Magistrate L. F. Cheek, who did not offer for reelection to the office of magistrate of Vaughine township at the last primary, owing to the fact that he was candidate for county and probate judge. will retire from active service as trial magistrate The vacancy, caused by the death of Magistrate w. D. Vance, was filled when J. H. Mann, the well known local citizen, was appointed. He will not be an active justice of the peace, however. Only two active magis- trates remain in Vaugine township They are Fagistrate Gabe Meyer and J. A. Frazier.
 There will be no changes in the office force in Sheriff Brewster's of flee and no changes are announced for any of the other offices in the court house. The only chance that was made by Sheriff Brewster for his second administration was the dis missal of Jailer Jack Holland, who will be succeeded by James R. Reid finger. 2
 Superintendent T. A. Stephenson, of the Jefferson County Hospital and Alma House, whose salary was cut by the Jefferson County Levying Court at it's first session last week from $100 to $50 a month, stated yes- terday that he would soon tender his resignation to County Judge C. M Philpot. He said that he would not do the "dirty work that is required at the aims house for $50 month and that he would "do most anything else to make living" rather than con- tinue there at such a small salary. The salary was lessened from $100 to $50 after the Levying Court had in- creased the salary of the county phy- sician, Dr. Asa Brunson. from $50 to $1O0, the opinion being that the county physician was unpaid.
 It is most likely that County Judge Philpot will name pr. A. Sacconi as superintendent of the county hospital and aims house in keeping with a recommendation made by the Levying Court at it's final session Wednes- day, the majority of the magistrates voting to recommend him for appoint ment in the even there as a vacancy at the county hospital. Whether Judge Philpot wants to name Dr. Sacconi or not, he will most likely follow the recommendation of the Levying Court. Dr. Sacconi was formerly superintend- ent of the county hospital, but wAs discharged by former County Judge James Gould. He has been employed in recent months as physician for the county prisoners at Tucker.

Foods That Bind
 Little Children
Start Them off Right With Good Laxative and Then Watch Their
 niat

Mothers are often unconsciouSly very careless about the d;et of their children, forcing all to eat the same foods. The facts is that ali foods do not agree alike with different per- sons. Hence, avoid what seems to cons,ipate the child, or to give it in digestion, and urge it to take more of what $ quickly digested.
 Ii the child shows a tendency to constipation it should immediately be given mild laxative to help the bowels. By this is not meant a. physia oh pun ga;tive for these should never be given to children, nor any, tn n;5 like salts, pills. etc. What the chlld requires is simply small dose Of the gentlest of medicines, such as Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, which in the opinion of thousands of watch fui nc hers is the ideal remedy for any child growing a tendency to con- st patton. So many things can hap pen to a eonstipated child that care is necessary. Catching cold, piles, headaches, sleeplessness, and many other annoyances that children should not have can usually be traced to constipa ion.
 Many of America's foremost fami- lies are never without Syrup Pepsin, because one can never tell when some member of the family may need il. and all can use 1t Thousands en- dorse it, among them the parents of Ernest Cash, Sycamore, Ga, and Mrs Carrie V.

"MUTT AND JEFF'

A whirlwind of merTment is sweeping down upon Pine Bluff and will arrive at the Elks Theatre next Monday There will be great do ngs. Mutt and Jeff with their interesting family of 45 singers, dancers and comedians will hold high jinks" for an engagement of matinee and night. Of course you've heard about them, everybody has, at least people who read newspapers. M llions of people taught at Bud Fishers clever car
 rooms every day, so you can imagine seeing them in real life-flesll and blood-is a great deal funnier than seeing shem in print. Especially so because there is a chorus of p un- usually pretty g rls to give color to the entertainment ncJ forgetting as sociate comedians and singers and a car load of gorgeous scenery. All ill all, Mutt and Jeff is quite the best musical comedy of the year.
