EATONIC Users
DO This Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago. Ill.-Thousands of reports
from people all over the U. S. who
have tested Eatonic, show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using it for
few weeks, taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that it stops
Belching, Bloating. Heartburn, and
Stomach Miseries quickly, but the
really lasting benefits are obtained by
using Eatonic long enough to take the
harmful excess acids and gases entire
ly out of the system. This requires a
little time, for Eatonic takes up the
excess acidity and poisons and carries
them out of the body and Of course,
when 1t Is all removed, the sufferer gets
well, feels fine-full of life and pep.
II you have been taking an Eatonic
now and then, be sure and take 1t regu-
larly for time and obtain all of these
wonderful benefits. Please speak to
your druggist about this. so that he can
tell others that need this help. Adv.

PLENTY NEXT DOOR"
Record Harvest Predicted for
Canada.

After having made a careful sur
vey of the wheat producing area OF
the United States, experts whose busi-
ness 1t is to keep the people informed
on the acreage sown to foodstuns
state that this year there will be
falling off in the wheat production In
the States. due to considerably less
area cultivated. The opinion OF these
experts is that the decrease will be
several hundred million bushels OF
wheat less than in previous years.
which according to past experience
will be scarcely sufficient to meet the
requirements of the demands of the
people of this country.
In Canada, however, the situation
is different. Reliable reports on the
crop situation throughout Western
Canada are such as to create the most
substantial optimism. Never before
were the prospects SO encouraging for
bumper harvest. 1t is predicted
that the yield this year will be even
greater than in 1915. the year of the
record harvest In Canada. when the
total production was 93.542,600
bushels. Not only is the wheat looking
excellent, but the same is true of oats,
barley and fax, of which a greatly
increased acreage has been sown in
the great grain producing provinces Of
Canada.
The rains that have fallen recently
have come at the right time to stimu-
late growth and there is now consider
able moisture in the ground. With
the world generally facing a shortage
Of wheat and continued heavy de-
mand for 1t, the price is likely to be
maintained at the present high figure.
In many districts corn has been more
extensively planted than In previous
years and 1t Is looking remarkably
well. Many settlers from the United
States who came to Western Canada
and bought improved farms In tho
early spring have every prospect Of
a crop yield that will give them a re-
turn sufficiently large. after paying
all current expenses. to pay OF a large
part of their capital investment.

Lockney Not Elected

Hon. Henry G. LOckncy, who was an
avowed candidate for prosecuting Mt
torney and Il reluctant and unwilling
candidate for state senate on the Re-
publican ticket in the late unplea SAINT
ness, was here Tuesday looking after
matters political. Mr.. Lockney was of
opinion that he will be the next senator
from this district whether he would or
no. But figures compiled by the
Chronicle show that Mr. LOckney is i'm
error in thinking that the voters of
this senatorial district had forced the
Office upon him.
Hon. j. y. Shackelford, of Chenille.
one of the two Democrats elected To
the state senate, carried this county by
300. Gilmer by 400. and Webster by
800. Mr.. Lockney carried Braxton by
- and POcahOntas by probably 300
Thus il will be seen that Mr.. Shackel-
ford has what looks TO us Democrats
In our present light, majority of
something over n million.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Lock
ney made quite a determined campaign
against himself for the senate sent.
claiming that he had not authorized
the use of his name by the secretary of

friends are now wondering what the
result would have been had he made
his campaign in the opposite direction.

County Records Getting
Much Needed Attention

Calhoun county citizens who were
here this week in attendance upon the
regular November term of county court
found q regular and complete hook
bindery i'm operation i'm the court room
The work that Is being done i'm the
bindery, which Is up-tO-date in every
respect, is the re-binding and restoring
OF old county records that have been
worn and defaced by constant use since
the formation of this county i'm 1856. or
more than sixty-four years ago. The
work Is being done by the James Ward
Company under a contract with the
county court and will not be completed
until about the first of the coming year.
Mr. Ward and his assistants are do
ing some wonderfully fine work. Many
of the books Of records of valuable land
titles in the county clerks Office had be-
come about worn out and were i'm de-
plorably dilapidated condition Not
only were the bindings gone. but in
many instances the pages were torn
and mutilatcd. None of these condi-
tions hold any terrOrs for the Wards.
and they are rapidly restoring the
records to their original freshness and
preserving them permanently.
This work IS being done not n whit
too soon. Many Of the valuable records
were nearly gone and il would have
boen n matter OF only a short time un-
I'll there would have been gaps i'm the
record of land titles. The cost OF this
work viii not amount to small frac.
ton of the value Of the property In.
volved, and the court should be encour-
aged to go as far with u as financial
conditions will permit.

FIRST AID TRAINING
TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose Of instruction In First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
icaU Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently whom
emergencies demand 1t. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place Of physicians service. A sur
geOn should always be summoned as
a precautionary measure where there
is an injury Of any consequence, but
when ono cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean fatality. In
such case a person trained in First
Aid Is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the com
munity In which he lives.
There is perhaps DO way of sscer-
tanning the number OF deaths or serl-
Gus dlsablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards OF prompt
emergency treatment 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation Of First Aid methods to each
case would immeRBurnbly Tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination OF First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced a farreaching and beneficial In
Auence in the prevention Of accidents
OIL railroads, in mines and in great in
dustrisl concerns
The beneat OF q widespread knOwl-
edge OF First Aid I'm the event OF 2
great disaster, sucl as q train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, etc. is
obvious Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
% the forms ton and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, OF classes for In
strucdOn In accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women In all communities aud In
every industry; (2) the introduction Of
courses OF instruction Ia high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross IL prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
do so should, In his own interest, re-
ceiye Ped Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and In
struction classes may be bad at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

Mr. Maeterlinck visited the Goldwyn
studio at Culver City, Cal. TO study
the making of motion pictures in prep

her that her acting was splendid.
Miss Chadwick has a part in the

both comedy and emotional acting. In
the first part of the story she is a
young girl who has run away from
school with the idea of becoming a
