penditure on scenic and costume ef- fleets, the same insights into the pop ular desires and the same skill in se- lecting principals and chorus which made these two pieces record break ing productions, have been brought to bear in the staging of "Mamselle Sallie." The cast is a very large one, sixty people. and the working crew is large enough to make a small army. Waterbury is pecularily happy in being selected as the opening city and it is to be hoped that the offering Will meet with the appreciation and patronage 1t deserves. The piece will be repeated Tuesday evening. A trainload of New York managers and critics will be on hand tonight to size up the possibilities Prices are 25. 30, 75. s1.o0 and s1.50. Tel. 1884,

[. H. HINEMON,
State Sup't Public Instruction
A Novel Suit.

J. M Griffin, of Argenta, brought suit recently in Chancery Court to require Prosecuting Attorney Lewis Rhoton, of Pulaski county, to render an accounting of all money received and disbursed by him since he went into office, and to require him to pay into the treasury of the state and of Pulaski and Perry counties all money received by him in excess of S5,000 per annum. The complaint also attacks the authority of Police Judge Peter Schmuck, of Little Rock, and Police Judge J. B. Sibeck, of Argenta, to tax and collect a prosecuting attorneys fee in misdemeanor cases, and asks that, if the court should find these costs illegal, the police judges be en- joined from further collecting such fees, and that Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton and his deputies be required to pay into the court all such fees col lected by them.

Pastor Delat- tre from Roame (Reformed church), in company with Pastor Sainton, of the Baptist church, in Paris, visited with an automobile the departments of Loire Rhone, Alier, Saone ct Loire, within a radius of about 90 miles.

 cussed, but the association adjourn ed until the third Monday in Decem. Der, and it is expected that these matters will be taken up at that time

PECULIAR MEANS OF DEFENSE
Small Daeoers of Light Sent Out by
 the Centipede.

Among the peculiar powers of anil mals there are none harder to explain than the power of being self-luminous. 1t is sometimes termed phosphoreS- cence, but it is not now supposed to depend upon phosphorus in the ami nal. A correspondent of Nature de- scribes her experience with lumi- nous centipede which shows the evil dent purpose of the luminous sub stance as a means of defense. Atten- ton was first attracted by light of brilliant bluishgreen that moved for ward over the gravel, leaving behind a trail of light, which, gradually sep arating, became a scattered mass Of brilliant points The scattered ponts proved to be red ants, which were pur- suing the centipede. It had discharged this luminous liquid over them. The centipede was picked up and put in a tumbler where it flashed out mass of light. When the hand was placed over the tumbler to prevent the escape of the captive, a strange prickly sensation was felt as from slight charge of electricity. The cen tipede would writhe the light out of it's body in blue-green flashes until it had exhausted its luminosity and ceased to shine Defense seems certainly to be one of the uses of this secretion.

A WINNING START.
A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes
 Nerve Force for the Day.

Everything goes wrong if the break pie. What you eat does harm if you can't digest i.-it turns to poison.
 4 bright lady teacher found this to be true, even of an ordinary light breakfast of eggs and toast. She says:
 Two years ago I contracted a very annoying form of indigestion. My stomach was in such condition that a simple breakfast of fruit, toast and egg gave me great distress.
 'I was slow to believe that trouble could come from such a simple diet but finally had to give it up, and found a great change upon cup of hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with cream, for my morning meal. For course and have not suffered except when injudiciously varying my diet.
 T have been a teacher for several years and find that my easily digested breakfast means saving of nervous force for the entire day. My gain of ten pounds in weight also causes me to want to testify to the value of Grape-Nuts.

ARKANSAS 4 X STATE NEWS
OF VITAL INTEREST TO ALL
 VOTERS.
Supt. Hinemon Clears Up a Point, That None Should Fail to Note,
 and Cast a Ballot Accordingly.

The following is the reading of the Constitution with reference to taxa tion for school purposes, and also the reading as it will be if the proposed Amendment No. is adopted. It is being published throughout the state over the signature of Hon. John H. Hine- mon, who is lending so ably and faith fully his 1abors and abilities to the success of the amendment at the polls in September. and is in reply to a question on the subject, placing the whole matter in It's true light
 Section of Article 14 of the Consti- tuition of the State of Arkansas as it now stands reads as follows: The general assembly shall provide, by general laws, for the support of com4 mon schools by taxes, which shall never exceed in any one year two mills on the dollar on the taxable property of the state; and by an annual per capita tax of one dollar, to be assess ed on every male inhabitant of this state over the age of twenty-one years. Provided, The general assem- ply may by general law, authorize school districts to levy, by vote of the qualified electors of such districts, a tax not to exceed five mills on the dollar in any one year for school pur poses'
 Should the vote in the September election be favorable to the adoption of amendment No. &, the section above referred to would read as follows "The general assembly shall provide by general laws for the support of common school taxes, which shall nev- CT exceed in any one year three mills on the dollar on the taxable property of the state, and by an annual per capita tax of one dollar, to be assess ed on every male inhabitant of this state over the age of twenty-one years. Provided, the general assembly may by general law authorize school districts to levy by a vote of the qualified electors of such districts a tax not to exceed seven mills on the dollar in any one year for school purposes. Pro- vided, further that no such tax shall be appropriated to any other purpose nor to any other district than that for which it was levied"
 You will note from this that while the general assembly is authorized to enact laws increasing the state levy from two to three mills and authoriz- ing such school districts as may desire to do so to vote local tax not exceed
 
 mains the same, and is not increased to two dollars, as you seem to think.
 Respectfully yours,

After using Cuticura Soap, Oint- ment and Pills, I am very glad to say 1 am entirely relieved of that itching humor of the head and scalp which 1 was bothered with quite length of time.
