CAUSE OF APPENDICITIS

When the bowels are constipated, the
lower bowels or large intestines be-
come packed with refuse matter, that
is made up largely of germs. These
germs enter the vermiform appendix
and set up inflammation, which is
commonly known as appendicitis. Take
Chamberlain Tablets when needed
and keep your bowels regular and you
have little to fear from appendicitis.

On that hot August morning the sun
beat down mercilessly on the little viii
lage. The occasional passing carriage
stirred up clouds OF dust that settled
on the dried, brown and already thick
>ly coated grass and trees. Only the
whlrr OF the locust broke the heavy
silence. Not the tlnlest white cloud In
the blazing blue sky promised relief
from the lntolernble weather.
At the click OF the gate and the
sound Of a quick step on the brick
path, Miss Elizabeth Ann pushed her
spectacles up from the tip Of her nose
and waited for her visitor to appear
around the corner OF the little porch,
closed In with honeysuckle vines,
whose heavy odor made the atmos-
phere more oppressive.

the cheery voice OF young man, tall
and fair. his well-bullt figure showing

As the two lovers. arm In arm. went
down from the little porch and over
to the old grape hrbor Miss Elizabeth
Ann resumed her seat and her knit
ting behind the honeysuckle vines. For
few moments she worked quietly
and steadily; then, as the tears. which
stubbornly refused TO be kept back,

land Presbyterian Church in spe-
cial service Sunday morning at the

Church, Rev. James B. McLeskey,
pastor, recited the history of the

McLeskey explained that some of the
ministers who had part in the or
ganization were members Of the
Cumberland presbytery, of the Pres
byterian Church, U. S. A., and that
the presbytery was SO named be-
cause it was located in the country
