stomach and retard its work; there

Second: Because Vinol acts first up
on the stomach, creates a healthy
appetite, strengthens and tones up
the digestive organs, puri6es and en-
riches the blood, and, Ia a natural
manner, restores health and strength.
Third: Because Vinol contains no

Gov. Little, of Arkansas, is in
such poor health that he has an
nounced his intention of resigning.
There are already six or eight men
mentioned as his successor. Two
of these are ex-senator James II.
Berry and John H. Hinemon. The
latter is Tennessean who went
from Union City some years ago.
He is leading educator and has
served as State superintendent of
Public Instruction Of Arkansas. He
would make an excellent Governor.
Ex-senator Berry was Governor in
1924, and was elected to the SEN
ate in 1885. Arkansas has no Lieu

IDA,

If ever star fell from Heaven
into the arms of man-if ever a
flower grew into woman-that
star was Ida Saxton Mckinley.
There was an aroma of sweetness
and grace in the very name. Her
husband never addressed her, new
or referred to her, except as ida"
BY an interposition little short of
divine the full knowledge of the
supreme tragedy which descended
into a life yet in its noon, was
spared her; the angels drew veil
as of tears between her and its
full realization.
God had given it to Ida Saxton
to be fifty mated. There were
many beauties and virtues in the
character Of William Mckinley;
his career was abundantly fulfilled,
and the crown of glory he wore
with such consuming modesty was
studded with jewels both rich and
radiant; the soldier, the civilian,
the man of affairs and the party
leader; but the rarest of all that
Aehone IN that priceless diadem was
Msdevotion- simple, constant, I'M
erring-to ida"
1t seems strange, a most mys-
terious, inexplicable decree OF
Providence that ordained the death
by the assassin's hand of three
such men as Lincoln, Garfield and
Mckinley, each so unoffending, SO
filed with the love of human kind,
so gracious and generous.
OF the three, Mckinley was least
aggressive. Lincolniived in deadly
times, and Gar6eld's very intel
lectuality raised up both enemies
and enmities. Garfield, lovable as
be was, had a rough side to him,
and Lincoln, big of heart and Of
brain, was outwardly, even as
gnarled oak. Mckinley lived a
primitive Christian man. He emu
lated St. Paul in the desire to be
all things TO all men. 1t gave him
pleasure to give pleasure; it caused
him pain to inflict pain. No man
ever grew as fast as he in the Ex-
ecutive Office, both in mental sta
lllre and in breadth.

ers sand steel protected cruisers,
it would seem that there is little
choice between the United States
navy and that of France. The lat
ter has eighty-three vessels of
these three classes, either built or
building, and the United States
has eighty seven. France now has
in commission eighteen battleships,
twenty armored cruisers and thir-
ty-one protected cruisers. The
United States has twenty-one bat
tleships, eight armored cruisers
and fortythree protected cruisers.
There is very little difference
also in the relative strength of the
uncompleted vessels of the two
countries. France has under con-
struction ten battleships and four
armored cruisers and the United
States has eight battleships, four
armored cruisers and three pro-
tected cruisers.
The United States holds its lead
over Germany by the slenderest
possible margin. In fact, there is
little to choose between them, and
German authorities do not concede

which he had religiously opposed,
and for which the country was ill
prepared, was suddenly thrust
upon him. The White House be-
came an armed camp. There was
not an hour of the day, or night,

came never moment when that

on him the care of a nurse for a
child-none other nurse than he.

Third Naval Power.

Washington, June 3.-An i'm
portant confidential statement has
been prepared for Secretary Met
calf by the Office of Naval Intelli-
gence, showing the sea strength
of the leading eight powers of the
world as it was on June 1, 1907.
The statement shows that while
the United States ranks third in
the naval powers, only one nation,
Great Britain, is stronger in line
of pattleships. There is little to
choose between the relatativ g
strength of the United States navy
and that of Germany.
Secretary Metcalf believes that
the tables just presented to him
are the most reliable that have
ever been compiled on this sub
ject. The experts have thrown
out all the obsolete fighting ships
and numerous golfers, transports,
repair ships and converted cruis-
ers, which represent no real
strength, but are usually carried
on the naval list in order to make
an impressive showing. No war
ships more than twenty years old
are included in the statement, I'M
less they have been reconstructed
and rearmed since 1900. Vessels
of less than 1000 tons, except tor
pedo craft, are also excluded.
Great Britain, of course, main
-tains her naval supremacy. The
policy of England is to have a
navy equal to the two next strong
est nations. England's feet COM
prises a mighty array of tity-tw
battleships, thirty two armored
armored cruisers and niDety-four
protected cruisers of more than
1000 tons displacement each. She
has now building eight battleships
and six armored cruisers. In adj
dition England has an imposing
force of torpedo boats, destroyers
and submarines.
1t was only few years ago that
the United States ranked fifth
among the worlds sea powers.
Two day we are third, with a con
stantly narrowing margin of diff
ference between US and France, /
which is next to Great Britain.
