I made an effort the first of this year to get some action taken against dogs roam ing at large on our streets, but nothing came of it. More power to you in your figiit on the dog question.

PEPT0-IHA1AN KEEPS BLOOD PURE Growing Children Need Plenty of Red Cells in Blood When the young body is grow ing, children frequently experi ence weakness. Girls and boys sometimes play too hard and over tax their systems. They become pale, weak and sickly. They lose their appetites, become languid, and are not able to make progress in their school work. “Growing too fast” is often true. It is most important to keep the blood of growing girls and boys in a heal thy state. Pepto-Mangan keeps the blood pure. The red cells in the blood are increased. They carry life- giving oxygen to all parts of the body, and wholesome youthful ness blooms again in clear com plexions, bright eyes and buoyant spirits. Sold both in liquid and tablet form by druggists every where. The name “Gude’s Pepto- Mangan” is on the package. Ad vertisement. I have the best thing on the market to make an au tomobile look new. Kar- shine will do it. J. O. Connally If was with a very great degree of disappointment that we closed our first attraction of the Lyceum course for this season. Since that number represented to us as the “Cathredral Quartette” fell so far short of making good or of appro- mating what it had been repre sented to us, we at once register ed complaints at headquarters. So eager is the president of the Alkahast Lyceum to give perfect satisfaction, such as we had in our last year’s entire course that he makes us this attractive and plaus ible offer at a later date he will send to us a splendid attraction, making it free to all season ticket holders, retaining tlje privilege of collecting for himself all money taken in at the doors. This comes independent of other four attrac tions we are yet entitled to for the season. God grant that the time isn’t far distant when our town officers may put a stop to the fearful in roads that are being made upou us in the shape of immoral shows such as we have had encamped in the town for as long as a week at a time. No town ever fully re covers from one of them. I am yours, for the very best for our fine boys and girls, men tally, physically and spiritually. Mrs. A. W. McLARTY, Glim. Lyceum Committee. Mrs- Floyd House entertained the members of the D. I). Club on Thursday of last week in a de lightful manner. The rooms were beautifully de corated in chrysanthemums and pot plants. Instead of playing rook the members sewed during tiie after noon. The hostess served a delicious salad course. Many people have eye de fects of which they are un conscious, and while they suffer no inconvenience or pain now, they should wear glasses for the sake of fu ture eyesight.
