Kd. Advance:
NN ill write a few linen in relation
to conditions here. Crop-* are bad*
ly damaged by the rev« nt beat v
rains and land in badly washed ai.d
damaged by the continued rains
1 he noil has about disappeared oil
some hillsides. PI in shout I be a
good r» a*on why land valu« n should
be lowered for taxation. You see
these conditions are decidedly
against the hills de farmer; he can’t
realize but a small return for Inn
1 »bor at best.
About the county high school.
" ell, it might be a good investment
for some parts of the c unty. My
timt impression wan to write ngi'in-i
it. I’ve beard it said that your
Pnst ideas are best on business mat
ters, so 1 guess I will not change.
Now, you see the way the land i*
drifting down toward the Gulf ol
Mexico, it makes it extremely diffi
cult to pay even a small raise of the
levy. Our farmers know this to be
the cane, especi illy when the mon*
ey has to be obtained by tillage ol
me soil.
And now 1 will write a line or two
about the war. 1 am heartily in ao
eord with Mr. Bryan’s views con
cerning the great conflict aftd the
earnest desire of the American peo
ple to keep out of this great Iron,
ble. We should not engage in it
under ary n asonable ciroutnslanoes,
and we should not take issue with
ary of those troubled nations. We
can be charitable to those in need
and help them to some extent; hut
we should not export munitions of
war to any of the nations now at
war nor permit any vessel fixing the
U. flag to do so. It is against
the laws of neutrality to suffer it to
he done. In reading the papers I
noticed that one firm in America
had refused to make ammunition to
be shipped abroad. This is right.
Don’t make anything to destroy
vour fillowman, unless it is ex
tremely necessary; it’s against the
laws of God and man and should not
be done. VVe should take the views
of our ancient blacksmith that re
pented for making instruments of
warfare, which is described by the
poet. He says:
‘‘But a sudden change came over 1
his heart ere the selling of the sun,
and Tuhal ('am was Hiled with piin
for the evil he had done. He saw
that men with rige and hate made
war upon their kind ; that the hand
was red with the blood they shed in
their lu-t for the carnage blind.
Ami be said, ‘Ala*! that 1 ever made
or that skill of mine should plan the
► pear and sword lor men just thus
to use to rday their fellow-man.’”
J. D. Ratten.
He should die young who says he
has neither erred, strayed or been
deceived.

HUSBAND RESCUED
DESPAIRING WIFE
Alter Four Tears of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue,
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: **1 suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, I could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, 1 would have severe pains
In my left side.
The doctor was called In, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle o!
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.'*
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, In its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
mend it Begin taking Cardui today.
