LAND SUIT IS
 SENT BACK HERE
Case of Guy McDill and Others Against Gabe Meyer and Others Appealed from Jefferson Circuit Court,
 Reversed by Supreme.

In the Supreme Court Monday the case of Guy McDill and others against Gabe Meyer and others, appealed from the Jefferson circuit court, was re- yersed and remanded The case was appealed to the Circuit Court by Attorney Creed Caldwell, counsel for the appellant.
 This case involves the construction of deed executed by Corne1ia F. Mcdonald, conveying certain land in Lincoln county to her son, Matthew F. McDill. The habendum contains the following: Tn case the said Matthew F. McDill shall die without children lawfully begotten, then the title to the property herein granted shall revert to me, the said c. F. Mo- Donald, to my heirs, etc., otherwise to his lawful children.''
 The question presented is whether or not title in fee simple passed to McDill or whether the clause con- tained in the habendum above quoted restricted his estate to one for life This court holds that, as the grant ing clause conveys the estate "tc Matthew F. McDill' alone, and nc words of inheritance are used, the re- servations contained in the habendum define the extent of the grant and are valid. It follows that. upon the deatt ' of Nc Dill, title in fee simple vested
 in his heirs, the plaintiffs in this sec
 ton. Reversed and remanded, witl

CARNEGIE MEDAL
 FOR zElSLER
Movement Started by Rev. John $. Cal h0un. Who Declares Act of Fred E.
 Zeisler Was the Acme of Courage.

X movement has been started to se- cure Carnegie medal for the family nf Fred B. Zeisler, who lost his life Saturday night in the tragedy on the Cotton Belt bridge at Rob Roy, near Pine Bluff, but whose heroic action saved his wife from being hurled to 8 terrible death.
 The movement has been started by Rev. John s. Calhoun, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, U. s. A.. of Little Rock, who declares that the courage.
 The facts warrant the conclusion that Zeisler could have saved himself when he discovered the peril of the party on the bridge that night. but in- stead of leaping to safety he seized his wife and threw her from the dan- gerous track and then tuned to as- s:st third member of the party, when he was struck by the engine and instantly killed.
 'Dr. Calhoun says it is not infre- quent that medals are awarded where the hero lost his life, the medal going to his wife or other members of the family as treasure of priceless value.
 Rev. Calhoun, assisted by Rev. E. C. Browning conducted the funeral services of MT. Zeisler Monday, and 1welt upon the heroism which had cost the life of the young man.

sNicknackitorlAn."

London shopkeepers' slang Is dis. lect in itself and one that is always changing. What, then, is "nicknack- ttorian?" We know not the word to- day; but, looking recently through some old law cases dating about a hundred years back, I was puzzled to find it applied in all good faith to describe plaintiff in the sherif's court. On further search it turned out to be a piece of forgotten cockney slang for :. dealer in bric-a-brac.
 The evidence showed that this plain. tiff kept a sort of old curiosity shop in which he dispensed "mummies," poisoned arrows, the head of King Ar thurs spear and genuine manuscript of the first play acted by Thespis and his company in a wagonv' The de fendant, woman, had actually bought and paid for some of these rarities. but she died after having com. missioned the embalming of an orang outang to add to her collection, and for this her executors refused to pay. Counsel for the defense poured con. tempt on the mummy of the orang outang and called it stuffed mon. key"
 But the "nicxnackitorian" won his case. His profession was more taking than his name.-Manchester Guardian

Badness Due to Living Minute

 Many people, even unto the present day of grace, consider badness due C hereditary influence.
 Nothing is further from the truth Badness is caused by the onslaught Of a minute organism which secretes Itself beneath the scalp and attacks the roots of the hair-causing it to lose it's life and fall out.
 This organism cannot be got rid ot except by the free and persevering use of Newbro's Herpicide.
