Connstipation and Indigestion.
“I have used Chamberlain’s Tablets
and must say they are the best I have
ever used for constipation and indiges
tion. My wife also used them for in
digestion and they did her good,”
writes Eugene S. Knight, Wilmington,
N. C. Obtainable everywhere. 30-4
Hal Johnson in Miss Modiste.
Hal Johnson, a far famed actor, has
I
written a mirth-provoking farce in I
Miss “Modiste”, full of brisk action I
and tuneful music, which makes it a
veritable scream from start to finish.
This is not a “one man” show and
consequently Mr. Johnson has sur
rounded himself with such talented
people as George Murdock, Gene Har
per George Colins, Lillian Forrest,
Eva Swinburne, Agnes Falle and Laura
Mj^rtere. Inasmuch as there have
been many imitators of Mr. John
son, who were no doubt encouraged
by his phenominal success in the “Ar
rival of Kitty” we wish to state em
phatically that Hal Johnson (himself)
will positively appear at tne K. C.
Opera House on January 17th, when
the above attraction plays here.
Secure your seats early as Mr. John
sons past record is a future guar
rantee.—Adv.

The Gist of It.
“Last December I had a very severe
cold and was nearly down sick in bed.
I bought two bottles of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy and it was only a very
few days until I was compeletly re
stored to health,” writes O. J. Met
calf, Weatherby, Mo. If you would
know the value of this remedy, ask
any one who has used it. Obtainable
everywhere. 30-4
Gleanings.
What’s the matter with this kind
of weather for January? All right,
Eh?
L. A. and C. T. Simonson were
down on the Eagle fishing last Fri
day. F. A. Hatch stayed at C. T.’s
and looked after the chores while he
was gone.
On Tuesday, January 4th, a large
company of ladies of this vicinity
and O’Neill, swooped down on Mrs.
Emily Hatch and gave her the sur
prise of her life. Before they had
been there long a long table had been
set out and piled mountain high with
good things to eat, until ye scribe 1
thought the table would litertlly break
down with the weight thereof. After
partaking of the feast, ye scribe felt
as though he could get along for a
week without any more nourishment
for the inner man. The ladies pres
ent were: Mrs. James Brennan, Mrs.
M. A. Whaley, Mrs. C. R. Young,
Mrs. H. B. Hubbard, Miss Fern Hub
bard, Mrs. C. . JSimonson, Mrs. Tom
Simonson, Mrs. Irving Simonson and
Mrs. W. S. Roberts. Every lady
lady seemed to enjoy themselves, in
cluding ye scribe, who is not used to
attending an exclusive ladies party.
Tuesday, January 12, 1916, is the
twenty-eight anniversary of the worst
blizzard that ye scribe ever saw, and
he has good cause to remember it, as
he was going to school at that time
and was obliged, with thirteen other
scholars and teacher, to remain in the
school house all that day and night,
but fortunately we had coal enough
to burn to keep us comfortable
throughout that long night, although
we had no supper or sleep. A brave
man working for a near family there
tried to bring supper to the school
that night, but got lost and wand- (
ered a mile in the opposite direction
before he found a house where he had
to stay until morning. I hope never
to see such a storm again.
There is much being said in the
daily press nowdays about citizens
of foreign birth or ailens, who it is
charged by persons high in the coun
;ils of the nation, of disloyality to
this government on account of certain
bomb outrages in munition plants, and
ships loaded with that kind of a cargo,
that would naturally be classed as con.
traband of war, in times like these,
and also on account of this criticism
of the present administration for its I
unnatural attitude towards the war
ring countries. The charge imputed
to them of seeking to blow up muni- <
tion plants and ships carrying contra
brand of war, may be true, but that
is not prima facie evidence of dis
loyality to this government, and since
they have not sought to do injury to J
any government property or officials,
we must conclude that it was only
men of criminal instincts, who have
only sought to injure the capitalis
tic class. As for their criticism of
this governments unnatural policy,
people of this country, whether citi
zens or ailens, have a right to criti
cise the head men when their acts do
not accord with what they believe to .
be right, and let me say right here I
that this government is any-thing but
neutral in its attitude towards those
countries at war, and the people gen
erally know it. (
