The City Barber Shop, re 26-tf Jno. R. Mathis, Prop. 01 KELTON G Kelton, Sept. 3.?On last Thursday rening the drouth was broken by a awnpour of rain and wind and small P ail. It was one of those August quick athered clouds. It commenced gathring a little northwest of Kelton, loving slowly as it gathered. Soon le fierce lightning began to play in le clouds, then the wind began to low and the hail began to rattle on ie houses for a few minutes and all f a sudden as an advancing army bout faced and began to retreat, so U1 as the wind and the storm. The u: 'ind blew harder and the hail pep- M ered down harder than I have ever ai sen before. I have seen heavy rains w ass over and then the wind change ai nd more rainfall but I never hnve " sen it so completely turn around, at ** ie same time the wind, rain and hail a' etting harder for several minutes and a^ hen all was over. The hail was small, bout the size of large wild grapes, he worst damage I have seen was on "" art of my farm. Cotton leaves and ^ ttle bolls lay thick on the ground. 'orn lay flat on the ground in places c' nd the fodder beaten into strings, 'ou might call it practically ruined. n ortunately the area covered by he ^ torm was small. ^ The protracted meeting at Foster a !hapel has closed. Rev. Mr. Kelly ^ ad no outside ministerial help at any n f his special meetings. While he j* K)ks sharply jaded" he has held out Ji ,'ell and preached an able sermon at 1 o'clock yesterday, his subject being, e The New Birth." There was a welllled church of attentive hearers pres n t. ? In the afternoon Mr. Robert Gar- * er's son, just reaching young man- s ood, was laid in his last resting ' lace in the presence of a large num- a er of sorrowing relatives and j riends the burial services conducted y the Rev. Mr. of Un- ^ m, assisted by Rev. Mr. Kelly of j[elton. Some say why don't you reply to ^ Ir. Harris' criticisms of what my iews on political matters. Well, I ay there is nothing to he gained onf ewspaper controversies on either tl olitical or religious questions and if C ran a newspaper no such should ao- tl ear in it. I have my opinion on poli- ic ics and everybody else should have si heirs and not somebody else's and we g hould not fall out about our honest t\ pinions, but I do not think that one's E riticism of another's that they should ci ersonate and the editor should cut n ut all such for I suppose that most eople know who G. T. G. is and also tl 'elephone. We are friends and to re- n lain friends is to keep all contro- C ersies out of newspapers. I met some T idies recently and they voluntarily e ommended my stand and if I got into a rouble they said they would come to a ly assistance. I had rather have the ood women on my side than the men. tl Ve all have our difference of opinions e n politics and religion. Great men o ave differed. St. Paul and Barnabas C iffered. There is one thing I am op- ai osed to; that is deception in man or ations. Is it not a fact that our na- t< on has ever intended finally to ex- a nipt auie-uoaiea men irom service it hose families were dependent upon tl leir husbands' support for a living. a ; seems clear to my mind from what a see in the press that the families of ir ble-bodied men whose families are tl ipendent will be cared for by the gov- ti -nment. Is there anything wrong in lis? No, if there is no deception ir sed there is no just reason for an in- G ividual or a nation to practice it; lev sooner or later will suffer for it. ai am not so big a fool as to think that A nation engaged in a war should not ?e all the stratagem they can to gain e< le victory. Let us use a few Bible ei laracters and see what they gained / the practice. First, what old Ja- w >b gained by cheating his brother ol sau out of his birthright? Nothing tc it trouble. First what his jealous pi >ns did because Jacob loved Joseph ai id Benjamin more than the others, ti lseph had a coat of many colors. His cj [ others conspired together how they ei ight heap trouble on their father, 01 icob, for his greater love for Joseph. Hiile out watching their flock they rc >ld Joseph to a band of Ishmaelites; m llrwl o i,iA ??wi ?-i n- * M niu c* I ill VlipjiCU III?> lUUt OI * I any colors in the blood and told him in i evil beast had killed him, showing ci m the coat. That probably was the R iginning of his many troubles. At ni st these same brothers had to pro h< >wn into Egypt and humble them- w dves for bread and finally old Jacob R id to send Benjamin, his younger son ft horn he loved next to Joseph, before m s could gei, food. Great was the g ouble Jacob had to endure for tell, g his old blind father, Isaac, a lie d< id deceiving him. My young Christ- ?1 n men and women, just read the ai hole story in the book of Genesis al God's dealing with Jacob and his hi imily. It is one of the most beautiil pieces of history in the whole Bie. How is it that our nation will b: op selling' to neutral countries any- rr ling that they suppose the neutrals ir - e sending to Germany or any of her n lies. Are there any neutral of inter- o] Uional laws giving them that right, lc ' there are any such laws they are s< it just and should be repudiated by ti ncle Sam at once. So if Uncle Sam 01 in trample international law under t< is ieei men -lermany nas the same ti ght to violate any international law. w don't see that any nation can he tl ^solutely neutral to nations who are li ^ war when they aid either nation in f< iy way to carry on their war to a n lccessful end. But international laws si re like state or national laws. Poli- w cians Ret in and Ret such articles tempted so that the biR concerns can w ake their millions ano- even billions o< ' dollars where the averaRe man can't >ach, so you see it is really special v class legislation. Look what the K OOD OLD-FASHIONED IRON BEST AS TONIC LAIN. HIGHLY CONCENTRATED NATURAL IRON STRONGER ANI> CONTAINS NO HABIT FORMING DRUG. NARCOTIC OR ALCOHOL. WHOLE FAMILIES USE IT. The use of just plain, ordinary, natral iron, procurable at any drug store nder the trade name of Acid Iron lineral, will stimulate the digestion nd appetite, and make any man or oman rundown and weak, stronger nd more vigorous before a dollar bote is half gone, and according to ists of thirty years, the absence of Icohol and purgatives in this remarkble remedy makes it ideal as a nonabit forming tonic and blood purifier. We are bound to notice an improvelent shortly after taking Acid Iron lineral because it is from two to six mes stronger than the usual chamiilly "prepared" tonics. Being a natural, medicinal iron with o narcotics, alcohol or laxative added, .cid Iron Mineral may be given freely > Ihe whole family for blood, kidneys nd digestion. Be sure you get the ighly concentrated iron. The tradelark "A-I-M protects you. There car e no danger of reaction, false stimuition or of anyone forming the habit 'he more you use of Acid Iron Minral, the less you need it. 11 the Dowels are normal, we strong/ advise against the use of any remdy containing laxatives, but where ne's bowels arj sluggish, the little i-I-M Tablets you can get at the drug tore for 25c are admirable little livet ills and bowel regulators and work plendidly in conjunction with Acic ron Mineral.

To make clear the attiude of the Red Cross, Henry P lavison, chairman of the war coun il, authorizes the following state tent: When war was declared betweer he United States and Germany, the eutrality of the American Rec !ross, of course, ended automatically 'he American Red Cross can cooprate only behind the lines of the rmies of the United States and its Hies. But the Red Cross knows no such hing :>8 the nationality of a woundAny wounded enemy turner ver to the care of the American Rer ross -will receive as kindly treatmenl s any friend. The Red Cross will not only exmd every aid and comfort to the rmies of America and its allies, bul will assist in every possible way le sick, the wounded and afflicted mong the civilian populations mong our allied countries. This is i conformity with the practice of le Red Cross society in every coun y. As to the policy of the Red Cross ) this country toward those of er nan origin: The Red Cross knows no difference n?l makes no distinction between any merican citizen. Insofar as base hospital units arc iiuerned ,the Red Cross equips and ilists the personnel of those to be nt to Europe to operate not only ith our own armies but with those f our allies. Once enlisted and mus red into service, these units become n t of the army of the United States, id there is of course, no discriminaoii by the Red Cross or the Arnerim army against any loyal American tizen, no matter of what national itrin. Our allies in Europe, however, have 'quested the American State Departent not to permit persons born in lcmy countries, or of parents born i ,in enemy country to travel as viiians in any of the allied countries. ORPPfinntiltionf? hnu/PUPr Kavn Knnn ade by the Red Cross, which it is >ped will ultimately prove effective, hereby loyal American citizens on ed Cross service, may be exempted om the operation of this rule, no alter what the country of their oriin. The Red Cross wants it clearly un?r tood that it welcomes the coloration of every loyal American, id that it does not regard that loyty as measured by the country of is origin. ig corporations of America have lado in this great war. Stop all aidig in any way you will cut out the loney question and we will not heai f many long wars. But you see the >ve of money is the root of all evil 5 says the Word of God. Our coun y has a perfect right to fix prices a all commodities to carry this wai > a guccessful end. If it is a violaon of our liberties or freedom. Some ill say that America is taking from le people the very thing freedom and berty which we claim to be fightinp >r, so I say that Germany committed o murder after she notified the worlc ie would sink all merchant vessel! ithout any warning.

Y.?Most people foolishly seem to think they ere going to , got renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, secret nosi trum or narcotic drug, said Dr. E. , Sauer. a Boston physician who has studied widely both In tills country and great European Medical Institutions when, as a matter of fact, real and true strength can only come from the food you eat. But people often fall to i get the strength out of their food be. cause they haven't enough iron in their blood to enable It to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something Is wrong, but they can't tell what, so they generally commence doctoring for stomach, liver or kidney trouble or symptoms of some other ailment caused l by lack of Iron In the blood. This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffers untold agony. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far i you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets of or> dinary Nuxated Iron three times per r day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for ' yourself how much you have gained.
