BELLAMY THE WINNER
Returns Show His Election For
 Railroad Commissioner

". K. S5drridge of Black Rock has conceded his defeat in the race for failroad commissioner from the Northeastern district. Geo. W. Bellamy of Mammoth Spring is now conceded to be the winner of the race, which has proven one of the closest races of the recent tprimary. For several days the race hung in the balance, with Surridge a little in the lead, but later returns show Bellamy's election.
 Mr. Surridge claims to have carried more counties than Mir. Bellamy and that he would have larger delegated vote in the con- vention, but that Bellamy had re- ceived plurality of the votes and that therefore he conceded Balla- my's election.

How to Prevent Gray Hair.

When gray hairs first begin to appear.
prompt action should be taken to nour-
ish the scalp and prevent their further
spread. Regular brushing, massage of
the scalp and. occasional shampooing
help to prolong the vitality of the hair
and preserve its natural color. But 1T
is absolutely essential that these meth
DDS be assisted with some form of vital
nourishment which the decaying roots
OF the hair can absorb. Numerous prep
arations for this purpose have appear
ed on the market during the past 20
years, but many of them have proved
more harmful than otherwise. 1t is now
agreed by competent authorities and
those who have put Il to the severest
tests that HAYS HAIR HEALTH is the
safest and most effective preparation
for restoring prematureiy gray hair
and furnishing the right food to the
scalp It's constantly Increasing sale
and the fact that II. has held Its great
popularity for nearly n quarter of
century IL proof that this scientific
preparation does the work to the en-
tire satisfaction OF users. All reliable
druggists recommend II ana sell It in

chased from tho manufactures. Philo

Free Remedy For
Weak Bowels

There are two forms of bodily
cleanliness, the external and the in
ternal. The one is for your pride in
yourself; the other for your life and
health. Both are important, but of
vastly more Importance in the long
run is the internal cleanliness.
This IS one point that all should watch
bowels. Keep them clean and free from
distractions. To do this you must have
each twenty-four hours. If your system
does not do this naturally. in the process
of eating and drinking. then you must
obtain aid of some kind. After finding
out that cathartics. salts and such things
relieve you for a day. but bind you up
worse than ever the next day. then try a

Lord Rothschild, the great banker.
Driving in FIRING park, Lord Roths-
child's place in Hertfordshire, Eng
land, they would lark together like two
overgrown boys, even TO the extent of
MASKING in one another's hats in their
exuberance. To Lord Rothschild then
the prince was "Bertie." But the
week that he became king he was
heard to say, "Nye"-that was his pet
name for Baron Nathan Rothschild-
'it won't do now" He never was
''Bertie" again. and there was no more
knocking of hats over one another's
eyes. The friendship remained the
same, but the kingship had to be re-
spected.
as King and as Private Person.
An incident at Sandringham, King
Edwards estate in Norfolksh1re, show
ed how keenly he felt that as king he
belonged to his people and how closely
he separated the kingly from the per-
sonal identity He was attending the
parish church as king. A newspaper
photographer tried to step out into the
pathway to obtain a snapshot. A cou-
pie of detectives seized the man by the
neck and flung him back into the
crowd Edward VII. stopped, had the
photographer called and posed for him.
Later in the day Edward VII. was
sauntering around his garden as a
private person, enjoying a smoke after
lunch. The same photographer, deem
ing he was safe as a persona grata,
yentured over a fence for picture of
the king in private life. The king sig
nailed to his guard, had the man seized
and carried to the railroad station,
with word that he was never to let
himself be seen at Sandringham again.
King Edward was good fellow" A
few years ago one of his closest friends
was repeating to him something that
had been overheard as to the qualifica-
tons of George, the new king, to take
his place. King Edward smiled and
replied: ooh. that's all right! They've
never heard George curse"

WAS PRINCE OF do No uyo, o. -
"AiS When he was a
boy Of ten he was with his mother,
Queen Victoria, at Balmoral castle, in
the Highlands of Scotland At that
time the queen was quite a skillful
painter in water colors and spent
many days by the waterfalls and in
the glens making pictures.
One day while she was sitting at her
easel young Edward was playing
around her. The little prince sudden
" caught sight of Highland lad in
kits. The lad was making a sand
castle and adjoining it with heather.
yell No Dae That Againp
The prince advanced to him with
royal hauteur and asked for whom the
sand castle was being built.
For bonnie Prince Chairlie,'' was
the playful reply of the boy, who stood
with his hands on his hips to see the
effect of a thistle on the top story.
The lad had no idea that his inter
locutor was any different from any
other boy. The young prince, however,
determined to make it clear that he,
and not Prince Charlie, was TO be king
some day. He kicked over the castle.
The Highlander. glazing at him, said:
yen no dae that again.
It was challenge. The lad rebuilt
his sand castle very deliberately. The
prince waited until the thistle was
stuck on the top story, then kicked it
over.
yen no dae that q third timer
challenged the little Scot, beginning
to rebuild with even more elaboration.
The queen had been noticing the af-
fair. She set aside her-brush and pal
cite, but said nothing, only watched.
A third time Prince Edward kicked
over the Highland lads sand castle.
No sooner was 1t done than its killed
builder closed his fists and lowered his
head In another moment the two
boys were hammering one another.
The queen sat there and never inter
fered by word or act. The little prince
presently returned, weeping, bruised
and bloody nosed, while the rebel Gael
stood apart. To the little princes
plea for speedy justice and vengeance
the motherly queen merely replied as
she wiped the blood from the future
kings nose:
1T served you rightt'
One other boy who has long since
grown into a tall. sturdy Californian
told tales in former years Of an en-
counter which in his schoolboy days
he had in Scotland with the then
youthful prince. In this case, too, it
seems royalty was the aggressor. The
Californian, James Miller, was living
at the time in Scotland. AS James
was enjoying a donkey ride one morn
ing near the Firth of Forth the prince
passed by and-just for fun-pulIed
him out CT his saddle. Next moment
his royal highness found himself Civ
ing and taking blows with a plebeian
rather bigger than himself, who did
not spare him punishment. In after
life the prince often referred pleasant
" to the little mixup." He never re-
scented the drubbing he got, and once
ON learning that his former adversary
was in money difficulties went gener-
ously to his assistance.
It Was ''Bertie" No Longer.
Edward VII. was a man who felt
his dignity keenly. At heart he was
