effort to appear before an audience
and succeeding. The play was very
well acted. Neal Bowman has beer
a visitor with the home folks for
few days. Delma Archer is still
on his vacation. .J. l.. Kennard's
mother came last Friday to help
them while Mrs. j. L. Kennard re-
mains SO poorly. Arthur Evans is
out on crutches, after being injur-
ed by an auto a few weeks ago.
Samuel Pierpoint of near Newark
was here Tuesday night having been
called on account of the death of his

At noon feast of good things, fit
for king, was very nicely served at
the parsonage. In the afternoon
splendid program, profitable as well
as entertaining, was given at the
church. The piano selections and
readings were all of the very high
est class. Rev. Mr.. Harvey of Chi
cago, guest at the home of Rev.
Jeffers, gave a splendid talk that
was very much appreciated by ev-
eryone. Short talks by the pastor
in charge completed the program.
Recently the Rev. Born has been
living on a reducing diet, so was un-
able to do justice to the occasion,
as has been the custom of His High
ness formerly, so attempted to car
ry off all the glory and honor of the
day by presuming that the whole
affair had been planned and center
ed around the fact that the day hap
pened to be HIS birthday. Prepos-
terous idea to be sure. The ties of
friendship, are always the ties that
bind, and the Chesterhill folk re-
turned home feeling that those ties
between them and those of our
village had been
nightly strengthened, and only the
best will be good enough to give
when next year it will be their turn
and their opportunity to return the
com pliment to Stockport.

BAD BREATH
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get
at the Cause and Remove It

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated
tablets are taken for bad breath by all
who know them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act gen.
tly but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any of
the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping cathartics are derived from
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-
tice among patients afflicted with bowel
and liver complaint, with the attendant
bad breath.
Olive Tablets are purely vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil; you
will know them by their olive color.
Take one or two every night for week
and note the effect. l5c and 3Oc.

CHESTERHILL

The farmers institute is a thing
Of the past for this year, not very
well attended in the day time, too
nice weather for the farmers to lose.
At night had fairly good crowd.
AS it was an independent institute
a fee of 10c was charged at the
door each session, which amounted
to something over $57. The speak
ers, Mr.. Zinn and Miss Dorsey both
of West Virginia, gave fine talks
each session. Two good papers by
Walter Worthington and Chester
Newburn. The readings by the
school showed lack of preparation,
but we can look over that as the
children had so little time in which
to prepare them. Can only feel like
praising each one for making the

HERE, MR.. THIEF,
is A CHANCE TO
DO RIGHT THING

This story is being printed in the
hope that the person who took John
Coffey s silver watch and nine dol
lars on New Years night will see
it and return the property to its
rightful owner.

has u room under the church edi.
flee. He's had his ups and downs
in recent years, and came to El
Centre recently, penniless, after
espending all his money trying to
get cured of asthma. The balmy
climate of the valley has helped him
to such an extent that he is able
to take light jobs of gardening and
mt least pay for his meals. His aim is
to save enough money to buy a
lawn mower and n few garden tools
so that he can set himself up in .
little gardening business. BY dint
of much economy and hard manual
labor he had saved nine dollars
all the money he had in the world,
The sterling silver watch was
given him for Christmas present
BY Father Truxaw so that John
would know when to ring the church
bells for services, and John was very
happy in its possession.
Monday night he left the watch
and money on Il table in his room
while he closed the church doors
lie was only gone about three min
utes, but when he ameuback the
theft had occurred.
John needs this mOney-desperate-
", and the watch, too, There is ne
victim the thief could have selected
who could so greatly have suffered
from the theft.
Maybe the one who took it has :"
soft spot in his heart somewhere

return the articles when he finds
out the true facts of the ease.
