THURSDAY, JAN. 30, 1902.
If a wrong exists, right it.
One should never oppose ex-
cept from the standpoint of reas-
on.
Honesty and capability should
be the rule in selecting public ser-
vants.
The nearest way to the heart of
friendship is by the road of gen-
tleness.
The year 1901 had ite victories
for McKinney, but 1902 promises
greater things.
The rain fall Thursday morning
was very light, followed by a heavy
frost last night.
A mar? who shuts his eyes when
he i9 "hitting hard" is liable to
hit the wrong object.
Opposition to a candidate for
office based on prejudice and ig-
norance is not commendable.
The St. Louis Republic calls
the Globe Democrat a liar. It is
ugly for children to talk this way.
Don't complain at the absence
of sunshine while vou continue to
throw shadows in the pathway of
others.
Make the home the abiding
place of virtue in this community
anil its influence will reach out
and bless all.
W. W~ and Gee. Crosson, two
prominent farmers who live near
Princeton were in town Friday.
They informed a reporter
that the Baptist church building
which was erected a few year9 ago
near Loeg Neck school house is
to be moved right away to Prince-
ton, a distance of three-quarters
of a mile.
DEATH'S DOINGS.
W. W. Thompson died Satur-
day night at the residence of J. S.
Sandlin three miles south of Mc-
Kinney. The deceased lived on
Dr. McAulay's farm until his wife
and child died several jears ago.
He had been suffering with
Bright's disease for a long while
and was taken to the home of his
friend Mr. Sandlin, where he was
cared for until death came. The

grave yard Sunday afternoon.

"I was taken with an Itching on my
arms which proved very disagreeable. I
concluded it wast salt rheum and bought a
bottle of Hood's Sarsapprilla. In two dav*

"Some time ago my daughter
caught a severe cold. She com-
plained of pains in her chest and
had a bad cough. I gave her
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ac-
cording to directions and in two
days she was well and able to go
to school. 1 have used this rem-
edy in my fam-ly for the past
seveu years and have never
known it to fad." says James
Prendcrgast-, merchant, Annato,
Bay, Jamaica, West India Island^.
The pains in the chest indicated
an approachi/ig attack of pneu-
monia, which in tins instance was
undoubtedly warded off by Cham-
berlain's Cough Remedy. It
counteracts an v tendeucy of a
cold towards pneumonia. Sold

a little boy's i.ife saved.
I have a few words to say re-
garding Chamberlains Co'igh
Remedy. It saved my little bov's j
life and I feel that I cannot praise
it enough. I bought a bottle of
it from A. E. S tee re of Goodwin, j
S. D.. and when I got home with
it the poor baby could hardly
breathe. I gave the medicine as
I directed every ten minutes until I
! he "threw up"and then I thought
sure lie was going to choke to
j death. We had to pull the
phlegm out of hi- mouth in great

pastor here of the Methodist
church, he had in his flock a well
known railroad man and an inti-
mate friend. After leaving Mc-
Kinney Rev. Casey was later

Guthrie, Ok., Jan. 24.—George
Field, an operator on the Chicago
Indianapolis and Louisville Rail-
way at Romley, Ind., is fighting
in the Pawnee County courts to
recover his daughter, from whom
he has been separated for six year,
not knowing where her grand
parents had located with her. Six
years ago Field's wife died, leav-
ing a daughter 2 years old. He
placed the girl in the possession
of his wife's parents until be could
make turther arrangements. The
old folk soon afterwards left In-
diana and located in Kansas, but
kept the knowledge away from
Field, so he sits forth in hi^ pe-
tition to the court. Field asserts
that he spent three years in search-
ing before he located bis daughter
in Kansas, but that the old folks
immediately removed to Wood-
ward County, Oklahoma, again
giving him the slip, lie secured
a conference with them, and pro-
ceedings were commenced to get
possession of the girl; then the
old folks again moved quietly
awav. Another search of a long
period resulted in finding them in
Pawnee County, and on a telegram
from Field the Sheriff of that
county tojk possession of the girl
to aa'aitthe arrival of her father.
Now the old folks have started
habeas corpus proceedings to take
the girl from the Sheriff. Her
name is Fern Field.
