Brutally Tortured.

A case came to light that for persistent and unmerciful torture has perhaps never beeen equaled. Joe Golobick of Colusa, Calif., writes. "For 15 years endured insufferable pain from Rheu- matism and nothing relieved me though tried everything known. I came across Electric Bitters and it's the greatest medicine on earth for that trouble. A few bottles of it completely relieved and cured me- Just as good for Liver and Kidney troubles and general debility. Only 50c. Satisfaction guaranteed by Poy. nor & Morrow Druggists.

DON'T NEED NEWSPAPERS.

Vice President Sands Discontin-
 ues Railroad Advertising.
 The wisest railroad manager in the United States has just been discovered. His name is George l.. Sands and he is vice president and general manager of the St.. l.. 6 N. A.
 It has remained all these years for MT. Sands to make the re- markable discovery that rail- road company has no need for an exchange of courtesies with the newspapers-not even with those published along the line of the road.
 Mr. Sands has issued an order, discontinuing all advertising, tables, etc., of his road, notifying the editors to disson- tinue all papers to his address, as he will hereafter not be respons- ible for so much as a subscription bill.
 While the effect of this close- listed, narrow contracted, hide bound order will work some pe- cuniary inconvenience to the editors who occasionally find it advantageous to use an advertis- ing ticket, the general public will be benefited.
 While the papers as a general rule give the road full value re- ceived for every pass issued on account of advertising, yet the press has been in a manner subsi- dized by the transaction, as there is an unwritten understanding that the interests of the company must not be antagonized by the paper thus favored, and for this reason we believe that many wrongs in the practices of the company and it's employs are treated with indifference by the papers if not even paliated, when vigorous agitation of the matter would force correction by public demand or legislation.
 For instance, we believe that the papers on this line have it within their power to bring about a big reduction in the passenger and freight tariffs of the road. Had the Butt bill, to establish a depot at the Missouri line, passed five years ago, the passenger tariff between Seligman and Eureka Springs would have been reduced almost half. There is a distance of twelve miles be- tween Seligman and the Narrows on which the company collects 46 cents a mile, because the state line is between these stations and the laws of neither Missouri nor Arkansas, allowing only three cents mile, can be made to ap- ply. A station at the line would senable passengers to pay from sone station to another and thus get from Eureka Springs to Se- ligman and vica versa for 54 cents, whereas it now costs S1 .OO. "A big reduction would also be eff fected in freight rates by the Same process.
 . This is just one of the many important matters affecting this road the lccal papers will now vigorously agitate.
 The courage of MT. Sands in making this order, like that of the pull lthat undertook to butt the rain off the track, is to be ad- smired, but his judgement is not .n to be compared with that
 theenraged.bovine. Candidly,
 ought to be bored for his
 nity.
 This paper will not assume the
 ltitude of a kicker, nor offer any ndue criticisms of the short omings of the road, but the ubic policy of the road will have sur undivided attention from ime to time.
 No Pity shown.

Doings of the Rebekahs.

u 10 SCi0I ally SuppOSOu tildG the Rebekah lodge is a secret or der, but judging from the follow ing report of the last meeting furnished us by a member in dicates that all their doings are not to be withheld from the pulp
 ic:
 On last Friday night the fol- lowing were installed as officers of Dorcas Rebekah Lodge No. 108 of Green Forest, for the term beginning Jan. 1, 1904, and end- ing July 1. 1904; Miss Ethel Walker N. G.; Mrs. H. M. Foster, V. G.; Miss Maud Rhodes, Sec; and Miss Grace Wells, Treas. The installing officer was Mrs. T. L. Hummer, who was elected District Deputy Grand Master at the last session of the Grand Lodge of the I. O. o. F.
 After the work of installation Dr. T. c. Ramsey announced that he had friend who de- manded entrance to the lodge room and asked that committee be appointed to go with him to the outer door and escort his friend into the room. The com mittee was appointed as desired and after they left the room all expected that some distinguished Odd Fellow or Rebekah would be brought before the lodge, and that a magnificent speech would be heard. The members were thoroughly surprised when the committe appeared carrying a table which was conveyed to the center of the room and when the cover was removed from the table the members of the lodge were delighted to see a fine turkey in the center of the table surrounded by all kinds of other good things to eat. After the feast the lodge was again called to order and vote of thanks extended to Dr. Ramsey for his magnificent treat. After few speeches from mem- bers of the order, the lodge closed in due form. It was the opinion of all the members that Friday evening was one of the best meet ings of Dorcas Rebekah Lodge yet held.
 Green Forest has every reason to be proud of her Odd Fellow and Rebekah lodges. Two years ago the I. O. O. F. of this place was composed of five members. The treasury was empty and the lodge in debt. Now the lodge has something over 40 membrs, is out of debt and has money in it's treasury. A little more than a year ago five persons who had taken the Rebekah degree se- cured a charter and organized a Rebekah lodge. This lodge has grown to be one of the most popular lodges in the town and has now nearly forty active, working members and has money in it's treasury to meet all of it's demands.
 Both the subordinate and the Rebekah lodge have since their organization been able to give many practical and substantial illustrations of the benefits to be derived from fraternal association and any community may we'll be proud of such organization a part of whose work it is to visit the sick, relieve the distre ssed, and minister to the wants of the un- fortunate.
 May such organizations ever stand
 "As some tall cliff that lifts it's awful form,
 Swells from the vale and midway leaves the

 Eternal sunshine rests upon it's cad"
