No. 20
The night riders who seem to
be trying to control the cotton
situation by the commission of
lawless deeds are following a
cold trail.
The farmer is teaching himself
a valuable lesson by selling bis
cotton on an early market.
When he sees- he has lost $10
to $15 per bale he will be likely
to remember the lesson.
If the farmers who belong to
the Union want help outside of
the Order they must themselves
stand together.

members are standing together
in holding their eytton they are
commanding the respect of the
business community. Where
they are not, they are beiug
laughed at
cecessity for it. When cotton
goes to twelve cents, which it
will, it will open the eyes of the
fellows who "dump" their cot-
ton on an early market.—

will be an essential necessity.
Education along the right lines
will be much more effective than
night riding. Any kind of law-
lessness will hurt the cause for
which the Farmers' Union is
fighting. Besides there is no

HON. THEODORE E. BURTON*
Hon. Theodore E. Burton is

ker. He has also been mention-

Some remarkable stories are
being told about town and among
the country people coming in of
this simple home-made mixture
curing Rheumatism and Kidney
trouble. Here is the recipe and
directions for taking: Mix by
shaking well in a bottle oue-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion,
once Compound Syrup Saraap-
arilla. Take as a dose one tea-
spoonfull after meals and at bed
time. No change need be made
in your usual diet, but drink
plenty.
This mixture has a peculiar
tonic effect upon the kidneys;
cleansing the clogged-up pores
of the eliminative tissues, forc-
ing the kidneys to sift an$ strain
from the blood, the uric.acid and
and, other poisonous waste mat-
ter, overcoming Rheumatism,
Bladder and Urinary troubles in
a short while.
A druggist here who has had
hundreds of calls for these in-
gredients since the first an-
nouncement in the newspapers
last October stated that the peo
pte who once try it "swear by
«it" especially those who have
Urinary and Kidney trouble and
suffer with Rheumatism. ,
All the druggists in this
neighborhood say they can sup-
ply the ingredients, which sre
easily mixed at home. There
is said to be no better blood -
cleansing agent of the system
tonic known, and certainly none
more harmless or simple to use.

OPPORTUNITY
By WALTER MALONE
In Sunset Magazine
They do me wrong who say I come no more
When once I knock and fail to find you in;
For every day I stand outside your door,
And bid you wake, and rise to fight and win.
Wail not for precious chances passed away,
Weep not for golden ages on the wane;
Each night I burn the records of the day;
At sunrise &yery soul is born again.
Laugh like a boy at splendors that have sped,
To vanished joys be blind and deaf and dumb;
My judgments seal the dead past with its dead,
Bat never blind a moment yet to come.
Tho' deep in mire, wring not your hands and weep;
I lend my arm to all who say "I can!"
No shamefaced outcast ever sank so deep
But yet might rise and be again a man.
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous retribution's blow?
Then turn from blotted archives of the past
And find the future's pages white as snow.
Art thou a mourner? Rouse thee from thy spell;
Art thou a sinner? Sins may be forgiven;
Each' morning gives thee wings to flee from hell,
Each night a start to guide thy feet to heaven.
Mr. and Mrs. C A Smith of
Mena, Ark., visited Judge and
Mrs. A C Smith this week.
