Cancer Cured!!

Mr. W. w. Prickett, Smithfield, Ill.,. writes, Sept. 10, 1901: 'I had been suffering several years with a cancer on my face, which gave me great annoyance and unbearable itching. 1 was using Ballard's s Snow Liniment for a sore leg, and through an accident 1 rubbed some of this liniment on the cancer, and it gave me al most instant relief. 1 decided to continue to use the liniment on the cancer. In short time the cancer came out, my face healed up and there is not the slightest scar left. 1 have implicit faith in the merits of this preparation, and it cannot be to highly rec ommended." 25c, 50c, LOO per bottle at pr.

Address of the Club Women.

The following letter is being sent out to the club women of Ar kansas by Miss Sue H. Walker, of Fayetteville, lady manager for the state of the worlds fair direc- tory:
 "To the Club Women of the State.-Having been honored with the position of lady manager for Arkansas at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1903, it is my earnest desire to secure the best exhibit of woman's work to be obtained. The women of our state are not deficient in accom- plishments-many of them are exceptionally talented-and it is only necessary to arouse their state pride and impress upon them the necessity for individual effort and personal interest in this work :, to insure a beautiful display Louisiana Purchase Clubs should be organized in each town, and it has occurred to me that you, the club women of the state, should take the initiative in this. As progressive and representative women, your interest and in- fluence would be most effective. There is no time to lose if we-ex : pect to get up a creditable exhibit. Of course, will do all in my pow CT fSr the success of this uDder- taking, but without the cordial as- sistance of the women of the state my individual efforts will avail but little. I earnestly ask your cooperation, also that of the honorary lady commissioners ap- pointed by Gov. Davis, and hope that the result will be an exhibit of which the whole state will be proud D

to the country and look around.
 Hon. W. R. Phillips made a ringing speech commenting the mayor of Green Forest for de- lending the town against the mis- representations of a Fayetteville correspondent to the Arkansas Democrat. He believed the citi- zens of Green Forest, irrespective of avocations, would work to make the state meeting a success and pleasure to all attending it.
 A. J. Russell was called for and asked to tell something about the meeting at Fayetteville. He mentioned some of the mistakes that would generally be made by those who intended to plant or chards, if they did not first ac- quaint themselves with the sub- ject of horticulture, and he thought no better place to learn could be found than attending horticultural meetings and in the meantime read horticultural pa pers.
 M. w. Pennington of Berryville made very interesting talk on caring for an orchard. He has had considerable fruit experience in both Illinois and Arkansas and there are perhaps but few ques- tions pertaining to fruit raising with which he is not familiar For the most part Mr. Pennington has had charge of pr. w. P. Georges apple orchard since it was set out nine years ago and the success of the orchard alone proves MT. Pennin9 tons ability as a commercial orchardist.
 Isaac Brammer had on exhi- bition a sample of seeding apples that he has on his farm. It is certainly fine apple, splendid flavor and a good keeper. He is anxious to have this variety ex- amined.
 Several short speeches were made in the interest of the society and among other things discuss ed was the planting of a sufficient acreage of tomatoes in order to get a cannery established here. We expect to be able by the next issue to announce the progress of negotiations that are being made to get a cannery located here.

Time to Stop.

An English journal requested a number of it's largest advertisers to give their opinions concerning the right time to stop advertising and the following replies were re- ceived:
 When the population ceases to multiply, and the generations that crowd on after you and never heard of you stop coming on.
 When you have convinced everybody whose life will touch yours that you have better goods and lower prices than they can get anywhere else.
 When others stop making for tunes right in your sight, solely through the direct use of the mighty agent.
 When you forget the words of the shrewdest and most success ful men concerning the main cause of their prosperity.
 When the younger and fresher houses in your line cease starting up and using the trade journals in telling the people how much better they can do for them than you can.
 When you have decided to shut up shop for good.

in a moribund condition for 36O days in each year. Through the rejuvenating influence of new members and money so generous ly subscribed at the last meeting it has taken on a new lease of life.
 Our plain duty is to nurture this new creation-vires vitales sus- tinera.
 The consensus of opinion among the members is that the legislature should be asked to foster this enterprise with an ap- propriation of money.
 Gan we appeal to the legisla- ture successfully by lying supine- ly on our backs, or shall we see to it in the approaching primaries that representatives to the leg islature understand the impor- tance of this matter and let no man be supported who is not pledged to do his full duty to the end that money be voted and the best interests of the state thereby subserved. Then, if deemed nec- essary to send a committee from the society to Little Rock, it's labors would be pleasant and ef- fective.
 The importance of getting the printed proceedings of the Fay etteville meeting before the pub lie at the earliest possible moment is of paramount importance.
 A. c. SMITH.
 Acting upon the suggestion of Dr. Smith in the above letter that THE TRIBUNE be used as the or gan of the society during the coming year, we will state with much pleasure that such an honor would be duly appreciated and that any and all communications from members of the society would gladly be given space. We would also be pleased to make all members of the society a cash-in . advance rate of 50 cents, which is one-half our usual price for our paper for one year.
 If THE TRIBUNE can be of ser- vice to the society in this way, it will be only too glad to do so.

ANOTHER GOOD MEETING.
Local Horticultura1ists in Ses-
 sion Again Last Saturday..

Notwithstanding the continued cold, wintry weather, the Green F )rest Horticultural Society held a very enthusiastic meeting last Saturday. The attendance was good and during the day 21 new members were enrolled. The by laws were amended so as to make ladies eligabIe to full member ship, and a number enrolled their names.
 The following officers for the ensuing year were elected: president, l.. $. Shibley; vice president, w. R. Phillips; secre- tary, E. s. Foreman; treasurer, . J. A. StandIee; executive board, < B. B. Eslinger, Irwin Whitaker, \ J. H. Pucl1ett, c. R. Blasingame , and J. B. Reeves.
 G. A. Atwood, editor Of the < Practical Fruit Grower came, all the way from his home at Spring field, Mo-, to attend this meeting. He had heard a good deal about Green Forest and used this op- portunity to visit. the town. He was called upon to address the society which he did in a most pleasing and intelligent manner. THE TRIBUNE desires to say in in this connection too that Mr. Atwood's paper is all that it's name indicates. 1t is devoted exclusively to the horticultural interests of the southwest, and is we'll worthy of a place in every home in this country. It is pub- lished twice a month.
 Mr. Atwood said Green Forest ought to be proud of the opportu- mites that are now within reach of the people of Carroll county He said there was no reason why Carroll county should not take it's place in the production of ap- pies along side it's two neighbor counties that stand without rival in the world, except two counties in Western New York.
 He was satisfied this vicinity was especially adapted to straw berries and that the work of pro- ducing them should commence this year. He said no one should make the mistake of going in- to the strawberry business ex- clusively, but that each farmer could cultivate from one to three acres and that all together they could produce enough to make car load shipments, that they rarely ever make failure when thoroughly cultivated.
 Speaking of peaches he said it would be 8 mistake to depend on one variety, that he had been informed that the Salway peach would produce it's kind from the seed, that if it was true such a tree would be of great value from the fact that it would better with stand the frosts of winter.
 lie spoke of the effort that was started at the Fay etteville asso- citation to organize the Ozark Apple Growers Association Said such an organization would be indispensable in the handling of immense fruit crops that will be produced six years hence, that while there was no danger of producing more fruit than the markets would demand, yet there must be system of properly dis tribL ting the products to the var ious markets.
 Mir. Atwood's speech was highly enjoyed by the audience and all were pleased to hear him state that he expected to visit Green Forest during the spring

INVITED TO INSPECT HOSPITAL.

1t has often been said that there is nowhere a
people more generous than the people OF this city,
but It remained for j. Pierpont Morgan to give the
most effective proof OF his confidence in that gen.
erosity by building and equpping the new Lying-In
Hospital on Stuyvesant Square The hospital is not
endowed it being the belief OF the governors that
an institution which is supported by the contrbu-
tions OF the people maintains higher standard than
one having an established permanent support
Therefore It rests with New-Yorkers to show
whether they approve of the work and will main
tain it or whether the splendid hospital beauti
full in all its appointments is to close its doors to
needy women II Is not an experiment the people
asked to support, for although its home is new
the charity is very old, having heen founded In
1898 by men whose names well known I'm the
city's history and by its steady growth proving its
value.
The Ladies' Auxiliary. OF which Mrs. William
Pierson Hamilton is president, and which aids the
governors of the hospital in their work met on
Thursday for the first time in the hospital and
after the meeting inspected the building which
is completely equipped and ready for occupancy
One floor is already occupied and there are con
stantly many appcatio that the other wards
be quickly filed soon the funds for their
maintenance provided.
In order that the public may see the hospital and
appreciate the perfection OF its appointments the
governors have directed that II shall be opened
