Dear Editor: This beaut' ful morn
ing will write you that you may know
that I am still living and our town is
on a boom. We have billed for today
a demonstration train of agricultural
exhibits from Bryan coming over the
Katy Railroad, stopping two hours in
our prosperous little city of 2500, and
it Is now 10 o'clock and our streets
are filled with prosperous farmers.
Such a crowd as we have very often.
"" Farmers "herelfl general are through
planting corn and preparing to plant
cotton. -
We have had quite a aly winter, but
spring Is opening up nicely and I think
that most people are looking forward
to a good crop year. Most people
here are out of debt ad own their own
little homes, while still we have a
greater credit system here than In
Tennessee which Is not very profitable
I returned home from Oklahoma
February 1st. Will say that I had a
pleasant time while in Oklahoma and
it was a trip to be long remembered
by me. I saw a number of Tennessee-
ans while there and I will ask H. C.
Odom to kindly drop me a few lines
personally or by way of the Herald.
I w'll say that 28 years ago today.
one mile west of Cookeville, Tennes
see, there was born to Mr. and Mrs. J.
A. Roberts a son, whose name is Isaac
Newton, whom most people in Putnam
county know. Since that time he has
grown to man-hood here and there
and somewhere else, but he has de
cided to settle down for life in some
good settlement somewhere yet un
known, but that will be known to him
should life last, In a very, shrot time,
as I am receipt of letters from the at
torneys of the defendants In my case
waning to know the least sum that
would affect a compromise. My at
torneys will soon communicate with
them and It will be known to me in a
few weeks-lf a compromise will settle
the difference between the companies
and myself. ' I. N. Roberts.
P. S. Will say that it is past my
birthdate but those who may happen
to see this may send me a card and I
will accept It with pleasure and to
show my appreciation will answer
each in return. 'Am sad to think of
the death of A. Bryant as he was a
noble 'and upright, most esteemable
old gentleman. I could look back to
a number of years gone when there
lived in and around Cookeville a num
ber of pious old gentlemen who have
passed out of this life to the great
beyond to reap and take up their re
ward. It 's sad indeed to me to think
only ten years ago the 12th of this
coming August my dear father was
called from earth to meet the great
beyond, and I feel assured that he has
gone to a home far superior to any
that th's life holds.,
It was a surprise to me to hear of
the death of C. Lewie and Mrs. Stella
Palk and baby, and a father, FInas,
has my greatest sympathy. .',
OHOOPE, GA.
We are having some real nice warm

Poor Blood
is Responsible
for much sickness and suffer
ing because its quality deter
mines our resistive power.
With poor blood we are lan
guid, susceptible to colds, lack
natural energy and ambition,
and the gradual d e c 1 i n e of
strength makes prompt and
careful treatment necessary.
Drugs or alcohol cannot make
blood and must be avoided.
. Scott's Emulsion is nature's
grandest blood-maker because
of its wholesome medical nourishment,
so carefully predigested that it assimi
lates without taxing digestion and
quickly increases the red corpuscles
of the blood, strengthens the organs
and tissues and upbuilds the whole
system.
Absolutely nothing compares with
Scott's Emulsion to purify and en
rich the blood to overcome or avoid
anaemia. It is totally free from al
cohol or opiates and your health de
mands the purity of Scott's.

Dear Editor: When I asked for a
post card shower of course I expected
to receive a few cards, but the amount
I received exceeded my xpetations. I
received 35 cards and five letters.
Many brought tears to my eyes, re
minding me of the good old times gone
by. I would give the names but that
would tax our editor's patience be
yond endurance; however I will say
many thanks to each' and every one
and I was proud of one as another.
Our big cousin and family of Lub
bock, If you will come over now you
can eat dinner with us, but if you Wait
until I am 99 I fear I shall be missing.
M. M. Howard I often go strawberry
hunting now, but I always find my
berries in tin cans with a label neatly
pasted around the can.
J. M. Judd, I did not understand the
meaning of the picture, but often
think of you all just the same. .'
We are having some cold weather
now and people that have corn up
are feeling blue, and so is the corn.
We had a nice light rain last week
and 'afrmers think they will have a
good season to bring up their maize.
Mrs. Mollie Dahuff and Mrs. Rebecca
S'mmons, will write you soon.
Minnie J. tell Mrs. McCully I have
a fond place in my memory for her,
I fear the waste basket Is drawing
near and you all know the fate of the
contents of the waste basket, so I will
close by thanking our editor for space.

8T. JOHN, KANSAS. -
Dear Editor: Will you give me lit
tle space in your, good little paper as
I have never written to the Herald
before. We came to Kansas about
two weeks ago. Like it just fine, so
far, but the wind hasn t forgotten how
to blow. Everything out here looks
encouraging. Wheat is looking fine.

MAKES BACKACHE
QHLYDISAPPEAR
K Few Doses Relieves All Such
Miseries. Bladder Weakness,
Kidney Trouble and Rheu
matism Promptly Vanish .
It Is no longer necessary for any
one to suffer with backaching, kid
ney trouble, have disagreeable blad
der and urinary disorders to contend
with, or be tortured with rheuma
tism, stiff joints, and 4 its heart
wrenching pains, for the new vliscov
ery, Croxone, quickly and surely re
lieves all such troubles.
Croxone. is the most wonderful
remedy yet devised for ridding the
system of uric acid and driving out
all the poisonous impurities which
cause such troubles. It is entirely
different from all other remedies. It
is not like anything else ever used
for the purpose. It acts on the prin
ciple of cleaning out the poisons and
removing the cause. .'
It soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and linings, like water in
a- sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood, and leaves the kid
neys and urinary organs clean,
strong, healthy and well. ,
It matters not; how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you have used, the very principle of
Croxone is such, that it is practically
impossible to take it into the human
system without results. There is
nothing else on earth like it. It
starts to work the minute you take it
and relieves you the first time you
use it , . '
If you suffer with pains in your
back and aides, or have any signs of
kidney, bladder troubles, or rheuma
tism, such as puffy swellings under
the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if
you are nervous, tired, and run down,
or bothered with urinary disorders,
Croxone will quickly relieve you of
your misery. You can secure an orig
inal package of Croxone at trifling
cost from any first-class druggist
"All druggists are authorized to per
sonally return the purchase price, if it
fails in s single case,

BELLS, TEXAS '
Dear Herald Readers : After an ab
sence of two years. I'll drop in and
chat awhile. The farmers are busy
this week planting corn. We have
been having some very cold weather
here of late.
Fred Noah, Billl Wlllett and Austin
Choat are all well, and doing well.
The election held in Grayson county
the 22d to decide whether or not in
toxicating licquor could be sold in the
county resulted in the victory of the
prohibitionists.
I received my paper Thursday. It
dont seem possible that Cookeville
has grown bo in sixteen years. Read
ing your paper brings back my memo
ry. A two room cottage with Its win
dow to the west where I used to watch
the sun set ere I laid me down to rest.
I can see the purple mountains with
their mists In early morn, and can
hear the brown thrueh singing in the
town where I have roamed. I can
recollect the mornings when I started
off to school and the old red academy
where I learned the Golden Rule. I
remember well the people, simple,
honest, kind and true. I can see a
shady pathway, where with my mother
I have strolled.
When that picture comes before me,
I feel like one forlorn, for sixteen
years ago I left Cookeville for Mis
sourl, a state well known.

MMES IN THE FACE
Blake Women Look Old
and they show the effect of unnatural sufferings of headaches, back
ache, dizziness. Lot flashes, pains in lower limbs, pains in groins,
bearing-down sensations.
These symptoms indicate that Nature needs help. Overwork, wrong dress
ing, lack of exercise, and other causes have been too much for nature and
outside aid must be called upon to restore health and strength.
