ADOPTS
 POPULAR STYLE

No mode of popularizing an article has ever attained the prominence that the little verse ads have The coun. try's heaviest advertisers such as Sapolio, DeLong Hook and Eye, Camp bells Soups, Gold Dust, etc, have all given up the long prosy ads, and now the bright, pithy little verses jingle in your mind so that, going into a store for some article you are bound to ask for the one that had the jingle.
 The Graphic has secured the ser vices of Wright Walker, whose poe try has appeared in this paper at different times, to write these little jingaes for you and we have made the rates on these line ads 50 that every merchant can indulge in them. Remember you merely say what you wish handled and Mr. Walker will submit the verses for your approval, his services cost you nothing.

Where there is complete and perfect digestion there is. of course. room for dyspepsia. And 1t s for various reasons more satisfactory to pre- vent dyspepsia than to attempt to cure 1t Fact is you must depend upon Nature for cure and Hodol assists Nature.
 Nature will cure sick stomach quicker than any medicine in the world-if you give Nature a chance But Nature cannot cure the stomach while the stomach Is overworked. That is in- possible.
 / In order to be cured the stomach must rest. That Is the point. And that Is what kodol Is for to rest the stomach. II dgests every particle of food for ;he stomach. so that the stomach has nothing to do but get we'll Then 1t gets we'll.
 You would he surprised if you knew how many persons have Indigestion And, of course most of them have dyspepsia, ultimately~~if they neg feet the indigestion. Then Nature Is in urgent need of assistance. And nervous dyspepsia ts terrible thing to those afflicted with it..
 Kcdol supplies this assistance just the same as in the early stages of indigestion. But time and more rest arc required for Nature to effect cure. It ia best not to wait until one gets dya. pepsia.
 Nearly all classes of people subject to in- digestion Healthy appearance outwardly is no indication of healthy stomach. Neither are sound muscles any safeguard against an unhealthy stomach.

ISLE OF SPICE"
 WE'LL SEASONED

An unjust criticism in the Little Rock papers were responsible for the presence of a small audience at the Elks Tbeater last night when the curtain went up on the first act Of that snappy musical production of The Isle Of Spice" But the nnme rit- cd criticism did not prevent those present from enjoying the many high class musical numbers and the lauga producing comedy which go to make up the Frazee show. It is another case of a dissatisfied critic, who judg- es shows lightly which do not appeal to his style of stage offerings, re- gardless Of the opinion Of satisfied public.
 There is nothing in the isle of Spice to merit the uncompiimentary mention given by the Little Rock press. On the other hand the per formance is about as good as any musical mixture that comes South. Mir. Wright of the Little Rock paper might have been justified In com plaining about the prices charged there, which were the same here, but as far as the show is concerned he was little too severe. The company is not an unusually large one and perhaps ought not to charge $l.oo for the best seats. Money is not so plentiful in this section, especially in view of the fact that the tail end of the recent panic Is just now gliding by. 4 dollar looks as big as q carri- age wheel to the average thcatergoer in Pine Bluff at this time, and the average theater goer, especially the man who goes out between acts, can get twenty beers with one of those carriage wheels. But that is not the point to be considered. The man with the dollar did get his dollars worth >of mirth and melody. It is doubtful If the man who paid one fifty got not necessarily mean that the show is an unsatisfactory one.
 k "The Isle of Spice" company is all that could ioe expected of it. It is unsteady a gem, with a strong, at tractive chorus and some Of the hard est working and best trained girls seen here in some days.
 The comedy of the three comedians spark1es throughout the two acts and although several of them suffered from severe colds last night, they did good work The song Glorious High ball' by Ava E. Lang was repeatedly encored. He is possessed of a voice Of remarkable range. Miss Elaine Von Theile, also scored a decided hit when she sang Peggy Brady" The qnartette work of MartZ, Theile, Watson and Williams is also deserving of special mention.
 "The Isle of Spice is we'll seasoned and ought to prove delicious dish throughout the South this season

ADJUSTMENTS.

@Mrs. Wiggs Of the Cabbage Patch
 The original Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" Is not quite as sunny soul as she was before Anne Hagan Rice discovered her to the world in her stories and since Anna Crawford Flexner dramatized her. Fame has made uneasy the head that once lay down so easily in the Cabbage Patch" of the Louisville suburb and insistent visitors eager for a bit of first hand philosophy oftentimes receive, and to say, first class scolding. Indeed the impetuous prototype of Mrs. Wiggs, not long since doused an ex- cellent society lady with water, and was summoned to police court where she was honoralbly discharged.
 T won't trouble notoriety, if notor- iety don't trouble me. They kind a put me in books and in stage plays until they're sick of it, but you all have got to steer clear of mo in per- SOu. .TNItf1Ih IhcU MTS, WEBS Ol 1Ouo. ville, to a reporter recently. Mean while the sale of Mrs. Wiggs and the Cabbage Patch's'and: "Lovey Mary" has gone into the hundreds of thous- ands and in their dramatized form the characters of the book are still more effective and entertaining. New York never took more kindly to any one than to Mrs. Wiggs, and for one hundred and fifty performances, the Savoy Theatre was crowded by folk seeking a surcease from boredom, Right in line with the excellence of books and play is the cast portraying the numerous exacting roles; Blanche Chapman, tMrs. Wiggs); Vivian Og- den, (Mis' Hazy); Miss Mary McMan- nus, Lovey Mary); Chas. Carter, (Mr. Stubbons) and a score of others have added new anl living stage pie lures to the gallery of the American drama. All the Cabbage folk will be seen here Saturday afternoon and night at the Elks Theatre.
