heavy bloated feeling and such dis
tresses due to Indigestion or dyspep-

yet they may lead to serious disorder
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-

a high degree the intelligent selection
of preventative measures.
One cannot always select or in
spect the quality of food to be eaten
nor its method or manner Of prepa-
ration. But it is possible To avoid
the acidity that is so often the re-
suit. And it ia a far better plan to
eat without worry over what may
happen than to starve for fear 1t
will happen. Many physicians rec
ommend these tablets for stomach
distress due to indigestion or dys-
pepsia.
They are sold by all druggists
everywhere at 60 cents a box-Adv'

Caught Holes
Full of EN-

Dave O'Dell and James Coffel, of
this city, spent several days hunting
last week on Big River, near Iron
dale. They had with them several
good hunting dogs, one in particular,
belonging to Mr.. O'Dell, which the
owner claims is a past master at fer
reting out coons. This dogs scent
for, coons is also unvarying when it
comes to trailing 'possums, skunks
and less oderiferous animals, as the
accortment of game hagged on that
trip proves.
In single hole they took captive
twelve skunks, though just how they
secured them without gas masks we
have not been informed. From an
other hole they secured two 'possums
and three skunks, all apparently
dwelling together in peace and har-
mony, which we understand is a most
unusual condition of affairs. The to-
tai bag of this trip was fifteen pos
sums, twenty coons and fifteen skunks.
Considering the high price of hides at
present, it would appear that hunting
would be a more profitable industry
for Mr.. 0'Dell at this season Of the
year than is spreading cement.

Ingenious Way Of
Utilizing Waste

Another instance Of the ingenuity
Of the public, when necessary, Was
brought to the attention Of The Times
this week. During the recent coal
crisis many families in the Lead Belt,
who were unable to secure fuel, were
hard put to find way to keep warm.
Around the furnaces and the mines N
the Lead Belt considerable slack has
been thrown out Of the coal when 1t
was unloaded and burned. To these
supplies of slack the people turned as
a last resort for fuel.
Slack packs down very. closely and
thus, when it is placed on fire, nearly
always succeeds in putting it out. lo
overcome this draw back the slack was
placed in tin cans and when this com
bination fuel was placed on the fire,
the air was allowed to circulate more
freely and both the tin cans and the
slack were consumed. This system IS
said to have proved very satisfactory.
An added feature of this novel
scheme to use up the slack, which had
been considered worthless, as have also
the tin cans, is that the burning of tin
cans id the fire cleans out the SCOT
which deposis in the stove pipe and
chimney, and thus reduces the danger
of fire.
Much of this Combination fuel" is
reported to have been used within the
past weeks by those who have had ac-
cess to any of the slack supply. In
some places slack was dug out Of the
ground, in layers Of two to three feet,
where it had been covered over by pas
sing Of wagons and other vehicles.

The Times
47th Birthday

According to the records in this Of
flee, last week completed the 46th
year Of continuous publication OF The
Pennington Times, so that this week
marks its 47th birthday. While this
record is not absolutely eorrect-this
paper having been established in the
fall, instead of in mid-winter--in the
passirg of many years the proper
marking of the number has at some
time been overlooked, SO that twelve
or thirteen weeks have been lost sight
Of by failure to register the correct
number each week. In this, however,
the paper has not been attempting to
escape its actual age, as it is said
some folks do.
The Times is in no manner ashamed
of its age, which fails to weigh heay-
lily upon it. During it's many an} 81.
tive years it has perhaps passeG
through the usual amount of sunshine
and shadow. But, since the present
management has been in control, dur
ing the past four years, practically all
has been sunshine. Of course the pro-
duction of the paper has represented
much work, hard and incessant, but
the individual or institution that OBJ
jects to work, with even minimum
amount of sunshine, is already dead"
For the coming year The Times is as
fit for the continuance Of a vigorous
existence-always pushing ahead for
the good and upbuilding of Farming
ton and st. Francois county-as it was
at its birth, with greater experience
and strength for the accomplishment
of real good for its friends and read
ers, as well as for this entire COM
munity.

Eva who reside with their father, and

County n ospital
Election Called OF

4 Judge j. S. Clay, as representative
of the petitioners for special elec-
tion to vote bonds for the purpose Of
building a county hospital, appeared
before the County Court Monday, and
asked leave to withdraw the petition,
stating as reason that he did not
think the proposition, at this time,
would meet with the approval Of the
voters, and that a great expense would
be saved IL the election would be de-
clared off. The Court granted the re-
quest for the withdrawal Of the petit
tion, and ordered cancelled and an
nulled the order calling said election.

Hot School
Lunches Fine

There is much to be said in favor of
hot school lunches, from the stand
point of the child, the mother and
the teacher. The child who is unable
to- go home for his lunch, is able to do
better work during the afternoon if
he has something hot with his noon
meal, as the hot dish aids digestion,
he takes more time and eats more
slowly, and is thus better nourished,
and goes back to his desk brighter
and more alert mentally and physi-
cally. The task of putting up lunches
is made easier for the teacher, and
is made easier for the mother, and she
is assured the child has one good,
plain wholesome dish at noon. The
teacher finds the afternoon work cas-
ier and discipline lighter when children
are able to have warm lunch.
These are some of the reasons why
the Parent Teacher Association is
making plans to try the experiment.
of serving hot lunches at the High
School building when school re-opens
after the holidays.
AS there is no equipment Of any
kind at the school, committee OF
men is helping with this part Of the
work. The women Of Pennington, es-
pecially all who are interested in the
welfare Of the children, may aid ma
terially by sending in materials that
may be used in the making of simple
soups, and by offering their services
to help in the preparation of food un-
til such time as help can be employed
for that purpose.
1 Anyone wishing to assist in this en-
terprise may obtain information by
calling Mrs. Bleeck, or Mrs. John
Karsch.

REV. MARKLEY BILLY SUM-
DAYING" IN ST. LOUIS

Rev. ii. M. Markley, VINO was trans
ferred by the last Conference of the
M. E. Church, South, from several
years pastorate of the church at Flat
River to the Scruggs Memorial Meth
odist Church, 3678 Cook Avenue, st.
Louis, seems possessed of the idea Of
getting into the lime-light by more or
less sensational preaching. Instead
of following In the footsteps OF Him
whom Rev. Markley processes to be
serving, the reverend gentleman IS
evidently trying to push everyone into
hell who fails or refuses to see things
through his glasses. Here are ex-
tracts from his sermon of last Sunday,
as it appeared in the Globe-Democrat
In speaking of the harm, which is
being done by the dance halls, Rev.
Markley said that the modern dances
are sindecent, immoral and vicious.
The modern dance is SO lascipfous in
its movements" he said, shat no one
can dance it without committing the
sin of immortality" He also presented
statistics purporting to show that
nineteen out Of every twenty girls
who go wrong attribute their down.
fall to associates whom they met in
dance halls. e., ,.ss Il
Clothing Also Denounced
Along the same line Rev Markley
attacked the modern clothing OF Wo-
men. He said that the dress of the av-
erage girl today is an invitation to in
decencies from men, and that mothers
who permit their daughters to wear
forrn-fitting, low-necked, French heels
and silk hosiery are jeopardizing their
future welfare and safety. He said
that many mothers permit their
daughters to wear such clothing with
the idea that it will accentuate their
charm among men and without re-
gard of the risks involved.
AS a remedy for these modern
evils, the minister suggested social
life for young people within the
church. He said that young men and
women can enjoy themselves as well
at church sociables and similar gath
erings as at public functions. He al
SO urged the development Of the "mu-
nicipal gathering" idea for young
people under suitable chaperons.
Rev. Markley touched on the evils
of tobacco, and especially on cigar,
cites. "The people of the United
States have come to realize the evils
of liquor" he said. "The next fight
will he against cigarettes"
