DON'T WANT THEIR
 NAMES PUBLISHED
Members of the Jefferson County Medical Society Say It Is Un. professional to Have Their
 Names Appear in Print.

Because in their opinion, it is un- professional and improper in the practice of medicine, Pine Bluff physicians at recent meeting of the Jefferson County Medical Society were urged to refrain from having their names published in the news papers in connection with the cases in which they are interested.
 Just what prompted the discus sion of such subject on the part of the physicians at the meeting, which, it is said, was called for the purpose of arranging for the entertainment of Doctor J. N. Mc- Cormack, the noted physician who is soon to visit the city. was not stated. The subject was discussed at length and although no official action was taken by the society. the physicians were asked to evade publicity of their names as much as possible.
 The meeting was held at the of- fee of Doctor J. w. Scales.

Why Colds Are DANGEROUS.

Because you have contracted ordin-
airy colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for a moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows thaC
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in a common cold. Con,
sumption is not caused by a cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found Judgment. 1t Is the same with
all infectious diseases. D~iptheria,
scarlet fever, measles n w%hooping
cough are much more likely to be con
tracted when the child has a cold. You
will see from this that more real dan,
ger turks in a cold than in any other
of the common ailments. The easiest
and quickest way to cure a cold is to
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected
by this preparation have made it a
staple article of trade over a large part
of the world. For sale by all druggists.

CONCERN FELT
Ordinary Methods for Treating Catarrh
Prove Unsuccessful.

Recent statistics showing an in,
crease in catarrh have shaken the con.
fdence of medical men in the usual
prescriptions to safeguard humas
health from the ravages Of this disease.
When stomach dosing proved ineffec.
tive, it was natural to look for some
other treatment, and it is believed
that in Hyomei an absolute cure for
all catarrhal troubles has at last been
found. Breathed through a neat peck
ct inhaler, it's healing medication
reaches every spot where there are ca
tarrhal germs, destroys them, prevents
their future growth, and soothes the
irritated mucous membrane SO that re-
lief is almost instantly, while lasting
cure is practically sure to follow.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81. 90, and is sold by A. H. Cordiner
under an absolute agreement to refund
the money If it does not give satisfac'
ton. 1t is the only cure for catarrs
that has ever been sold under a guar
antee to cost nothing unless it cures
but Mr.. C%ordiner has so much faith in
its power to cure all catarrhal trou'
bles that he is willing to take the
risk. SO if Hyomei does not help you
there will not be a penny's expense
Get an outfit at once on this liberal
plan.

FUNSTON TOO YOUNG.
President Will Jump Other Brigadiers
Over His Head.

Washington, March 1S.-Brigadier
General Fred Funston will never be
promoted major general of the regular
army long as Roosevelt is president.
If the seniority in promotions is observ-
ed as is usually done Funston would
become a major general April IA. But
the president will not observe the Gus
tom and will jump a man over Funston
on that date and later on jump another
man over him. He says Funston is very
young for such a high rank.
Major General James S. Wade, COM
manding the Atlantic division will re-
tire April IA. Brigadier General William
s. McCaskey who stands sixth on the
list of brigadiers, will likely take Cen
eral Wade's place. General Bell will
recommend him for promotion in order
that he may retire with the rank of
major general when he reaches the sta
tutory retirement age, 81 years, October
s next. The plan is to appoint Briga-
dier General Theodore J. Wint, to va
cancy in major generals. Both Nc
Caskey and Wint will be jumped over
Brigadier General Funston's head. who
heads the list of brigadiers. Funston
will not reach the retirement age until
1929 so that the president and secretary
of war have decided he can wait some
years for promotion to the grade of

DUE TO WIRELESS.
New Theory Regarding Destruction of
the Battleship lena

Toulon. March 1S.-M Naudin. the
wireless telegraph expert. has ad-
vanoed a new theory regarding the
cause of the disaster to the battieship
lena, whose afterpart was DESTROYED
by the explosion of . s14sa gazine March
IL, resultingei in considerable Toss of life.
He says that a t the time of the explo-
sion it was noted that powerful wire
less currents were passing and he be-
lieves that the vessels isolation in the
dry dock here received in the accumu-
lation of secondary hertzian waves in
the "B" powder maga zine from the
ships wireless apparatus and that an
outside current accumulated a high
tension spark.
Another Theory
Toulon, March 1S.-The explosion
which destroyed the battleship lena,
it is now believed. may possibly have
been due to a criminal act. A sailor
has been arrested for having spoken
in qualification at the disaster. and the
commander of another warship has
received a letter threatening a similar
catastrophe to his vessel.
Naval officers are demanding that
sailors affected by the antimilitarist
propaganda be promptly given shore
duty. launch in which President
Fallieries visited the feet during the

boats and tugs from the Lizard and
Falmouth soon reached the scene and
together with the Suevic's own boats,
commenced landing the passengers.
The women and children were first
sent ashore. There were no fewer
than $50 children on board. many of
them being babes in arms whom the
local fishermen and their wives lifted
out of the boats and carried through
the surf to nearby cottages.
A high wind. rough sea and fog
hampered the landing operations
earlier but the fog lifted about
O'Clock this morning and from thence
forward boats loaded with passengers
were sent ashore in quick succession.
Almost within sight of the wrecked

RISING SLOWLY
Ohio River May Not Reach High
Mark Looked For.

Cincinnati. o., March 1S.-The Ohio
river continued to rise last night but
at a diminished rate. At 3 O'Clock it
passed 61.5 and only two-tenths of a
foot had been added to that five hours
later. The crest was expected to ar
rive some time during the afternoon
and doubt was expressed today wheth-
er it would rise 3 feet as previously
estimated. The railroads are badly
crippled in all directions but suffering
is the worst in the Cincinnati terni-
nails. which were under water or so
surrounded as to be cf little service.
The traction lines and passenger traf-
fic were seriously inconvenienced and
delayed today.
