The
reputation for honest goods and hon
est values established during the
dollar day sales will stand back of
every statement made in the adver
tisements. Keokuk's merchants made
record on their dollar day bargains,
and this sale next week will be on
similar basis.
The sales are being put on under
the direction of the trade extension
committee Of the Keokuk CONNER
cial club. j. w. Winger is the Chair
man of this committee, and he has
succeeded in getting .hirly-fiye of
Keokuk's leading merchants il every
line into the sale next week.
People who buy in Keokuk next
week can get everything from a
cake OF soap and toothbrush to
suit Of clothes and hat, OF a Geor-
gette waist and all that goes with
the fluffy ruffles of a woman's ward
robe, for prices that are COINS 10
knock old man Hi Cost out IN
hurry.
Read the advertisements in toonr-
row nights paper, mark the ones
you're interested in, and then plan to
come to Keokuk to shop next week.
The sale will last all week, and there
will be lots of good bargains at
prices that will make people forget
that Wilson is still keeping us in war.
