Rev. Glark, the evangelist that Milroy made such extensive preparations for, and who was expected for a three weeks meeting, writes that he has heen taken sick again which would delay his coming until March. This would be quite late in the season as most of the farmers would be busy, so it is quite probable that protracted meeting will be indefinitely postponed at Milroy. Instead an effort will be made to secure a minister for Sundays after Sunday school.

PNEUMONIA FOLLOWS A COLD But never follows the use of Foley’s Honey and Tar, which Checks the cough and expels the cold. M.

ALL MY PIMPLES GONE

Girl Tells How a DSotchy Skin Was Cleansed By a Simple Wash. •*! was ashamed of my fate,” writes Miss Minrie Pie: ard of Altaicrihaw. N. C. “It was all full of pimples and scars. >but after using D. D. D. Prescription I can say that cow there is no sign of that Eczema, and that was three years ago.” D. D. D. has become so famous as a cure and intrant relief in Eczema and all other serious skin diseases, that its value Is sometimes overlooked In clearing up rash, pimples, blackheads, and all other minor forms of skin impurities. The fact Is, that while D. D. D. Is so penetrating that it strikes to the very root of Eczema or any other serious trouble, the soothing Oil of Wintergreen , Thymol and other ingredients are so carefully compounded there is no wash for the skin made that can compare with this great household remedy for every kind of skin trouble. D. D. D. Is pleasant to use, perfectly harmless to the most delicate skin, and absolutely reliable. A 25-cent bottle will give you positive proof of the wonderful effectiveness of this freat remedy. 9

THE GREAT FILIPINO WAR DRAMA, “UNDER THE STARS AND STRIPES."

Being presented at the Ellis Theater, Wednesday, Peb. H, for the benefit of Co. >L

The Japanese Chorus, one of the unique features of “Under the Stars and Stripes."

This great drama was written with a purpose. To present trm jUcture, of tbkjfiardship? and dan-/ gers encountered by our gallant troops in the Philippine Islands. A • aching heart story. Interwoven with hilarious comedy, enveloped in the dreamy atmosphere of the- langub- us Ori«nt renders this historically correct drama unique in every detail. Being produced under the direr* supervision of the author, exclusively for the National Guard of the U. S. A. This great play, with i: realistic and truly accurate features of modern warfare, has been derived by the many cam panics th it have already so successfully presented it. Aside from its undoubted financial value—perhaps its great sr merit lies in its power to stimulate the interest of the enlisted men—its recruiting possibilities, and last but not least, that the public learn through its dramatic qualities of the “real” and patroitts value o. jhe National Guard organization.
