DOCTOR PRESCRlBES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

81 wish to let you know OF couple
OF recent cures which l have made
by the use OF the Cuticura Remedies.
Last August. Mr. OF this city

severe skin eruption. twas dermatitis

slight eruption and would affect most
parts OF his body. thighs. elbows.
chest. back and abdomen-and would
terminate in little pustules. The Itch
ing and burning was dreadful and he
would almost tear his skin apart, try
Ing 10 get relief. / recommended all
the various treatments | could think
OF and he spent about fifteen dollars
on prescriptions. but nothing seemed
TO help him.
in the meantime my wife. who
skin trouble and who had been try
ing different prescriptions and meth
DDS with my assistance. told me she
was going TO get some OF the Cuticura
Remedies and give them a fair trial
But as / did not know much about
Cuticura at that time I was doubtful
whether II would help her Her skin
would thicken. break and bleed. es-
pecially on the fingers, wrists and
nrrs. could do nothing to relieve
her permanently. When she first ap.
piled the warm baths OF Cuticura
Soap and applications OF Cuticura
Ointment she saw a decided improve
ment and in a few days she was CON-
pletely cured.
Il lost no time IN recommending
the Cuticura Remedies to Mr.. .
and this was two months ago. I told
him TO wash with warm baths OF the
Cuticura Soap and 10 apply the Cuti-
cura Ointment generously. Believe
me. from the very first days use OF
the Csticura Remedies he was greatly
relieved and today he Is completely

10 SUBMIT THE
 AMENDMENT Grandfather Clause To Be First Proposed Constitu- tional Amendment of
 Present Session.
HAS BEEN SUSTAINED
Legislators Make AdmissiOns-SchOOl Districts Are Consolidated
 Lump Sum Appropriation.

Little Rock Ark, March By the adoption |, of the Hardage resolution in the Senate Tuesday afternoon the first proposed constitutional amend ment of the session will be submit ted This resolution provides for an amendment to the constitutional qualifications for electors by the in corporation of the celebrated grand father' clause. 1t is, similar in it's effect if not exactly in words to the Robertson resolution which passed the Senate and will now be permitted to lie over in the House it is almost copy of the Louisiana law, the on- cestry clause of which has been sus- tained by the Supreme Court of the United States. The educational fea- ture of the law was appealed from Mississippi and sustained by that tribunal. Similar laws are in force in South Carolina and North Caro- lima. There were only two votes in the Senate against it, Christian, the
 lone Republican and Holland, of Greenwood, Sebastian county, who said he opposed it not as the friend of the negro, but as the friend of the white man who would likely be de- prived of rights under it.
 It was admitted on the floor of the Senate by Senators Holland and Keel that it is necessary for the white man to see that the negro is counted out, and the sentiment of the Senators appeared to be that such measure as his would insure the white men of Arkansas peaceful control of their own affairs without owing their ele- vation to the Ethiopian or the Mon- golia Senator Keel predicted that the time is coming when the South will be confronted by a race war and he believed this al means of deferring if not preventing it. Senator Hol- land said that TO nc~C.c $ permitted ito stay in Greenwood over night, "but," said he, i've can control him without this. We can count him out as we have done and as I have helped to do, and I am not ashamed of it, but this bill will cut fout some good white men,"
 The House after "a sharp fight pass ed the Hughes bill providing for the consolidation of contiguous school districts, which had been recommenG- ed by the Educational Commission. Representative Barker, pleaded that it would be an injustice to the black belt There were only fifteen votes against it on the final passage.
 The largest single appropriation bill ever introduced in the Arkansas legislature, without being itemized, was offered in the Senate by Senator Oldham of the Charities committee, being $41O,000 for the support of the insane asylum. It is understood that 1t has been approved by the governor. The bill is likely to pass the senate, which is already on re- cord for the Deaf Mute lump sum ap- propriation, but the House is expect ed to demand that it be itemized, as it has demanded of the Deaf Mute bill.

 w. Caldwell, of the firm of Caldwell
 & Draike, former State Capitol con- tractors, left Little Rock today for Chicago after spending several days in the city looking after his business interests here. Mir. Caldwell limps about with the aid of a crutch. due to fall ill which he sustained seri- oals injury to the fragments of his knee. Mr.: Caldwell is prosperous looking and says he is now prosper ing in spite of the set back he. secur- ed in the contract for the building of the Arkansas State Capitol He has just completed a $1,2O0,Oo0 court house at Youngstown, Ohio; is com pleting a $2,000,00O court house in Omaha, is building $4O0O00 hotel at Tulsa, Ololahoma; and has recently contracted for the construction of a. $500,000 hotel in Youngstown, a $49S.- 900 hotel in Louisville, and a $780, 900 school house in Hammon, Ind MT. Caldwell stated while here that he is confident the Supreme court will decide in his favor on the man. damus suit by which he seeks to col feet from the state the amount due according to estimates given him when the work on the building was stopped This amounts to about $35,- 900.
 For two years they almost had me- stated MT. Caldwell, land they kept me working 15 hours "a day to keep my head above water, but they could not sink me- I am going to come out all right in the end. All have ever asked for is square deal and believe the people of Arkansas will give that to me. This state owes me $193,00 for good work done on the Capitol, which with interest for three years, amount to about $235,- 000' Mr. Caldwell was closeted with his attorney much of the time while in the city, but he declined to make any statement of his conferences, saying they were of merely a private business nature

SUNDAY POSTOFFICE CLOSING.

A movement has been set on foot for the closing of the postoffice on Sun day, so as to reduce the work of the postotfice employees on that day to a minimum.
 It is not contemplated that the work in the postoffice shall cease altogeth- CT on Saturday night, not to be re- sumed until the following Monday morning, but only that no more may be required of the hard-worked em- ployes than Is necessary for the needs of the public,
 Enough men will be at work on Sundays to handle the incoming and outgoing ,maif and to accommodate the transient patrons who might be seri- ously incommoded if not permitted to get their mail on Sundaq The busi- ness men will still be able to get their important mail without calling ct the office in person, and letters dropped in the box at the postoffice will be forwarded as heretofore, with promptness and dispatch, but there will be no free delivery pr collec- ton of mail from the outside boxes, no selling of stamps and no transac- ton of business that can be avoided during Sunday in the postoffice Thus, though all the employees of the office cannot have full holiday ev- cry Sunday. they can so divide the work necessary to be done as to give each of them better chance to ob- serve the Lords Day as day of rest
 That the public recognizes and re- spects the desire of the postoffice employees to avoid, as nearly as may be. making Sunday work day, is evidenced by the favor with which the public has welcomed the Sum- day closing movement wherever the matter has been agitated. When left to popular expression the sentiment has been found to be almost unani- nous for a closed Sunday, and when the people express themselves that way the Post Office Department de- crees that their wishes shall be re- spected.
 Postmaster Furth will test the sen- timent of the people of Pine Bluff and if they are as generous and as thoughtful of the physical and spir- itual welfare of faithful and hard-
 working class, the postoffice em- ployes will have better opportunities for attending church on Sundays and for needed rest from their daily lab prs.
