white felts with black trimming arc also

In Regard to Shapes
In the selections of shapes for mourn

Something About Treatment
A few years ago it was thought best,
as far as possible, to send patients to
sanatoriums, where they could have sys-
tematic cure Great efforts were also
made to obtain change OF climate,
and the suffering invalids were sent
from home at great expense and hard
ship. At present, owing to the results
that have been obtained. it has been
found that home treatment in many
cases can be carried on successfully,
provided it is done inteIligcntly, and
from the beginning.
A great deal is said about the OPEN
air treatment OF patients. Life in the
open is one of the surest means OF ar
resting the disease and great adjuvant
to recovery. 1t has been found that

A correspondent has written telling
of the good results which she has OBJ

an onion poultce is the same which

thing Is to keep up continued hot ap-

throat. This can be accomplished as
well with hot milk as with the admin

much less discomfort to the mother or

Another correspondent writes that

Removing supsrauous Hair
In times past | have given formulas
for the removal of superauous hairs,
with directions how to use them: but
m the light OF experience do not now
think it wise to do so. as ali depila-
tories act by 4 burning action on the
skin, and unless used with greatest care
they are liable to cause injury.
Electricity is the best means of re-
moving superhuous hairs ii they are
scattered and are coarse, but if there
are many fine fuzzy hairs it is not
we'll to use it, as it promotes the growth
OF these. and II is long. painful, tedious
process that one has to go through be-
fore the face is cleared Of its hairy
growth. Therefore. electricity should
only be used in those cases in which,
except for the coarse hairs, there is
no tendency to hairy growth on the
face.
Dangers of Electricity
If IT is decided to employ electricity.
be sure that the one to whom you go
for 1t understands the business thor
oughly; il not. the result will not be
successful A tiny needle must be in
troduced into the root of each hair,
then the electricity is applied and the
root is destroyed. II the needle docs
not enter the hair follicle exactly the
root will not be destroyed II the cleo
tricity is applied too strongly or for
too long time. the result will be
scar.

 The charitable institutions are not the only ones which will feel the knife. The board of the Uni versity of Arkansas is to meet with Governor Donaghey Saturday and some cutting will thgn be done on the University appropriation. The reduction is a necessity and every thing which can be spared will be forced 10 go. It has been agreed by Governor Donaghey and the memt CTS of the various boards that the standard of the in sritutions must be maintained, but every dollar must be saved. Pres. Tillman of the University oi Ark ansas is already here to attend the meeting, and has held several con ferences with the governor relative to the proposed reduction.
 The State Normal is not to es- cape the knife, and early next week this board will meet with Gov ernor Donaghey and discuss what can be cut out there.

SERIOUS QUESTION IS RAISED
Heirs Challenge Genuineness of
 Alleged Deed
Which Conveys Large Body or Land from M. Strickland, Sr., to His Son,
 M. Strickland, Jr.

Dispositions of a rather sensation al nature taken by the plaintiffs at Little Rock yesterday in the case of G. R. Strickland, ct al, against M. Strickland, IT,, were filed in the office of Circuit Clerk A. M. Ledbetter this morning. This suit involves a large body of land near Bristol, in the eastern part of this county, which was owned by M. Strickland, ST., who died in Feb ruary, 1908.
 Alter the death of the elder Strickland, M. Strickland, IT,, his son, filed for record a deed pur- porting to have been signed by M. Strickland, Sr., conveying several hundred acres to his son and name sake for a nominal consideration, at the death of the grantor.
 The deed, however, did not bear the signature of the elder Strick- lands wife, and this irregularity was probably one cause of the suit which was brought by the other heirs. It was witnessed by and acknowledged before l.. A. Vince less, a justice of the peace, who died several years before the deed was filed for record.
 M. Strickland, Sr., was the father of two other children, both of whom are dead, but both leav- ing number of children. These heirs, immediately after the alleged deed was filed, brought suit to re- cover a two-thirds interest i'll the lands and the case was transferred from circuit to chancery court.
 It now develops from the nature of the dispositions taken yesterday, that the plaintiffs will not only charge that the deed is irregular, but that no such instrument was ever executed by M Strickland, ST. This contention will be based upon the blank form upon which the deed is drawn. It was exc cuted on a blank bearing the inn print of Allsopp & Chapple of Little Rock and dated in the year 1898.
 The plaintiffs yesterday took the testimony of J H. Alisopp and Fred w. Alsopp, members of the firm, and both testified in positive Ian guage that their firm did not go into the blank business and never sold or handled warranty deed forms until the latter part of 1900, or more than two years after the date of the purported deed in con- troversy. They also testified that the printed form which was ex- hibited to them could not have been in existence before 1901, as they had none printed before that time. The original deed filed for record by M. Strickland, IT,, was introduced in evidence, and, ac cording to witnesses, the deed, while dated 1898, showed on the date lines the figures "19o. for the year, but these figures had been written over or erased wher- ever they occurred.
 The dispositions show that al though the defendant with his at torneys, J. H. Harrod and Sam B. Crabtree, were present, they did not cross question the witnesses. The plaintiffs were represented by R. w. Robins and P. H. Prince.
 M. Strickland, Jr. is prominent banker of Beebe, and formerly lived at Bristol, having made sev- eral races for sheriff of Faulkner county. He is now also mayor of Beebe.

BIG CUT IN APPROPRIATIONS
Pruning Knife Applied to Charity
 Institutions.
Nearly Half Million Taken from Bud- University And Normal
 Come Next

Little Rock, May 2I.-Special After spending an entire day with the state board of charitable institutions in executive session, Gov. Donaghey announced last night he had succeeded in saving $40, ,ooo out of the appropriations for the institutions, which will go a long way toward the prevention of a deficiency in the lreasurye The board took all the matters up thoroughly with the superinten
 dents of the three institutions, who agreed to the cut, and stated they could be made without in any way lowering the efficiency of the in
 stitutions. The blind school will receive a cut of $50, 900, the deaf mute institute cut of 500, 900 and the insane asylum SIoo, GOO. The quality of the food to be served at these institutions will be the most of the saving. There will be no more fancy steaks, and high liv- ing of any kind, plain meats being purchased, though Governor Don aghey says therewill be good qual
 ity and plenty of it, without the institutions being placed on hash basis. The board of charities will take up at its regular me ting
