THE MICE RATE GROWS Fact Established by Government

Investigation,

WEST HAS MOST DECREES

.\lin<»«.t a Million S<'|uirations in the I«ist Twenty Y «niis, an Increase of Two Hundred Per C'tnt. Over Number in Preceding Two Decades

The census bureau has published a comprehensive report on marriage and divorces. The investigation of the subject was undertaken by direction of congress and grew out of a conference in Washington by representatives of various religious denominations. The investigation has extended over a period of nearly five

years.

Statistics for Twenty Years. The statistics cover a period from 1887 to the end of 1906, and the total number of marriages recorded was 12,832,(144. The investigation showed that in the twenty years covered the number of divorces granted was 945.623. In the twenty years from 1S67 to t'tse the number was about 328,716, hardly more than ont-third of the nuber recordded in the second twenty years. The report says that each successive five year period since 1867 has witnessed a marked increase in the number *f divorces. The report content that it is a well established fact that the marriage rate is quietky responsive to changes in economic conditions, increasing n periods of prosperity and decreasing after a commercial crisis or panic during hard times, and that especially noteworthy is the small increase shown for the year 1892 and the actual decrease in the succeeding year. Mor<* Divorces in Western States. The report says that the percentage of marriages is higher in the south than in the north and that outside the soueh the highest percentage prevails in the middle wert. In the south Atlantic group of states the rate was 350 marriages per 10,000 of adult unmarried population against 260 in the north Atlantic states and 436 in the south centra] as against 322 in the north central and 273 per 10,000 ault unmarried population in the western group of states. The rate for the north central division. 108 was almost two and twothird times that for the north Atlantic, while that for the south central, 118, was two and two-third times that for the south Atlantic. Broadly speaking the divorce rate increases as one goes westward.

CLAY TALKING COURT HOULE

Neighbor County Growing Restless as She Watches New Building Going up on All Sides Even in Owen County.

SHAME PINCHES THE FARMERS

Talk of a new court house for Clay county is being revived and it is believed that before long the commissioners and county council will take action looking t the construction of a modern county building. The county is in a splendid financial condition and it would require a very small advance in the taxes to raise sufficient money to put up a modern building that would be a cerdit to the county. The present court house is in a dilapidated eonditlon and has been declared unsafe by experts and should have been supplanted by a new building years ago. The commissioners realize that need of a new building, hut will hardly act until petitioned to do so It will only require a litlte hustling on the part of those who are Interested and believe that a new building should be put up to get the preliminary work started which will result in securing the building. Owen county lias IrR the contract for a new court house and within the next year will have the building completed. Those who ae familiar with the old building realize that the new one will be completed before it is needed as the old structure was one of the land marks of the county.—Brazil Times.

An aching back is instantly relieved by an application of

Sloan’s Liniment.

This liniment takes the place of massage and is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates — without rubbing — through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone, quickens the blood, relieves congestion, and gives permanent as well as temporary relief. Here’s the Proof. Mr. .IAMFS C. I.EK, of tlllO Oth St., K K.,\VasUiM|;t«n, D.C., w rites : “Thirty years ago I toll from a scaffold amt seriously injured my hack. I suffered tet riMy tit times ; from the small of my hack all aronnd my stomach was just its if I had been beaten with a club, i used every plaster I could got «itli no relief. Sloan's Liniment took the pain right out, and I can now do a* much ladder work as any man in the shop, thanks to Sloan’s Liniment Mr. J. P. Evavs, of Mt. Airy. On., says: “After being afflicted for three ears with rheumatism, l used Sloan's .Ininieiit, and was cured sound and Well, and am glad to say I haren’t been troubled with rheumatism since. My leg was badly swollen from my hip to my knee. One-half a buttle took the pain and swelling out.” Sloan’s Liniment has no equal as a remedy for Rheumatism, Neuralgia or any pain or stiffness in the muscles or pints.
