A Mississippi editor per-

just return the compliment

dress; Jimmy needs some
breeches, and so does Kate
and Bess; Pud is on the hog
train and Peggy sick with
grief and, god gosh a mighty,
can't you bring a man relief?
Shell out the nickels, dig up
the dimes, turn 'enl sGose and
whistle and we'll have better
times. There will be fewer
patches on the bosom of our
pants and we'll make a better
paper if we get half a chance.
Don't give us that old story,
long gone to seed, about
taking more papers than the
family wants to read, but
help to feed the printer and
he'll help the town to grow;

ANTi-NEPOTlSM LAW.

The Arkansas School Journal
prints in the current months is
sue the anti-nepotism bill passed
by the recent Legislature and ap-
proved by the governor, giving
the same the following endorse
ment:
"This bill provides that no
school board may elect teachers
who are related to any member Of
the board to the fourth degree of
consanguinity or affinity. The
bill goes into effect about the
middle Of August, so that di-
rectors may still vote for their
kinfolks to serve as teachers for
the ensuing year. This measure
may work a hardship in many
cases, and in others it may do
great good. 1t is a lamentable
fact that too many Of our teach
ers secure their places year after
year, simply because they are re-
lated to some member of the
school board. 1t is time that
teachers rested their case on
broader principles than that of
kinship, and if this bill will give
us better teachers, better direct
ors, and free the school system
from the odor of petty local quar-
rels, it will remain as a towering
monument tC the legislature that
passed it,"

years of age OF he might have
been 8. Nobody could tell by
looking at his face. The only
mark of certainty about the
youthful countenance was the
sure sign that some of his ances-

The little fellow walked hastily
into the office of the warrant
clerk of Recorder F'innegan's 8
court. He did not notice the four
persons standing in line, waiting
to get affidavits made out against
some bothersome relatives, but
the youth pushed through the
crowd and disengaged the atten-

demand:

GUIDE TO HEALTH.
BY JOE BEESwAX,

Never run into debt, not if you
can find anything else to run
into.
Be honest if you can; if you
can't be honest, pray for health.
Marry young, and if you make
a hit, keep cool and don't brag
about it.
Battle thoroly once a week in
softwater, kasteel soap, and avoid
tite boots.
Exercise in open air, but don't
saw wood until va are obliged to.
Laff every time yu feel tickled.
and laff once in a while anyhow.
Eat hash washing days, and be
thankphull if you have to shut
your eyes to do it.
Hold the baby haff the time,
and alwuss start the fire in the
morning and put on the tea
kittle.
Don't jaw back, it only proves
that yu are az big phool az the
other phello.
Never borrow what yu are able
to buy and allwuss have some
things you won't lend,
Never get in hurry; you can
walk a good deal further in a day
than you can run.
Don't sware; it may convince
WI, but it is sure not to convince
others.
If yu have daughters, let your
wife bring them up; If she has
got common sense, she can beat
all yure theories.
Don't drink too much nu cider,
and however mean yu may be,
don't abuse a kow.

MAN TRAVELS A ROCKY ROAD

Poor man this is what one of
them thinks his trials amount to-:
"Man's life is full of crosses
and temptations. He comes into
the world without his copsent and
goes out against his will, and the
trip between is exceedingly
rocky. The rule of contrariness
is one of the important features
of the trip. When he isllittle, the
grown girls kiss him; WI IN he is
grown the little girls Mss him.
If he raises large fanny he is
called a mustard; but if ihe raises
a small check he is called thief
and a fraud and Stunned like a

manager; if he is rich nd is dis
honest; if he is in politics he is
out for pie; if he is out of politics
you can't tell where to place him,
and he is no good to his country;
if he does an act Of charity it is

charity he is an old curmudgeon,
a stingy cuss, and lives for him.

The following very pertinent
observation is made by the Bax.
ter County Citizen: "About the
only benefit people gain by emf
grating from Arkansas to Texas
or the "B. I. T." is that they
learn to work systematically and
persistently. In their new sur
foundings they find that industry
is absolutely necessary to exis-
tence, and after falling into the
habit prosper-just as they woulc
here if they had put forta the
same exertion."

"He has just been in a prize
fight with ma"
"Well, why don't your ma
swear out the warrant against
pa? My boy, you are too young;
you won't fill the bill"
"My ma can't come and she
wanted me to fix it up for her."
"Why could she not come?'
asked the clerk, getting interest
ed in the youngsters story. He
could not imagine why the wife
would not be only too willing to
swear out the warrant.
"My pa and ma they got in
the fight in the kitchen. That is
how it happened. My pa made
a drive for her, but didn't land,
and then my ma she grabbed up
the rolling pin and floored the
old man. She is now sitting on
him, holding him down, and that
is why she couldn't come to swear
against him. She sent me. -

POINTS AND POINTERS.

Teach a horse what you want
him to do and he will always do
it.
Plaster scattered on the stable
floor keeps down bad doors and
purifies the air.
Don't put your horse's feet in
unskilled hands. Good feet are
spoiled by bad shoeing.
You can influence the shape of
a colts legs by keeping the feet
trimmed in proper shape, the
same as you can trim a growing
twig.
Feed your horse as near the
ground as possible; when eating
low down more saliva becomes
mixed with the food, aiding di-
gestion.
Keep your horse feeling good
by proper food and care and he
will more than repay you for the
little extra time you give him.
Have your horses teeth dressed
occasionally; little attention
given to this will prevent a So
called "side- driver" or "puller, 4"
1t prevents sore mouth and as
sists mastication.
Tie your horse so that he can
lie down comfortably at night.
1t is a practice with some grooms
to tie a horse so he can't lie down,
to save work in cleaning him the
