Mr. Ira Haley, who recently em
barked in the grocery business at
Martin with that clever, christian
gentleman, Mr. Luther Carter,
last week sold his interest to Car
ter. Mr, Haley will likely move
back to Gleason. p
Renewing for his papper a few
days ago, our good friend, that
noted singing master, Prof. W. F.
Bevil, had this to say: "Dear
Joe: Enclosed you will find $1,
for the dear old Enterprise. Set
my figures up to December, 1917.
I can't do without it, for it is one
of the best pappers I ever saw.
All you have to do to get the news
is to take the Enterprise, for it is
full every week. " Thank!
i Before adjournment last week,
the grand jury made and inspec
tion of conditions at the county
farm, where they were seated to
a most tempting repast by Mr. and
Mrs. Carlton. The entire premis
es were gone over critically, and
the jury returned lavish in their
praises of conditions at the county
farm, the manner in which the
unfortunate inmates are cared for,
their food and clothing and the
close attention they receive. One
juror found conditions so inviting
there that he was loth to leave at
all, declaring he would like to
spend the winter with Mr. and
Mrs. Carlton. It will be good
news to citizens thoughout the
county to learn that the county's
unfortunates are being so well car
ed for, as they were in the past by
Mr. and Mrs. Anderson.
All the news of all the county
all the time-$l. tf.

Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Ellis left
ast Friday for Mississippi, where
they will spend the holidays with

The Enterprise deeply appreci
ates the liberal response of its
readers to the request to pay sub
scription in advance, in order that
we may hold the price down to $1
per ear as long as possibte.
Many have paid for a year in ad
vance. There are some, however,
who have been too busy or who
lave neglected this very import
ant matter. It should be attended
to at once.
There is an old saying that one
must go away from home to get

Od last Thurday at the family
residence near Como, Mrs. Wil
liam Matheney died of complicated
troubles and infirmities incident
to age. She was 80 years old.
Her husband and several married
children survive her. Rev. Webb
Jackson cnducted the funeral ser
vices and the body was interred
at New Bethel burying ground.
Renewing for his subscription
from Covington, Rev. Syl Fisher,
formerly superintendent of this
county, says: "We have been here
since Dec. 1; have fine charge, and
better people vou never saw. I
have four churches two of them
in &mall towns; a well-furnished
parsonage; in fact, we are well
fixed. The girls are attending the
Normal school at Memphis. Miss
Lizzie UnderweeoVwas elected first
assistant at Puryear." Mr. Fisher's
host of friends in Weakley will be
glad to know he is so comfortably
situated.
Henery Griffith, better known
as "Greasy" Griffith, died sudden-
y at his home near Fancy.on Thur
sday of last week and was inter
red on Friday at the Matheny bury
ing ground by the side of his wife,
who died about three months ago.
Henry was about sixty-five years
of age. He was a stauch Mason
and Odd fellow, and one of thoes
rugged, honest men who had a
legion of friends. One daughter
survives him, and to her, bereft
of parents at the age she so much
needs their counsel, the public ex
extends sympathy.

F. Lee Sheppy, 172 N. Halsted
street, Chicago, 111., general sales
manager of the largest concern of
its' kind in the world, wants three
or four men in Weakley county
and several men in adjoining coun
ties to work for him spare time
or all the time. He can use only
those who have a rig or auto.
Work is very pleasant and no
previous selling experince is nec
essary. Work consists of leaying
a wonderful new househould nec
essity in the homes on free trial.
Tests at more than thirty of the
leading universities and .the gov
ernment bureau of standards
show this new article to be four
times as efficient as article now
in general use in this section. Ar
tide is needed in every rural home
and benefits every member of
the household, bringing cheer,
comfort and happiness into the
home. Not necessary to be away
from home at nights. Pay $6 .00
to $15.00 per day, according to
ability and number of home's vis
ited. In writing Mr. Sbeppy,
mention what communities will be
most convenient for you to work
in; what your regular occupation
is; your age; married or single;
how long have you lived in the
community; what kind of a rig or
auto you have; whether you wish
to work spare time or steady; how
much time you will have to devote
to the work; when you can start,
and about how many homes are
within six miles of you in each
direction. This is a splendid op
portunity for several men in Weak
ley county and counties ajoining
to make good money, working
steady or spare time. Some o
the field men earn $300 00 per
month; one farmer earned 1,000
working spare time only.
No investment or bond neces
sary. 38-2t.
Money Crop Ready
For Delivery
The money crop in Weakley county is TOBACCO,
This crop is just now ready for delivery. It has brought the
biggest price paid for the weed in this county in a number of

ducements are offered them to buy. This is where you come
in, Mr. Merchant. You have an opportunity, through the
Enterprise, of reaching these people with all this TOBACCO
MONEY to spend, for the Enterprise 'covers the county, es

Thedford'i Black-Draught.
McDuff, Va. "I suffered for leverd
years," says Mrs. J. B. Whittakef, oi
this place, "with sick headache, tni
stomach trouble.
Ten years ago a friend told me to tri
Thedford's Black-Draught, which I did,
and 1 found it to be the best family medl
cine for young and old.
I keep Black-Draught on hand all thl
time now, and when my children feel I
tittle bad, they ask me for a dose, and il
does them more good than any medicine
they ever tried.
We never have a long spell of sick,
ness in our family, since we commenced
using Black-Draught."
Thedford's Black-Draught is purelf
vegetable, and has been found to regu
late weak stomachs, aid digestion, re
lieve indigestion, colic, wind, nausea,
headache, sick stomach, and similai
symptoms.
It has been in constant use for mora
than 70 years, and has benefited moro
than a million people.
