Simplicity and charm stamp the vitagraph production as one of the big
gest pictures Of the year. Its to the screen what James M. Banes story is
to literature; and seldom does the spectator find a film version of a famous
book that adheres so closely to the story a outlined by the author as does this
Vtagraph producton-nor could a cast be selected which was better suited
to the characters described in the story than that engaged for this pro
durion. I
Nothing has been left undone to give the production the atmosphere of
the simple country folk, and even the relocated soldiers are all true to life.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way To cure cartarr-
hal deafness, and that is by constitu-
ional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes
When this tube inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an infiamed
condition of the mucous surfaces
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrah Peafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medi

to build in the near future. Rev.

Pleasant Baptist church. and some
OF his members were visitors. The
meeting was a success and from
the reports OF the pastors present
OF their work and from lhe re-
port of district missionary Turner
the district as whole is in a very
good condition, in fact, we are
having peace and the Lord is bles-
sing the work as never before
Rev. ]. d. Davis, Moderator OF
the fast Mt. Olive Association
stated that the State Association
has purchased a tract OF land in
Golconda. containing 800 acres
with brick house located thereon
for $40, coo. 90 for an Old Minis
ties and Old Folks Home and it
is necessary to report 81. 500 90
to the State meeting at Centralia,
in May to meet the obligation OF
the purchasing committee it is to
be hoped that every Baptist give
one dollar for this cause. Rev
J. ID. Davis, Of Colp. is solicitor
and will receipt you for same.
AS we have not seen any min
utes Of the State meeting We are
at a loss to know what the pluns
are 1t appears that our churches
in this end OF the State and our
Association have been grossly
neglected for some cause by the
corresponding secretary. How do
you expect 10 have the churches
and pastors cooperate in the work
if they are not informed as TO the
plans of operation.
While in Harrisburg. we were

Moore and daughter Miss Daisy.
The brethren all express them
selves as being we'll cared for dur
ing their stay. Rev. John Taborn
was late arriving but made a re-
port as to his work as missionary
on the field and as he is unused to
tee hardships oil missionary life.
he seemed to look upon the dark
side OF the picture and his report
was not so favorable.
