The absolute proof that medicinal iron would help the blood and strengthen people wonderfully has caused many chemist to perfect or less efficient iron tonics and more or less efficient tablets. For most people, however, the writer would say that just plain highly concentrated Acid Iron Mineral is better, far cheaper, and stronger and goes from to six -times as far. A bottle of Acid Iron Mineral, kept handy and a teaspoonful poured in a glass of drinking water after meals, makes a delightful, very unusual and highly beneficial tonic and strengthener, and if the blood needs enriching and purifying it would hard to find anything that does it better or rids the system of Grippe-Spanish Influenza and kindred ailments quicker than just plain concentrated Acid Iron Mineral, which name for a natural iron. It builds up the entire system. It also has a beneficial effect upon appetite and digestion, and the kidneys show effects.

Friday, Oct. 18, 1918 Tuesdays and Fridays LIBERTY LOAN HONOR ROLL LINCOLN HAS DONE HER BIT Lincoln county has done her bit in the sale of Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds and this paper is delighted to tell its readers this, afternoon that she has sold than her quota. She was asked to dispose of 350's worth, but the patriotic citizens of the best county in the State bought bonds several thousand hast. lars in excess of, that amount.

It took some work, but Chairman J. S. H. Shanks and their of Hocker and Assistant Chairman, W. helpers were more than equal to the occasion, and as a result we are "over the top" good and strong.

The West End did her part nicely, the East End exceeded expectations, the South End did all that was asked of her, while Stanford, as usual, outdid herself. Chairman J. S. Hocker said this morning, and by the way, he is about the happiest man in the county: "The Loan has been raised by the cooperation of the good people of the county- -both men and women, and am proud of what we have done. Our.

people have never faltered when asked to do their duty, but this was a big task, and the fact that they more than accomplished the desired end, makes me prouder than ever that I live among them. I attribute the success of the drive to three things, namely: The education of the peonies from speakers; the a platform house-to-house by intel- campaign by both men and women, and last, but not least, to judicious use of the columns of our home paper. I would labed these the 'Big The Lincoln County National Bank's quota of the sum total is approximately First National Bank, National Bank of Hustonville, Peoples Bank of Hustonville, Crab Orchard Banking Waynesburg Deposit Bank, McKinney Deposit Bank of Moreland, $5,800. There may be and likely will be changes in these figures as subscriptions will more than probably come in for a day or so yet. It appears that the sum total of bonds will reach $350,000, nearly $12,000 more than this county was requested to sell.

The Interior Journal congratulates Messrs. Hocker, Shanks and all others who helped to make the drive the great success 1t was and hopes that it has been of some little assistance in the great work that has been done. PAID FOR BOND IN DIMES For three years Miss Alice White, daughter of Isaiah White, of Moreland, played the role of treasurer for her nephew, a little son of and Mrs. George Hunn, who with their children were killed in a collision between their car and a train some six months ago. She held for the little fellow 500 dimes and the other day she put the 500 pieces of money in a Liberty Bond.

is probable that no other bond sold during the present campaign was paid for with as many pieces of. Uncle Sam's money made as this one. Mr. J. L.

McKee Riffe the sale. DR. A. GATLIFF DEAD Dr. A.

Gatliff, one of the richest and biggest men in Eastern Kentucky, is dead after a brief illness, aged 70. He was reared on a and mountain farm, educated himself afterward became interested in the coal business, becoming of the biggest operators in Kentucky. a He was Dr. a staunch democrat and Baptist. took great interest in work and gave large sums to Cumberland College, located in his home town, Williamsburg.

FULL- BLOODED CHOCTAW Among the speakers of prominence who will come to Kentucky to speak for Stanley and the democratic nominees for Congress, is Congressman Charles D. Carter, of Oklahoma, who is a full-blooded Choctaw Indian. The chairman of the campaign committee of this county has written headquarters asking for a speech at Stanford from him. WIFE SOON FOLLOWS HUSBAND On last Tuesday morning John. Ford, a well-known engineer, who runs by Stanford, was buried at Levanon Junction, he having died Sunday of influenza.

NEGRO VOLUNTEER DIES Henry Adams, colored, who volunteered before war was declared, died in the service at New Haven. and his body was brought home for burial at Crab Orchard influenza Thursday. is said was to have years caused his He 26 old and demise.

FARM TAKEN DOWN AT $116 Henry Hudson was not willing to take $116 per acre offered by Frank Martin for his 103 acres of land in the West End, known as the old Pipes place, at public auction Tuesday, and the sale was declared off. A very good crowd was present. NO MORE AUTOLESS SUNDAYS Fuel Administrator Garfield has lifted the ban on gasolineless days, effecive at once. Should stocks again fall dangerously low, it is stated by the Fuel Administration, the request will be renewed. NO SCHOOL NEXT WEEK The Interior Journal is asked to state that there will be no school next week at the Stanford Graded ant High School nor at any of the other school houses of the county.

STANFORD BESTS LANCASTER The foot ball team of the Stanford Graded and High School went to Lancaster Friday and defeated the school team there 6 to 4 at foot ball. NOTICE- LAST CALL I or one of my deputies will be at Kings Mountain and Waynesburg Saturday, Oct. 19th, to take lists. J. N.

Cash, tax assessor. 83-2t THE LATEST WAR NEWS Members of The Stanford Christian Church: Dear Friends: Feeling keenly the loss of the social element. of public worship, you will, am sure, yield graciously to the closing order for the largest measure of good to the greatest number. It is heartening to know that He Whom we worship in the sanctuary is not limited by time or place; that the Bible we read in the meeting house is not chained to the pulpit; that the "fellowship of kindred minds" is not dependent on personal contact but upon the blending of spiritual thought. So may I suggest that the Lord's day a holy day ond not a holiday; tnat it be a time for rekindling the fires of family altars; when once again each household becomes a parish and its head a high priest of spiritual things.

What a fine opportunity for family fellowship and how gladly will we avail ourselves of the privilege! In your meditations, intercessions and conversations some things will have the preeminence. God will be petitioned for a cessation of this epidemic. The large place the church is occupying in the present world order will be cause for thanksgiving; the agencies at work for the amelioration of human suffering, the sustaining of moral force, and the progress. toward world peace taking shape in Red Cross, Y. M.

C. Liberty Loan and Allied Armies will lift your eyes afield. Our Service Flag with- nearly fifty stars will add to your petitions, while perhaps you will find time to write a letter to one of those boys. All this will contribute to your personal enrichment of soul and make the day a glorious gain and not a woeful loss. Sincerely, your minister, HOWARD J.

The constitutionality of the Federal corrupt practice act. as applied to primary elections, will be tested in the United States Supreme Court as an outgrowth of the hearing the republican senatorial primary in Michigan. The deficiency bill carrying $6,345,755,000 for the enlarged war program, was reported to the House by, the Appropriations Committee. It. provides $6,152,062,000 for the army.

$107.217,000 for the navy, and $70.000,000 for family allowances of soldiers and sailors. Paris newspapers applauded President Wilson's reply to Germany. The Temps terms the note straight blow." It is declared that the German government will be forced to allow the publication of the note that it will come as a bombshell to Max, Solf and the kaiser's govern ment. Germany's reply to President Wilson hinges on developments in the internal affairs of the Central Empires and on the Battlefield. This was the view of Washington officias Wednesday.

It was learned that Hindenburg and not Prince Maximilian was the prome mover in the peace offensive, the German military chief declaring the soldiers faced serious shortage of munitions and supplies. Yesterday was an historic day for Belgium. Her troops captured Bruges, her army occupied Ostend, her King and Queen entered this seaport city, while the German forces, reeling under the blows of the allied armies, sought refuge in the outer defenses of Antwerp. The British to the south made further gains, capturing Douai. while the French and Americans, in the foce of intense machine-gun fire, made further advances in Champagne and the region northwest of Verdun.

The inhabitants of Vladivostok greeted President Wilson's reply to Germany's note with cheers and tears of joy. which expressed their suffering yearning for. a free. peacefut Russia. An American transport with the first sunplies from the United States landed yesterday, assuring the Czechs and soldiers of an ample supply of winter clothing from underwear and shoes to overcoats.

Information reached Washington that the Germans have threatened to bombard Constantinople with their Black Sea fleet at the first signs of Turkish defection, and that in Izzet Pasha, the new premier and war minister, they have a friend at court. Hampered by marshes and by mud waist deep, the Allies are meeting with strong resistance from the Bolshevik forces on the Dvina river. The Americans hove displayed great heroism during the campaign against the Red Guards, who are distributing Bolshevik propaganda printed in English among the advancing troops. The drive in. Belgian Flanders continues with rapid advances by the French, British and Belgian forces.

Menin, the important railroad junction, has been captured. Thourout has fallen and the Thourout railroad practically is in the hands of the allied forces. The gains made in this region add a new menace to the German grip on the Belgian coast towns and already it is reported that their armies are being withdrawn. Despite terrific machine-gun' and gas resistance the American troops between the Meuse and the Argonne continued their advance and pierced the Kreimhild line. capturing several wooded heights by surrounding them from left and right and then moppig them up.

How important the Germans regard this sector of the front is indicated by the fact that they are rushing in new troops to its defense and resisting with great bravery. Official Washington regards recent events in Germany and Austria as an attempt by the Central Powers to rearrange their internal affairs so that they will meet the requirements laid down in President Wilson's reply to the latest German peace offer. The Germans in abandoning Cambrai left behind them fiendish devices to mutilate and kill the returning refugees. A British officer, seeing a the street, struck a key. A hidden bomb exploded, tearing off his head.

MR. M. O. VANDEVEER GONE Another of Stanford's old and highly respected citizens has gone the way of. all good.

Mr. M. Owen Van Deveer, aged 76, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. J. C.

Lynn, at 10 o'clock last night. In August he was prostrated with heat and was taken from his store to the home of his daughter and he had never been able to leave there. For many years the deceased had been a member of the Christian church and he was 2 most excellent man in every respect. He was scrupulously honorable in all of his dealings and it could be truly said of him that his word was as good as his bond. He had been a resident of Stanford for the past 20 years, coming from his farm two miles East of Rowland, which he sold to the late S.

H. Shanks. His wife, who was Miss Bettie Broaddus, preceded him to the grave by 26 years, but the following children are left to mourn Joss of the splendid father: Messrs. Owen Van Deveer, of Little Reck, D. W.

VanDeveer, of Richmond; Mrs. J. C. Lynn, of this city, and Miss Blanch VanDeveer, who is teaching at Morganton, N. C.

They were all at his bedside when the end came He was conscious to the last and talked with them until almost the last moment. Mr. VanDeveer was born in Casey county and was one of a family of 14 children, only two of whom survive- Mrs. K. L.

Tanner, of McKinney, and Uriah VanDeveer, of Casey, He came to this county when about 12 years old and had since made it a most excellent citizen. The funeral will be preached at Buffalo Cemetery at 9.45 tomorrow, Saturday morning, by. Dr. H. J.

Brazelton, after which all that is mortal of the good man will be laid away to await the resurrection morn.
