HELPLESS AS BABY
Down in Mind Unable to Work,
and What Helped Her.
Summit Point, W. Va.—Mrs. Anna
Belle Emey, of this place, says: "I suf
fered for 15 years with an awful pain fa
tny right side, caused from womanly
trouble, and doctored lots for it, but with
out success. 1 suffered so very much,
that 1 became down in mind, and as help
less as a bebv. 1 was in the worst kind
of shape. Was unable to do any work.
I began taking Cardul, the woman's
tonic, and got relief from the very first
dose. By die time I had taken 12 bot
I ties, my health was completely restored.
! 1 am now 48 years years old, out feel as
good as 1 did when only 16.
Cardul certainly saved me from losing
my mind, and I feel it my duty to speak
in its favor. 1 wish 1 had some power
over poor, suffering women, and could
: make them know the good tt would do
them.”
I If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, it will certainly bo
! worth your while to give Cardul a trial.
It has been helping weak women for
more than 50 years, and will help you,
too.
Try Cardul. Your druggist sells B.

juries.
Alice Williams, the negro wo
man who secured a judgment
for $7,500 against the Iron
Mountain for personal injuries,
but whose case was reversed by
the supreme court, has again
had her day in court. This was
the first jury trial of the term,
and was begun Monday after
noon and continued through
Tuesday.
The plaintiff in getting on a
train at Olyphant had not had
time to enter the coach and the
sudden start of the train threw
her against the end of the coach
causing injuries from which
she alleges that she still suffers.
Jones & Campbell are her at
torneys, while Troy Pace of
Harrison is serving as counsel
for the Iron Mountain.
The grand jury has been busy
investigating cases, where the
parties accused of crime are
now in jail, but had, up to Tues
day noon returned no indict
ments to the court.

Brings Home A Bride.
P. K. Holmes of the Economy
Mercantile Company, went down
to Arkansas a couple of weeks
ago and nothing more was heard
of him until Monday, when he
stepped off the train, accompan
ied by a handsome young lady,
whom he introduced as Mrs.
Holmes.
Th'e lady was Miss Kathryn
Price of Newport, Ark., at which
place the couple were married on
Tuesday, August 25.
The bride is an accomplished
young lady of estimable charac
ter, a Price-less gem to the hap
py groom. Mr. Holmes has
been living in Maysville nearly
two years, during which time he
has become firmly established as
one of our leading business men
He also made many friends, who
extend their hearty congratula
tions and best wishes for the
future happiness and prosperi
ty of himself and bride.—Mays

Side Lights On The County
Fair
With due apologies to the
publishers of the Congressional
Record and the “Appeal To Rea
son.”
Officers of the association have
received the following commu
nications.
Ant Hill, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
I beg to hand you herewith
two recipes, w'hich I have been
using with great success and
will ask if I may be permitted to
use them at the Jackson County
Fair next October- I am anx
iously awaiting your reply.
Yours truly,
D. Plorable.
Recipes inclosed were as fol
lows :
“PARROT POT PIE- ___
“Strangle a parrot and cut
out his appendix, being very
careful not to soil its feathers. •
Stuff the bird with the following
formula: Chop a peck of green !
onions with a pair of ripe sus
penders and five feet of seaweed j
then smother with a poul
tice plaster and tie it up in a
green sock. Pack the contents |
until the onions complain; then j
let remain in a bath tub over
night. If it is still there in the |
morning, sew it up with green >
silk thread and let it repose in !
the oven until the feathers are
singed; then lather the bird
with green soap and shave its
neck with a safety razor- After
shaving powder the bird with
insect powder and use the lath
er as gravy. Serve this in
buckets.”
SHORT CAKE.
J “Take a pair of overalls and
stuff with garlic and young lim
burger cheese. If the cheese
is inclined to be playful wrap it
in a porus plaster and have it
chloroformed and if it flirts
| with the garlic cut a hole in the
, top of the crust so that the gar
I lie can get its breath, but if
they get angry or boisterous sic
1 a Spanish onion on them. Now
milk a tame fish and strain the
| result through a peek-a-boo
waist. Next mix all this with a
few slices of pickled linoleum.
The cheese may be stubborn
!and not bake quickly, but it can
jbe cooked by a good German
cook. To be enjoyed thorough
ly, this dish should be inhaled.
If you partake of it do not
breathe a word to anyone.”
I
: It is useless for the officers to
state that these recipes will be
BARRED.
We have received state’s
rights to the following songs:
l “She Fell And Broke Her
Promise Long Ago.”
] “I Love Her, But Her Husband
Would’nt Work”.
! “A Cop Found William’s Hand
In Someone’s Pocket.” (Very
touching.)
) “Gladys Says She Will Be
Switched Before She Will Wear
A Rat.”
! “Mother Left Father Because
He Would Eat Crackers In The
Bed.”
Found on the side of the roll
track—a dog; not all one kind,
'seems to be fond of eating.
Sleeps considerably. Anyone
can have him; call or phone,
j This was received in our mail
by mistake.
Doctor Hiram Quark of Illi
nois, submits the formula be
llow in answer to a young lady’s
i inquiry as to the cause of ec
zema and cure of it: “Eczema
is frequently caused by eating
soap with a knife, but sometimes
wearing your shoes in bed or in
! haling a motorman’s breath
i will bring it about. Never let
'your liver get torpedo. A good
remedy for eczema is made by
taking four ounces of dynamite,
an elephant’s lung and mixing
together writh one pint of indel
lible ink. Stir with a whisk
broom.' When dissolved let it
soak through a horse blanket
and apply to the afflicted parts
jwith sand paper. If your hands
I are covered with the disease
soak them in dish water after
each meal. Letter has been
forwarded.
j Needless to say this con
j glomeration of nonsense is mere
ly placed here as a means of
attracting atention to the
Jackson County Fair to be held
in Newport October 14th to
17th, inclusive. It’s a big enter
prise and the officers are sure
that the people of the county
will all contribute what they can
towards its success- Come.
