 The order reached Pine Bluff ta1 days ago and there will be no more danger of taking into your system germs from the fingers of the man who just preceded you at the window where the donations of the American people toward reducing the postal deficit is taken into charge by the servants of Uncle Sam.
 It is intimated in Washington that the danger experienced by those who indulge in kissing as noted in recent publications in the east, has some thing to do with the determination of the first assistant postmaster general to look into the possibility of the pos tai department being held responsi- ble for the spreading of various and sNndry horrid bugs said to 5o the primary cause Of the majority of the ills 10 which the flesh is heir.

Uncle Sam Issues Order That Gumm- ed Side of Stamps Will Be
 Placed Upward.

The next time you purchase stamps from Mrs. Lena Smith at the Pine Bluff postoffice note that when she passes out the evidences of postage paid they will come to you with the general side up.
 There's a reason for it, too.
 First Assistant Postmaster Grand- field has been looking into this germ theory pretty thoroughly, and he has decided that at the stamp window at the postoffice in the average city thousands of hands rest on the ledge every day. Stamps with the gummea side down are placed on the edge, the people lick them and thus take into their system millions Of mi crobes. .s

SMYRNA NOTES.

Sadder and more solemn news than
the death of Mrs j. M. Wendell on
last Tuesday has never reached this
place. Not even among her rela-
tives was the sad news more shock
ing than among her friends here. She
made a host of friends here, both
black and white, a number of years
ago during her service as public
school teacher and strengthened that
friendship from time to time as she
usually spetn her summers here
working among the young people,
giving entertainments for the ben
eft of the churches, and counting
nothing dear to herself that. would
benefit another.
In the afternoon of the first Sunday
in April memorial services of Mrs.
Wendell will be held by representa-
tives and friends of both Baptist and
M. e. churches. The exercises will
take place in the M. f. Church in
whose interest she labored so hard
last summer and on whose wall now
hangs a lovely clock with her own
name engraved upon its face as the
donor.
Among those who went from here
and attended the funeral were: Mes
danes Sarah Shane, Eva Perry,
Jane 9lackman, Clara Jmes, Mry
Tucker, Misses Eslella Norman, Jul
liza B. Smith, Messrs. j. B. Ridley,
Kirk Malone and R. L. Perry. Sickness
prevented many others from attend
ing.
Miss Ella Gregory wishes to try
the Globe for three months.
