THE new anti trust law of Arkansas
continues to be the subject of concern
among all classes of people. A new
feature of the far-reaching effect of the

''any thing" Labor being defined as "a
thing" all unions or declarations for the
purpose of mutual protection and the
keeping up of n standard of wages
come under the ban of the antitrust
law

tie of wine as bases Upon which to draw

tie of wine as bases upon which to draw
his conclusions.
In the brief investigation possible IN
three weeks time he finds that a man
drinks during the summer season of three
months the equivalent of a bottle of wine
six times his size. or in one month, Il
bottle of wine twice his size; in two weeks
q bottle his own size.
To put it differently, if a man We're
given a bottle of Wine o the first day
of July exactly his OWL size, and were al
lowed to drink OF it freely and entirely,
it would all be gone on the 14th day Of
July.
Wine is used figuratively as a basis OF
computation. The same estimate would
apply to beer and other drinks. except
whisky, which could scarcely be taken in
such a wholesale way.
OF the new drinks which man is invited
to take into his system thiss uume tn re
can be mentioned the spanish" wines,
which can be made at home out of fresh
peaches, sugar and cherry juice. The
whole is mixed and we'll iced. The taste
is rich and oriental.
An excellent drink. and a less expensive
one, a drink which can be taken in great
quantities with beneficial results, is rhu-
barb Wine. To make it you stew the fresh
rhubarb until all the syrup is extracted.
This is stirred in a pitcher with minced
pineapple and the juice Of q lemon. the
proportion being two-thirds of lhubarb
juice to enc of lemon. This is sWeetenet
and iced. The ice is powdered and q glass
is filled with it before the syrup is add
ed. This gives a very refreshing summer
drink.
A drink which will appeal to the sum-
mer evening thirst is made by cutting
an orange into a glass: a peach follows
the orange. then come three cherries. cut
in half, and a plum. In fact. any fruit
is acceptable. Fill the glass half full
and cover the fruit with claret. Fill the
glass with settler, and the drink is ready.
Sugar may be added to taste, but men,
as a rule. prefer the straight drink-loily-
pop, they call it in the south.
But IL statistician says that whatever
the drink, and however he may take 1t.
whether by the glass or through a straw,
the summer man will most certainly con-
sumo six times his weight in cold drinks.
