spirituality and fervor that impress his
hearers in a most helpful way. The

Ques-
Health Promotes Happiness.
Without health, genuine joy is impos
sible; without good digestion and regu
lar bowel movement you cannot have
health. Why neglect keeping bowels
open and risk being sick and ailing?
You don’t have to. Take one small Dr.
King's New Life Pills nt night, in the
morning have a full, free bowel move
ment and feel much better. Helps
your appetite and digestion. Try one
to-night.

Th* Judges, Not the Lawyers,
tlon the Witnesses.
The defendant In n Japanese court
was testifying In bis own behalf. He
stood directly In front of the presiding
Judge, not tea feet distant from him.
and answered bis questions In a clear
voice, without any apparent hesitation.
The Judge seemed conversant with the
case, for he put questlous rupldly, giv
ing a funny little grunt of acquiescence
after every answer. Occasionally one
of the associates wrote a suggestion
und handed It to the president and
once or twice the defendant’s counsel
asked the court to put a certain In
quiry. The whole proceeding—and the
same may lie said of those In several
other courts I visited—was conducted
In a quiet, colloquial way. In every
Instance I was impressed with the sim
ple, businesslike atmosphere.
Some of the Japanese lawyers with
whom 1 have tallied say that they feel
that very often the court does not
elicit all the facts und Unit our system
of having witnesses questioned by
counsel would be better, lint, ou the
other band, some lawyerj maintain
that better results ure realized by the
system, which puts upon ilie court the
duty of getting at the truth, mnlntalu
lug that the witnesses are more apt to
talk frankly to tile court thun to the
lawyer for the opposite side who Is
engaged, ns they think, in trying to
make them out liars.
1 came away quite favorably Im
pressed with what I saw and wonder
ing whether on the wbole In 95 per
cent of the cases a decision by three
Judges trained In the Investigation of
facts would not lie as nearly right as
the verdict of twelve citizens casually
gathered In from the general com
munlty.—George VV. Wickers hum in

Are You Rheumatic—Try Sloan’s.
If you want quick and real relief from
rheumatism do what so many thousand
other people are doing—whenever an
attack comes on, bathe the sore muscle
or joint with Sloan’s Liniment. No
need to rub it in—just apply the lini
ment to r.he surface. It is wonderfully
penetrating. It goes right to the seat
of trouble and draws the pain almost
immediately. Get a bottle of Sloan’s
Liniment for 25c. of any druggist and
have it in the house—agninst colds, sore
and swollen joints, lumbago, sciatica
and like ailments. Your money hack if
not satisfied, but it does give almost
instant relief.
The man worth while is the man who
can smile when the biscuits taste too
strongly of saleratus.
No Use to Try and Wear Out Your
Cold; it Will Wear You Out Instead,
Thousands keep on suffering from
coughs and and colds through neglect
and delay. Why make yourself an easy
prey to serious ailments and epidemics
as the result of a neglected cold? Colds
and coughs sap your strength and vi
tality unless checked in the early stages.
Dr. King’s New Discovery is what you
need—the first dose helps. Your head
clears up. you breathe freely, and you
feel so much better. Bu.v a bottle to
day and start taking at luve.

With a heart overflowing with sor
row we chronicle tho death of Rev.
Mr. Turner, pastor of Line Creek
church, which sud event occurred at his
home near Aberdeen on Monduy of last
week. Deceased served four churches,
and his death is much lumented by his
membership, for they loved and esteem
ed him. He entered the ministry only u
few years ago, but bis zeal and fer
vency in the Master's cause had won
for him a popularity that commanded
tho confidence of the entire ltuptist
denomination, and that of other Chris
tian people as well. To the bereaved
wife and children, und others whose
hearts have been touched by this sor
row, we extend our sincere condolence.
To our departed brother and co-worker
in the Master's vineyard we would say,
"Farewell till we meet again, und meet
to part no more.”
In our last letter we stated that Miss
I’auline Gluss died at Woodbury. We
have learned since that she passed
away at the home of her brother, in At
lanta.
During the past few days of open
weather much farm work has been done
in preparation for the coming crops.
There will be a smaller acreage in cot
ton, less fertilizer used, and fewer

Next Saturday and Sundny are regu
lar meeting days at Pleasant Hill
church, and the pastor hopes to bo
greeted by good congregations.
