The farmers hair may be bushy, his skin bronzed, but his eyes are clear, his digestion is that of a three-year-old. his con- science is like the ether above his head, and his bank account as fat as his favorite shoat. He is the most independent creature that wears the garb of civilized man.
 In many towns of this size wom- ans clubs are numerous, and while they are criticised by some, they are certainly beneficial in many ways. In small towns and villages the club has been a spe- cial providence to many a weary mother or to the woman of few early advantages and large aspi- rations. In our great cities wom- en's clubs have been the first to institute social reforms and to call public attention to crying evils. They have controlled su- perficial and selfish social cus- toms until such customs have be- come obsolete. In home govern ment and training of children they long ago struck the keynote of a grand choral of reform which will become more and harmonious as the years roll by. Out of the selfish ego" they have evolved the progressive we. They have strengthened two weak hands with the combined power of twenty or hundred; they have taken a dull uncut gem of thought and polished it until it has been fit for the purest setting in refined gold; they have mastered great difficulties, con- quered absurd prejudices. and solved difficult problems; and the grandest work of all has been to teach the women their own pos- abilities and the glory of their own heritage.

FIRE CHIEF SEE-
 ING JUNK DEALERS
Little Rock Desires to Get Rid of Antiquated Fire
 Fighting Apparatus

Little Rock, June 11.-Does any city, town or village in Arkansas want a bargain in steamers, aerial truck, hose wag- on or reel with which to equip it's fire department? If so, cor respond with Charles Hafer, chief of the Little Rock fire de- partment, and prices on almost any second hand article known to fire fighters will be cheerfully given. The City of Little Rock is the proud possessor of the largest assortment of cast aside fire fighting apparatus of any city in the South, and the com monwealth is willing to dispose of this assortment at job lot pric- es. So eager is the city to dis pose of this apparatus that Chief Hafer has been asked to go among the junk dealers and see what they will give. When the new central fire s ation is built in the shadow of the new city hall, the old apparatus, if not disposed of by that time, will not even be stored, but cast out upon vacant lot to succumb to the power of the elements. The most of this apparatus is good for use, but a bit antiquated, and as nothing but the latest is used by the Little Rock department, it has to be set aside.
