The Cotton Farmer Should Be Kin?
Make cotton your servant, and
not your master. Cousider your
self king and not tbe crop. Apd
tlie one way to do this is to have
rotation and diversi6cation. Join
tbe great corfi-raising revival.
Build up your land with legumes
ajjd stible manures. Don't put a
pou'qd of cottonseed meal in the
ground, but use this king of cattle
feeds for feeding livestock. "Cot
ton, corn an 4 cattle" —these three
C's should be the slogan of the
South; and while this mayor may
not mean that cotton as a crop will
be king, it doeis mean that the cot
ton farmery —able to grow all other
crops men grow anywhere,
and with a monopoly of the world's
cotton supply in addition—will in
deed be the kings among all farm

For Catarrh
Medicine Free in Every
Case Where It Fails
to Relieve '
Neglect or pessimism, we believe,
is the greatest enetny tilt public has
to contend with when applied to the
loss or recovery of health. Prac
tically every case of consumption
might have been cured if hope had
been maintained and proper treat
ment had bten resorted to at the
symptom of the disease. Un
til the advanced stage is reached
consumption is curable. Catarrh
is responsible, we believe, for many
cases of consumption. It is about
catarrh we want to talk to you to
day, incidentally consumption,
since the two a r eso closely allied.
We have a medicine made from
a prescription of one of the most
successful catarrh specials known.
We believe it i» positively without
an eyual. We are so satisfied that
we are right, that we will supply
the medicine free in every instance
where it used according to direc
tions for a reasonable length of
time, should it f iil to give satis
faction in every particular. We
want every one to try thta medicine
at our risk. There are IJO condi
tions attached to our offer. We
put the user under no obligation to
us whatever.
The medicine we want yo'J to
try is Rexall Mucu Tone. It is a
catarrh remedy that goes right to
tljeseat of trouble. It is carried
by the blood to every part of the
system. It purifies and enriches
the blood, tones up tiie mucous
Cells, aud brings about a condition
of health and strength that tends to
prevent the germs of consumption
from getting a start. Besides this,
Kexall Mucu Tone is a wonderful
appetizer, digestive aid and flesh
builder. Its good effects are often
Jfclt from the very fir-t dose. It is
one of the largest auddmost satis
factory s ll.ng medicines that we
have ever had anything to do with
We know So much of the great
good that it has done that we per
sonally back it up with our reputa
tion and money, whicb fact should
be ample guarantee to satisfy any
body. Rexall Mucu-Tone comes
in two sizes, *SO Cents and 00'
We urge yon to try it, Remember
you can obtain Rexall Remecjies in

ing hand whenever he, could. # He
had never connected himself with
any religious body but professed
faith in the doctrines of the Primi
tive Baptist Church. For long
years he had been a member of the
Masonic fraternity.
The funeral services 'were con
ducted by Elder M. T. Lawrence,
and a large body of Masons buried
him with all the honors of a
worthy.Craftsman. V

MANY SUDDEN DEATHS
From Poisonous Rheumatism
Rheumatism ha-> for years been,
regarded as an exceeding, painful
disease but it has only been dis
covered within the last few years
that it is this terrible trouble that
is eijher directly or indirectly caus
ing thousands of deaths yearly,
throughout our country. Rheu
matism of the Heart, 1 Neuralgia of
the Heart, Paralysis, Uric Acid
Poisoning are among the most dan
gerous forms of the disease. If
UrieAcid is allowed to stay in ,the
system sudden death can scarcely
be averted, but if any sufferer will
go at once to C. I). Carstarphen &
Co. and get a bottle of " Bloodine', (
the guaranteed- remedy for rheu
matism, they will positively be cur
ed. Bloodine in large bottles cost
50 cents. In old chronic cases
where there is acute pains,
"Bloodine Rheumatic Liniment"
should be used with "Bloodine."
