Crescent, 111., Nov. 16 By
the falling of an aerolite, seven
miles south of Crescent City,
the residence of John Meiners
was partially wrecked and the
neighborhood was panic-stricken.
The meteor came f r o m a

of the house, tearing away part
of the upper story, and buried it
self in the ground.

63 Leonids in 15 minutes. The
display started at 1 o'clock, but
it was three hours later when
the best showing was made.
London, Nov. 16. In Russia
the Leonid display caused a pan
ic in many places. It was be
lieved that the end of the world
had come. Churches were open
all night long, and hundreds of
thousands spent three nights -in
the open air, fearing earth
quakes and a general cataclysm
There are rumors that in some
villages Russian parents mur
dered their children to relieve
them from an expected worse
fate. There was a rather brill

and 5 o'clock Thursday morn

Chamberlain's Pain Balm Cures
Others, Why Not You?
My wife has been using Cham
berlain's Pain Balm, with good
results, for a lame shoulder that
has pained her continually for
nine years. We have tried all
kinds of medicines and doctors
without receiving any benefit
from any of them. One day
we saw an advertisement of
this medicine and thought of
trying it, which we did with
the best of satisfaction. She
has used only one bottle and
her shoulder is almost well.

You may have heard
about SCOTT'S EMULSION

that it is cod-liver oil with
its bad taste and smell and
all its other repulsive fea
tures. It is cod-liver oil, the
purest and the best in the
world, but made so palata
ble that almost everybody
can take it. Nearly all
children like it and ask for
more.

looks like cream; it nour
ishes the wasted body of
the babv. child or adult
better than cream or any
other food in existence. It
"bears about the same rela
tion to other emulsions that
cream does to milk. If you
have had any experience
with other so-called "just as
good'' preparations, you
will find that this is a fact.
The hypophosphites that are
combined with the cod-liver oil
give additional value to it because
they tone up the nervous system
and impart strength to the whole
body.

Some of our cotton mill men

are in favor of expansion, be
cause they say it is to our inter
est to Eelp England maintain
the "opon door" policy in the
East, which will enable us to
find a market for our surplus
cotton goods. They also argue
that it will help the Southern
farmer by increasing the price
of his raw cotton.
We are in favor of helping the
Southern farmer all that is pos
sible But will this policy do it?
Certain we are that we are
leaving the traditions ot the fa
