The Lodge Of Sorrow,
f That this is the age of hurry,
bustle and business-eternal, no
one is prepared to dispute. We
live in a speed-mad world,where
the Hours rush by on wings and
where business men begrudge
the hurried minutes that they
give their daily meals. It is the
age of commercialism, in which
humanity of the truer kind is
supposed to have no part. Senti
ment is hidden under a cloak,
and the heart of the successful
man of the world is supposed to
be as adamant.
It is with gratification, there
fore, that we note the near ap
proach of an event which is
fraught with the highest and
best that there is in mankind.
This is the meeting of the
“Lodge of Sorrow,"which is to be
on Sunday held by the Benevo
lent and Protective Order of
Elks.
At this time the members of
this worthy organization gather
and pay loving tribute to the
memory of their beloved dead.
They are not ostentatious in
• their memorial offering, but
they are filled with deep sincer
~ity.
Surely there could be nothing
more calculated to renew our
faith in humanity than the spec
tacle of these men of the world,5
most of whom are hardly sup-:
posed to give their private af-;
fairs more than a momentary
consideration, assembled to pay
their last tribute to their broth
ers who have gone before into
the great beyond.
When one attends this “Lodge
of Sorrow” it is to come forth
with renewed confidence in the
humanity, the brotherhood of
man.
We honor the Elks for this
ire Automobile OwneraL^

man and am in shape to take

Little Rock, Dec. 2.—A party
of politicians from various parts
of the state were discussing
presidential possibilities the oth
er evening in the_lobby of the
Hotel Marion. Three of the
party were for Harmon and two
for Wilson. The Harmon men,
much gratified by the indication,
offered to wager that all in the
lobby at the time would show a
majority for Harmon. A careful
poll was taken of those in lobby
with the following result: Wil
son, 19, Harmon 8, Clark 2.

SAID SHE
WOULD FAINT
Mrs. Della Long Unable to Stand
On Her Feet More Than a Few
Minutes at a Time.
Pendergrass, Ga.—Mrs. Della Long,
of this place, in a recent letter, says:
“For five or six years, I suffered agon
ies with womanly troubles.
Often, I couldn’t sit up more than a
few minutes at a time, and if I stood
on my feet long, I would faint.
I took Cardui, and it helped me im
mediately. Now, I can do my work all
the time, and don’t suffer like I did.”
Take Cardui when you feel ill in any
way—weak, tired, miserable, or under
the weather. Cardui is a strength
building tonic medicine for women.
It has been found to relieve pain and
distress caused by womanly troubles,
and is an excellent medicine to have on
hand at all times.
Cardui acts on the womanly consti
tution, building up womanly strength,
toning up the nerves, and regulating
the womanly organs.
Its half century of success is due to
merit. It has done good to thousands.
Will you try it? It may be just what
you need. Ask your druggist about
Cardui. He will recommend It.

THE NEALE INSTITUTE
In Three Days You Will Be Perfectly Relieved Of The Drink
Habit and All Those Symptoms Which Seem to Require
Liquor As “Medicine” Will Disappear.
NO MAN can afford to drink
£quor — particularly a business
or professional man, whose suc
cess and possibilities of achieve
ment depend upon a strong
brain—a brain that is always
clear and ready for business. A'
whiskey brain sometimes “feels”
dear and btight and capable—
but it isn’t; it is all wrong.
The “feebng” of alertness and
ambition tF short-lived STIMU
LATION of an organ that is
weakened and paralyzed by the
most insidious of all poisons—
the POISON OF ALCOHOL.
Under the guidance of the liquor
drinker the best business in the
world will fail—executive abil
ity, stamina and logic are lack
ing.
Why does a drink of liquor
seem to quiet the nerves?
Why do your nerves need
“quieting?”
Your system has been accum
ulating ale holic poison during
your years of drinking. All these
years you have been punishing
your nerves with the worst pos
sible kind of punishment you
could inflict; they have come to
demand alcohol and will not be
subdued without it and you
by
additional doses of poison.
There will come a day when the
vital organs of your body will
no longer respond to alcohol,and
it will be well for you to antici
pate that time by coming to th*
Neal Institute NOW.
The Neal treatment cures the
drink habit and does away
with the evils resulting from al
coholic poisoning in THREE
DAYS. A longer time would bf
superfluous. It drives everj
trace of alcoholic poison from
the system, thus doing away
with the CAUSE of continued
drinking, the cause of drunken
ness, the cause of craving, de
sire and physical demand for li
quor. All these symptoms are
but the EFFECTS of the accu
mulated poison—the CAUSE i'
stored in alcoholic poison.
There are no hyperdermic in
jections, no disagreeable feat
ures, no SUBSTITUTE STIMU
LANTS, no poison of any kinc
—a child could take the NEAL
treatment with perfect safety.
