FROM FAR AND NEAR.
Lovers Come to Have Mrs.
 Paxton Tell Fortunes,

Way back in the hills about six miles from Green Forest and only a few rods from nowhere, there resides one of the most noted fortune tellers in about seven states. Her name is Mrs. Angeline Paxton andsthe path leading to her home is one of the most thoroughly beaten in the country. People of all sizes and ages daily visit her home to have their fortunes told, coming from far and near. Crowds of young folks have been known to come from Eureka Springs and Rar- rison to have Mrs. Paxton inter- pret their troubles in love and various other affairs.
 While Mrs. Paxton can tell anything, she makes speciality of catering to needs of lovers both young and old, and it is related that time generally proves the things she tells to be "only too true.';
 During recent years Mrs. Pax ton has been doing quite a large mail order busin ess, requests coming in right along from peo- pie in a dozen states to have her write them foretelling the future events affecting the lives of the writers. Recently she received one of these requests from party in Hong Kong, China. So it may be seen that Mrs. Paxton's fame is by no means confined to the neighborhood in which she lives. She has never advertised, her only means of securing busi- ness being through her satisfied customers.
 She can tell fortunes any old way that fortunes are told, but she prefers the good old coffee cup to any other method. When the cup has been "turned," you may expect to hear her read with precision and dispatch an inter- pretation of many questions that have been sources of vexation of both body and mind. The Tribune has never tried it, but we know others who have.
 Mrs. Paxton is now 54 years old and has been telling fortunes since she reached the tender age of nine years, and she never enjoyed better business in her life than she has today. She charges a quarter generally, but she is not inclined to be hard on people in close circumstances In such cases she has been known to tell two for a quarter. Extra we'll pleased customers have paid her much more, while letters have quite frequently contained fifty cents and in rare instances as much as a dollar.
 However, she has no idea of ever making a fortune out of the business of telling fortunes. Telling is good enough for her.

THE cultivation of vegetable

THE cultivation of a vegetable or flower garden makes man healthier, wealthier and wiser than when he spends his time on the street corners, and puts to good use much space which would otherwise be used as a place for tomato cans and other household refuse.

It cured J. c. Lanham, of War Standing, also William Voll, of sos Ellis son St., Louisville, Ky, who had the trouble for fifteen years.
 However, if you have stomach trouble you want to know from, personal experi- ence what Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin will do for you.

sometimes tender and thoughtful-a

but he was not long IN warming up.
His presence alone is entertaining. A
big man to look at and when in
motion he attracts, His lecture is
filled with anecdotes and stories en-
tertaniugly told. He makes no pretense
OF being an orator nor does he i'm
press one as such. He does however
hold attention. Sometimes and some

brilliantly. "First one thing, then an

How to Cure
Liver Trouble
Keep Your Bowels Regular and Your
Stomach Sweet

People sometimes imagine when they
have liver trouble or are bilious that the
main thing TO do Is to take physic.
Taking pills and keeping your bowels,
regular are two very different matters.
The use Of a violent cathartic does not
mean the cure Of constipation or the es-
adjustment OF regular movements. A
physic is an emergency remedy, but new
er a bowel treatment. II the bowels do
not move regularly there is a reason
deeper seated than the mere clogglng up
that is removed by a dose Of salts or
pills.
When that drowsy. tired feeling. with
