by this twicetold testimony.
J. L. Bray, machinist, 504 Edgefield
St., Water Valley, says: “My back
was in a bad condition and my kid
neys were so disordered I had to get
up often at night to pass the kidney
secretions which were colored. I had
blinding, dizzy spells and could see
spots in front tf my eyes. Doan’s
Kidney Pills were recommended by a
friend and I used them. Relief was
at once noticeable. I have relied up
on Doan’s every since. I am pleased
to recommend Doan’s.” (Statement
given June 13, 1918.)

Mary Alice Frost who was struck by
an automobile truck driven by Ernest
E. Penn last Monday evening, died
this morning at 2 o’clock in a hospital
at Oxford, where she was taken yes

was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G.
E. Frost. In the short time of her

street from the ^ark in the public
square to the northeast corner of the
square. Mr. Penn was driving north
and another car was approaching from

NOTED STAGE SUCCESS •
FILMED BY FRED N1BLO
A famous stage play, Walter
Hackett’s “Captain Applejack,”
filmed under the title of “Strangers
of the Night,” is coming to the
Grand Theatre on Thursday. It has
been produced by Fred Niblo, who
directed “The Three Musketeers,”
“Blood and Sand” and “The Famous
Mr3. Fair," and in presented by Louis
B. Mayer through Metro. 0
Niblo was given free reign to
build magnificent settings and the
cast is made up exclusively of players
entitled to be classed as stars. Matt
Moore, Enid Bennett, Barbara La
Marr and Robert McKim have the
four principal roles while such fa
vorite* as Emily Fitzroy, Otto lloff
man, Mathilde Brundage and
Thomas Ricketts share honors in the
secondary group of popular players.
Ths story concerns a timid Brit
isher into whose life comes pirate
romance on the crest of a storm.
Bess Meredyth adapted the story' to
the screen and it was photographed
by Alvin Wyckoff.
HOW BETTER THAN PILLS?
The question has been asked-In
what way are Chamberlain’s Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic and
liver pills? Our answer is, they are
easier and more pleasant to take and
their effect is so gentle that one hard
ly realizes that it is produced by a
medicine. Then, they not only move
the bowels but improve the appetite
and strengthen the digestion.

LADY WAS IN A BAD FIX
FROM NERVOUS INDIGESTION
Biloxi, Miss.—“I had, for • year or
more, nervous indigestion, or some form
of stomach trouble," says Mrs. Alonzo
Ford, 1117 Clay Street, this city. “The
water I drank at that time seemed to
constipate me. I would sutler until 1 got
so nervous 1 wanted to get down on the
Door and rciL l felt like 1 could tear
my clothes
“Every night, and night after night, I
had to take something for a laxative, and
it had to be kept up nightly. My side
would pain. I looked awful. My skin
was sallow and seemed spotted. I would
look at my hands and arms, and the flesh
looked lifeless.
“I happened to get a Birthday Almanac,
so 1 told rhy husband 1 would try the
Black-Draught, which 1 did. I took a
few big doses. 1 felt much better. My
Uver acted well. I made a good, warm
teaand drank it that way. Soon I found
that nervous, tight feeling was going, as
was the pam in my side. I found I did not
have to take it every night. Soon, after
a few wt-eks, I could leave it off for a
week or so, and 1 did not suffer with
constipation... I gained flesh. I have a
good color, and believe it was a stubborn
liver, and that Btack-Draught did the
work.
"1 went to my mother's (Mr*. Deetara)
one day, and she wasn’t well at alt .. I
told her we’d try Black-Draught We
did, and now she keeps it to take after
eating. It certainly helped her, and we
neither will be without it in our homes,
it U90 simple, and the dose can be
regulated as the case may be. Wa use
•mall doses after meals for indigestion,
and larger doses for headache or bad
liver.”

eloping from Torrance, Miss., where
she lived at that time. Her family
now livys in Wabaseka, Ark.
Long thinks he is about 35 years
old. He is five feet five inches tall
and weighs about 125 pounds.
Mrs. Long contradicts her husband
in several particulars. She says that
quarrels were frequent and she
guesses she must love him because
they have lived together for a long
time. She and the children were at
home this afternoon in a tumble
down shack at the edge of town.
When dressed up she would probably
be an attractive young woman. Her
statement is that long had threatened
to kill her several times at the point
of the Winchester and made her telT
the story which implicated young
Semmes. Mrs. Long denies having
been out with anyone except “D, 0.”,
about nine weeks ago.
Dr. T. J. Brown, who was a shirt
distance from the scene of the shoot
ing, ran up at once. He examined the
bfcdy and followed the course of the
bulle(, which entered just above the
heart, served the aorta and ranged
through both lungs and lodging
against the ribs on the right side
toward the rear.
“The boy had his left har^l on the
steering wheel when I reached him,”
said Dr. Brown. “He gasped once or
twice as I bent over him, but died al
most as soon as struck.”
Although Long says he saw “D. 0.”
for the first time just before he shot
him and claims that was the first
he knew of the boy’s presence in town.
Mrs. Long said further that her hus
band had left the house about noon,
taking his gun with him and saying:
“You all do the best you can, I may
never get back.” Just before the
shooting Long purchased six car
tridges from the Doak Hardware
Company, located a few yards from
where the tradegy occurred.
Zack Semmes was in front of the
hardware store, going to his father’s
drug store. “I noticed Long creep
ing up on the car with his gun ready
and it looked like (something w^s
wrong. I started running to atop
possible trouble. Just before I got
there Long fired. . The car was fac
ing west on First Street. “D. 0.”
sitting at the wheel. Long crept up
from 'behind and shot from right
alongside.”
“D. 0.” left Grenada last Sept.
11 for Baylor. He had returned here
Monday and expected to go back to
school this afternoon. He was held
in universal esteem by the entire town
and his sudden death has virtually
spread a blanket of sorrow over the
community.
KEATON’S “THREE AGES”
ON MONUMENTAL SCALE
More than two hundred people
particpate in the big scenes in Bus*

edy, “Three Ages,” which is coming

Tuesday. This comedy was recently
presented in London before members
of the royal family and English
newspapers pronounced Jt as a bril
liant achievement.
One of the huge sets is an exact
duplication of the famous Colosseum
in Rome. This was one of the big
gest items of production, but it was
reproduced with fidelity to drawings
of the original.
Miss Margaret Leathy, the English
girl who was recently acclaimed as
England’s most beautiful girl in a
competition with 80,0000 other girls,
and Wallace Beery are in the cast.
