TAKE OFF THE FAT
WHERE 1T SHOWS.

Most women suffer from mucl hu-
initiation because Of great quantities.
of fat, so located that, no matter how
they dress, everybody sees that the5
are abnormal. This is the day OF the
slender figure, and fat women are
simply not tolerated either in business
or social anairs. Women may not
know it, but men when they see a fat
woman pass them on the street or in
public places make all manner of
sympathetic remarks about her. They
do not mean to be unknd or to seem
unman My but-it is natural for a. man
to dislike fat on a woman. Where fat
shows tae most there is where it must
be removed, and as quickly as posi-

MATERIAL FOR
 BRIDGES HERE

County Judge J. A. Lea is one of the happiest men in the county this morning, on account of receiv- ing two car loads of material for the new steel bridges, which he has been trying to build for over two years. The steel received is for the King bridge, and it will be put into place at once. Approach es for this bridge have already been practically completed and the lum- Der for the floor is on the ground, so that the work can be completed without delay. As soon as this bridge is completed. Judge Lea ex poets the material for the other bridges to be here and will endeav- or to have all of them completed if possible in time for the heavy fall traffic.
 Judge Lea has met with much difficulty in having the bridges built and has contracted with va rious firms, only to have them fall down on the job, until last sum mer, when he was opposed for re- election by I. K. Reynolds, the Republican nominee, it was charg- ed that they were only political bridges" and were never intended to be built. Finally the Joliet Construction Go. took over the contracts at the original price. and it now seems that they expect to fulfill them.

COMMISSIONER
 MOORE HERE

State Tax Commissioner Avery E. Moore was i'll Conway this morning, leaving for Sunday visit to his family at Enders, in the northern part of the county. While his visit is not exactly all official one, he called npon Asses sor w. w. Bishop and the two held a conference over the assess ment in this county.
 Dr. Moore states that the results of the commission $ work has been seen in increased and better equal ized assessments in many of the counties, and he believes the reve- nues will be much greater with out imposing any additional bur den upon the average taxpayer. He said it would be impossible for the board to make any changes in the assessments of parties in the same county, as that work would have to be left to the county board of equalization, the same as in the past. Alter all of the assess ments are made and equalzed. the commission will order such chang es in the various counties as will bring each county to the same average basis of assessment i'll the state.

RICE BOOSTS
 LAND VALUES

Harrisburg, Ark, July IT, There is not tract of land in this section that can be purchased for less than SIo an acre at the present time and much of the desirable land cannot be secured for less than S2o an acre. We'll informed parties state that by another year these lands will be selling from S2o to S15 an acre. The rice industry is responsible for this wonderful development. It has not been much over year since these lands were considered practically worth less for agricultural purposes. It is an open prairie country with small strips of scrub timber and bushes scattered through it. Many parties have bought large quanti- ties of 1t during the past few years for the taxes due on il.
 Parties securing the land in this manner are realizing a big profit OH the investment now as there are number of rice fields in the western part of the county ranging in size from 80 acres up to I6o acres. The rice is about knee high and is a rich green color. It is expected that there will be sev- eral thousand more acres in culti- vatlon next year.

VERDICT WAS FOR RAIL WAY
C. H. Kruse, Who Sued for S5o,-
 900, Gets Nothing.
and Gets Year in the Pen itentary.

Because he stole ten cents too much, Will Newsome must serve year in the penitentiary instead of getting off with fine and jail sentence, according to verdict of the jury rendered this afternoon. Newsome was indicted for grand larceny for having taken SIo 10 in money belonging to Robert Mar tin, another negro on the Arkan- sas river, few months ago. Had he left the extra dime behind, the offense would have been petit larceny, which is only a misde meanor and not punishable by a penitentiary sentence. Newsome claimed that the money was owing to him and he took this method of collecting it.
 The jury iii the case of C. E. Kruse against the St. l.. I. M. & s. By. Go. came in this morning with a verdict for the defendant. Kruse sued the company through his attorneys, Malloy Watkins of Little Rock, for S5o,o dam ages for injuries sustained in a wreck at Wither. poon last year.
 lKruse's home was in Chicago, where he worked as telegraph operator. He went in the tele- grapher's strike in 1907 and, after spending some time in Hot Springs, went to Malvern on Dec. I3, 1907. At that place he went on freight train caboose and while in the car, another train collided with the rear end, terribly injuring him. The plaintiff claimed that he was a pas senger on the train, and that he
The log cabin Democrat., 1909-07-17

paid the conductor B to ride 10 Texarkana. The conductor, how ever, testified that he allowed the young rider to ride free out of sympathy for him. The case hinged upon the question as to whether Kruse was a bonahde pas senger. The court instructed the jury that if he was not passen ger or that if he knew or had req son to believe 1t was a violation of the company rules for him to ride on the train the railway company was not responsible for his injur- ies. The defendants strongest point was letter written by Kruse to the conductor who carried him, in which he stated that he blamed himself for the conductor being discharged on account of allowing him to ride, and that he would recompense the conductor if he re- covered anything for his injuries
 The grand jury this morning re- turned nine indictments for misde meanors, making total of I2 for the session, and adjourned until Monday. R. A. Montgomery was excused from further service by the court.
 Jesse Bailey was excused from petit jury service this morning and J. w. Hodges was sworn i'll to fill the vacancy.

A. B. Hall PardOned.

A. B. Hall of this county, who served three months term in the penitentiary, following a convic- ton for involuntary manslaughter, was pardoned by Governor Dona- ghey yesterday, to restore his citi- zenship. Hall shot and killed Mrs. Emma Hearness on the Lit tie plantation on the Arkansas riv. CT in December, 1907. He appeal ed his case to the supreme court, but it was affirmed and he began the service of his sentence in March last, going unaccompanied to the penitentiary.
