CONSTIPATION
Is the cause of much misery and expense. It
clogs the vital organs with impurities and brings
on a general break-down of health.
PRICKLY ASH BITTERS
Is a bowel regulator of the greatest merit. It
relieves the bowels mildly yet thoroughly and
extends its cleansing and strengthening influence
to every part of the body.

Trip up to Monday.
Nashville, Term , Aug. 14, 1911.
Forrest City Times:|
Thinking perhaps the people at
home would like to hear from us
through the columns of the Old Re
liable. will say that we reached Mem
phis Wednesday night, the 9th a„u
remained over until Friday following,
when we left for Jackson, Tennessee,
arriving there at 6 p.m., and spending
the night. The writer having a num
ber of relatives living there, spent the
evening very pleasantly. Left Jackson
Saturday morning at 9:30*, reached
Lexington, Tennessee, for dinner. As
the steering arm of our machine was
bent and crooked we remained over
for the nigiit to have it repaired. We
found Lexington an up-to-date little
town with handsome springs and a
good hotel. To pass away a part of
tlie time, Col. Yaccaro pulled otf a
badger light at a large livery stable.
A noted dog named ‘Hard Times.”
was pitted against the badger It is
useless to say that it was a success.
Left Lexington Sunday morning
and crossed the Tennessee river at
Clifton. Here Co). Chas. Lewis fell
In with two old friends of Dr. Mc
Dougal's, Messrs. W. S. Howard and
Jim Macklin. The people of the
place gave us a warm reception and
nothing was too good for us. Macklin
rode six miles with us, to his farm,
and insisted on our staying to dinner,
hut as we had phoned to Wainsboro
to have dinner prepared for us,we had
to decline. We reached Columbia at
<> p.m.. and remained over night, ar
riving here in time for dinner today,
and will leave in the morning, (Tues
day) for Louisville.
Capt Hecker has proven himself a
great motorist, having traveled about
one liunred miles a day over some
very rough roads, without an acci
dent worth mentioning.
We have found all the people along
the route enthusiastic road boosters,
and they tell us that If we come again
next year they will show us better
roads. Madison county roads can not
be improved upon, nor can those
through Davidson, Williams and
Maury counties. We ran into some
very rough roads near the Tennessee
river. The crops all along are line,the
corn especially so in Middle Ten
nessee.
In Mason, Tennesee, where we
stopped for gasoline, we met a num
ber of Frank l’ettus' and N. 11. Nel
son's friends. Here someone bail
beard that Col. Yaccaro was the
champion watermelon eater of For
rest City, and the town being full of
them, they wanted to load our ma
chine down with them. One man in
sisted that we take one to Frank
Fettus.
We are all well and having a good
time. More later.

Accused of Stealing.
E. E. Chamberlain, of Clinton, Me.,
boldly accuses Bucklens Arnica Salve
of stealing—the sting from burns or
scalds the pain from sores of all kind
—the distress from boils or piles. “It

Injuries of their terror,’’he says, ‘'as a

Card of Thanks.
We wish to extend our heartfelt
and sincere thanks to all of those who
so kindly assisted us in any form or
manner during the illness and after
the death of our beloved Louis B.
Jones, who died at Ids home here on
Saturday morning. Words cannot ex
press the deep sense of gratitude we
feel toward those here in Madison, in
Forrest City, and in fact throughout
the entire section where he was
known, who proved themselves, in
deed friends in time of need.
Sincerely,
Mrs. L. B. Joues
W. T. Jones.
Mr and Mrs. E. Butler.

Wheatley Halid* K«ad«.
As the sun came up Tuesday morn
ing the scone along the road just west
of the depot was animated with human
beings and teams ready for tiie word
to proceed
When the word was spoken it was
a rusii and scramble, dirt began to fly
and tiie scrapers were piling tiie iO"se
material in the center of a roadway
| prepared by engineer Kdwards. The
. men of W heatley had agreed
to ciuse their j aces of business and all
“join hands" in getting a gond road
from tiie North Arkansas crossing to
tiie bridge on Flat Fork As we go
to press the work has resulted in a
good foundation being laid for the
crowning work which will come Wed
nesday.
Tiie farmers are to be praised for
the way in which many of them came
with their teams, and lent a helping
hand for the work. Too much praise
cannot be bestowed upon the managers
of the Wheatley Mercantile Co., and
Goldberg Mercantile Co. for tiie part
they took in the actual work done
there.
They know what It takes to build
roads, and they were there with their
presence to aid and assist in tiie work.
They took hold of the plow and scraper
doing service like as if they were old
hands at the business.
Bankers Smith and Bratcher were
loyal to the enterprise, giving much
valuable time and work.
If you were absent from this jolly
crowd of workers you missed some
thing which you will regret all yours
days. There was much pleasure con
nected with tiie little bit of hard
work. Tiie writer of this article
would lie pleased to call each and
every man's name who was there, but
time and space forbids. Anyway all
were loyal.—Wheatley Courier.

| She Could Shout, Says
Mrs. John W. Pitchford ol Aspen.
North Carolina.
1 will always use Hunt's Cure for
itching trouble, and tell all 1 see
aliout it. I could shout now to know
that we are all well of that dreadful
trouble. The hrst of last fall my boy
broke out with some kind of itching
trouble. 1 hinking his blood was bad
I gave him a blood tunic, but lie got
worse, and could not sleep at night.
Some said he had itch, and told me
what was good fur it. I used what
people said would cure it. but nothing
did any good. My other two children
and myself took the disease from him
in January, lftll. 1 saw Hunt’s Cure
ad\ertised and I purchased a-Vic box
it helped my little boy so mucii'l got
a box fur each of the family, and now
we are all wet of that awful trouble
Hunts cun- will cure itch in a short
time if you will go by directions. We
I had it in its worse form, and used
s Hunt's Cure, and we are now all well.
