NOW FOR THE PICNIC
The Correspondents’ and Farmers’ Picnic is now a certainty. An invitation is extended to all to come. Senator Steve Clay and Coni
gressman Gordon Lee will be here, and we are expecting one of the largest crowds that ever came together at one time before in Dallas
It will be the grandest day, perhaps, in the history of our town and county. It will do you good to be here. Come and bring the childrenl
Remember the Date, Saturday, July 22nd.
Locals.
Miss Bertha Parker is visiting
at McPherson.
Prof, W. C. Denn spent Sunday
and Monday in Atlanta.
H. T. Parker’s tombstones are
both pleasing to the eve and es
pecially appealing to the purse.
Mr. and Mrs. T. It. Gridin are
the guests of relatives in Carrol-
ton this week.
Miss Maud Perkenson, of Aus-
tall, is keeping books for the
Dixie Canning Co.
Mr. H. T. Parker oilers during
July a special discount on all
purchases of tombstones.
Work on the new Baptist
church has been suspended for a
few days on account of rain.
Hon. Harvie Jordan will prob
ably be with us to address the
people on picnic day, Saturday,
July 22nd. ’
In order to reduce his immense
stock of tombstones, for the next
20 days 11. T. Parker will sell at
a great discount.
t On last Thursday evening the
Juniors ushered a number of new
members into their “chamber of
horrors.” There was a drill team
out from Atlanta, among whom
were W. It. Dale, Counselor; M.
H. Abbott, vice Counselor; W. N.
Hadden, Junior Past; Baretield,
Conductor, also Messrs. Hudson
and Babb. It goes without say-
' ing they had a royal time—since
’twould be “nigh on to impossi
ble” to find a more loyal and con
genial company of men than the
Juniors are.
How to Dress the Hair Tastefully.
The gitl with the high forehead
should wear her hair down low
over the brow.
If she has a low, smooth, white
brow, she Bhould brush her hair
well off the forehead.
A madonna face requires the
hair parted in the middle.
The girl with an intellectual
brow or a fair share of youthful
beauty can afford to draw her
hair back in loose waves, sane
pompadour or parts, and coil it
on the neck.
For elderly matrons the pomp
adour is dignified and stately,
and it seems to increase the
height of stout women.
The round,shapely head looks
well with a soft puff of hair at
the nape of the neck.
Every woman should study
her own style. If she looks best
with her hair low, then low she
should wear it, though every
woman in the land is piling her
hair on top of her head.
A wise woman never curls or
frizzes or overdresses her if it is
beaqtiful of itself.
Minstrel Show.
Don’t fail to go out to the min
strel Friday night, July 14th, as
it is scheduled to be the best
show that has ever been in Dal
las. The boys have been at work
rehearsing for two months and
have things down fine. The old
time negro and his antics of fun
as he gave before the war, the
modern “high toned nigger” of
today, plays and sketches, mon
ologues, sqngs and high-class
specialties. The grand opening
will represent our national colors
of “ye olden times,” a pretty
and pleasing costume. Come
out Friday night; fill the new
•school auditorium. The prices
only 15 and 25 cents. Watch for
the band parade.

A CITY PARK.
Old Baptist Church Bought by the
Mayor and Council.
A trade was consumated be
tween the town authorities and
a committee from the Baptist
church the latter part of last
week which means that Dallas is
to have a park. They have se
cured about three acres of land
where the old Baptist church
now stands which is to be used
for a park.
In securing this piece of prop
erty the town has made a most
valuable addition. It is a beau
tifully shaded spot of ground.
The natural drainage is fine and
the place by a little work can be
made a most beautiful park.
The price paid was $700. In
tbis the town made no mistake,
as it was proposed by a private
individual to take it off of their
hands at the same price at any
time. The church authorities
were offered $750 for the ground
to be used for private purposes,
but the church representatives
were extremely anxious for the
town to own and use the same
for park purposes, and in this
way both sides were benelitted
by the trade. It was the last
chance for a convenient part.
The Bartlett grove, where all
of the picnics and public speak
ings have been held heretofore,
will soon be in use. This would
have left the town in a very awk
ward position and much handi
capped for public occasions hud
it not been for the action of the
council in this purchase.
We are sure that this trade
meets the approval of all good
cetizens.
Hurrah for Dallas!
$25.00 Reward.
The above reward will be paid
for the arrest—with evedence to
convict—of the person or persons
that stole a belt 10 inches wide
from my grist mill on the night
of June 18th.
Mrs. J. M. Davis.

Notice.
I will be on my farm the last
week in July. Anyone wanting
to’rent land or buy lumber can
see me. Mrs. J. M. Davis,

helped me until I took Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption,
cough and colds which gave in
stant relief, and effected a per
manent cure.” Unequalled quick
cure for throat and lung troubles.

There is mdre catarrh in this section of
the country tlmn any otlur diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to he incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced H a local
disease and prescribed local remedies and
by constant failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrli to be a consti
tutional disease aud therefore rsijuires
constitutional treatment. Hall’s catarrh
cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
ure on the market, It is taken internal-
ly in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoouful.
It sets directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars aud testimo
nials.

Well, Mr. Editor, as you
were so kind as to give us
space in your highly appreci
ated paper last week we will
come again.
Our singing last Sunday
has come and gone, but has
left a sweet memory with
many of us that long will be
remembered, as the music

good as could be made. The
class was conducted by the
well known J. B. MeBrayer,
and we all know he makes a
success at anything he under
takes.
We are glad to state that
Miss Trudie Adair, who has
been very sick with typhoid
