once in the afternoon did he com
plain of being weary and at five
thirty while placing a sheaf of
wheat in the shock he fell over
with the wheat falling across his
face. The man VINO was work

Osler isn't the only man who turns down old age. In the business world the "young man" is always the one who picks the plums. It is an age of "new-thought," new talent" etc., and the old man is passed by in the race.
 One of the first signs of coming age Is the appearance of gray hairs. When you see them, act promptly. Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy will correct this sign, which so
 often deceives people into thinking that age is really upon them. It is a

NOW LETS HAVE PROGRESS.

NVV HA IHOthESS. The sub committee from the Jeffer-
 son County Democratic Committee l. will meet today to canv9 ss the returns
 from the recent county and city pr;-
 mary elections, held jointly on last Friday. The unofficial returns were announced on the night of the day of balloting and although many of the candidates were disappointed the final figures were generally accepted with cut much Soreness" on the part of a najority of the defeated ones.
 The election was fair and square. Tbere were some minor irregulari- ties in some of the precincts because of the failure of the magistrates .o swear in" the judges, but outside of this unimportant formality there can be no complaint, Naturally some peo- pie find fault, especially after an election, but it is moro becoming to accept defeat gracefully and bow to the will of the party-even though some of the victories are sonnet me bitter pills to swallow.
 The election had it's many sides. One faction was .arrayed az inst an- other. personalities were indulged in and charges and counter charges were made, but with it all it is nothing but politics and after the election all iii !, feeling and wranglng should disap- per. Forget that you ever favored one man and opposed another. Con- sider the best interests of your city ]. county and state and the welfare of your people. After all this principle Is more important to you and the commonwealth than who should fiji | one office or anther. Every man should have the free use of his own opinion and vote. The constitution of the United States g.ves you this right. There should be no interference with freedom in any way.
 
 Tie Free Bridge. which should not hsve been a campaign issue. was in- Jected into the campaign by the Tax payers Protective Association and others. The enabling act, authori.- ing the creation of the improvement, district for the purpose of securing the Free Bridge, was passed by the last Legislature. Despite the claims of the opponents of the measure to the con trary 1t was the wish of the me iority of Cur people that such a measure pass. Congress has authorized. th ouSH SptS-dl Dlil, Ine COnSCruc- -s tion of the bridge across the Arkansas river at or near Pine Bluff. The Bridge ie now up 10 the people and it is not fir the Leg. stature to say whether t sh II be built or not. The defeat of Judge Kerwin is not an ex- pression of the sentiment Of the peo- pie of this county on the Bridge oues- tion. If anything the sentiment as expressed at the p7lls on l9st F. idav was favorable to the Bridge. Tte business men and property owners of this city. as we'll as no few of the property owners ill the country voted for the unendorsed cardid ates for tie eg' stature The vote in the city alone te!le the tale when the Br dge ques-
