THE BEST KIND OF
 SCHOOL ADVERTISING.

In writing a letter to his home pa per, the Paragould Soliphone, James U. Thompson, student of the State Normal school, has hit upon the best possible method of advertising his school. He doubtless did not write the letter with that end in view, but it is fact that hundreds of circulars and catalogues mailed into Greene county would not have the effect of inspiring the confidence in the Normal and stim- ulating the desire to attend the insti- tuition as this brief and simple com mendation coming from a Greene county boy:
 "The enrolment in the Arkansas State Normal is IFS at present, and those who are keeping up with the constant stream of new students as- sert that there will be 200 before the holidays.
 President Doyne, and in fact every member of the faculty, is working hard to make the school come up to the standard set by it's friends. The school is workshop. Everyone is kept busy. Athletics is receiving attention but no one whose standard is low in class can play on any contest team. The boy or girl who comes here for play alone soon finds himself in the wrong place.
 'I am delighted with the school and believe every young teacher or every one expecting to make teaching a pro- fession, ought to come to the Normal. Every influence is for the best develop ment of the boy or girl.'
 There are more than 200 county in Arkansas and there are students in Conway from practically every county. These newspapers, as did the Soliphone, would gladly pub fish short letters from the students who have come to Conway to school, and if all the students would follow the example of Mir. Thompson the ben eft to Conway educational institu- tions would be incalculable.

HUTTO STOCK DESTROYED.

Fire was discovered about II: 80 o'clock Monday night in Freed Hutto's store. The alarm was given and the volunteer fire department soon had two big streams of water playing on the flames, and in about 20 minutes had the fire out, but not before the in- terior had been gutted. The loss will aggregate from $15,000 to $20,000, with $12,500 insurance. It is not known how the fire originated, but is supposed to have caught near the roof, and probably by rats. MT. Hutto was at his farm in Jefferson county and had been absent about a week, looking after his farm interests.- Morriton Democrat

Jeffries and Johnson will not de-

plated when Eddie Quinn of Spokane

that there will be no prizefighting in

omists, was similarly afflicted. Mr.
Davis was convinced and proved il
on paper that the price of wheat from
that time forward would be normal al
demonstration and looked we'll in
print, but apparently it has been for
gotten by everybody but Mr.. Hill
Again Sir William Crookes, Brit
ish economist, was certain in 1898
that the world was then facing a
wheat famine Because of the recent
furry in Chicago many excellent peo-
pie are convinced that he was right
albeit a little premature. To allay
these fears some figures of actual
production may be quoted:
Thirty years ago the worlds wheat
production was about 2,000,000,0OO
bushels a year. 1t now averages about
100000 bushels. AS this in
crease is out of proportion to the in
crease in the worlds population it is
evident that wheat as food sub
stance is displacing other commodities
previously used. Increase in produc-
tion in this country has been little
more rapid than the average of world
increase. The American crop of 80
years ago averaged about 100000
900 bushels, and it is now about 600,-
100000.
There is not the smallest danger OF
shortage in supply. There may. and
probably will be, some slight advance
of average prices due to the exhaus-
ton of cheap lands. but there is nc
field for production that responds
with so much elasticy to the stimulus
of a slight increase in price. The
current debate has been thrashed
over 20 times since it began with the
famous theory of the ingenious Nal

A[PHONSOFROWNS
ON IMMORTALITY

Madrid, May 1.-The old night life
in Spain, with its music and dancing,
which has been such an attractive fea-
ture to American and other foreign
visitors to Madrid and the southern
cities of Seville, Cadiz, Ronda, Nal
aga and Barcelona, is thing of the
past. A few years ago the government
decided that these night entertain
ments were demoralizing the youth
of the country and King Alfonso is
sued a decree closing music halls,
cafes and other places of amusement
at 1890 a. m.
Formerly these places never closed
their doors. Night serenading parties

who marched through the streets
stunning their guitars and singing
beneath their sweethearts' windows
until daylight, also were prohibited
after midnight. The orders aroused
much hostility, but were strictly en-
forced, with the result that much OF
the old-time night gayety which the
Spaniards love has disappeared.
Even this change has not satisfied
the king and the government and a
new royal decree, designed to raise
the tone of the music halls, has been
issued. The women of the stage are
prohibited hereafter from entering
that part of the building intended for
the public, or otherwise coming In
contact with the audience. They are
not allowed to lodge in the same or
adjoining buildings, and private
rooms are forbidden. The fines for
infractions are heavy and three Of
lenses forfeit the proprietors' licenses.

ing the necessity of organic union of
the proteids and minerals for assim-
ilation and nutrition. He then went
on:
"The half-starved, rachitic, mourn
full little old men and women fed on
pasteurized milk distributed under
supposedly philanthrophic auspices,
are sad examples of this. Numerous
obscure, unanalyzable, undefinable,
morbid states are en-
countered in the wake of pasteurized
milk--the aggregate expression OF
want of proteid and minerals in or
ganic union. 1t is alleged that the
pasteurization of milk prevents diar-
rheoa in children and is a cure for
this affection. The worst and most
|incurable cases of this disease seen at
the Demilk dispensary during the
summer months are those of young
infants exclusively fed on pasteurized
milk from the public stations. These
observations have been made by DR..
Babcock, Dr. Tyrrell and myself for
years. The children recover on raw
milk.
Calves Grow Thin.
"Of eight healthy calves a farmer
fed four On pasteurized milk and four
on raw milk. The four fed on raw
milk throve and gained weight The
four fed on pasteurized milk develop
ed diarrhoea and lost weight. The
experiment was then reversed. The
four we'll calves, formerly fed on raw
milk, were not fed on pasteuriZed
milk. They then developed the same
ailment and lost weight The four
calves formerly fed on pasteurized
milk were then fed on raw milk. The
disorder ceased and their weight in
creased.
"In a downtown dispensary where
pasteurized milk was used for years
by the physician in charge, his sue
cessor reported that SO per cent
of the children treated had ricketts,.
The most shocking. distressful cases
of malnutrition encountered in my

who have been fed exclusively on
