THE SAFE LAXATIVE
 FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE

Most elderly people are more or less troubled with chronic, per sistent constipation, due largely to lack of sufficient exercise. They ex- per1ence difficulty in digesting even light food, with consequent belching of stomach gases, drowsiness after eating, headache and feeling of lassi- tude and general discomfort.
 Doctors advise against cathartics and violent purgatives of every kind, rec ommending mild, gentle laxative tonic, like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, to effect relief without disturbing the entire system.
 Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is the perfect laxative, easy in action, cer- tain in effect and, withal, pleasant to the taste. It possesses tonic proper ties that strengthen the stomach, liver and bowels and is a remedy that has been for years the great standby iD thousands of families, and should be in every family medicine chest It is equally as valuable for children as for older people.
 Druggists everywhere sell Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and $100 bottles. If you have never tried it send your name and address to Dr. w. B. Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Mon ticello. H., and he will be very glad to send sample bottle for trial

 Little Rock.-The proposition to submit to the voters of the state in March primaries the question of a presidential candidate was tabooed by the Democratic state central com mittee.

After Senator Clarke had given his reasons to the committee the resolution was with drawn and the committee declined to take any action relative to the matter. The committee adopted resolution allowing the candidates for governor, prosecuting attorney and congressman be allowed representation at the vot- ing precincts. The convention date was set for the first "Wednesday in June.

Daily reports are to be compiled by the county committee and sent to the state superintendent, who is to make public a synopsis of the reports.

HAVE YOU SUSPECTED YOUR KIDNE.Ys

Tn are two ways to tell whether you M weak kidneys.
 N Thcst is through the pains in the back a4 nd CT outward signs The second is F,aI ,fiination of the kidney secretions.
 That is why physicians make such a ereful examination when you apply for Insurance, and if there is any sign of kid ley trouble you are surely rejected. ] Kidney disease is so dangerous that it s bad mistake to overlook or neglect it, Ind if pain in the back, recurring head ,ches, or fretful, nervous, tired condition makes you suspect some kidney trouble, ,ke the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
 ons. Look for any of the following fgns:
 More or less than three and one half ,ints passed daily.
 Too dark or too pale color.
 Passaees too frequent. profuse. or much or scaldine and painful.
 Sandy. gritty or cloudy settlinas.
 Fat or oily-looking layer which gathers n the surface when allowed to stand, T ielly-like thickenind. Staining of the linen or bad odor. Temporary changes may occur for time rom things eaten, but if the changed ap- )earance continues, your kidneys are out of order and need help. Neglect may prove serious.
 Doan's Kidney Pills correct and regu- ate the kidney secretions, stimulate and neal sick kidneys, and thereby drive away

Compared with le expenditures TOT
 tuberculosis workh 1910. those of the
 past year are prasically the same III
 the aggregate, bt they are almost
 double those of 109. The Natlohal Association for tn Study and Proven ton of TubercuIoIs, in it's third an nual statement, pints out, however, what 1t considers more significant than the aggregate expenditures namely, that the pFcentage or money spent from public Iunds is greater Ill 1911 than ever oepre, being 66.2 per cent of the total In 1909 only 53.5 per cent of the otal expenditures was from publi; inds, and in l9lV 1t had increased to 626 per cent. Tn 1911 over $9,60000 of the $14,50O,0'o spent was from ederal, state, munlt1i pal or county fund, Since the ch1ef work of the ant.-tuberculosls assoch1 tions is to urge the public authoritiea to provide for tuberculosis patients ana thus to assume the responsibility for stamping out ttis disease, the i1 creased percentage of public moneI Is regarded as very favorable sigl of progress.

COMMISSION RULINGS
Several Cases Decided; Railroad
 Must Change Time of Trains.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 As soon as the Pine Bluff and Vest ern branch of the Iron Mountain sys- tenn complies with the requirements of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, passengers from Little Rock will have access to points along that line with out suffering the inconvenience of spending night at Benton going and coming. After the matter had been presented by a committee of ten busi- ness men, representing the Little Rock Board of Trade, the railroad commission ordered the Pine Bluff and Western to hold it's morning east bound passenger train at Benton for connection with the south-bound Iron Mountain trains, and to change it's schedule for west-bound trains so as to make connection for Little Rock with the north-bound Rock Island trains. The commission held that it had no jurisdiction in the matter of the complaint made against the Iron Mountain by the c. and w. Kramer Company The complaint is that the Iron Mountain will not allow the Missouri and North Arkansas road to cross it's tracks at Helena. The com mission granted the request of the citizens of Rumley for an agent at that point However, the commission made the proviso that the citizens rec ommend a competent man who will do the work for S25 month, as the busi- ness does not justify higher salary.
