LOCKHART JUNCTION
Lockhart Junction, Jan. 15.?The
day is cold, raining and freezing. The
weather prophet hit it; he said it
would be freezing today. Well, we
are all pretty well up on the weather,
for we are likely to have one bad day
for every good day at this season of
the year.
Yesterday was a beautiful Sabbath;
seemed very much like a spring day.
Many visitors were at Sunday school.
Among them were Mrs. (). B. Belue
and two little daughters of the Bonham
community. Mrs. Belue is interested
in the Sunday schools and mission
work. She attends the Sunday
school at the Oakland school house.
We were plad to have her at the Gauft
Sunday school Sunday. We welcome
her any time and invite all others to
?ur Sunday school.
The laprippe is prevailing in many
places. A preat many are complaining
of colds; some are in bed.
Mrs. T. 11. Kelly is very sick at
tms writing. The doctor has been attending
her. We hope she will he better
soon.
This writer is not feeling the best
in the world today. We have had a
light attack of cold, but the few pretty
days last week made us feel like
I could get out and so Itook a drive
in the West Springs section, coming
back with more cold than I left with,
so I am going to stay in a few days.
I met many good people of the Bogansville
section, stopping at the home
of Mr. G. T. Hyatt. We found him in
bed sick; said he had been sick several
weeks. We hope when we hear
from him again he will be better. We
found very sick child at Mr. Thurston
ISogan of the same section. We
spent the night with Mr. .1. l?oyd Lancaster,
where we were treated with
kind hospitality.
Well, there is nothing doing on the
f i?ies but cutting and hauling of firowood.
Wo find in some places the
peonle in the country are using coal.
It seems that wood i~- getting* source
in some places, and some are buying
coal, because, they say it is the saving'
of cutting for they have to cut
tii" woo') and they don't have to cut
the coal.
Well, prices are advancing again.
Flour went olT some and now it has
gained what it lost. The war has
been the great cause of high prices,
it seems. This war is a war of speculation.
When the war broke out two
years ajro it scared the price of cotton
down. Now, since there has been talk
of peace, the market went down, or it
seems that kept the market weak.
Yo and I read but we don't understanu
all this speculation. I think
about condition of things as I read
and then again I stop to think how
long will things go just like they are.
I think sometimes if man doesn't do
right God will fix things.
Congress should look into the matter
of speculation, for all this speculation
is gambling.
People, I have come to believe I
can't be fooled all the time, don't you?
Abraham Lincoln said you could fool
part of the people part of the time.
but you couldn't fool all the people all
the time. It looks like everything possible
has been done to fool the people
and I think about what else is
going to conie. Many prophesies have
been fulfilled and we don't know what
is coming next.
Mr. R. F. flault, who now lives at
Union, has been up to see his brother
in this section.
I met many young lady teachers at
the Junction Saturday on their way
to Union to get their claims cashed.
Mr. W. CI. Trady, a traveling man
well known in this section, was in thi?
community Saturday. Moxy.
A large deposit of potash has been
discovered in the basin of Malheur
lake, near liurns, Ore. Steps are being
taken to obtain permission to
drain the lake.
The United States bought most of
the sugar produced in St. Croix, Danish
West Indies, during ltUo. Uxports
to this country were valued at .yJ.V.),963.
UGH! ACID STOMACH,
SOURNESS,HEARTBURN
GAS OR INDIGESTION
The .Moment "l'ape's Diapepsin"
Reaches the Stomach AH Distress
Does.
Do some foods you eat hit hack?taste
koo?1? hut work badly; ferment
into stubborn lumps and cause a sick,
sour, gassy stomach? Now, Mr. or
Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down; l'ape's
Diapepsin digests everything, leaving
nothing to sour and upset you. There
never was anything so safely quick, so
certainly effective. No difference how
badly your stomach is disordered you
will get happy relief in five minutes,
but what pleases you mo?t is that it
strengthens and regulates your stomach
so you can eat your favorite foods
without fear.
Most remedies give you relief sometimes?they
are slow, but not sure.
"Pape's Diapepsin" is quick, positive
and puts your stomach in a healthy
condition so the misery won't come
back.
You feel different as soon as
"Pape's Diapepsin" comes in contact
with the stomach?distress just vanishes?your
stomach gets sweet, no
gases, no belching, no eructations of
undigested food, your head clears and
you feel fine.
(io now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large
fifty-cent case of 1'ape's Diapepsin
from any drug store. You realize in
five minutes how needless it is to
suffer from indigestion, dyspepsia or
any stomach disorder.
WEST PAYS HONOR
TO CODY'S MEMORY
Thousands View "Buffalo Bill's" Body
as It Lies in State in Denver.
Cowboys Say "Good-Bye."
Denver, Jan .14.?The West today
paid honor to the membory of Col.
William F. Cody, (Buffalo Bill).
While the body of the man who had
done so much to make her cities possible,
lay in state beneath the dome
of the capitol, troops from Fort Logan
formed lines in the rotunda of the
capitol, troops from Fort Logan of
ttwo States, delegations from the legislature
of those States, officers of
the United States army, members of
fraternal organizations, of which the
famous scout and plainsman was a
member, veterans of the Grand Army
of the Republic, women and thousands
of children. Not the least the conspicuous
among the mourners who
passed the great bronze casket were
a handful of old Indians and former
scouts?those who had been youths in
the famous Wild West show which
bore Col. Cody's pseudonym.
The body was dressed in a frock
/I A?1 f An r\I lk/\
vvub vii wnn.il ncic |>IIIIIUU tlic U
of the Legion of Honor and of the
Grand Army of the Republic. The
casket bore the inscription, "Col. William
F. Cody, 'Buffalo Bill.'"
Viewed by a Vast Crowd.
Col. Cody's body was brought into
the Capitol at 9:50 o'clock this morning.
At 12 o'clock, the hour set for
the closing of the casket, the crowd
was still coming.
The public was held back while the
family bade the Colonel farewell. With
the family was "Johnny" Baker, of
| New Rochelle, N. Y., who was with
Col. Cody i?i his adventurous entcr,
prises for many years.
I Following the family, a delegation
I of Knights Templar from North
Platte, Neb., passed the bier. Afterj
wards marched a delegation of forntci
1 cowboys.
"Good-bye, Old Papd," "Good bye
1 Bill," were some nf their greetings.
The guard of honor at the casket
I included delegations from Colorado
National Guard, the Pioneer Society.
I the Elks and the Grand Army.
The public again was admitted at
12:10 o'clock for twenty minutes. A
line extending more than a block shivered
in the cold wind, waiting for a
chance to enter. Twenty-five thousand
persons passed by the casket, according
to estimates.
Funeral Procession.
From the Capitol the "funeral procession
passed through the down-town
streets, led by city policemen. Behind
was the caisson on which rested
the casket.
Among the distinguished citizens in
the procession were Julian C. Gunter,
governor of Colorado; John B. Kendrick
fnvpmnr nf W?nminr?'
Howard, lieutenant governor of Nebraska;
the secretaries of States of
Colorado and Wyoming; legislative
delegations from Nebraska, Colorado
and Wyoming, and Elks from Kansas
and New Mexico. Bringing up the
rear of the cortege 70 cowboys walked.
Two of them led Col. Cody's horse,
"McKinley," with the plainsman's pistols
hung from the saddle horn.
Several thousand persons followed
the coflin to the Elks home, where the
funeral services were held. Several
hundred, unable to gain admission,
stood for two hours outside to view
the body at the close of the services.
Later the hodv will he nlneort in n
rock-hewn vault at the summit of
Lookout Mountain, at Golden.

LOCKHART
Lockhart, Jan. 15.?The basketball
team of the Lockhart school has made
a splendid record this season. Six
Kames have been played and the local
team has not received a defeat in any
of these games. The fast and accurate
work of the Lockhart team has
been too much for their rivals and
opponents during the entire season.
It is an evident fact that the Ixjckhart
school has a team that can easily defeat
any school team in the county.
In fact, the record of the team is
above the average for a high school.
The total score for the season is: Opponents,
32; Lockhart, 97. The score
shows the comparatively strength of
the local team. The hard games on
Lockhart's schedule have not yet been
played, however. The entire school
and the basketball fans of the community
are looking forward to the
frames with Wofford Fitting School
and the Chick Springs Military Academy.
Both these games will possibly
be played on the local grounds.
The honor roll of the school for
last month is as follows:
Primary department: Ruth Blackwood,
Verda Hallman, Lorena Parker,
Evelina Gibson, John Henry Gibson.
First grade: David Lockman, Charlie
Blackwood, Inza Cabaniss.

The sure and certain increase in
cotton acreage means lower cotton
prices next fall. Cost of all food and
grain pro 'nets is high, so high that
no ona v..n afford to buy and expect
to pay out with cotton.
It's a timo above all others to play
safd; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your
own acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended- TMid
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay half your living. It will
save you more money than you made
on the best five acres of cotton you
ever grew!

DRIVING OUT CATARRH
If people knew how the presence
of catarrh is a constant menace,
I they would havo none of It. It
Infests some part of tlio delicately
adjusted body and makes It useless,
thus throwing on tho other organs
more than their share of work. It
affords a carefully prepared seedbed
for the germs of colds, grip,
tuberculosis and pneumonia. It so
disarranges Nature's delicate plans
as to make possible asthma, hay
fever and other respiratory disorders
It spreads until it becomes
systemic, thus involving many organs
and debilitating tho entire
system with serious results.
Catarrh is easily neglected, and
It rarely , gets well of Itself. It
needs proper medicinal correction.
For almost half a century many
thousands have found help In Peruna,
a valuable tonic with special
efllency in catarrhal conditions.
