fathers were leaders in the War of
Cbe Revolution, one Of them having
signed the Declaration of Indepen-
denee.
Mrs. Ellison was fond and low
ing mother, a devoted and faithful
wife. Her lite illustrated the graces
of'par enoe, charity and unselhSh de-
yotion to duty. Sue WAS an efficient
member of the church and her un-
remitting zeal and loyalty to both
the Earnest Workers and tue Mis-
sionary societies leaves as a beanti
ful example which we should imi
tate. Therefore, be it Resolved;
That ito live in the bsarts Of those

 ARKANSAS BANK

Forrest City.-Several days ago a man calling himself w. Jones and claiming to hail from Lexington, Ky, arrived in Forrest City and, by his pleasing address and plausible con- versation, ingratiated himself into the confidence of several people. He was introduced to the cc~hier of the Bank of Forrest City and in the bank the alleged Jones deposited draft for $200 upon a Lexington bank and was given a pass book and pad of checks. He soon began to issue checks against this S200 deposit which were promptly cashed by the bank. Jones disappeared in few days, and the next heard of him was in Mem phis, where he was still passing checks on the Bank of Forrest City. It transpires that Jones is unknown in Lexington and no trace could be found of any funds to his credit in the. Kentucky city.

AN INTERESTING PAINT TEST

There is very simple and interest ing chemical test by which to detect impurity in paint materials. Thou sands and thousands of people, all over the country, are making this test. It is sure way to safeguard against the many adulterated white leads which are on the market. Any one can make the test-all that is needed is a simple little instrument which may be had free by writing National Lead Company, 1902 Trinity Building, New York, and asking for House owners Painting Outfit No. 49. The outfit includes also a set of color schemes for exterior or interior paint ing, or both, if you wish, and a book of specifications. No houseowner should make any arrangements for painting till he gets this outfit.
 One can't expect satisfactory paint ing job without pure white lead. There is a way to make sure you're getting a pure white lead-without testing it. See that the keg bears National Lead Com pany's famous Dutch Boy Painter trade mark, which is a positive guarantee of purity. Your dealer probably has this white lead. If not let National Lead Company know.

There are hardships in the country; struggles are necessary to wrest live lihood from the soil or from business in a small community. But every stroke can be made to count for per manence, comments the Columbia State. The food and the air are bet ter; mans independence Is more real, where he can own the roof that shel- ters him and the ground upon which he can grow his provisions. Every COW or horse added to his holdings is an increase of his capital Little by little, year by year he can, with indus try and good judgment, increase his store of worldly goods and give to his children tangible inheritance, foothold in their own land, an anchor age from which the shifting tides of trade cannot dislodge them And while such a family is living it's own life, solving it's own problems, it may en- joy the same literary and artistic pleasures, and the same general ad- vantages that the city family has.

Drew Revolver When Discharged

Newport.-Mayor w. R. Thompson of this city had a close call on his life recently in the council chamber, when the city turnkey and hose cart driver, J. A. Beard, drew revolver to shoot him, and was prevented by Deputy Sheriff McCuistion quickly grabbing his arm and taking the gun. The fire committee of the council, O. D. Watson and S. R. Phillips, had just been in consultation with the mayor and decided upon the dis charge of J. A. Beard for intoxica- tion and consequent inability to per form his duties. Beard heard of the meeting and went upstairs, previous ly placing his gun in his pocket. Officer McCuistion followed him, and was on hand when Beard, after ques- tioning the mayor as to what was the matter, and receiving an answer that he had been discharged, started to draw his revolver.

q am seventy-seyen years old, and some years ago I was taken with ec- zema from head to foot. I was sick for six months and what I suffered tongue could not tell. I could not sleep day or night because of that dreadful itching; when I did sleep it was from sheer exhaustion. I was one mass of irritation; it was even in ny-xscalp. The doctors medicine 'seelfed to make me worse and was almost out of my mind. I got a set of the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent. I used them consistently for twenty-four hours.

Municipal Ownership is a Failure.


 Batesville.-On account of the very indifferent service given patrons of the municipal water and electric plant of this city, the citizens are up in arms and signing petitions re- questing the board of aldermen to lease or sell the plant that it may pass under other management. Sev- eral propositions have been made to take over the plant by private capi- talists, but so far none has met the approval of the council. The service given here during the past six months has been such as to convert the strongest advocate of municipal ownership and the town is in dark ness and without fire protection considerable part of each month.
