^ FREE DINNER
Old Masqnic Hall, Tuesday, May 2.
Auspices Mothers1 Club.
The Mothers' Club of Alto
High School will give a Free
Dinner ou the above date to
all who will partake of their
hospitality. This is done in
the interest of the school, in
regard to which the above is a
critical dale. Come, do your
duty toward your school as
you see it; and, whether you
vote for the maintenance tax
or not, we heartily welcome
you to this dinner.
Mothers, do you ever take
the time and opportunity to
couusel with your boys and
tell them how easy it is to step
into trouble that would not
only cost money and grief,
but would leave an ugly wound
in their lives? It is reported
that two or three lads have
been seen loafing lately where
they should not have been. It
may be your boy and now is
the time, before it is too late,
for you to know where your
boys are when the evening
shadow appears.—Ex.
ed the negro and started to
jail.witli him. A little ways
from the depot the negro sud/
denly grabbed the constable's
gun and in the scuffle that folx
lowed both fell in a ditch when
the negro grabbed a brick or
something and hit Mr. Bur-
rows over the eye. The negro
made his escape and the of-
ficers ran him to Redfield
where he caught f freight train
and made his escape. It has
developed since that the negro
is an escaped hofse thief from
some point south of here and
is a desperate character. As
a result of the eucounter Mr.
Burrows has a. painful wouud
above the eye, also the.loser of
a Stetsou hat which was lost
in the chase to Redfield.—

"Four doctors had given tne up,
writes Mrs. Laura Gaines,
Avoca. La., "and mv children and
•11 my friends were looking for me
to die, when my son insisted that I
use Electric Bitters. I did so, and
they have done me a world of
good- 1 will always praise them."

blessing to women troubled with
fainting and dizzy spells, backache,

The next time you feel like
saying ''Everybody in town
gets their name in this darned
paper except me," stop and
think a moment and see if you
have done anything on which
the editor is under obligations
to base a paragraph about or
concerning you. Have you
built a new house; donated any
sum of money for the upbuild-
ing of the town? Have you
started a business euterprise
or any movement for the pub-
lic good? Have you been born,
got married, or died? Have
you "entertained" or given
other social functions and in-
vited the editor, or otlier mem/
bers of his family? I11 a word,
if you wish to be "famous" do
something! Of course if you
are a "dead one" the paper
might now and then put in an
item to the effect that "Old
Grouch" is still growling
around the streets but that
wouldn't be news. Do some-
thing and cackle and you'll
get your name in tlife paper
alright, alright.
