REPUBLICANS
 DOUBLED UP

 publican state tickets, two de- legations to the National conven tion at Chicago, two state organ. lzatlonS, two favoriteS for the Presidential nomination, that is the condition of the Republican party in Arkansas. The Regul- ars, or Steam-roller organization held forth at Kempner's theater, while the RooseveltianS met at the city Auditorium. There was a much larger and more compact body of the Regulars, but they did not exceed the other crowd in earnestness of purpose.
 The Roosevelt convention, into which the Roosevelt state league was resolved, possessed the greatest popular interest as that was the rebellious body declaring war against the Remmel machine and the omination of Clayton ism. The Roosevelt delegates from Logan and Johnson coun- ties were the only ones that at tempted to secure admission in- to the Regulars, and, being turn ed down promptly, they went over to the other convention where they were received with open arms.
 The Roosevelt convention nom- mated the following state ticket; for Governor, A. $. Fowler, of Pulaski; for secretary of state, c. c. Sparks, of Hot Springs; for treasurer, H. K. Cochran. of Little Rock; for State Auditor, B. F. Ruble, of Jasper; for at torney-general, J. A. Teller, of Little Rock; for Agricultural Commissioner, W. U. Balkman, of Paris.
 A complete new state organ ization was formed with j. A. Conner. of Little Rock chairman and J. A. Tellier of Little Rock secretary. One of the rules adopted provides that the term of office of any member of the Central Committee or any office thereof shall automatically cease whenever he becomes an appli- cant for an appointive ofice.'
 H. NJ. Trieber of Little Rock and H. w. Patrick of Russellville were elected presidential cleo tors at-large, and the following committeeman at. large:-J A. Conner of Little Rock, $. A. Moseley of Pine Bluff, Gus Strauss os Hot Springs, and F. k. Patrick of Olvey; alternates, Minor NJ. Markle of Jouesboro, Harry M. Trieber of Little Rock; pr. W. A. Bradley of Jasper, and A H. Miller of Helena.
 Districts: 1st.-J. F.. Kennedy of Marianna, F. c. Stover of Jonesboro; 2d--H. NJ. Culver of Walnut Ridge, and R. NJ. Ramey of Satesville; 3d-L. E. Harbet of Green Forest, and W. A. Bradley of Jasper; 4th-John H. White of Russellville, J. Bruce Cox of Lit tie Rock; 6th-S. C. Cassell of Hot Springs, J. A. Moseley of Pine Bluff; t7th-E. DeLaughter of Boughton, H. A.

Best Business Creator.

As business creator, what is there
better than advertising? Have you
ever asked that question yourself?
The millions that advertising has
made for merchants are uncountable.
yet there are business men who even
now don't believe In advertising, just
as there are people who still think it
is safer and more convenient to travel

slow oxen than In a Pullman palace

This delicious fruit is not only used

tured into kirschwasser and maras-
chino.
The fresh fruit, after being pitted, if
an equal quantity of sugar is added
and stirred until thoroughly dissolved.
VIII, If canned and kept in a cool place,
Keep as well as if cooked, and one may
have a fresh dish of cherries or a
cherry pie in November.

OF pitted and sweetened cherries. an
other spoonful of batter, Steam in hot

Genuine Maple SUGAR.

There are few people outside the
maple sugar making districts, says a
writer in the Country Gentleman; who
really know what the genuine article
tastes like. The superior flavor thus
spoken of is probably due in a de-
gree to the same causes that make
strawberries eaten off the vine and
cherries consumed on the tree so de-
lectable. The writer quoted, however,
puts some of the blame for the poor
flavor of commercial maple sugar on
the willy wholesale dealer and mixer"

CANADA'S PROSPERITY.

The New York Times of March %
1917 in an article dealing with Cana
da's progress, says:
AT the present moment eight ship.
loads Of European immigrants are
ahoat for Canada, while there are
signs that the outward movement
which Is customary with us during
labor troubles will be marked this
year. There is no such startling rec
ord OF our loss to Canada. Our citi-
zens quietly slip over the border in
groups or trainloads, but their going
IS not advertised.
There is no mystery why Canada
is the good thing the United States
used to be. 1t is because Canada is
following in its neighbor's footsteps
that it is repeating the fortunate ex-
perience which its neighbor is envy
ing. even while deliberately turning
Its back on the teachings of the past.
A fortnight ago the Dominion budget
speech reported the unprecedented
surplus of s39,O00,0OO, and on Thurs
day the Government passed through
the Committee on Supply credits of
$3S,00O,000 fer railways and canals.
With this assistance the railways
themselves are both enabled and COM
PEELED to increase their facilities. Ac-
cordingly we find single road allot-
ting ten millions for work Of its own.
Naturally the Canadian newspapers
contain announcements calling for
fifty thousand men for construction
work. This influx is apart from those
Americans who go with money in their
pockets obtained by cashing in their
high-priced American lands.
"A st. Paul dispatch says that with
in fortnight two thousand carloads
of farm animals and machinery have
passed toward Canada, the property
of men who expect to pay for their
farms with the first crop"

HELPFUL HINTS.

A pine pillow or sweet grass basket
may be renewed by steaming them.
Paint may be removed from window
glass by the application of hot vine-
gar.
Turpentine will take ink stains from
the most delicate fabric. Soak the
stains over night or longer.
Sew lead weights into the hens Of
table covers or runners used on a
porch. The wind will not disturb
them.
A nice delicacy for luncheon is a
crisp cracker spread with cottage
cheese and garnished with cherry
on top.
When carrying freshly-frosted
cake, put few toothpicks into the
cake to keep the covering from stick
ing to it.
Dainty little baskets for flowers or
favors may be made from old straw
hats. These will delight the children,
and they may help to make them.
II you have any faded roses or other
flowers that need refreshing, use
little water color paint and, brush.
The results will more than please.
When preserving peaches, take the
broken bits and can together. This
may be used (put through ricer) for
ices, ice creams and other desserts.
The disposal of garbage in country
places and small towns where no pro
vision for its removal is made, is
constant worry. All substances which
decompose may be put into small
hole in the garden, and after the hole
is filled cover with dirt and forget all
about 1t, nature will do the rest Tin
cans, glass and crockery cannot be
thus disposed of, as they are insight
ly. A hole in the ground is a good
place for them if there are any hol-
lows and holes to be filed.
FlIbert Butter.-Remove the coarse
threads from hazel or filbert nuts and
put through the meat grinder. then
pound with pestle in wooden bowl
until smooth. Cream as much butter
as there is of the pounded nuts. add
the nut paste gradually; season with
paprika and use for sandwich filling.

DOCTORS ADVISED
THE HOSPITAL
Mrs. Herberger, Who Would Not
Consent to Go There, Finally
Relieved At Home.

st. Louis, Mo.-Mrs. Mary Herber-
ger, of this city, says: 81 was sick in
bed for ten weeks, with womanly
troubles, and had four of the best
doctors waiting on me.
Every one of them said 1 would
have to go to the hospital and have
an operation, but I would not consent
to that.
l thought I would give Cardui a
trial. When 1 began to take the first
bottle, could not turn over in bed,
but had to be lifted.
Before finished the first bottle, my
pains were leaving me, slowly, and
soon l was out of bed and walking
around.
My pains have not come back,
since. l weigh $50 lbs. and feel fine.
Cardui saved me from an operation.

use Of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in few days noticed a marked
change. The eruption on his cheeks
was almost healed. and his shoulders,
arms and breast were decidedly bet
ter. When he was about seven months
old, all trace of the eczema was gone.
During his teething period, his
head and face were broken out in
boils which cured with Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. Surely he must
have been a great sufferer. During
the time of teething and from the time
l dropped the doctors treatment,
