Decause of its germ destroy- ing properties, this sulphur prepara- tion instantly brings ease from skin irritation, soothes and heals the eczema right up and leaves the skin clear and smooth. #It never fails to relieve the torment and disfigurement. Sufferers from skin trouble should get a little jar of Mentho-Sulphur from any good druggist and use it like a cold cream.

SHIAH CANE BELT FLOODED Eight Alb re Loisiana Towns Face In- undation Through Break in Lei oo. Hamburg, La., May. 16.—The break in the protection levee on Bayou De- glaises, near here, which occurred early today, has widened to 300 feet, and backwater from the bayou and the Red river is sweeping southward through the break into Louisiana’s sugar cane bolt in Avoyelles, Pointe Coupee, St. Landry, St. Martin and Iberville parishes, where it is feared untold damage will result. Water pouring tnrougn tne nreait in the levee, which was built to prevent backwater from the Red river enter- ing the Atchafalaya river basin, is spreading through the southern por- tion of Avoyelles parish, reaching points which have so far been immune from the disastrous floods in the northern portion of the parish, and are pushing on toward the southern parishes, intensifying flood conditions in that vicinity, much of which al- ready was under water from the Fer- riday, La., crevasse which is entering the Atacliafalaya east of here. At least eight towns are expected to be inundated as a result of the break here. The towns of Melville, Plaquevile, Llig Cane, Rosa, Palmetto, Odensburg, Elba and Krotz Springs are in the path of the escaping waters. Stages above all previous high rec- ords for the Atchafalaya river be- tween Simmesport and Melville are predicted by the Weather Bureau to- day. This has caused intensive activ- ity on the part the government and levee officials to be renewed. In Pointo Coupee parish more than 1,700 men began the task of raising the le- vees one foot for a stretch of 11 miles to meet the higher stages forecast within the next six days. Great damage is expected to result from today’s break in the back Teche country in Assumption, Iberia and St. Mary parishes, through unseasonable floods and deposits of silt in the rice plantations.

Y, WEATHER IS FAVORABLE i Crops Are Progressing Fsnorahly in Most Localities. Little Rock, May 16.—Light showers occurred at most stations from the 12 to the 14th, the weekly amounts be- ing less than an inch except at some southeastern stations where they were slightly larger. Temperatures were rather high the fore part of the week, about normal the latter portion, the weekly mean being about 3 degrees a- bove normal. A moderate amount of sunshine was recorded hut much more needed. The light rainfall, was very favorable for planting cotton and corn and for sowing rice, all of which pro- gressed rapidly except in the over- flowed districts in sente eastern sec- tions. Corn made much better pro- gress in northern and western sec- tions than elsewhere due to more fav- orable weather there in past weeks. Chopping and cultivation have begun, although planting is not completed in many portions. Considerable replant- ing is necessary in some localities. Corn made very good progress, espec- ially in northern and western por- tions. It is grassy in most places, but hay and strawberries were damaged by the showers in some localities. Wheat is heading and winter oats are turning in places. Fruit is iu good conditions and berries improving. DENTISTS ! DR. C. E. MAY, DENTIST.

SHIAH CANE BELT FLOODED

Eight Alb re Loisiana Towns Face In-

undation Through Break in Lei oo.

Hamburg, La., May. 16.—The break

in the protection levee on Bayou De-

glaises, near here, which occurred

early today, has widened to 300 feet,

and backwater from the bayou and

the Red river is sweeping southward through the break into Louisiana’s

sugar cane bolt in Avoyelles, Pointe

Coupee, St. Landry, St. Martin and

Iberville parishes, where it is feared

untold damage will result. Water pouring tnrougn tne nreait in

the levee, which was built to prevent backwater from the Red river enter-

ing the Atchafalaya river basin, is

spreading through the southern por- tion of Avoyelles parish, reaching points which have so far been immune from the disastrous floods in the

northern portion of the parish, and

are pushing on toward the southern

parishes, intensifying flood conditions

in that vicinity, much of which al-

ready was under water from the Fer-

riday, La., crevasse which is entering the Atacliafalaya east of here.

At least eight towns are expected to be inundated as a result of the

break here. The towns of Melville, Plaquevile, Llig Cane, Rosa, Palmetto, Odensburg, Elba and Krotz Springs are in the path of the escaping waters.

Stages above all previous high rec-

ords for the Atchafalaya river be-

tween Simmesport and Melville are

predicted by the Weather Bureau to-

day. This has caused intensive activ- ity on the part o£ the government and

levee officials to be renewed. In

Pointo Coupee parish more than 1,700 men began the task of raising the le-

vees one foot for a stretch of 11 miles

to meet the higher stages forecast

within the next six days. Great damage is expected to result

from today’s break in the back Teche

country in Assumption, Iberia and St. Mary parishes, through unseasonable

floods and deposits of silt in the rice

plantations.

says: “Doan’s Kidney Pills did me

more good than any remedy I ever

used. My first symptom of kidney trouble was a pain through my limbs and across my back. I had nervous

spells and was always tired and my

kidneys were not acting right. I us-

ed different remedies for a time with- out relief and finally made up my mind to get Doan's Kidney Pills. I

procured Doan’s and it was not long before they cured me.”

Price 60c at all dealers. Don’t

simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Knox had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

WEATHER IS FAVORABLE i

Crops Are Progressing Fsnorahly in Most Localities.

Little Rock, May 16.—Light showers occurred at most stations from the 12 to the 14th, the weekly amounts be-

ing less than an inch except at some

southeastern stations where they were

slightly larger. Temperatures were

rather high the fore part of the week,

about normal the latter portion, the

weekly mean being about 3 degrees a-

bove normal. A moderate amount of

sunshine was recorded hut much more

needed. The light rainfall, was very favorable for planting cotton and corn

and for sowing rice, all of which pro- gressed rapidly except in the over-

flowed districts in sente eastern sec-

tions. Corn made much better pro- gress in northern and western sec-

tions than elsewhere due to more fav-

orable weather there in past weeks.

Chopping and cultivation have begun, although planting is not completed in

many portions. Considerable replant- ing is necessary in some localities.

Corn made very good progress, espec- ially in northern and western por- tions. It is grassy in most places, but

hay and strawberries were damaged by the showers in some localities. Wheat is heading and winter oats are

turning in places. Fruit is iu good conditions and berries improving.

The great revival at the Methodist church closed last week with splendid success. There were 65 conversions, 38 of whom united with the Methodist church in this city. Much success of the meeting is attributed to the un-

Mellard and the assistance of the not- ed singers from Texarkana who took active part in the singing and devo- tional services. All this along with the prayers and helps of our Christian/ people made this revival without.1 doubt the greatest ever held in Ogden,
