iency Of Thedford's Black Draught, the

vouched for by Mr.. W. N. Parsons, .
grocer Of this city. "It is without
doubt the best liver medicine, and I
don't believe I could get along without
1t. take 1t for sour stomach, head

out it in the house. It will do all It
claims to do. / can't say enough for
It,"
Many other men and women through
out the country have found Black
Draught just as Mr. Parsons describes
valuable in regulating the liver to
its normal functions, and in cleansing
tho bowels Of impurities.
Thedford's Black raught liver medi-
sine is the original and only genuine.

WE MAY HAVE
WOMAN MAYOR
Correspondent Hears Rumors
That Lady. May be Candidate
for Towns Chief Office
This Spring.
Editor the News:

Editor the News:
A rumor has reached me that the
women of the city, those particular
ly who are identified with the w. c.
t. u, Womans Club and Civic League
are planning to put woman can
didate in the field for Mayor in the
election to be held this June. This
may seem startling to some of the
older citizens who have held that wo-
mans place was in the home; that
she has no business mixing in poll
tics, and that the least she has to
do with things political the better it
will be for the homes and the COM
ing men and women who are runninl.
wild on the streets Mt all times of
day and night. But the women have
rs much to say in the government of
the country now as the men, and If
they are disposed to make an effort
to take over the reins of government
from the men, let them try it. a
woman Mayor for Tazewell might
not be so bad. With her honor pre-
siding at the council meeting and sit
ting in judgment on the evil docrs,
some good might come out Of it. Il
we had q woman Mayor, bootlegors
and their patrons had better camn
without her bailiwick. The first man
she would see drunk OH the street
sho would order the sergeant to
fetch him in, and the old soak would
have to either lie outright or tell his
source Of supply. Rumors reaching
her that the prohibition laws were
being violated, she would order the
sergeant to bring the offenders in
she wouldn't wait for evidence that
would stand in court-all that she
would want would be reports or
street talk before getting busy. She
would mess things all up, you say?
Well don't know. She would Mt least
make an honest effort to let the evil
doors know that there wns prohibi-
tion law, and if she ever rot hold of
n bootleggor or moonshincr, it
would be the limit Of iail sentence
and fine for him.
Mayor Buchanan. who has served
the Town SO faithfully for several
years is anxious to surrender thu
reihs OF Office, and has positively de-
clined to be candidate for reelection
He has made an efficient officer whom
the Town people have looked on with
pride, and he would no doubt be will
ing to advise his lady successor in
legal matters, and keep the town out
of trouble. If we are going to have
woman Mayor, why not go the whole
way and have council of womon,
too. Elect member Of the w. C. IT.
U. ms Mayor, and watch things move.

A WORD TO SUNDAY SCHOOL
SUPERINTENDENTS.

The statement was made here the
other day in the County Council OF
the County Association, that rs per
per cent. or three fourths, of the
Sunday schools in the county, clos
ed during the winter months, open
ing up about April 1st or later. AL
so, that the public schools ran all
the winter, rain or shine. The rea-
son for this unchristian and unholy
conduct of the Sunday school people
is evidently, that the day schools
are regarded of the greater impor-
tance.
Secular education is of great i'm
portance, of course, but no just and
Christian view will place this above
the Importance of moral and relig-
ious training, such as is obtainable
these days only in the Sunday
,,schools. The devil and his agents
keep school seven days in the week,
the year around, and every hour of
every day. The church keeps school
about one hour week and only half
of the year.
1t therefore appears that, If the
Sunday school closes for half the
year it will give only twenty four
hours Zone hour on Sunday for 6
months-24 Sundays) Bible instruc-
tion per year. Is it any wonder that
our young people are growing up in
ignorance of the Bible? Is it any
wonder that the powers of evil get
in their work?
The rank and file of men and wo-
men, even we'll educated people, are
amazingly ignorant of the Bible. Is
there not a reason?
An effort will be made to have a
general revival in the Sunday schools
of the county during this spring and
summer. An appeal is herein made
to every pastor and Sunday school
superintendent in every church in
the county, to take hol dafresh of the
Lords work along this line. A dead
or Inefficient Sunday school means a
dead or inefficient church every time.
Take hold afresh, and prayerfully,
of this great work which has been
given US to do.-President County S.
| S. A.

SUGGESTIONS FOR PREPARING
WOOL.

Members of the pool are urged to
follow suggestions in putting up
wool. 1t will greatly increase sale
value of the wool.
Shear the sheep when the wool is
absolutely dry, never when there is
any moisture in the fleece.
The sheep should be- shorn only on
smooth dry surface, preferably "a
plnned board flooring, never on the
dirt.
Care should be taken to keen tho
iieecd intact. Avoid second cuts.
which reduces the average length Of
the staple.
Clip all locks from each fleece and
pack separately. Never permit them
to remain in the fleece.
Flceccs should be prepared with
the flesh side out, never the weather
side.
Fold, roll, or use fleece box for
preparing the fleece.
Tie each fleece separately. Never
tic two flccccs together, nor pack
and market united wool.
Use only enough twino to tic the
fleece securely.
Paper or hard glazed surface
twinc should be used. NEVER USE
SlSAL NOR BINDER TWINE.
Never permit the fleece to come
into contact with chatf, hny, dust,
nor any other foreign material.
Place the tied flceces in regula-
tion VOL sacks or cover thom with
canvas or new burlap.
Select clean dry place for stor-
ing the wool until sold. Never per-
init the wool to lie upon the ground
nor store 1t In basement.
Keep }he white and black wool
separate. Never permit any portion
OF black wool TO be mixed through
the white.
Divide tho bury, scedy, cotted,
dead, blnck and gray neeces from
the clean, white, wcll-grown wool,
and pack separately. Never pack Mi
grades together ndiscrimminately.
All pooled wool both now md old
will be collected in our new ware
house In June and graded and then
sold. No commission charged by the
Farm Bureau. Write us for bngs Il
you intend to pool with us. Tazcwcll
