IT is now definitely known that the proposed measure to segre- gate the school taxes of the ne- groes from the whites of the state will be defeated in.the state sen ate as was done by that body in the last two sessions of the leg islature. Twenty mine senators have been heard from on the sub- ject and of that number twenty one say they will vote against the bill. It will require only eighteen votes to defeat it, pro- viding all of the senators are pres- ent and voting. Six senators have not been heard from. Sen ator T. c. lobe introduced the bill in the house four years ago, while he was a member of that body, and again introduced in the senate two years ago. It failed to pass on both occasions. Every senator from Eastern Ark ansas is opposed to the proposed legislation.

GEORGE R. BROWN, secretary of the Little Rock Board of Trade, was in Harrison on Railroad bus- mess last week. Little Rock is deeply in terested in the extension of our railroad to that city in which efforts Harrison will give hearty assistance. Mr. Brown says that Little Rock, if it should lose the St. Louis & North Arkan. sas, will build direct line from that city to Springfield, Mo-, via Harrison. This would suit Har- rison even better than the ex- tension Harrison Republican.

THE man who is honest, pays his debts promptly and without contention, never has any uble securing credit where he is known. A mans credit is about all he has in this world and it be- hooves him to guard it zealously. The man who is always hunting for means and methods by which he can escape paying his honest obligations, never makes much headway in the world and is held in utter contempt by even those of his own ilk.

SCIENTISTS are figuring on sinking 8 shaft twelve mile deep for experimental purposes. It IS estimated that such a hole would cost about S25 ,00O, 900, and require about 85 years to &C., complish it. No man has gone down in the earth's interior be- yond one mile and lived to tell the story. The deepest boring in the crust of the planet is a little over 5000 feet-less than one four -thousanth of the dis tance to the center of the globe.

There is more Cattarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was SUD- posed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro- nounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires con nstitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous sur- faces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circu- lars and testimonials.

Letter to MT. M. M. Butler,
Green Forest, AYk.

Dear Sir: The way to reckon the cost of paint is to put both costs together: the cost of the paint and the cost of putting it on.
 It would save this country hundreds of millions of dollars a year; it would save you alone (if you happen to be a victim) several dollars a year.
 See how it works. It costs as much to put-on one paint as an- other, don't it? Yes, if you use the same number of gallons.
 Well, don't I?
 No, you'll use twice as many gallons of adulterated paint as of Devoe; and you've got to pay twice as much for putting it on. MT. N. Avery, Delhi, N. Y., has two houses alike and in same condition. Painted one house with Deyoe: 6 gallons. Painted the othes house with a paint that was half adulteration: 12 gallons. Same painter, Geo. Gilbert, did both jobs, one cost S27; the other S54.
 Better go by the name.
 Yours truly

Simple Treatment All That Was Nee

Undoubtedly the American In
dian in his primeyal state was a
tine specimen OF physical man
hood. ijr. K. j. keinpt, who has
made u careful investigation into
frontier history, says the Kansas
City Star, has found out that be.
fore the Indians were contain.
mated by the white race they
never were afflicted with small.
pox, measles, tuberculosis, gout,
scuryy, insanity, nervous discusses
nor any other OF the ills and blood
affections which have in late years
made such terrible inroads upon
the numbers and vitality Of the
red men Of this country.
The only bodily Affections which
DIR. Kempf reports to the Medical
Record that he found among the
aborigines were feyers and dis.
eases produced by cold, such az.
plenrisy, pneumonia, rheumatism,.
dysentery and wounds from acci-
dents or battle. Naturally the
remedies of the Indians were sim
pie and few in number. Whensick
an Indian refused all kinds OF
stimulating ailments. bat drank
profuseiy OF cold water. In addi
ton to this. in proper cases. the
Indians resortsd to sweating.
purging, vomiting and bleeding.
and finally, whom all remedies
seemed to be Intellectual, the med.
icine man was called in to try his
amulets and incantations on the
patient.
These methods Of cure are still
resorted to among blanket Indi-
ans who are removed from the in
fiuences OF civilization. but b.
fore We smile or condemn these
practices we should consider our
own history. 1t was only a few
generations ago that our ideas of
medicine were almost as crude as
those Of the Indians, The more in
telligent of the white people then,
OF course, did not resort to magic
and incantations. but the concoc-
tions they manufactured to cure
diseases almost pass belief.

Carry Great Loads Of Ore from the
esp Shafts Upon Their
Backs -

Perhaps the greatest weights
borne for any distance on mems
backs are the loads of ore brought
up from the mines of the Andes
by the miners of Chill. Darwin
visited copper mine in rayinr
leading from the main range Of
the Cordilleras, where the work
was carried on b.r such primitive
means that, though the mines
had been worked in the noun.
tains for atleast two centuries,
the water was removed in some by
carrying it up shafts in leather
bags on mems backs.
Sir Francis Head, when visiting
q similar mine found that all the
ore was carried up to the surface,
vertical climb of 450 feet. by the
miners, and that the average
weight carried was ESQ pounds.
This load was not carried up L
winding stair, but up notched
trunks Of trees. set almost up-
right, orc touching another.

Coffee is an excellent fumi-
CANT, and one whose pungent odor
vanishes more quickly than those
in ordinary use" states Prof. Mar
rus |. Epstein, reports the St.
Louis Globe e-Democrat. NO mat
ter what the disagreeable odor in
the apartment may be, the coffee
not only drives 1t out, but absorbs
1t, decomposes it, one might say.
and replaces il with the healthy
Odor OF coffee, which cannot be dis
agreeable to even the most sensi.
tive.
"A proof of the fact that coffee
actually absorbs the other odor is
found when the coffee is first
burnt. If it simply drove the
other odor from the room, the
smell of coffee around the stove
would be very strong, but it can
hardly be noticed for some min
utes and then appears generally
In all portions Of the place being
fumigated. To use coffee as a
fumigant, quantity must be
crushed and placed on the top of n
very hot stove and allowed to
burn either directly on the stove
lids or in a receptacle provided for
the purpose. 1t destroys all odors
effectually, and its own odor will
vanish In one-fifth the time il
takes to get rid OF sulphur. Fur
thermorc. cne may move about In
the room at will without suffer
ing any inconvenience. 4 test of
the utility of burning coffee for
this purpose was recently made.
"A quantity of meat in very
bad condition was placed in
room and allowed to remain
there, with the doors and win
dows closed. for some hours.
When the room was opened the
Odor was such that none could en-.
ter without protecting their nos
trils. but o quarter of Il pound of
coffee poured on the stove caused
II to vanish completely in less
than five minutes. and three min
utes later the coffee odor had dis
appeared and the atmosphere was
fresh and sweet.
