The Secret of Contentment.

The most contented people are those who abide by the old and tried; the old is so satisfactory that the new cannot offer any inducement for change. Now that is just why Simmons Liver Regula- tor has maintained its popularity these many years, notwithstanding the many limitations and interruptions dealers who have done everything possible to draw the people away from Simmons Liver Regulator The people of the south have too much good sense to turn away from an old friend, especially when the old friend is so far superior to everything that is new. To take Simmons Liver Regulator means long life and happy life. But twill be short life and a mis- erable one to any who allow themselves to be persuaded by dishonest dealers to take any of the limitations or counter feits. Stick to the old friend with the Red 2 on the package, the real simon pure article.

YESTERDAYS FIRES.
Two TwO-Story Cottages Burned on Twenty
 eighth Street--Another Blaze.

Two two-story frame cottages on Twenty-eight street, between Avenues c and D, were totally destroyed by fire shortly after o'clock yesterday after noon. The fire originated in the building at the south end of the row and burned flercely and rapidly until that building had been entirely consumed. The flames spread to the next one, which was unoc- cupied, and had burned 1t almost to the ground, but the firemen proved they could do effective work Adjoining buildings were slightly scorched and some of the furniture more or less dam aged while being removed.
 The house in which the fire originated was occupied by Mrs. Sauls, widow, and her children. None of her furniture was saved.
 The houses belonged to the Elyton Land company and were valued at about $350 each and were partially insured.
 How the fire originated does not seem to be known.
 At the time the alarm was sounded the Northside department was at anoth- CT fire, to which the Southside depart ment had started. Before they reached 1t, however, the alarm from box 135, Ave nue E and Twenty-seventh street, was sent in and the Southside department turned and went to that.
 It was long run and after the arrivas or the laddleS they nau 10 run hne OI hose from Avenue c and Twenty-sixth street, over two blocks. With this they were able to hold the flames in check un- til the arrival of the Northside depart ment, a few minutes later, when m addi- tional stream was turned on from Ave nue and Twenty-sixth street. With the two streams the fire was soon extin- guished.
 The total loss was probably $500 or 5000, with about $400 or $500 insurance
 Another Blaze.
 Just before the alarm sounded from box 135 one was turned in from box 12, corner of Sixth avenue and Twentieth street. Fire was discovered in the tin roof of Dr. A. T. Henley's residence, but was soon put out with little or no dam age.
 The Northside department responded promptly to the alarm and the South side reel was on It's way there when the alarm was turned in from box 135.

The Polk county yourn0i says: THE
PRISON MIRROR. a paper published
by the inmates of the penitentlary
at saltwater, contains an editorial
on the moral and religious training, or
education, as they choose to call it, of
children. Whether they are competent
to speak on such subject may be
matter of opinion, but that many OF
them are reaping the results of such
neglect there can be no doubt. The
instance Of the two boys recently hung
in st. Paul is cited thus: "Take the
case of the two young boys, just enter
ing upon the threshold of mans estate,
who were executed in st. Paul a few
days. ago, and what do we find; simply
that they were ignorant of all that
which goes to make the man, moral
education. 1t is not enough that man
should know how to read and write;
that he should be versed in science; art,
or the many accomplishments that en-
ter into life's employments, but he
should be educated in spiritual things
through which mighty Providence
points out our destiny Parents can
not be too careful as to where thell
children spend their leisure time, and
especially evenings. 1t is only short

Governor J. 2. Clark, at Little Rock.
For many years VIM Bauman has been
employed in the hospital at the prison,
and by his faithfulness has endeared
himself to all connected with the in
stitution, officials and convicts alike,
and will be retained as free man,
under a handsome salary, in the posi-
ton he has so long held as a convict
We trust he will ever continue to hold
the respect and confidence Of his fell
low-men, and convince the Skeptical
that there is some good left in a man

of Arkansas, and especially the officers
OF the prison, have demonstrated their
Willingness to assist the unfortunate
if they but show an inclination to be
worthy of assistance.

opened in st. Paul Wednesday.

The ohio PeRjtenti0Ty Ne1rs says:
"In the ten years that the parole Jaw has
been in operation, nine-hundred and
thirty paroles have been granted, and
only seventy eight of this number have
been violated.
This is certainly a strong endorsement
of the system, and conclusively shows
that a man who has been in prison can
reform and lead an honest upright life
if he but wills to do so.
