Twelve bales of choice cotton
sold at 11 cents per pound in
Temple Wednesday, says the
Temple Telegram.
L. R. Barton, of Bertram, has
been a visitor here several days
of this week attending court. He
owns some valuable property in
this oounty and we might locate
him here permanently.
D. D. May, whose home was
formerly here but who is now in
charge of the Wm. Cameron &
Co. lumber business at Bynum,
Hill oounty, sends a remittance
to have The Leader come to him
in his new home. He is a worthy
young man and is making a sue
cess.
W. A. Faires, of the Bertram
seotion, was here several days of
this week visiting his daughters,
Mesdames John Oliver and Min
nie Childers. He is one of the
honored Confederate Veterans,
belonging to Green’s Brigade,
and nearly always attends the
meeting when they have their
annual reunions.
Tuesday, Sept. 14, was the
sixtieth anniversary of the mar-
riage of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Huff-
aker. Some of their friends
dropped in that afternoon giving
them a very pleasant surprise. It
is not often we have the oppor
tunity of congratulating a couple
who have lived happily together
this long and we all wish them
many happy returns of this
eventful day. x
District court is still in session,
but there is so little doing that
the lawyers appear more idle
than in vacation time. Judge
Robinson remarked that there is
less business here than any point
in his distriot, and it is like a
season of rest to him to come
here to court. He spent part of
last week in Hamilton county,
and frequently, visits his home in
Belton during .the terms of the
district court here.
September 16th is the anni-
versary of the declaration of the
independence of Mexico from the
rule of Spain, and there was con-
siderable nervousness among
American citizens at Browns-
ville, San Antonio and other
points where the Mexioan popu-
lation is numerous. Every pre-
caution was taken to prevent out-
breaks or serious disturabance,
but it will not be known how ef-
fective these precautions proved
until the day and the day or two
following, has passed. At
Brownsville and San Antonio
the U. S. troops, as well as citi-
zens, were on guard to prevent
any disorder.

Judge John D. Robinson will
serve the people of this district
yet for another year, or two more
terms of the district court, those
of next April and September of
1916. He is a candidate for con-
gress from the district where he
resides, and will make an active
campaign for that office. The bar
of this county has given him a
hearty endorsement for the of-
fice which he seeks, and his
friends of the legal fraternity
here will be glad to see him pro-
moted to the higher position, of
which he is entirely worthy. He
has served the people of this
county and of Bell and Mills
oounties faithfully as district
judge, and while this county is
not in the congressional district
in which he lives, many friends
here will be glad to see him
reach the goal of his ambition.
He is well posted as to the needs
of the people of Texas, and will
make a faithful member of the
national lawmaking body.
South
Carolina Votes Dry by Large
Majority.
Columbia, S. C., Sept. 14.—By
a vote of 2 1-2 to 1, South Caro-
lina today voted for prohibition
in the statewide election ordered
by the last General Assembly.
The vote was not heavy only
about 60,000 votes being cast.
Prohibition seems to have car-
ried forty-two out of forty-four
counties. In Dorchester the vote
is close, while Charles went
against prohibition by a vote of
10 to 1. The prohibition law will
ake effect Jan. 1.
Tho fire alarm was sounded
Thursday morning about 9:30,
the blaze being at the home of
Mrs,.T. R. Colbert, where a gas-
oline stove was giving trouble by
burning gasoline instead of the
proper vapor. The fire boys
made a quick run to the place,
but the trouble was over before
they arrived. People cannot be
too careful with gasoline and
kerosine, as they are surpassed
in danger only by dynamite and
gunpowder.
There will be an ice cream sup-
per at the John Clark store build-
ing in Kempner, Saturday night,
Sept. 25, 1915, for the benefit of
the Baptist church. Everybody
invited to come and have an en-
joyable evening. X

Society will give an ice cream

COULD
SCARCELY
WALK ABOUT
And For Three Summers Mrs. Vin-
cent Was Unable to Attend to
Any of Her Housework.
Pleasant Hill, N. C.—“I suffered for
three summers,” writes Mrs. Walter
Vincent, of this town, "and the third and
last time, was my worst.
I had dreadful nervous headaches and
prostration, and was scarcely able to
walk about. Could not do any of my
housework.
I also had dreadful pains in my back
and sides and when one of those weak,
sinking spells would come on me, 1
would have to give up and lie down,
until it wcre off.
I was certainly in a dreadful state of
health, when 1 finally decided to try
Cardui. the woman’s tom hv
believe 1 would have died if I hadn’t
taken it.
After I began taking Cardui, I was
greatly helped, and all three bottles re-
lieved me entirely.
I fattened up, and grew so much
stronger in three months, I felt like an-
other person altogether.”
Cardui is purely vegetable and gentle-
acting. Its ingredients have a mild, tonic
effect, on the womanly constitution.
Cardui makes for increased strength,
improves the appetite, tones up the ner-
vous system, and helps to make pale,
sallow cheeks, fresh and rosy.
Cardui has helped more than a million
weaft women, during the past 50 years.
It will surely do for you, what it has
done for them. Try Cardui today.
