 This will give Carlisle four hardware establishments, how ever Mir. Adams will make a speciality of heavy hardware, ma chinery &c., of which Carlisle is spendid market. He is thor oughly progressive and wide awake and we welcome him to our little city.

sessor will ever see this report and you must assess your prop erty at what you would sell same for, not under auction or forced sale, but at it's true and real value. Unless the people tell the truth about themselves and property it will be useless to give any report at all, for the census should show the exact facts.

The country at large knows, without investigation, that the tariff, directly and indirectly, does affect the cost of living. And if an unasnwerable illustra- tion is wanted, let congress pro- mitigate, though the vast channels of publicity at it's dis posal, the daily prices in the city of Detroit and compare them with the daily prices in the city of Windsor, Canada, just across the river from Detroit. The daily differences range from p to 30 percent. Does anyone believe that the Detroit prices could be maintained if the peo. pie in that city had a free market in Windsor. Kansas City Star.

Farmers, Attention!

V OU will all agree that he is SYS a fool who kills the goose that lays the golden egg. Take heed that this does not apply to us on the cotton crop for 1910. The crop of 1909 at 10.500,00 bales brings 15c and yields $751; 5OO,00O; the crop of 1910, if 14,- 100000 bales. will sell for Sc and yield S560, ,00O, ,000-a larger crop by 3.5O0.00O bales will yield us less by S27, 800. Why is this? The old law of supply and de- mand. You well know that when any commodity is plentiful. 1t IS cheap, and when scarce it Is high.
 We urge you to give this mat ter your careful consideration when planning your cotton crop. anift you find you are increasing your ac..eage then put all of the increase In corn or hay. Mani festly, if there is ample cotton to supply all spinners, and still leave little, you can not expect the competition and high prices, as if there is just little less than the normal need requires.
 By what rule shall you figure? Set apart land enough to grow all your corn, hay, hogs and mules, and then grow on the balance as much cotton as you can. If this is done all over the South, we would be willing to guarantee general prosperity, and good price for your next crop.

From Hon C. P. Newton.

Please let me say a word in your columns relative to my can- didacy for State Senator. 1 am fighting the best 1 know how to win this contest. 1 want the people to know that the issue in this race is not solely one be- tween Mr. Oldham and myself. 1 would have had no opponent had I been less faithful to the whole people of my county in the last Legislature. The Lonoke Courthouse Ring has marked me for slaughter simply because 1 was faithful to the common peo- pie of Lenoke county in my pub lie service, and for the additional reason that they believe I will do so again if elected. I have not talked with a single individual who does not admit this state of fact. If I have to eat the stale crust of abject poverty the rest of my days, I shall be the friend and servant of the whole people, rather than the tool of rings, clicks and clans. It is for the people to say.
 Yours faithfully,

HOW FAT WOMEN CAN

Fat shows a preference for the alb

quiet spots-just the places where it
can show the most, or worst. What
is to be done exercise and diet-are
they the only alternative? On the
contrary, they seldom do the work.
A better plan for reducing the fat
is to use the Marmola Prescription
Tablet. One of these after meals and
at bedtime will produce the requisite
reduction without bother, delay or
harm In few weeks you can be

of age has just fallen heir to lit
tie fortune, which, although it amounts
to but little at the present time, will
grow as he grows and when he be-
comes of age and is discharged from
the home and starts life's battle for
himself, he will have over two thous-
and dollars to begin with.
The money coming to him is part
of Lee county estate and it will be
held in trust until the child is of age.
He came near missing his inheritance
for it was some time before he could
be located, but after long search
the child was found and identified and
he will come into his property.
The child's mother, Myrtle Rich
ardson, was daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Althiede, both deceased and
in settling up the estate of her par
ents, guardian Was appointed for her
on account of her being an inmate Of
the hospital at Mount Pleasant. AT
forwards she became all inmate of the
Longview State Hospital for the in
sane at Cincinnati, O., and died there
in September of last year.
This left her infant an orphan and
the child which was born in the Gin
cinnati Hospital was taken by the
Children's Home and is still there,
The child was born Dec. II, 1908.
At the death of the mother, her
share of the Althiede estate. which,
amounts now to S761 reverted to her
baby boy and search by relatives
was rewarded in finding the child in
Cincinnati The little nest egg will
amount to almost $1,000 when the
child becomes4o age and will be quite
a sum for 81 year old man to start
/ life with.
| While the hospital authorities were
! trying to place the identity of the
| child in Lee county, relatives here
were trying to locate the child, and
/ both have succeeded.
