Excess Uric Acid Gives Rise to Mans
Unpleasant Troubles.
AUTHORITIES agree that an ex-
XjL cess of uric acid is primarily
due to faulty kidney action. Reten-
tion of this toxic material often
makes its presence felt by sore, pain-
ful joints, a tired, languid feeling
and, sometimes, toxic backache and
headache. That the kidneys are not
functioning right is often shown by
scanty or burning passage of secre-
tions. Thousands assist their kidneys
at such times by the use of Doan’s
Pills—a stimulant diuretic. Doan’s
are recommended by many local peo-
ple. Ask your neighbor!

ence. Marie Ballard, well remember-
■ ed as a small lass of this town, but
thousands of Americans, white and
negro, in the direst distress.
By all means give to this cause—
Thanksgiving and grati-
tude should prompt liberal gifts from
this section hardly touched by the
waters of the flood.
In response to a message from O.
F. Metz of Center, chairman for
Shelby County Red Cross organiza-
tion, in company with Mrs. M. M.
Carroll we canvassed Joaquin for our
pro rata of funds. For various rea-
sons, the colection was not commen-
surate with its citizens blessings at
this time. The Chautauqua was here
and some of the folks had signed the
guarantee and it seemed it was not
meeting with response from the peo-
ple. Some were brke—and a few did
not approve, and some would see us
later—which meant never. At Has-
lam we got nothing. Supt. McKee
told us that the mill had been closed
down two weeks and his men needed
help. To those who gave cheeringly
of what they could spare, we know
they will be blessed.
Dr. W. A. Ramsey was called to
Garrison three times this week-e«id,
to see the small son of his nephew,
Emmett Hairston and wife of Tex-
arkana, who were visiting with her
parents at Garrison when their child
was taken seriously ill with Diphtheria

EQUIPMENT—Nickel-plated bumpers, front and rear; no
draft ventilating windshield (exclusively Studebaker); full-size
balloon tires; disc wheels and positive acting foar-whcel me- •
chanical brakes; engine thermometer and hydrostatic gasoline
gauge on dash; two-beam acorn headlights, controlled from,
steering wheelrcowl lights and interior dome light; rear traffic
signal light; automatic windshield cleaner and rear-vision,
mirror; oil filter; Alemite chassis lubrication; silken curtMna&;
Butler-finish hardware.
neers, this is the world’s most powerful sedan of
its size and weight. So expect a new thrill when
you drive it.
Enjoy its brilliant performance—see how slowly
it will idle in high, how smoothly it accelerates,
how flashing fast it is on the pick-up, how easily it
darts through traffic openings, skims down the free
stretches, climbs the steepest hills.
In addition to Supremacy in power, this new
StudebakerCustom Sedan gives you a new standard
of safety—the safety of a full-vision steel body,
fused by electricity into a unit, practically indestruct-
ible—positive mechanical 4-wheel brakes, and the
finest steering mechanism ever devised.
Matching the custom beauty
of its lacquered exterior is the
custom luxury of its roomy in-
terior— rich mohair, exquisite
broadlace, Butler - finish hard-
ware, silk curtains, iridescent
dome light and deep, restful seats.
At its new low One-Profit price the Studebaker
Custom Sedan saves you money at the start and
saves you money all the way, because its lighter
steel construction is less wearing on tires and more
sparing of gasoline—gives greater economy all
’round. Drive it today—without obligation.
39 YEARS Dunlop has been build-
T? ing the world’s supreme tire. Dunlops
wear longer because Dunlop knows how to
build better at each vital point.
Take the hidden carcass beneath the
tread. Dunlop owns its own cotton mills
for no other purpose than to spin the best
long-fibre cotton into the famous cable-
twist cord that goes into this carcass.
The extra strength in these cords means
an added factor of safety against constant
load and pounding of roads—longer life
and greater mileage.
The extra ''stretch” enables the carcass
to give under severe blows, and to come
back into its original position without in-
ternal injury.
The Dunlop tread—the toughest rubber
development known—wears slowly and
smoothly, making sure that you get out of
your Dunlops, ail the extra mileage that
added care and longer experience have
bmit into them. We recommend that you
put Dwolops on your car.
Gives you
power, beauty,
safety, value

The Chatauqua closed its three
days engagement here Saturday ev-
ening. The lectures all the way
through were exceptionally fine and ■ give again,
especially the one Saturday night.
But the attendance at this time was
far below what it has been the last
two years, due largely to the fact
that the town is not financially able
to afford such high class entertain-
tainments. The people as a whole,
this includes the business men too,
have been in a financial strain. No
contract was made with the Chautau-
qua for any future engagement. They
lost money here this time, but accord- .
ing to previous agreement took their!
loss and went away quietly. If we
cannot afford entertainment of this
nature, we are in favor of barring
the cheap carnivals. All self-respect-
ing places have done this. Shall Joa-
quin go in the carnival class. The
last one was a disgrace to the town.
Why Should I Give?
The Red Cross has sounded nation-
wide appeal for funds to relieve the
suffering and distress of the victims
of the flood. At least ten million
dollars will be required to repair in a
measure the damage wrought in the
war of waters on the works of man.
At first it was thought that five mil-
lion would do but in a later state-
ment issued by our President de-
clares double this amount. A large
sum? Surely not. Think of the mil-
lions sent overseas for the reconstruc-
tion of war-torn lands. But congress
has no appropriation for the flood-
torn lands at home. Therefore the
appeal. The need is immediate. It is
not a matter of delay. There are (
