KEEPS PROMISE

Hot Springs, April S9-Carry- ing out pact mad9 years ago with man now dead Chief of Police Moore has cast to the four winds at a spot where the grasses and flowers grow" the ashes of Judge Hammond, his bos om friend for many years.
 Judge Hammond was an ardent spiritualist. It was a cherished belief of his that the body should not be buried i'll the ground to lie and moulder in Oftime neglect ed cemeteries, but that crema- tion was the proper method of returning to the form of dust the human form. This belief he cOnfid ed to Chief Moore some years ago and the two entered into a SOL emn pact which provided that the survivor should have the body of the other cremated and the ashes scattered where t he grasses and flowers grow"

SHIPPING RADlSHES

Hampstead county is some pumpkins when it comes to rais- ing vegetables. The shipment of radishes alone from this point has been so great that today Ag- ent Lundy had to put into re- quisition a baggage car i'll or der to ship the red-topped. pro- duct. These radishes are shipped to all points north, DesMoines,
 Iowa, Lincoln, Neb., Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati and other places There is money in the raising of radishes. A barrel of this product will net S4 ,OO of about 23 bar rels to the acre. The railroad company will furnish a car ev- cry day during the radish season which is pretty good evidence that the crop is goo.i in this sec tion.-Hope News.

WILL HE TAKE IT?

A. M. Denman, county judge of Nevada county, has had his salary raised from 5000 to 5000 by the legislature. Knowing how the judge strenuously opposes all increases in county expenses. we don't believe he will stand for it The judge is the watch dog of the Nevada eXchequer and if you don't believe it just get a bill against that county and try him. It is due entirely to his frugality that Nevada county is now on a cash basis for the first time in its history.-Gurdon Times.
 Any misgivings Bro. Evans may have regarding the matter of the Judges standing for the raise will be dispel.ed by a careful watch of Clerk Bailey's warrant register for the next twelve months.\

The after effects of LaGrippe
are often more serious than the
