 "Yes, it was On to Ganadal' with a lot of American farmers and poultry men, who didn't find Gods country good enough for them; but, caught by get-rich-quick ads. placed by the Canadian government with American newspapers, these gulls sold out and pulled for the Eldorados of Sas- katchewan, Manitoba and Alberta.

YOUR friends will come to your humble cot, and sit on the porch with you, and talk of the tariff until they re hot, and help you to smoke and chew, 7" says an exchange, but when you are needing a helping hand to carry a trunk upstairs, your friends will scat ter to beat the band, each bent on his own affairs. Your neighbors will lean on the back yard fence, and help you to roast the law, and shoot fiery ar rows of eloquence at efigies made of straw Your friends are thoughtful and kindly men, the salt of this bloom ing land; but when you are trying to catch hen, there's none to lend a hand. Your friends will help you to dance and sing, and eat up your cake and pie, and they'll give advice and perhaps they'll bring some flowers to you when you die. That man should cherish and love his friends the law of this fife demands, but he who wins in this world depends alone on his own two hands.

Bell Telephone Coming.

The Tribune has it from a thoroughly reliable source that the Bell Telephone Go. will soon have one of it's long dis tance stations in Green Forest.
 The survey for the line has already been made and it is expected that con- structon will be commenced shortly. The line will come from Eureka Springs, where the Bell people have a station and will run to Kensett to connect with main line on the Iron Mountain railroad
 A party of surveyors were in Green Forest some three weeks ago and called at The Tribune office for some data concerning the town, explaining that they were employees of the Western Union Telegraph Company and was gathering information that might be needed in the future relative to the es- tablishment an uptown office. It now develops that these surveyors were not with the w. U. people at all, but were locating a line for the Bell Telephone. A member of the party has returned from Kensett and gave The Tribune the inside" of the matter this week.

ARKANSAS CAN RAISE ANYTHING.

Fred H. Phillips, commissioner of mines, manufactures and agriculture, delivered an address in Little Rock last week on the subject of Resources of Arkansas. He referred first to the elevation of the state, which runs from 281 feet in the southern portion to 2, 340 feet above sea level in the north ern portion of the state. He gave the average rainfall as between 42 and 52 nches, which he declared was moisture enough to mature almost any crop that is grown anywhere. Of a population of 1, STA, 499 he said that 80 per cent is rural, which he declared to be healthy indication and thereupon made a plea for the rural home life. "Some young men, he declared, when they find themselves able to write a Spencerian hand and become expert at calculating g interest make dive for the crowded city to try conclusions there.
 Mr Phillips referred to the variety of soils in the state from limestone in the north to the black lands in the east and stated that all cereals could be grown in Arkansas. He called atten- tion to the fact that two crops of pota- toes can be produced in one year and said that the diveFSification of soil is such that Arkansas could build wall around the state and produce every thing needed for sustenance and could even produce what no other state can, such as diamonds. He referred to the possibilities of the 33, 824, 900 acres con- tained in the state teeming with the latent possibilities and related the ex- perience of boy in Montgomery coun- ty last year, who produced 165 bushels of corn on an acre of hillside land and another boy, who produced 50 bushels of corn on an acre of ground with noth- ing but goat to draw the blow.
 He gave deep blowing, diversifcation of crops, better cultivation and more scientific management as methods the farmers should keep in mind The cot ton crop of Arkansas last year, he de clared, amounted to $61, 504, ,720, and the proceeds from poultry $15 GOO, coo. He spoke also of the advantages of se- curing a well-balanced feed for live stock, such as may be obtained by mix ing cottonseed meal, alfalfa, clover and other forage crops. He stated that greater interest should be manifested in the growing of whippoorwill peas and lespedeza, Ca kind of clover,) to which, he said, the soil and climate are particularly adapted.
 Mir. Phillips referred to the work un- dertaken by his department in promot- ing interest in agricultural pursuits by means Of lectures and demonstrations throughout the state and stated that agriculture is fast becoming a part of the curriculum of the public schools of the state
 t0ver $375, 900 is annually expended by the agricultural department of the state in campaigns of education," Mr. Phillips declared in conclusion, ''and there is no other state in the Union can equal Arkansas in agricultural and mineral resources.

 Here is certainly good one. An Oak Grove man pursued one of his neighbours cows for one-half mile at high speed, endeavoring to seize the brute by the tail and give vent to his excitement by beating her with nick ory. Near the end of the course he discovered that it was not his own ani- nal as he supposed but one belonging to a neighbor. The COWS looked so much alike that it was with difficulty the excited man was persuaded that he had chased the wrong COW.

ONE WAY OF SAVING
 A BABY--FREE TO TRY

The mother does not live who would not do all in her power to keep her child healthy, but often she does not know how. So when a doctor of standing points the way all can afford to listen.
 It is an accepted fact that nine out of ten of the troubles of infants and children is intestinal. You notice it by the fact that the child is consti- pated, it belches, is peevish and cries. Don't give a remedy that contains an opiate, because the child will get in the habit of needing it, and don't be- come alarmed and run at once for a doctor
 Try scientific laxative first. Give small dose of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, the remedy that is intended

THE newspaper of today is read for its news rather than for it's editorial
 articles. It is not quite so certain that editorials have ceased to be desired; and it is possible that the editorial pages have lost their popularity and their influence because they have lost their force and their conviction, and because there is not felt to be behind
 them that sturdy, personal character as shown by newspaper writers of former days. In this day We believe news is preferable to editorial comment and yet the editorial page is all right if the comment is brief, to the point, and cover a wide range of subjects. We don't believe editors should presist in riding hobby horses or go to seed on any one subject. Better cut the editor ial page short and give the people news.

 Few medicines are of any benefit for rheumatism, but Mir. Sanders tells plainly what Dr. Miles Re- storative Nervine did for it. One ounce of salicylate of soda added to one bottle of Nervine makes an cx- cellent remedy for rheumatism, which IS now known to be a nerv- ous disease and therefore subject to the influence of medicine that acts through the nerves, as does
