are }, today mainly through the skilled and untiring work of these real estate and immigration agents.
 In all these modern, wide-a- wake and prosperous cities and towns the real estate agents are appreciated and honored and their business protected and re- spected by their citizens.
 1t IS no more right and honor- able for person engaged in other business to interfere with the patrons or prospective buyers oI a real estate agent or trv to run in and take his client from him than it would be for one grocery or dry goods merchant to enter the store of another and try to keep his customers at the counter from buying from his competitor.
 As it would be out of the oues- ton, dlshonorable, and outrage oua for people to go into stores and drum customers away and keep them from buying from our merchants, what is the reason it IS not just the same in principle for people to run after and try to keep prospective buyers from dealing with respectable and honorable real estate agent?
 Yet people, perhaps un- thoughtedly, do the latter most every day. As a person there- fore would go to a dentist for treatment of their teeth and to a reputable praoticing physician for treatment for other ailments of the body, and to grocery stores for groceries, so should the real estate broker be consulted in the matter of buying and selling lands, houses, lots, etc.
 The real estate broker studies his business and by con- stant practice and experience can succeed in bringing buyer and seller together to better ad- vantage and quicker, as a rule, than could the grocery man or any one else.
 The "deal knocker" is not al- ways 8 bad man at heart. Sometimes he "butts in" with no intention of doing wrong or work ing an injustice or hardship upon the real estate broker. He sees a prospective buyer in. charge ofa real estate man, who has spent his time and money getting him here, and forgetting everything in his great desire to sell the man his own property, he does not hesitate to offer the stranger something better as he thinks and thus takes away the real estate mans "hard earned" client.

WRITE DISAPPOINTING,
The Springfield Leadcr- Demo- crat'S Notice of Green Forest.

The Springfield Leader Demo
 crat's Notice of Green Forest.
 It appears that the business firms of Green Forest that con. tributed S5 each for a page write up of the town and their business eS in last Saturdays Springfield Leader Democrat have reason able grounds for suspicioning that they have been faked.
 The "write up" of the town principally consisted of a rehash of Whitaker 6 Vests real estate folder, while it was made to ap. pear that the ten firms who "coughed up'' S5 each in ad- vance constituted all the business and enterprise of the community.
 The article bears no evidence of care in preparation or of hayi g been proof read, but thatsis not the worst of it. It is probable that the thousand copies furnish ed the subscribers here constitut- ed the sum and total of the num- Der of papers ill which the Sswrite- up" was printed. The article was conspicuously absent in the copy of the regular edition of that day that was received by THE TRIBUNE. Instead there was d similar blow up for Eureka Springs and few fellows who santied" to the Leader Demo- crat agent, who also ''did" that town while in this portion of the country. 1t is quite probable that number of other towns were served in the same edition. The change of a page was only necessary to meet all the de- mands.
 Presumably because THE TRIB- UNE did not lend the enterprise it's support or indorsement, the Leader Democrats article mod estly suggests that Green Forest among other things needs an other newspaper. The sugges- ton may be we'll timed, but thero is no doubt but that a 5-dollar bill would have cut it out and per- mitted us to enjoy some of the taffy the agent showed at us when he called on us and voluntarily expressed his delight at finding one of the most up-to date and finely equipped country news paper offices he had seen in all or his travels.
 THE TRIBUNE finds no fault with the firms who patronized the Leader Democrats scheme. Had they not been of the enter prising element they would never have been worked, but we regret much for that reason. Legiti- mate movements are calculated to suffer on account of 1t. TIE TRIBUNE would have been glad to have rendered better service than that given by the Leader Democrat and have circulated the extra papers at our own expense for half the money the Leader Democrat took away from the | town.

directly against the posterior surface
of the aorta. 1t was completely envel-
oped with cystic tissue. which had al
so covered oil the large blood vessels
leading to and from the heart. There
Is only one way of accounting for the
presence of the bur. 1t had been
