HINES & SNIDER WE SELL .v TIRES An ' advertising proposition was submitted to the Chamber of Com merce by Mr. C. M. Searls for en dorsement and upon Investigation of same by a committee, it was decided that It was unworthy of support. The proposition called for one page of advertising in both the daily and weekly papers for one issue and the same to be printed on an oiled enam eled muslin which was to bo placed in a framo and hung in several busi ness places about town. Space was to be sold for from two and a half to five dollars, ranging threo to four inches single column. The cost of this space depends upon the prosper ity of the community and tho limit which tho traffic will boar. As advertising of this character Is a scheme to make money outside of I ho legitimate channels of advertis ing, it was decided by the committee that the samo should not have the endorsement of tho chnmber. -Merchants are warned not to sub scribe to advertising of this kind. unless the solicitor can show a writ ten statement signed by the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce to the effect that the committee having such matters jn charge approve of samo.

' Colonel Sargent's Tribute In his tribute to the American Le gion dead, Colonel Sargent spoke as follows: "In the realm of the dead there sleep two score or more of Jackson county boys, soldiers und marines and sailors in the greut world war. To them I wish to pay in few words n comrade's tribute. Would that I had the gift to utter in eloquent speech the deep feelings of respect and honor and love in which they are held by their comrades of the American Le gion, so. young! bo dear: lneir souls have made of earth's great war a golden memory. rhese honored dead, sons of this great republic, died for a great cause. For our liberty; for our country; for our ling; tor us, the living, each made the supreme sacrifice. Their rk is done. Beyond the turmoil of the world thev are at rest. j "No more for them shall evening's rose unclose. Her dawn's emblazoned panoplies be spread; Mike, the rain's warm kiss and stabbing snows. Unminded. full upon each hallowed head. 'They cave their lives, with bodies bruised and broken, Upon their eountrys altar they have bled; They have left as' priceless heritage a token That Honor lives forever with the dead." Memorial Address of Day The Ifemoriul address of Ilev K. Sasnett was ns follows: "It is very fitting and proper that we this day forsake our regular pur suits, and pay due homage to our heroic dead. three hundred una fifty-nitre thousand men died in the Civil War as a sacrifice upon th altar of the Union. Many more of their comrades have gone the Ion trail since the surrender of Lea nt Appomattox. Too, there are the noble) women who s"taved bv the Dag at home. "And with their spirits there mingle in fellowship of mutual sacri fice the spirits of those who had a rendezvous with death and fell in the recent war. : " "Surely, these nil had such cause, and fought irght valiantly, We lav garlands -on the graves of this heroic band, scatter flowers on tho water for those whom we call 'the uhknown dead' and gather through out the nation to listen" to fitting eulogies. But these things do not constitute their, real memorial. "Tho true memorial of those in whose honor we are assembled today is not in the flowors we lav upon their craves, nor in the most extend co anil eianorate eulogy or . any orator, but in the great nation and in the liberty of the world, for which things they fought, even to the shed ding of their own blood. "A uuitcd nation united in spirit as well as in geography a nation made up of the greatest people on the planet; this is tho real memo rial to those whose lives constitute the price of the preservation of the union. What Itrought Victory "Tho preservation of the union was the objective of the X'nion Army. And well for the world that this ob jective was attained. It is more than a matter of speculation when we try to imagine what the result of a Con federate victory would have been. It is easv to see the map of the North American continent mnde up of n small United States of America, a Confederacy, and half u ddzen Co lonial possessions under the dominion of foreign powers. In nil probability tlu South American Republic would still be onlv settlements tinder Kuro pean powers, and the Island posses sions under Spanish control. , It was onlv because we were united in spirit that wo were able to turn the tide in the recent World iVnr when the des tiny of the world wus hanging in the balances. It occurs to me that the issues of the world war were not fought on the Western Front in Kurope alone, but that thoso inicstions were decided (10 venrs ago at Appomattox and Gettys burg;. So it is most filtimr that the Grand Armv of the Republic and the American Legion join in the exer cises of this day. 'To the living members of the G. A. Ii., 1 would bring a garland while you are still with us. Let me sav life of our nation since you st.ickcd in behalf ol this front assemblage that nil the events of history in rile arms have onlv served to make us more cognizant of what your sncri- ticc has meant to this erc.it nonlr.

The finest tribute we can pay the re turned service men is to do the worthy thing in aiding them in their efforts to re-establish themselves in nid'iig them in their efforts to re-establish themselves in civil life. If we fail in this duty, no words of eulogy and no amount of flowers on future memorial days will atone for our sin. "There is a practical lesson for us all in the concerns of this dav.

LIFE WAS A MISERY TO HER Says this Woman Until Re lieved by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Carrollton, Ky. "I suffered almost two years with female weakness. I coma not waiK any distance, ride or take any exercise at all without resting. If I swept tho floor or did any kind of work it would bring my sickness on. I was weak and lan guid. liad no energy, and life was a misery to me. I was under the care of a good 'physician for sev eral months and tried otht-r rc-medieB. I had read of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound and decided to try it. After taking twelve bottles I found myself much improved and I took six more. I have never, had any more trouble in that respect since. .
