Something for You
 10 Think About

In 1897 the Southwest Arkansas Tele- phone Go. started business in Prescott. At that time copper wire cost Il 3-4 cents per pound Now it is 25 cents. In spite of the increased cost of mater ials and operation5 the rates are no higher now than then.
 The local toll and farmer line ser vices reaches nearly every part of the county. The long distance service is splendid.

'I have been in the manufacturing drug business myself for 27 years" he says. But things went wrong; my health gave out, my stomach was gone and soon I had not even employ ment.
 Tt was then that I conceived the plan of offering myself as a subject for experiment to the manufacturers of proprietary medicines. The first to whom I applied said that he would be glad to obtain such man who had a knowledge of chemistry, and that it was great difficulty to find him.
 q at once offered myself and have been with the firm ever since. That was some years ago, and you can see for yourself what excellent health 1 am in now.
 That kindness of any true sort must be expressed in terms of the recipient. not of the donor.
 That capability marks some men, and importance others, but that indis- pensability attaches to none.

Indications Point to Defeat
Williams for Senatorsllip
To-Day.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. July 21.--Ad-
vices received here to-day Indicate
that the outcome of the senatorial race
In Mississippi, which Will be decided
In the primaries tomorrow, is in grave
doubt. 1t is said that up until week
or two ago. when Frederick Palmer,
war correspondent" for Golfers ap-
peared on the scene, the drift was
strongly in favor of Williams. But
Palmer came along and wrote story
in which he intimnted that Governor
Vardaman had n streak OF colored
blood In his veins. This unjust in
situation Is reported to have so an
gered all Mississippi people that with
out regard to their Affiliations In the
fight they have made UP their minds
that II Mr. Palmer comes into the State
again 1t will not be very much Of a
health resort for him. The assertion
is reported to have caused a reaction
among tho voters toward Vardaman
and it is said that It he is nominated
Palmer's insinuation Will be largely
responsible for it,
| If Mr., Williams is nominated he will
not enter the Senate until the fall of
1911. He Will serve out his term in the
siHtieth Congress. and will probably be
reelected to the sixty first Congress
The SiXtieth Congress Will expire In
March, 1909, and the sixty first In
March, 1911. 1t will be seen from this
that Mr. Williams has IA chance to be
Speaker OF the House yet. even though
he is nominated for the Senate. Is
1t is fact conceded by those who
have watched his career that the circle
of those who oppose his leadership In
the House is gradually widening, and
| Representative Hay predicts that he
| Will be defeated for minority leadership
next fall by Representative DE Almond

the idea that common-sense of the CT

The reason is not far to seek. 1t is
becoming more and more manifest
that marriages should not be wholly

article of the same price would be sold for cents, no matter whether it was worth 10 cents or $50. A woman came in to buy an article which cost g.. She bought two others which cost the same amount. and then a fourth. for which she paid only cents. The fourth. eighth and twelfth yards of every kind of cloth went for cents. The store was packed and damned and the stock cleared up in a hurry. Yet it was practically the same 25 per cent reduction sale which had been advertised SO unsuccessfully. The pro- position was merely put in a more convincing way.
 Systematic town boosting" is a fea- lure of American business activity which aims at the general good instead of personal profit. one western town had a board of trade which had slept along for years without doing anything in particular. except eating some food once a year at a banquet andslistening to some spread eagle Oratory. The or ganizatiOn became moribund and it's presidency was an honor no longer sought for. The directors met and gave the place to a young man of the type we like to encourage" The young man took his job seriously and went to work. IL wasn't long before he grew an idea of his own.
 Every family that moved to town he spotted. Employment was provided for the bread-winners where necessary, and the new people were made to feel at home. When his personal attention had got in its work a representative of the board of trade interviewed the head Of the family. This interview was incorporated into a letter. mime- ograph copies were made. put into stamped envelopes and made ready to mail. Then the letters were taken to the newcomer and he was asked to address them to his friends back east" The scheme worked like magic and the population bOomed. Of that idea many new ones were born. The young man has been several times re- elected president of the board of trade and he can have anything the people of that town can give him.

THE cANTAIOUPE CROP.

Chances for the largest crop of can taloupes that has ever been raised in the valley are getting better every day.
 The warm days of the past week have done much to make the melons grow and many of the first planting are now as big as oranges.
 Crates for packing are now. coming in and preparations are being made for handling the crop, which will be ready in about three weeks.
 The crop will be so large, and men are so scarce that the growers are afraid that they will be unable to get enough help to harvest their crops at the right time.

BICYCLE RIDERS MORE CAREFUL

Since the action taken by the city council at their last meeting in re- gard to the enforcement of the city ordinances. bicycle riders are being much more careful about riding upon the sidewalks of the town.
 It seems that the violation of this ordinance more than any other was what brought about the action of the council and as no one knows who that special policeman is to be everyone is keeping conscientiously in the street with their wheels now.
 It is a big temptation for a wheel man 10 swing on to the walk when he strikes an especially dusty block and sees the walk unoccupied and Marshal Burton and the new policeman will be kept mighty busy for awhile if the habit is broken up.
 One prominent citizen has already been caught violating the ordinance but he was released upon pleading iC- norance of the law. So far none of the members of the council have been caught upon the walks with their wheels. but when they are they will probably be taken to jaii.
