Is Champion House Gleaner
"Your medicine is certainly the
greatest cleaner I ever saw. I never
thought such stuff could be in a hu
man being. I am feeling ten years
younger since taking the course of
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy, and am
telling everybody it is the champion
house cleaner. My bloating in Btom
ach and pains are all gono and I can
eat anything." It is a simple,
harmless preparation that removes
the catarrhal mucus from the intes
tinal tract and allays the inflamma
tion which causes practically all
stomach, liver and intestinal ail
ments, including appendicitis. One
dose will convince or money re
funded. Sold by Oliver's Red Cross

Lions Open the New Year.
The meeting of the Lions last '
Tuesday with a fine attendance is
evidence of the fact that the organi
zation is still functioning. Two or
three pr. -positions were discussed.
Mr., Rust presented the fact ; that
farmers are entitled to loans thru
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
on livestock as security. Mr. Kerr
suggested that the plan involved cov
ering the loan 7ith collateral of two
and a half to one, and that it failed
to appeal to our farmers. '
Proposition came from Wickliffe
to co-operate in extending the Union
City-Meridian (the Dinkie) train run
to Cairo, thereby giving us an outlet
and I. C. connections. Referred to
transportation committee.
Dr. Long suggested a report to the'
effect that the I. C. R. R. Co. had
bought the N., C. & St. L. Ry. line
from Martin o Hickman.
