City Taxes Now Due.
Notice is hereby given that
taxes of the City of Meridian
year 1921 are now due. Office at |
Meridian Hardware Co. C. A. Bar-
ker, City Tax Collector. advlStf I
Court has decided to employ a farm
and home demonstrator for Bosque j
County, and this is alright if we
knew what the seasons would be, but I
until we know this no fixed rule of
farming will work. Men know that
it takes water to make vegetation of
all kinds grow and produce fruit. If
we knew when the rain would fall
and how much, then a certain rule
could be successfully used and far-
mers would know when to plow and
when to plant, and whether to plow J
deep or shallow, but as the seasons
are, the successful farmer works ac- |
cordingly. Until we find a quality
of farm pjoduct that will grow and
produce with but little rain, the far-
mer must work to the season, for he
cannot bring the season to suit hisj
convenience.
H. B. Strong and Dr. A. L. Breeding I
have returned from Mexia where they
have been for five or six days making
an inspection of the place and sur-
roundings, the result of which was!
they are investing and will perhaps
make that their homes in the near fu-
ture. H. B. Strong and P. S. Nolen,!
his father-in-law, are erecting a hotel I
at Mexia, and will have it ready for
use the last of this week or early next I
week. Mr. Strong and wife expect
to get off Thursday of this week, and
Dr. Breeding at once, but may be next J
week. H. B. Strong is not moving all
his effects now, but says It is possi-
ble that he will later on.
Before you're a day older
you want to let the idea slip
under your hat that this
is the open season to start
something with a joy'us
jimmy pipe —and some
Prince Albert! .
Because, a jjipe packed
with Prince Albert satisfies
a man as he was never satis-
fied before—and keeps him
satisfied! And, you can
prove it! Why —P. A.'s
flavor and fragrance and
coolness and its freedom
from bite and parch (cut
out by our exclusive pat-
ented process) are a reve-
lation to the man who never
could get acquainted with a
pipe! P. A. has made a
pipe a thing of joy to four
men where one was smoked
before!
Ever roll up a cigarette
with Prince Albert? Man,
man— but you've got a
party coming your way!
Talk about a cigarette
smoke; we tell you it's a
peach!

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be €ured
iiy local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in-
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im-
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless thfc
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur-
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrha; Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir-
culars free. All Druggists. 75c.

Public School Opened.
The Iredell Independent Public
School opened Monday with a good
attendances A very nice progi(am
was carried out which seemed to be
interesting and entertaining to the
large crowd present. The exercises
consisted of scripture reading and
prayer followed by music both vocal
and instrumental. Several talks were
made and among them was one made
by Mrs. Daisy Bible, County Superin-
tendent. The opening was very en-
couraging, as much so as any we
have had in the past, that we have
attended. The prospect is good for
a fine school and if the faculty gets
the co-operation they should have our
fondest hopes will not be disappoint-
ed. The faculty we think a good one,
well equiped for the work they have
in charge. No member of the facul-
ty is a stranger here, they all having
taught here or near here, and are
well known. We have a good school
building well equipped with up-to-date
fixtures, and we have well equipped
teachers for each room and all that
is needed now is the proper co-opera-
tion of the patrons to make Iredell
school all we could wish. We must
not fail to mention that we have a
splendid board of trustees.
