entrance on the stage in a crawl, for she

Grace Sherwood. also of the Columbia
Players. had to sign the contract for her.
The next year she shot right up the list
and secured a contract for three times

was higher than the typewriter girls In

understand what respect and obedience
mean. The trouble Is that too much
is left for the teachers. They can con-

be firmly laid before the boy or girl is
of the age to take an educational course.
The schools are doing their part, despite

FINDS TAINTED
CANNED GOODS

Little Rock, July 9.-Dr. Horace
Rice, the pure food inspector of the
city, has begun a crusade which will
rid the state of considerable bad
canned goods which has appeared on
the market In making his rounds
yesterday he encountered some cam
ed goods which had suspicious look
in small store which was operated
on the outskirts of the city by for
mer convict. He opened a can of
pineapple and found it to be several
colors, principally red, and when the
can was opened steam arose. An
! other can produced even more bright
colors than the first. The grocer at
first stated if the pineapple was bad
he would exchange it, and offered to
eat some of it himself. The health
officer suggested a demonstration be
given, but the grocer backed down.
He then turned his hand to sardines
and can after can of decayed fish was
opened The entire stock of canned
goods was ordered taken to the city
dumping ground and the dealer would
have been prosecuted had it not been
for his ignorance and the loss he had
already suffered through the destruc-
ton of the goods.
DR.. Rice learned where the goods
had been purchased, from one of the
leading wholesale concerns of the city
and next paid visit to that inStitu-
ton. The wholesale merchant glad
ly informed the officer he would make
good the loss to the small grocer and
destroy any more of the same kind
of goods he had. The wholesaler was
informed that the little grocer was
not to blame in these cases, but the
man who brought the goods in and
disposed of it, and he would be the
one prosecuted in the future if any
thing more of this character was
found in the city. DR.. Rice says the
canned meats and fruits, in many in
stances, is much worse than the other
goods which is being offered for sale
| in the markets, as the fruit is canned
