From Near Arcadia Heights.

The writer last Saturday made
business trip to Arcadia Heights, and
while there noticed that MIR. j, D..
Vance had been building a fine rock
bungalow, which will be used as
store-room for the books belonging
to the American Baptist Publication
Company, of Grand Avenue st. Louis,
Mo-, during the time of the Baptist
Assembly ON the Heights. This
bungalow is few yards west of the
tabernacle, and will be a great i'm
provement over the old time method
of storing the books for sale in tent,
which was often blown down in times
Of violent windstorms and many of
the books severely damaged. The
Baptist Publication Company pays all
the expense in building this bungalow,
we are reliably informed, and it is
money we'll spent, too.
Efforts will be made at an early
date to put the grounds and buildings
on the Heights in first-class condition,
with view of having a record
breaking Assembly, which will con-
vene in August next.
Mr.. Harry Dinger has been confined
to his room for several days from a
severe cold.
1t seems that the fiue is getting to
be quite prevalent in many localities,
and many deaths are reported as the
result. But so far as we have heard,
not any of those who had the disease
last year have had an attack again
this year
1t certainly is to be hoped that
some remedy may soon be discover
ed that will enable our noble physicians
to more successfully combat with this
terrible malady.
We notice that the Interchurch
World Movement, which is making a
church survey in st. Louis, has made
a report showing that in one block,
having eighty five residents, only
eleven of this number attended any
Christian church. sin this block
there is church located that is eager
to win men and women, yet 81 per
cent of the people next to its door
never enter it's place of worship, the
Church Federation asserts.o No
wonder that our ministers, like our
teachers, often get discouraged.
Looking at this proposition from its
various angles, we very readily arrive
at several causes for this condition of
attendance at church, chief of
which is that uncomfortable desire,
on the part of many so-called Christ
ians, to attend motionpicture shows
and dances. We never could under
stand why any Christions should have
any desire to frequent dances, unless
they have only enough religion to
make them miserable, indeed.
Mr.. Zolman, who for the past year
lived on your writer's farm near
RoseIle last year, has removed to
North Ironton, where he proposes to
manufacture brooms. It is said that
he makes first class broom.
We were sorry to learn of the death
:, of oT old time friend, Mr.. j. H.
Barger, at his home near Peoria, this
county. He was good man, always
ready to lend helping hand to any
worthy cause, or to those actually in
need. P.

When you sell or trade your Liberty
Bonds or War Savings Stamps you
are selling the United States short.
You are wagering that the prosperity
of the nation will decline and you are

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
Influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment Halls
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in the curative powers Of Halls
Catarrh Medicine that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that 1t fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

After Four Years
This Testimony Remains mistaken.

Time is the best test of truth. Here
is Pennington story that has stood
the test of time. 1t is story with
point which will come home to many
of US.
N. L. Joggerst, proprietor marble
shop, Pennington, Mo-, says: "About
a year ago l had a lame back and
pains across my loins 1t hurt me to
stoop or lift. My kidneys showed
signs Of weakness and were too fre
quent in action. I didn't rest well at
nights, and mornings felt stiff and
lame. Two bottles of Doan's Kidney
Pills corrected the kidney annoyance
and soreness in my back"
AGAIN PRAISES DoAN's

said: sit hasn't been necessary for
me to take Eoan's Kidney Pills lately,

Do A GOOD TURN DAILY

Scouts feel that by inducing every
one to join in the good turn for
one week they will have done a com
munity good turn that will be OF
lasting worth.
The Scouts find lots of way OF do

they performed one that helped lots

trees for birds last year and took
active part in Red Cross, War CoGl-

In the past the Ardmore Scouts made
