Heart Failure
Of the many deaths from heart
failure very few realize in advance
the seriousness of their condition.
When the heart shows a weakness,
such as palpitation, short breath,
pain in chest and in side, it needs
attention just as much as other
organs do when they fail to do their
work well. For any condition of
heart trouble you can rely on
Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy.
It will strengthen and regulate the
heart action, and enable it to over
come tHe strain upon its weakened
co!idition.
«} had heart trouble. My son in
duced me to try Dr. Miles’ Heart Rem
edy. I took in all four bottles for a
complete cure.”’
MRS. M. E. MARVIN, Marion, Ind.
The first bottle will benefit; if not,
your druggist will return your money.

Band of Creeks and Half-Breeds
Cause Trouble in Oklahoma.
State Troops Ordered Qut---Band’ of
Outlaws Will Be Exterminated if
They Refuse to Surrender.
OXklahoma City, Okla~ln a pitched
battle at Hickory Ground between a
posse of five officers and twenty Creek
Indians of the Snake clan, Officers Ed
ward Daum of Checoteh and Herman
Odom of Checotah were Kkilled, and
Frank Swift of Muskogee fatally
wounded,
The posse of officers went to the
home of Chitti Harjo, chief of the
Snake clan of the Creek Indians, to
serve a warrant on him,
The officers, having heard that the
Indians and negroes were peaceable,
approached the cabin of Harjo, near
Hickory Ground, without fear of any
trouble. As they were in the act of
entering the chief's yard twenty guns
were leveled upon them from as many
men in the house and around the cor
ners; and the battle was on.
Oklahoma City, Okla.—(Later.)—
Chief Crazy Snake and 100 followers
retreated before five companies of
Oklahoma militia, thus deferring an
expected battle,
Hastily =etting fire to his tepees
and tents, the Indian leader, with his
mixed company of redskins and ne
groes, fled from his blazing camp as
the troops advanced. He took up a
strong position between the North
Canadian river and Deep Fork creek,
about 7 miles east of Henryetta.
Crazy Snake and his braves will
be offered a chance to surrender.
The militia officers believe Crazy
Snake wants to reach the Tiger moun
tains with his followers before en
gaging in a general fight. That the
old chief is striving to stir the Creeks
to an uprising, and strike for what
he conceives to be his duty, was evi
dent from the smoke from three sig
nal fires on adjacent hills just before
sundown. Old-time frontiersmen de
clare this is a sign which always ush
ers in Indian troubles.

“jg¢" and want It badly, ‘

BLACKS TUKNING WRITE.
Interesting Lecture Delivered in Lon
dcn on Changing of Colors,
} London, England.—Protessor Karl
Pearson, in a lecture at the Roje.l
Institution, made the startling sug
‘gestion that it was scientifically pos
‘sible that existing white races are
‘descended from a dark-skinned peo
'ple of the negro type.
. He was lecturing on *“Albinism in
'Man,” and in one of his demonstra
uons he snowed on a screen a number
of “piebald cases.” In one instance
he showed the painted cast of a pied
baby, the head and wupper part of
whnich was black, and the rest of the
bedy white,
“A charming baby!” remarked the
professor, “though I should say its
mother was rather surprised!”
Certain negroes, continued the lec
turer, had gradually turned white in
places, This was what was known as
leucoderma. In such cases there was
1o pain whatever. The ordinary view
‘ot the medical profession was that
‘ilt was a disease acquired during life;
but he doubted that view,
Not only, he argued, was the pie
bald condition inherited, but cases
of “going white” were also inherited.
In many instances, the father, chil
dren and grandchildren turned white.
Among the curious representations
thrown on the screen was that of a
mother, son and daughter, all with a
white patch on their heads. A few
years ago, continued Professor Pear
son, there were three sister on the
music hall stage., They were known
as “The Three Striped Graces,” and
each of them had a white patch on
her head. They used to perform ac
robatic feats.
Often, added the professor, as the
white came as a variation on the
dark skin, he could find no case of
a copper or black child being born
to white parents. He showed on the
screen one white after another born
to the negro race. One case was a
negress, with a perfectly white child;
another was a case of a black mother
with a white baby. A third case was
that of a white Zulu,.
TWENTY LIVES LOST.
Nicaraguan Ship Kearsarge Reported
Lost. -
New Orleans, La.—A special to the
Times-Democrat from Bluefields, Nic
aragua, gives the details of the losn
of the sloop Kearsarge, between Mon
kev Point and Greytown Nicaragua.
The report states that twenty peo
ple perished when the boat went
down. The captain, cook, two sailors
and five passengers succeeded in
reaching the shore in a small boat.
The Kearsarge was a small boat of
about 225 tons. It went to Bluefields
from St. Andrew’s Island with a car
go of cocoanuts, and took on twenty
five passengers at Bluefields, it is stat
ed, bound for Bocas del Toro, Colon
and Jamaica.
DEATH WON RACE.
New Yerk Banker Tried to Reach
Chicago Before His Mother Died.
Chicago, Ill.—Frank L. Vanderlip,
president of the National City Bank,
of New York, broke all American rail
road records, in an effort to reach
the bedside of his dying mother here,
but he lost the race with death by
exactly. 28 minutes.
Mr. Vanderlip, in a special train,
covered the distance from New York
to Englewood, a suburb of this city,
in 15 hours and 5 minutes, and when
he leaped madly from the train he
was met with the announcement that
his mother, Mrs. Charlotte L. Vander
lip, had died at 2:30.
NO Cbjection to Davis’ Picture.
Washington, D. C.—lt is believed

who was president of the confederacy.

MaKking More Money Out of
Cotton Crops
is merely a question of using enough of the right
kind of fertilizers.
Virginia-Caroli
irginia-Carolina
Fertilizers
are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study
your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you.
See what Mr. W. C. Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
“I planted about 30 acres of some ‘gray sandy land’ that had been in
cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro
lina Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather 30 bales from
the 30 acres.” Thisis why we say it is the right kind. We have
hundreds of letters like this, and even stronger, in praise of Virginia-
Carolina Fertilizer for cotton.
Get a copy of the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers’ Year Book
from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy
will be sent you free. It contains pictures of the capitols of all the
Southern States.
