STAGE Fr,ant.

Some alleged wise man across the
water says he can eliminate stage
fright with Il. simple operation.
He doesn't tell rs what the operation
is. He says it's simple. So is the
operation of the guillotine. And moth
ing could be more effective.
But do we want stage fright eimi-
mated? Do we want TO encourage
brazeD -mouthers and defiant orators?
Suppose all men were hardened and
fearless after dinner speakers w here
would we get the listeners:
If lot of so called actors should be
frightened off the stage and a host of
after dinner takers could be scared
stiff. wouldn't it he netter tor art and
humanity;
Eliminate stage fright
Certainty not.

Deafness is caused by an nfiamed con-

unless the inflammation can be taken out

PREVENTION OF TYPHOID
By the Substitution of Safe For
 Polluted Water Supplies

New York, Dec. 5.-Company presi- dents and other trustees of policy holders representing more than sev- enty-five per cent of the eighteen bi1- now in force in this country, are here attending the sixth annual convention of the Association of Life Insurance Presidents.
 The association was urged to pro mote campaign of educat ton against typhoid fever by pr. Allan J. Mo Laughlin, of the United States Public Health Service. For the whole Unit ed States said Dr. Mclaughlin, Hthe mum Der of cases each year preventab1e probably reach 175.000 and the deaths so avoided would total 16,2o0. In 1909 there were more eases of typhoid fever in the United States than there were cases of plague n India. in spite of the fact that India's population is two and one-half times that of the United States.
 'sThe annual 25,oou deaths from ty- pnoid fever do not represent our total loss. At a conserS alive estimate they are accompanied by quarter of a million cases of the disease each year These eases represent an average KIf- ness for each individual of four weeks, and probably six or eight weeks en- cupation. The economic loss is appafI- ing, and computing the value of the lives lost to the community, the cost Of medical attendance and hospital care, the loss Of earning capacity for many weeks. the decreased earning capacity and impaired efficiency due to sequelae, would reach-sa sum of not less than S100. .000. GOO annual1y-'
 In declaring that much of the ty- phoid fever in this country is prevent able, pr. Mclaughlin compared the death rate from that disease in fifteen large Northern European cities with

 s.No single measure in reducing ty- phoid fever on a. large scale approach ee the effect of substituting 8, safe for a polluted water supply,'' he said. As an instance of thise wholesale saving of human life the reduction of typhoid fever in Pittsburgh may be cited Since the installation of the filter plants there has been an annual saw ing in the city of Pittsburgh of 400 lives from typhoid fever alone"

It is expected that at that time the steering com .mittee will be ready to report upon the various bills which it has in process of construction and to tell the senators-elect just what it is hoped to accomplish at the session of the leg islature.
 It is possible that the senators at that meeting will caucus upon the senate c1erkship. Many of the sena- tors are anxious to get the matter off their hands.

THE LIFE OF TRADE

There can be no progress or de- velopment within any state or city without free competition. Pine Bluff is good town Jefferson is a rich county, but the growth and progress of this county and city is being re- tarded and our progressive spirit is being assassinated by the Iron Mountain Cotton Belt monoply, It seems that these corporations would sacrifice the growth and prosperity of our city and county Ill order to rrevent competition and swell their dividends. We see frem the press that Mr. Gould, of the Iron Mountain, Is touring France, richly enjoying the tr rbute exacted from this people,
 When che of our farmers on the other side of the river would come 10 Pine Bluff or bring here the pred uet of his soil he must pay tribute to the Goulds. Have these railroad corporations the rightAto shackle gay cDmmNlity? Will sSthe progressive citizens of this county longer submit to these corporations directing our local policies and interfering with the growth than Pine Bluff. She has as

Our courts, both Federal and State, have declared their independence of this railroad trust, have said no more injunctions and fer their they de- serve the highest praise of our cit izens, yet the railroad compan es would have them all recalled because of their stand.
