A writer in an exchange. gives
the following simple treatment
for burns: A girl Of eleven
years turned over a gallon Of
boiling liquid on her leg and foot.
When the stocking was removed
the skin came with it and the
pain was intense. I tore a strip
off an old sheet and having put
nearly a pound Of soda on the
limb, wrapped the sheet about it
in such a manner as to exclude
the air, bound it firmly, saturated
it we'll with coal oil, and in fifteen
minutes she sat with her foot in
q chair and joined in the other
children's play. In two days she
was in school again. II never
panied her after it was dressed.

KNOWS DAVIDSON.

Sam H. Davidson is the
choice of Northern Arkansas
for attorney general, and no
better man could be found.
In the days when we were a
small boy and Uncle Davy
Craig edited the Sharp
county Record, Mr.. Davidson
was even then an able man
and after the flight of fifteen
years it is reasonable to sup.
pose that he has added much
to his ability. We remember
two characteristics of the
man that should commend
him to all. He lived almost
a quarter of a mile from the
town spring, but his wife
never had to carry water.
Sam would take the bucket
and march to the spring, not
gruf, but would always
whistle while going for
water. Our memory Of him
is a big, elegantly attired
man with a bucket in his
hand whistling his way up
and down the hill to the
town spring. And if he will
just take up a bucket of
water and march over the
state whistling Dixie as he
whistled it in those days he
would need to do nothing
else to secure the office. For
a man who does not permit
his wife to split wood or
carry water, and can pre-.
serve a good enough humor
to whistle while he does it
himself, will win the vote of
every W oman's husband who
sees him demonstrate the
fact. Hurrah for big.bodied,
large hearted, whistling Sam
