DR.. Horine's Skill.

Mrs. Geo. G. Stallings, of rural route
4, has been suffering intensely from
corneal ulceration-both eyes being
involved. The unusual size of one OF
the ulcers and the position of another,
immediately over the pupil, greatly en-
dangered the sight, but by the prompt
and energetic treatment of our eminent
specialist, DR.. HORNE, and the patti
ent's faithful adherence to his advice,
she has greatly improved, and is now
considered en- route to complete re-
covery.

Americus passes through the sixth

no prostrations were reported here
they were to have been expected. A
colored woman was overcome on Jack

soon revived. People compelled to
work in the sun are fairly dazed by the

Is likely to result. Rarely has Ameri-

MOI Dy a D-d Sight.

If a bill introduced in the Kan
sas legislature becomes law the
cd bachelors and old maids Of
that state will be compelled to
contribute substantially to the
revenues of the Sunflower state.
One Senator Campbell has intro
dnced bill that provides for a
tax on unmarried men over 80
years old and on unmarried wo-
men over %. Bachelors will be
required to pay $50 the first year
after the passage Of the bill and
old maids So, and the amount is
to be doubled for each succee ling
year that they remain single. The
proceeds of the tax are to be used
to pay rewards to fathers Of more
than six children. 1t seems from
this that all the fools are not in
the Arkansas legislature, after
all.-Newark Journal.

"The members Of the Arkansas
legislature should remember the
fact that Missouri has a game
law which effectually shuts our
hunters out of that state" re-
marked a Little Rock sportsman
to a Democrat reporter today.
"We should retaliate. We can
not 60 into Missouri to hunt, but
they can ard do send thousands
of men into Arkansas every year
and slaugl ter our game by the
wholesale. Tennessee also pro-
tects its game from residents,
but Arkansas permits the pot
hunter to override us at will. A
law should be passed prohibiting
resident hunters from trans
porting, shipping or carrying
game out of the state in any
manner. ."-Arkansas Democrat.

There is great deal of activity

be one of the most important

A Pathetic Story.

A pathetic letter was recently
written to the editor Of the Chica-
60 Tribune by a broken hearted
mother. In this letter this wo-
man wrote: 81 forgot my sta
ton in life and came to Chicago
to spend a day with my son. He
had forgotten me or tried to for
get me. He sent me from mis-
office with his office boy to dine.
He promised to meet us; came
late and reprOved me- because I
had not chosen a more secluded
seat. He tried to hide when he
saw any of his friends, IIs re-
proved me for looking around.
Finally he said: Mother, il you
had not come | could have gone
to the opera" | left him then
and am now writing from the
restroom Of a store, tired out and
sick. | am going back to the
farm. | cannot forget the boy
who wore jeans clothes, but the

wants to forget his mother. F"
There is in the makeup Of a man
something decidedly out of gear

woman who gave him birth. The

mother" although he may not
know it, is making rapid strides
