To Abolish Puhiic Drinking Cups.

The use of the rublic drinking cups on trains and in railroad sta tions in Arkansas viii be abolished by an order of the Arkansas Rail- road Commission, the order effec- tive May 1, 1912. The order was passed by unanimous vote of the commission at 6 recent meeting. and has the approval of the rail- roads of the state ana the State Board of Health.
 Ia making the order, the mem 'bsrs of the commission said they believed 1t was a step in the fight for the prevention of the spread of disease. which would receive the hearty endorsement of at least 95 per cent of the travelling public. The passage of the order means that after May l all persons trav- cling on trains fn Arkansas will have to equip themselves with in- diVidual drinking cups.
 Such a rule is already in effect in all the adjoining states and in other states throughout the Union.
