SAVED HIS MOTHER'S LIFE.
"Four doctors had given me
up," writes Mrs. Laura Gaines,
of Avoca, La., "and my children"
and all my friends were looking
for me to die, when my son in-
sisted that I use Electric Bitters.
I did so, and they have done me
a world of good. I will always
praise them." Electric Bitters
is a priceless blessing to women
troubled with fainting and dizzy
spells, backache, headache,
weakness, debility, constipation
or kidney disorders. Use them
and gain new health, strength
and vigor. They're guarnteed
to satisfy or money refunded.
Only 50c at all Druggists.
Smallpox at Long Creek.
Dr. Fields, county health of-
ficer, was here Wednesday, en
route to and from Long Creek,
where he went to see Ed Coats,
whom he pronounced as having
a well developed case of Small-
pox. While there he arranged
for the usual precautions to pre-
vent the spread of the disease.
Mr. Coats lives near East Fork
bottom, about two miles east of
Long Creek.
Presbyterian Church.
Services as usual at the Pres-
byterian church next Sunday.
Yet, I wish to make special the
announcement for the morning
service.
While every one is cordially
invited we especially desire the
presence of all members of the
Presbyterian church.
What is your estimate of the
church's worth in town? How
may your neighbors judge your
estimate? When is that esti-
mate put to the test?
Ponder over these questions
next Sunday morning, men, as
you go to the post office after
your Dallas News.
C. G.Wright, Pastor.
LOOKING FOR A MAN
Although an elderiy spinster lady will usually tell you
that she doesn't need a man because she "has a parrot that
swears, a monkey that chews tobacco, a dog that growls
and a cat that stays out all night yet you'll always find her
looking under the bed for these'horrid bipeds". We are
looking for a man too. If you need lumber or building
material of any kind ♦ you 're the chap we're looking for.
