DAN PARRETT'S
 BODY RECOVERED

The body of Dan Parrett, the negro boy who was drowned in the Arkan- sas river Tuesday at noon, was recov- cred Wednesday about the same time. The drowning occurred near the sand bar opposite the Jefferson hotel and the body was not located though drag nets and dynamite were used. Efforts had been given up to locate the body when c. F. Applegate, who has moved to Pine Bluff from Little Rock to op- crate a fish dock here, saw body about 11:30 floating near the free fer ry crossing about half a mile down stream from where the drowning took place. He, with two boys, brought the body to the bank, where it was taken charge of by the Holderness- Fitzhugh Co. Coroner McGaughy was summoned to hold an inquest bue de- clded that the facts were sufficiently established and that an inquest was unnecessary. MT. Applegate recently came to this city from Missouri by gasoline boat and states that in his career as fisherman and riverman he has rescued about fifty bodies from various rivers. The fact that the body came to the surface so soon, he stated, is rather remarkable, several days at least elapsing in most cases.

For a great many years doctors pronounced it local disease and pre- scribed local remedies, and by con- stantly failing to cure with local treat ment pronounced it incurable.

Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Common Aches and Ills of Pine
 Bluff People.

As one weak link weakens d chain. so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking down.
 Overwork, strains, colds and other causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity is lessened the whole body suffers from the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood.
 Aches and pains and laneuor and urinary ills come, and there is an ever-lncreasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Brights disease There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help.
 Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll. Pine Bluff cures are the proof

Davis, 1915 Oak street, Pine Bluff, Ark, says: We always keep a box of Doan's Kidney Pills in our house, knowing them to be very ef- fective in cases of kidney trouble I, as well as other members of my fam fly, have used this remedy and have never found it wanting It gives me pleasure to let others know of such a splendid preparation"

THE DANGEROUS DRUG HABIT.
By EDWIN A. ME.
Copyright, 1908, by Edwin A. N~c.

UANoEEpOS DNSo
 Are we becoming modern lotus eat ers!
 Literature is fuil of reference tu those fabled beings who lived on the | fruit of the lotus-those who forgot cares and the lapse of time and gave themselves to indolent pleasures. The Lotophagi of fable have their counterpart ill the modern drug caters. The lotus flower of our day is opium and its products, or cocaine, or ab- sjnth, or any number of preparations.
 1t is said intemperance is the great est evil of our day. The drug habit is large part of that vice.
 If you will talk with q retail drug gist who will tel you the facts or con suit the best medical authorities. you will be shocked and startled.
 One might expect, for instance. that large quantities of morphine or cocaine would be sold in the drug stores of the Tenderloin districts It is also true that the pharmacies in the fashionable districts have q large trade in these and other drug stuffs. Besides, THE DRUG HABIT IS PREVALENT AND GROWING AMONG ALL GLASSES OF OUR PEOPLE.
 The society woman is tempted to the use of Stimulants because dissipation drains her vitality. She must keep the pace and be viyacious. The flesh is weak the temptation is great. On the other hand. the low and the unfor- tunate. impoverished both in body and in mind, take the drug to forget their misery.
 But there are others.
 Besides the high and the low, the mass of the common people are com ing to be large drug users.
 The temptation is an insidious one scribed by d physician. It soothes racked nerves. When the pain comes. use it. The pain comes often. Per haps one cannot sleep. There is the drug. Perhaps one has a great weak ness-the drug again. Anxiety. wor- ", depression-the drug And, finally, almost every phase of the victims life makes a special draft on the danger ous drug
 And so the modern lotus flower makes dreadful inroads on our society.
 The drug habit has almost ruined the French people. The government, over the ravages, placards the dead walls of the cities, warning the people against the use of drugs and intoxicants.
 The habit will ruin any people. It saps vital forces. It ruins generations yet to be. What hope is there for race that inherits the vitiated blood l and sodden brain cells of drug taking mothers?
 The press and the pulpit must fight l this growing vice.
 Because the evil is intrenched in Unlike drunkenness. it does not manifest itself. It shrinks from publicity. It must be dragged into the limclight.
 Sound the alarm,
