Nervous Headaches A Tumor Like a Scrofulous Bunch on the Back Painful and Trou blesome How It Was Cured. "My first trouble began with nervous headaches which would last for two or three days. The doctors could not do anything for me, and advised a change of location.

At the age of 55 a tumor formed on my spine, which was very painful but did not rise or discharge. The doctor thought best to cut it out, but I objected It (finally broke and discharged a great deal. The doctors said they could do nothing for it. I received no benefit at the Springs which I visited, and the tumor finally began to rise inwardly and discharge. Seeing an advertisement of Hood's Sarsaparilla I thought i would try it.

Before I had finished taking one bottle I found I was much relieved, and when I had taken two bottles the rising began to break inwardly. I continued the use of Hood's Sarsaparilla and after I had taken 12 bottles I was entirely cured." W. D. Fore, Gilliam, Missouri. You can get Hood's Sarsaparilla at all druggists, six for f5.

lhe ignorance, carelessness or forgetfulness of the managing com mittee of church festivals and entertainments in rural districts is very disgusting. It is very disagreeable for a man who has been correspond ent 01 tne leading county paper for over a year to have to explain his position, and, so to speak, to fight his way in every time something is on the "tapis." The fact is last sight of (if it ever occurred to them) that such gatherings can be written up two different ways, and it is policy to treat the reporter well and appease his hunger with the best they can set before him. Show and theatrical peo pie nave sense enough to see the im portance of this. But it is hard to make it clear to church committees. Salisbury Scribblings.

Vandiver's. Sheriff J. R. Dempsey went up to Kansas City, Wednesday afternoon, to locate and bring back Oscar Lewis, who is wanted as a witness in the circuit court at Salisbury in the case of the state against Virgil Williams, is charged with stealing a watch and chain from James M. Lucas at Keytesville station some two or three months ago.

Oscar Lewis and James M. Lucas are the only two witnesses the state has, and as Lucas is now. somewhere in Kansas it is important that Lewis be on hand to testify on behalf of the state. Williams, the defendant, hails from Trenton, and his physical being has dwindled to a mere shadow since he has been in jail. He has already been severely punished, and it seems a pity that the poor fellow is not turned loose, still Prosecuting Attorney Collet has a duty to perform, and he is not to blame for putting forth his best efforts to convict Williams of the crime with which he is charged..
