SUGAR MAKES YOU GROW.
Americans and Britons Increasing
In Height and Weight.

English and American girls just
reaching womanhood, and the next
generation in its early teens. are I'M
usually tall. standing head OF
more above their mothers. This has
been remarked ON over and over
again, and has been the subject OF
learned disquisitions. Yet no gen.
orally accepted cause for the fact has
been given up TO this time.
Now comes London physician OF
note and says that 1t Is simply a
case of heightened sweetness. BY
sweetness" in this particular case
the nature OF the young ladies Is
not referred to. but their diet. In
fact, statistics of recent years show
that Americans and Britons of both
sexes are increasing in height and
weight. Why? The physician re-
ferred to says It Is sugar.
Great Britains and Americans are
the sugar eating nations of the world
and have quadrupled their saccha,
rtne consumption In the last score Of
years.
This Is now the best explanation
of an accepted fact, and 1t will have
to stand until q better one comes
along. Tit-Bits.

Four Days Debate.

There will be a religious dis cusion at Yocum, Ark, Camp bell school house) between Eld. J. w. Fairchild ("Hardshell'') and a leading representative of the Christian church, beginning at 10 d. m., Tuesday Feb. 24, 1908, and continuing four days. The Christian preacher affirms that "The eternal life or salvation of of the alien sinner, who is dead in trespasses and sins, depends on his obedience to the gospel" " Fairchild denies. Then Fair child affirms negative to the proposition and the other man denies.
 All persons interested in the subject of salvation should at tend this discussion and hear "both sides'' of the question shown up. We have not learned who the opponent of Eld. Fair child will be, but he is to be a representative man. Remember the date.-Tuesday, Feb. 4th.

Compliments The ribune.

There is danger of The Tribune getting puffed up if we should receive many letters after the tone of one from MT. Arnold Hughes of Witchita, Kan. The writer is brother to the late Duncan c. Hughes, who was we'll known to the people of Green Forest and community.
 Although he has never resided here, the author of the letter, from which we make an extract below, has been here on different occasions. He is a great admirer of this part of the country, and has acquired some land interests here. Writing to The Tribune under date of Jan. 26, among other things, Mr. Hughes says:
 want to congratulate you and also the people, who by their patronage and good will, enable you to publish so readable and able exponent of home interests as The Tribune. 1 take seven dailies and numerous weeklies but with candor can say that none of them are so fully read as the Green Forest Trlb- une. I fear that many of your people, for they are made of the same kind of clay that composes the rest of us, do not fully appreciate the effort you are putting forth in the interests of your community.
 Too many of us are like the man who said to another, "Be thou fed and clothed," yet he mInistered not unto him. I will be in Green Forest within the coming month and will manifest my appreciation of your paper in more substantial way.
 The Tribune deeply ap- preciates the generous words of MT. Hughes, coming as they do from a man of much prominence and influence in his home city. We hope that we merit in a degree at least the estimation he has placed upon the paper. The Tribune, as is the case with most other country newspapers, is largely just what it's patronage and environments make it, and a good word for the paper is an in- direct boost for the town. The Tribune has no complaint to off,
 fer in the matter of loyalty and patronage on the part of the people in whose interest the paper is published.

THINGS LOOKING GOOD
County Cattle Inspector Jerry Brammer Reports Progress
NO TRACE OF FEVER TICKS NOW
Requirements of the Govern ment Being Promptly Met

Jerry Brammer, the County Cattle Inspector, reports that conditions relative to fever ticks in his territory is now all thai could be desired that a close in : spection of all droves in the county fails to reveal a trace ol the pests, and that there is nc disposition along the quarantine line, which extends across the east, south and west boundaries of the county, on the part of any one having cattle to drive them across into this county withou complying fully with regulations for rigid inspection.
 Mr. Brammer declares that there is every reason to believe the efforts of the Carroll County Cattle Growers, Association, un. der the auspices of which organ ization he working, to have the government quartine line moved from the north to the south boundary of the county will be successful, since every detail of the requirements is being met so far to the letter.
 The inspector is on the alert every day to see to it that everything is going on as it should. The association so far is defraying the expenses promptly and it is 10 be hoped that 1t will stay with the prop . osition until those in authority say they are satisfied.
 It is thought that the guarding of the line and general inspection work will not have to be carried on later than April or May, when the government is expected to take favorable action in the premises.
 As the Tribune has shown ir discussing this matter severa times in the past, this is matter of the greatest moment to the cattle raisers of Carroll county To be free from the handicap ol a quarantine on the north, which effectually cuts us off from the cattle markets of the country fol several months in the year, and subjects them at all times to in spections and delays en route, is a matter that amounts to many thousands of dollars annually from the price we would other wise receive for our stock.
 To miss this one opportunity would most likely mean that the quarantine would not be lifted for several years to come, if at all. This paper feels a deep interest in this matter and insists that all cattle raisers help out in any demand that the present cir cumstances may require.
