TEN FEET or WAFER
 C0MIHC DOWN RIVER
Big Rise Due to Heavy Rains in Okla llOma and Northwest Arkansas
 Recently.

Reports from points as far north as Fort Smith say the Arkansas river is rising rapidly and that about ten feet of water is coming this way from the Upper Arkansas. The govern ment report issued last night at sev- en o'clock says the Arkansas will rise several feet at Dardanelle wtiG- in the next forty-eight hours.
 Heavy rains have fallen in Oklaho- ma and Northwest Arkansas for the past several days. The river began rising here yesterday, the rise being due to the heavy rains in this imme-. diate section the night before. The government office at Little Rock says there need be no fear of flood at this time, unless heavy rains fall in the Upper Arkansas regions.

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message suggesting an amendment to the Pure Food and Drugs law in it's relati on to Prepared Medicines, does not refer to such standard medicines as Foleys Honey and Tar Compound and Foley Kidney Pills, both of which are true medicines carefully compounded of ingredients whose medicinal qualities are recognized by the remedial agents for the diseases they gre intended to counteract. For over three decades Foley sssHoney and Tar Eompound has been standard remedy for coughs, colds and affections of the throat, chest and lungs for children a11 for grown persons, and it retains today its pre-eminence above al! other preparations of it's kind. Foley Kidney Pill are equally effective and meritorious. W. L. Dewoody & Go

A BIG Fire at asburQh

A disastrous fire visited the village of
Irasburg, last Friday evening, which re-
suited in a property loss of nearly
$40, 900. The blaze originated in the
basement of the general store of the late
c. w. Wheeler, and is supposed to have
been caused by an over-heated furnace
The fire spread rapidly, and as there is
no water system it was soon beyond
control. There was a high wind blow
ing which, together with the great depth
of snow, made the fire fighting very
difficult
The buildings destroyed were the
Wheeler store, the residence and a fine
new barn, together with two sheds used
as warehouses, and the county court
house, which was an old landmark, and
was the last of the old county building s
before the county seat was moved TO
Newport The building was over rs
years old, and was being used as a town
hall. All the records were saved. The
Cushman house, in which the county
clerk lived, was also destroyed. The
insurance is placed at 100000, about
$14, 600 being on the Wheeler property.

Canadian Reciprocity

In speaking of this reciprocity move
ment, President Taft made this dramatic
appeal in an address last Wednesday
evening"
"The Canadian agreement, if confirmed
by legislative action, will be fitting
close to century's controversies and
permanently establish good feeling and
commercial union between kindred peo-
Piles. We shall find rapidly increasing
market tor our numerous products
among the people of our neighbor. We
shall deepen and widen the sources of
our food supply in territory close at
| hand.
"Our kinship, our common sympathies,
our similar moral and social ideas, fur
nish the strongest reason for supporting
this agreement.
Canada is our neighbor for three
thousand miles. We have not always
acted toward her in manner most con-
ciliatory or with due regard to her SEN
sibilities. She has become great coun-
lIy-luuSSu a uettlOu. NhS SduoSS 10 W
use no forts or battleships. She does
not attack us and never will. She ex-
tends the brotherly hand of friendship
and proposes closer relations with mu-
tual benefits. Ought we to decline? The
last words of Mckinley urged accep-
tance l am proud, as son of Ohio, to |
bring forward for approval and effective
action, measure carrying out the policy
which he proclaimed and made his own
at the acme of his great career"
Notwithstanding this, it must be con-
,eded that the farmers OF Vermont will
be great sufferers, for time at leastl
should reciprocity go into effect with
Canada. In some respects there may be
good results, but as far as agricultural
products are concerned we doubt if our
armers can compete with those across
he line. Products over there are much
over than here and ifthe duty is knocked
off Vermont will be flooded.
1t is suggested that Vermont farmers
get busy and send protests against the
movement to our congressional delegates
At Washington.

1t is affection that drives men to hard

comforts and luxuries. 1t is affection
that urges unmarried men to ambition
for mothers, sisters, or girls whom they
hope to marry.
In busy lives they find opportunity to
make love evident and there are plenty
of women wha believe themselves blest
beyond there deserts. There are many
also who have no taste for a wholesome
diet but crave the sentiment that often
means so little. They are not normal
beings. but they manage to scatter a
good bit of misery among those connect
