"Health Food" A Delusion.
The alleged "health food" with which
the markets are Hooded are "a delusion
and a sna-e." If your digestion is bad
V eat pure flour made out of good, sound
* Wheat, and do not fill your stomach with
chemically prepared "health foods."
"Cliftou" flour, the finest patent flour,
t made at Hransford Mills, Owensbor".
Ky , is the health food you need. Call
for "Clifton" when you order your flour.

Etchings from Etta Jane.
There will be but little cotto.*. picked
or wheat sown this week unless the
* weather changes. Very little cotton is
in the patch now.
e Last week the members of Salem
church put on two sides of new weathboarding
on their church building and
they expect to finish it up at an early .
date. Mr. II. Terry Estes is bossing "
the job and it looks very well. This
work has been on hand a long time or at
least its been a good while since the w ind
work began. But it will be finished up
all right now it appears. The people
generally have subscribed liberally to the
work, and I take this occasion ou the
behalf of the church to thank Congressman
D. E. Finley and Mr. W. It. Walker
for the liberal he'p they gave to the /*ork.
Mr Finley is always ready and ,v*
willing to help in any good work. Mr.
Willie R. Walker has always been a **
good friend to Salem. For a long time ,
the ferry at Ilowells was without any t!
m^ans of Crossing the river and he kindly
nn phllriran'i Huvn liio mootinn Juto ?fl
V? ? ?? W** w MU.J w-j M'P, uvvviUft UMJ o nuu M
for burial occasions loaned his cotton
boat for the convenience of the people H
wanting to cross, and 70W he'comes forward
with his means and liberally helps
to repair the church. Mr. Walker is
not a man to make a blowing horn of
his liberality, but we appreciate and acknowledge
it all the same.
As soon as the weatherboarding is put
on and other repairs made on the church
building the congregation propose to M
have the chuich painted. And in May
of 1904 have a centenial service there, it 1
being just 100 ytars since the chnrch
- was first organized. r
I have all my life been used to seeing r*
women paste papers on the inside of
'* their houses for comfort or beauty, but
a never until this morning saw them
r pasted on the outside for the same purpose.
Bctsv White, a colored lady in
6 this commui^, is the originator of this
new plan.
, Miss Margaret Pridmore, I am sorry
to say, is quite unwell.
* Mr. Jack Kendrick has ginned over
b 400 bales of cotton this season. lie has
an up-to-date ginning outfit and has a Ch
a large patronage. ;
r* The boys had a debate at the school Ch
house last Saturday night a week ago. 2i
They will keep it up for some time no Ei
doubt as they are raising a crop of ora- rie

Messrs. Frank Webber and Ilal Jef- 1
fries have completed the bridge ovt r Ec
e Tbickety creek at Owen's ford. This
d bridge was first built by Union county
e and it was a very shoddy job. But the '
pillars Messrs. Webber and Jeffries are '
putting there are rock aud will be there.

n John Cato, the mail carrier from Union i 1

a the roads have Income so bad and the olc

J A man gave his note for $000 at 5 per

Coming to Town.

e To mention Peck's Bad Boy to a boy ,j'
e is the next best thing to telling him that 1
a circus is coming to town. You will _
all, whether young or not, have the op- ^'
d portunity of seeing that frolicsome youth ' ,
h disporting himself and making life a 1 1
burden for all who come in contact with
him. He will illustrate new inventions (j
l? in practical jokes, and amuse and enterIt
tain you all in many ways too nnmerous
! to mention. His girl, his pa. his ma, R
' and Schultz the grocer and Duffy the
* policeman, and a lot of other folks are
r. coming with him, and will be at the
ie Open House on Deo. 27th.

is flour are kicking about their flour, nrers ^
^ of "Clifton" are enjoying the same contentment
