QUARTER CENTURY
OF CHURCH WORK.
Then Congregation Decides to
Disband and Turn Work Over
to Methodists.
Texarkana, Feb. 21. — The
Thompson Memorial Northern
Methodist church, after an exist
ence of just twenty-five years in
this city, has voted to disband,
and today announcement was
made that the congregation had
rented the house of worship to
the Arkansas Presbyterians and
would hold no more services un
der its roof.
* Jt is understood that most of
the members of the congregation
will join the Presbyterian church
/And the Sunday school will go
over entirely to that church.
The reason given for disbanding
is that the Southern church is do
ing the work of Methodism suf
ficienty for the needs of the sec
tion.

THE COMINgPoF MACBETH.
Lovers of the highest ideals
in dramatic art are continually
finding fault with the too fre
quent appearance not only here
but in all the cities of silly far
cical plays, cheap sensationalism
and the other immaterial feat
ures of current theatrical pro
ductions and are always clamor
ing for the works of Shakespeare
and the other great masters of
literature.
It is a pleasure to announce in
this connection the early appear
ance here of the eminent trage
dian John Griffith and his splen
did company of the legiti
mate artists in Shakespeare’s
immortal tragedy,” Macbeth,”
with brilliant fire-proofed scenic
equipment, electrical effects,
chemical illusions and all the de
tails needful to insure an abso
lutely perfect performance of
this the greatest of the great
master’s plays. Everywhere
that Mr. Griffith has appeared
the local press has teemed with
praise of his magnificent per
formance, and it will be a real
pleasure to welcome him to this
city. The engagement is an
nounced for Saturday evening,
Feb. 25, and promises to be the
one great bjg event of the sea
son. I j

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto
ries in the Kansas City Star.
Conan Doyle’s detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher
! lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
fact, the publisher of Collier’s
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
about 60 cents a word. The en
tire correspondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid for such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday,
February 15.
None of the present popular
features of the Star will be cut
down or omitted to make room
for this remarkable set of stories.
Practically the contents of a $1.50
book will be added to the con
tents of the Star in three months
without any increase of the sub
scription price, 10 cents a week
for the daily Star, (morning,
evening and Sunday, 13 complete
papers a week) and 25 cents a
year for the weekly Star.

How to
Get Well.
Every organ of the body is
I directly connected with the
brain by nerves. The nerve
cells in the brain generate
nerve force—power—and send
it to the organ through these
nerves, and thi^ nerve-force
gives life and action. The or
gans work perfectly when there
is sufficient nerve power. Lack
of nerve force weakens the ac- I
tion of an organ and it works
imperfectly—becomes sick.
Two-thirds of all sickness is
thus due to weak or deranged
nerves; it is therefore advisa
ble to take Dr. Miles’ Restor
ative Nervine, because it makes
nerve energy.
When you cure the nerves
you remove the cause, and
that’s the way to get well.
“Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine
cured me of nervous prostration after
every other effort had failed to give
me relief. My trouble seemed to
begin with a general loss of strength
and a breaking down of the nervous
system. I suffered from headache,
constipation and fluttering or palpita
tion of the heart. My appetite failed
and I was so nervous and restless that
I could not sleep at night. My hus
band. who is a druggist, brought me
a bottle of Nervine. It helped me
from the start, and I continued using
it until I had taken six bottles. My
health was completely restored.

Dr. Miles’ Nervine Is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first Dottle will benefit. If It falls, ha
will refund your money.
