AVOID HARSH DRUGS
Many Cathartics Tend to Cause In.
 jury to the Bowels.

If you are subject to constipation you should avoid strong drugs and cathartics. They only give temporary relief and their reaction is harmful and sometimes more annoying than constipation, They in no way effect a cure and their tendency is to weaken the already weak organs with which they come in contact
 We honestly believe that we have the best constipation treatment ever devised Our faith in it is so strong that we sell it on the positive guaran- tee that it shall not cost the user cent if 1t does not give entire satisfac- tion and completely remedy consti- patton This preparation is called Rexall Orderlies. These are prompt, soothing and most effective in action. They are made of recent chemical discovery. Their principal ingredient is odorlesS, tasteleSs and colorless. Combined with other well known in- gradients, long established for their usefulness in the treatment constipa- tion, it forms tablet which is eaten just like candy. They may be taken at any time, either day or night, without fear of their causing any in- convenience whatever, They do not gripe, purge nor cause nausea. They act without causing any pain or ex- cessive looseness of the bowels. They are ideal for children, weak, delicate persons and aged people as well as for the most hearty person.
 They come in two size packages, P tablets 10 cents, 36 tablets ? cents. Remember you can obtain them only at our store,-The R9xall Store. J. T. Sanders Drug Store.

Largely Attended Sporting Event.

A very largely attended and very enjoyable affair was pulled of last Friday night at the Red Gin. under the direction of Mr. Will Merwin, of the Iron Mountain depot force; Mr. Naccaro, of the Grobmyer Lumber & Feed Co.,; Mr k. E. Sellers. of Sellers & Scott; MT. Eugene Williams, of the Bank of Forrest City, and several other prominent citizens.
 The event of the evening which was pulled off without any of the usual preliminaries, was fight to finish between a brindle Boston bull terrier owned by Mir. c. J. Durivage, and handled by Mr. Harry Watson, and a vicious badger, captured in the St. Francis bottoms, and handled by Messrs. James Fondren and Mitchell Taylor. The fight was declared 8 draw after a fierce contest. The badger drew first blood but the "purp'' was dead game, and put up a fine scrap. But he was no match fol the wicked teeth of the wild animal and his own no less viseious fangs could make no impression on the badgers tough hide. All bets were declared of.

A correspondent in speaking of what The Times has had to say about the proposed repeal of the 4-wire fence law, thinks that our opposition" is caused from Hack of information. !" and that we should ''go way back and sit down. In the first place we do not know that our article could rightly be termed opposition, though in fact we are opposed to it, but it was rather in the nature of warn- ing to the people who are called upon to sign petitions to be careful about taking this backward step, but that If majority in value in the territory want 1t, they should have it. In the next place, we beg to assure our cor respondent that we are perfectly fa- miliar with the situation, we think It is not new one. All countries have had pretty much the same con- ditions in the beginning of progress, and the same objections have been raised from time immemorial, and will continue to be raised. As to Ego ing way back and taking seat, or as the Democrat correspondent puts it, keep hands off. ;" we think our correspondents are fair minded men and will bot h concede it not only our right but duty as county paper to discuss to the best of our ability any and every question which affects the public welfare, no matter what our personal or pe- cuniary interests may be. We concede our ignorance as to how a majority of those proposed to be af- fected feel about this matter, or how they stand on the question, or how they would vote if the proposed re- peal were submitted to them at the polls, but some have expressed their opposition within our hearing, and have made the statement that it almost amounts to contiscation of their property, and that they are op- posed to it. We oppose it on general principles only. There may be con- ditions of which we are ignorant that would cause us to change our minds. but We do not think SO.

PROFESSORS FIGHT
 ABOUT A WOMAN

Berlin. February 11.-(Special.) )-The peaceful old University of Heidelberg has suddenly become hercely a2itated over the feminine question, and two oi it's most eminent professors are about to fight duel on the matter.
 Last week Herr Arnold Ruge, in lee ture on political economy, spoke some what severely of the new woman's move ment. which, he said, was promoted by old maids or unsuccessful wives. He was not aware that in his audience was Frau Weber, wife of the professor or thai name. and prominent member of the Woman's Emancipation league.
 She requested Professor Ruee to With draw his statement but when he ex- pained that he had not the women ol Heidelberg in his mind, and that he hae referred to the movement In general, Frat Weber retorted that he was guilty of ar unworthy subterfuge.
 Professor Ruge. in leaving the hall went to find Professor Weber, and asked him whether he agreed with his wife, Il so. whether he would kindly name his second. The husband accepted the chal' lenge.
 Meanwhile the academical council has interposed to have the affair settled peaceably. It Is reported, however tha' the duel will shortly take place. The in cident has caused the students to divide into two camps, and duels are now aimos' a daily occurrence.

FiuaI TrInI Arranrement.

Rome, February 11-(Special) Judge Bianchi, who has been appointed to pre- side over the Camorra trial. has gone to Viterbo to make the final arrangement n ts in connection with the trial which be- gins toward the end of February. Ow- ing to the difficulty of lodging and feeding the numetous witnesses, the majority of whom are very poor the judge has requistioned from the mayor the use of some public buildings, which will be converted into dormitories. As to the feeding. arrangements have been made to supply cheap food from kitch- ems specially established. As the trial will last over six months the court will only sit on four days of the week so that the jurymen and counsel VII not be overtaxed.
