pr. JekylI and MT. Hyde.

R. G. Mitchell, q farmer living near Parasould, has chicken that is great curiosity. The question as to whether it is rooster or a hen is what puzzles MT. Mitchell and his neighbors. The chicken was matched nearly three years ago. and as il grew into fullgrown chickenhood developed into q pretty hen But last spring her henship turned to a rooster The transformation came about by first shedding her plumage until hardly a feather remained. then the growth of a new plumage started, and the once dainty hen now struts in the habili- ments of a full.groWn rooster. The tail feathers are those of a rooster, her comb is that of a rooster, and she is growng a healthy pair of rooster spurs. Mr Mitchell says that during her career as a hen he does not re- member that she ever laid an egg, and since she has turned to d rooster he has never heard her crow She is not companionable with any of the other chickens

The Same Old Story.

Lumber manufacturers and dealers ih Arkansas are confronted by ear shortage which promises to he the most serious that has been known for several years. The car shortage is an annual event which is expected at this season of the year. but it is declared that the conditions are worse this year than they have been for long time. 1t Is claimed that for some time the lumbeTmen have been able to get only about half the number of cars that are needed, and as result busi- ness has been practically paralyzed at some points. The movement of the grain crop in the north. together with increased demands made upon rail roads in other sections of tie country al this season of the year, is respon- sible in a large measure for the trouble experienced in this part of the country. There is q big demand for cars at the mines in Arkansas, also. and this tends to decrease the number of cars that are available for the lum- bering interests. The trouble is not confined to Arkansas and at other points it is declared that the shortage is so pronounced as 10 be almost ruin ous to the interests of the lumber men. Yellow pine manufacturers and dealers are especially affected by the present conditions and they have ar ranged to hold a meeting at New Or leans within short time for the pHr- pose of making a final appeal to the railroads for relief

DIETS AND THE DOCTORS.
Scarcely an article of Food That To
 Not Condemned.

With what the yegetarians who eat no meat and the rheumatic sufferers who eat ne fruit and the eouty who takes no nitrogen if they knew it and the dyspeptics who eat only foedless foods, life stands to lose one of it's chief joys. q square meal. says the Medical Journal And il is not quite true that instinct rises superior 10 theory and that after all people eat what is good for them. Readers and thinkers are deeply influenced by chemical symbols and it Is not rare for a pallid dyspeptic of therculosis tendencies to endeavor to practice the economies of metaboiism ingeniously set forth by some of the physiological chemists. It Is high time somebody raised voice in protest for surely no people stand is so little need of this counsel as do ours. Our hustling pop ulation requires a good deal of nutri- ment and is suffering from lack rather than repletien.
 As race possibly We have not lived long enough in America to be thoroughly aeclimated. We speak of the effete populations of Eu- rope. but no one who has seen them would ever call the European peoples effete, and the impression is inef- faceable that what We need here is better cooked food and more of it., rather than the diet of fads that now captivate our nervous countrymen. II would certainly be difficult to con. struct any scheme of diet on which the profession would agree
 There is scarcely an article but finds condemnation somewhere among Us. The banana. dear to childhood. is denounced by the paediatrist as un- wholesome. though whole populations live upon it; while no printed diet list would include pork and bacon, which Dr Woods Hutchinson insists are the keystones of our national greatness. Even in the dietetics of disease-this rather than health being our chosen realm-utter confusion and disagree mcnt reign. Chemical formulas of hor- rifying elaboration lead one to con demn red meat in gout, another to pronounce 1t nutriment readily as similable and easily disposed of And The quarrels over foodstuffs permis- niDle to the rheumatic are equaled only by those over carbohydrates in grave diabetes. It is crying need of She time that the profession reaches a consensus Of conviction and teachings on the basic facts of nutrition in health and disease before they attack the more venial superstitions and ab- sardities of much beset laity First 'of all, brethren, shall We not cast out the beam that is in our own eye?

300 Copies of Volume Z.

State Librarian Clyde Lowry has re. ceived 300 copies of volume ' of tho State reports, which were ordered re printed by the last legislature. an ap- propriation for the work having been made by that body. The volumes are for sale to any one who cares to pay $3.50 per volume. Volume ' was out of print. and the State was unable to provide all who asked for them with that copy of the States judicial rul- ings. II was to have a reprint made that the appropriation was made by the legislature Volume ? is also out of print, and it has so far proven i'm possible for Librarian Lowry to get q copy of the report to send to the print CT for a new edition. As soon as one can be secured a sufficient supply to meet all demands will be printed.

TYPICAL INDIANS.
The Average Person So Considers
 Northwest Plains Tribes.

The northwest plains Indian is, to the average person, the typical Ameri- can Indian, the Indian of our school day books-powerful of physique statuesqLs. gorgeous in dress, with the bravery of the firm believer in predestination, says Seribner's Maga- zine. The constant, fearless hunting him to the greatest physical endur- ance, and gave an inbred desire for bloodshed. Thousands of peace loving agricultural living Indians might climb down from their cliff-perched homes, till their miniature farms, at tend their flocks, and at night time climb back up the winding stairs to their home in the clouds, and attract no attention. But if fierce band of Sioux rushed down on hapless emi- grant train the world soon learned of It.
 The culture of all primitive peoples Is necessarily determined by their en- vironment. This of course, means that all plain tribes-though speaking score or dnPudSeS-WeFe, III Hle and manner, broadly alike. They were buffalo hunting Indians, and only in rare cases did they give any attention to agriculture. Buffalo meat was their food and the by-products their clothing, tolls and implements.
 The plains tribes in earlier times were certainly true nomads. For a time, in the depths of winter. they eamped in the shelter of some forest along the streams. Other than that wherever roamed a herd of buffalo there also wandered the bands of northern Indians. The very existence of these tribes seemed bound to that of the buffalo. From the skins their lodges were built. With the hair on, the hides furnished the robes for the body, as we'll as mattresses and bed coverings. The meat. prepared in many ways, with the addition of a few roots and berries, furnished their entire food. Advancing civilization has swept these countless herds from the face of the plains and left their human companions stranded.

The ques- tion of a new school building for the North End was dropped. A committee had been appointed to investigate and seek desirable location in that part of town for a school building and in it's report the committee stated that lots in the North End were being held at fancy prices and that there was not a building site for sale at a reasonable p:ies

When the scalp throws off either dandruff or
gummy substance, 1t is an evidence of scalp dis
ease and no time should be lost in correcting 1t.
You certainly would not hesitate to take treat
ment were you to look at this matter through
magnifying glass. When highly magnifed 1t re-
sembles a working mass of insects. These
creatures absorb the nutriment or llfo-sap OF the
scalp causing the scalp to become dry and fever
sh, resulting in the loss Of hair and finally bald
ness. Danderlne works wonders in all such
cases. 1t thoroughly eradlcates all trace OF
