Dictionary wisdom.

"The deuce to pay" or "the devil
to pay" is said to be Of nautical
origin. A crack or seam which is
hard to get at is called by sailors a
devil" and the act Of caulking is
described by the verb "to pay" The
phrase originally was. "A devil to
pay and no pitch hot"
An English judge. in a recent de-
cision, pointed out the distinction be-
tween salary and wages observing
that he preferred the latter and that
a judges pay is so called. Wages"
are really rewards Of labor stipulated
to be paid, the idea being that the
sum is pledged or engaged-the same
gage" appearing also in mortgage"
and wager" As was noted in this
column some time ago. salary"
means literally salt money" and is
derived from the allowance given Ro
man soldiers for salt, which after
ward came to mean pension or sti-
pend.
"Ennui," according to Littre, the

OF the lost article department of tn

er's duty is to look after countless
articles that are picked up and
turned in by porters. conductors and
walters on dining ears.
Some time ago a New York doctor
brought to the department a pretty
diamond ring which he had picked
up 100 @ car on a trip from the west
In the course Of time the ring was
claimed by its owner. who proved to
Doe q pretty and attractive girl from

was maturity overioyed to get her
ring, which she had probably never
expected to see again. and in her
gratitude asked for the doctors adj
dress in order that she might thank
him for his Kindness in returning the
article TO the department.
Mr.. Cooper cannot tell just what
happened after the young lady left
the Office with the Doctors address,
and he has only a hazy idea how the
whole thing might have happened,
but what he does know is that some
days ago a happy couple called in to
see him on their wedding journey,
and he was astonished TO recognize
in them the doctor and the young
lady who had lost the ring. The
meeting was naturally a pleasant one
and Mr. Cooper is proud Of his work

GOV. LITTLE MAY
 GO TO ST. LOUIS
It Is Seportcd that There Is a TumOr Or AbscesS at the Base Of the Brain.

Fort Smith, June 29.-A gen. tleman who came in from Green- wood this morning and while in Greenwood made specific inquir- ies regarding the condition of the governor, stated this afternoon that Governor Little is afflicted with an absess, or tumor, at the base of his brain, and that it is the intention of the family to take him to St. Louis, to have an oper- ation performed for the removal of the obstruction. The gentle- man said that the presence of this obstruction is what has effected the mind of the governor, and that it is believed it can be re- moved without disastrous con- sequences, in which instan ce Governor Little will return to hi 8 normal mental condition.
The Green Forest tribune., 1907-07-05

Uniled States Senator Jeff Davis has closed a contract for a series of lectures over four states, to begin July IS. For some time this deal has been un der consideration and this morn : ing the senator received a mes- sag to the effect that his terms have been accepted and that the cream of Missouri Democracy will hear him on July IS.
 The subjet of the senators's lecture will be "The Trust Evil and It's Tendency"
 His tour will cover the states of Missouri, Louisiana, Texas and oklahoma. The length of the tour has not yet. been communicated to the senator, but it will cover considerable time.
 Senator Davis was asked today regarding the report that he will go upon the lecture platform and he admitted that he had clesed a contract for a tour, and also ad- mitted that the consideration was not less than S250 per lec- ture.
 The first lecture will be del;v- cred at Columbia, Mo-, the site of the Missouri State University, and the contract specifies that the senator's we'll known position on the trust evil will be the theme his address there. - Arkansas Democrat.
The Green Forest tribune., 1907-07-05

hampered the prosecuting at- torney in this Investigation, for without it any person, however innocent, might be vietimized by false testimony of persons really guilty themselves.
 In conclusion, a deep concep- ton of the human side of life prompts the sentiment and the hope that with the native ability and talents possessed by your husband, aided by your love and loyal devotion, and the willing, helping hand outstretched by thousands of his we'll -wishers and friends, that the golden sum- light of hope may brush aside the stable overhangings of deep de- spair and from the suffering and tribulations of the past may ome a happier and truer view of life, which will enable you thus re- united to your husband and him to you and his children, to gather up the fragments of shattered hopes of his past years and crys. talize the n with a stable ad- herance to life, as I feel he will now see it.
 Remember that your love may help you to forget your troubles. The years are so tender they bind up the wounds, which we think are so deep. The troubles of life fade out as the splendor fades from the sky when the sun sinks to sleep. As the clouds fade away the last trouble may vanish and the increase of time may weave garlands to cover the scars which we think are life- marks. My conception of a true enforcement of our criminal stat utes is that they should be en- forced with reason and justice and tempered with mercy. "The quality of mercy is not
 stained,
 It droppeth as the gentle rain
 from heaven
 Upon the place beneath; it is
 twice blessed; It blesseth him that gives, and
 him that takes. 'Tis mightiest in the migtiest, it
 becomes
 The throned monarch better than 4 his crown:
 His sceptre shows the force of
 temporal Power, The attribute to awe and majesty, Wherein doth sit the dread and
 fear of kings;
 But mercy is above his scepter-
 ed sway,
 It is enthroned in the hearts of
 kings,
 It is an attribute to God himself, An earthly power doth then show
 likest Gods
 When mercy seasons justice. Though justice be thy plea, con
 sider this,
 That in the course of justice none
 of us
 Should see salvation: we do pray
