THE BOND ISSUE

Juige A. B. Grace in letter tc Mayor A. c. Jordan reviews the ben efits that will accrue to cities and tSwns of Arkansas if the bond issue amendment is passed at the coming election. The positive assurance of the eminent jurist is that the pas sage of Amendment No. 15, which will give cities and towns the right to issue bonds for public improve ments, will in no wise directly Or Indirectly injure of or affect the res idents of the rural districts, but that the residents of the cities and towns of more than LOGO inhabitants will ! alone deIfray the expenses of the Improvement authorized under tAe measure.
 This assurance of Judge Grace, who has, never misled the people Of this county CT district and who has al- ways spoken for the best interests of tle people of Arkansas, ought to con- vince those who have not given the amendment much thought or who are opposed to it because of misrepresen- tation Or misunderstanding, to vote for it.
 The bond amendment is the only salvation for the struggling munich pali>ies and with bond issue privi- lege Arkansas will make strides that it has never enjoyed in it's history.
 Judge Grace, in his letter of Mayor Jordan says that Arkansas is prac- tically tied hand and foot by the Constitution of 1874" There was never a truer statement made. Judge Grace, like other progressive spirited citizens of this state, realizes the great handicap that cings to Arkan- sas. The cid constitution needs re- .building, especially that part of ii that pertains, of municipalities.
 The bond issue for Arkansas cities and towns would release them from legislative bondage and would mean benefits to the business interests of the state.

 weighing four hundred pounds to his shoulders and carries it with ease.
 Although twenty-two years past the scrlptural allotment of three score ana ten, Baptiste has the appearance Of man of forty-five, which is the age of his son. His hair. eyebrows and mustache are black. His step is brisk and vigorous. The muscles of ms arms, back and shoulders are hard and resilient as steel. His hear Ing is slightly impaired, but he reads the newspapers every day without glasses.
 His hard work daily was the means by which he obtained his great strength.
 Listen to and profit. by what this marvellous triumph of physical con- servation says:
 Every morning I get up at 6 o'clock and work for half an hour with dumb-bells and tension exer- clsers. Then I exercise all of my muscles without apparatus, bending my body from side to side, and kick Ing and hopping with my legs. Af- forwards, winter as we'll as summer. 1 take cold bath. My dumb-bells are of wood, the lightest I can get.
 Many of the young men whom see old before their time know how to exercise properly and are members of athletic clubs. But they do not Know how to take care of themselves Proper habits are more important even than exercise.
 Il have never smoked a pipe, cigar or cigarette or tasted liquor, for I re- gard the habits of smoking and drink ing as the most wasteful drains uDon strength and youth. Many young men Keep late hours and do not give their bodies sufficient rest I have always obtained proper repose by going to pea not later than 9 D. m., thus get ting nine hours of sleep. Early to bed and early to, rise certainly makes man healthy, and may make him wealthy and wise.
 Food is a prime consideration in maintaining younth. I eat meat not oftener than once every two or three days, as l think too much of a flesh dlet tends to clog the human boiler the stomach. When I do eat meat. l take porterhouse steaks. I break fast on apples, cantaloupes-lots of the latter. My other meals consist usually of beef broth and vegetables. of which my favorites are kale, spin ach, turnips and celery. I eat no po- tatoes, for the starch in them pro- duces fat.
 Above all, I have noticed rowing about at night in search of amuse- ment. My home life, with music and singing, affords me pleasure enough, with an occasional visit to the opera bought home in the country for tEo sake of fresh air and walking, go to my office every day because have the habit of working, which keeps my mind occupied and con- tented.'

THE LIQUOR QUESTION.

In considering this question let it be observed that there are some phases of it upon which we are all agreed And, first, we are all agreed thSt the liquor traffic, as we have It, is an evil, and one of the greatest we have to deal with. Nobody viii deny this, ilot even the liquor dealers themselves. Again, we are all agreed that it ought to be, and must be, op- posed. God does not endorse evil neither should men, Hence it must ke opposed by all honorable and ef- feCtive means.
 Now 1 submit that the liquor qdes- ton is both a moral and a political question.
 Moral Question.
 That it is a moral question goes without saying, because it affects the moral welfare of mankind. Drunken ness is a sin and crime expressly
 
 inseparahly connected with the liquor traffic. Nothing ic more degrading and ruinous to man than the excess i've use of liquor. It's invasion of the home, of the church, and of society is demoralizing alike to them all; it is their common enemy, and they must fight it. And their great weap- on is education, or moral suasion; moral suasion in the home, moral suasion in the church. moral suasion in the school room. The home must train against this evil, the school must teach against it, and the pulpit must proclaim against it in the solemn voice of warning and entreaty.
 Political Question.
 But this is also political govern mental question. It is such because the liquor traffic destroys the wealth of the nation and the peace and lives of it's inhabitants. It is the function of government through judicious leg islation and administration, to main tain peace and order in society, and to protect it's citizens in the rights of property. life, and the pursuit of happiness But. nothing operates more effectually to defeat f@these very ends of government than the liquor traf- fife. It breeds every form of vice known to mankind, and is the most prolific source of poverty, lawless- ness, crime and death. It boldly in- yades the halls Of legislation and by brihe and intrigue and intimidation attempts to dictate the laws of the land, and openly defies them when they do not suit it. The government is therefore forced to deal with this evil, which is no less her enemy than It IS the enemy of the church.
 Church and State.
 Hence we see that both church and state must meet a common foe. But what weapon shall we place in the hand of the government? Moral sua- sion That is the strong weapon of the church, but not so of the state. The most powerful weapon the state can Wield is the law If you deny her this means of defense, you send her forth helpless against her greatest foe. Will you do it No. Put the mighty instrument of the law in her hand, backed by healthy public sen- timent, and she does not fear to meet her enemy Then as a church mem- Der I will take moral suasion in my right hand and the law in my left hand, and with these two most DOW erful weapons in the armory of God Il drive this enemy from my home and from my country.
 Then have I not the moral and legal right both to raise my voice and
