The Deep Waterways Conven
ton ought to be good thing,
and if rightly managed will be.
Deep water from the lakes to the
gulf will call for deep water in
the streams tributary to the Mis-
sissippi and that will be a benefit
to Arkansas in more ways than
one. When we get deep water
we will have to get good roads to
lead to the water, but it is not
necessary to wait for deep water
before we have the roads. Let
US have the roads and be ready
for deep water when it comes.

HE LOST HIS JOB.

Woodrow Wilson," said Prince
ton man, "often illustrates with a
story the chief drawback of school
teaching.
'"This drawback is an arbitrary
tone, a tone of command, due to the
constant ordering about of the
young. DR.. Wilson's story is about
a youth, an ex-teacher, who got a
clerkship in bank. The youth hap
pened to look up from his work one
day, and saw the president dreaming
at his desk. Thereupon, forgetting
that he was a bank clerk and not a
school teacher now, he whacked the
counter with his fist and shouted at
his chief in voice of thunder:
Say, you, get on with your
work."

FOUNDED BY AN ENGLISHMAN
Americans Owe Smithsonian eInstItu-
tlon at Washington TO Gold OF
Dlssruntled BrItlsher.

British gold built the Smithson-
ian institution at Washington.
Jamees Smithscn, a disappointed
and disheartened nobleman, the nat
ural son Of the duke of Northumber-
land, made his will in 1926, and in
it he bequeathed all his property to
his nephew, Henry James Hunger
ford, providing that it should go to
his children, whether legitimate or
illegitimate, but containing a fur
ther clause in which it was stated
that if he died without issue, or if
his children died under the age Of
twenty-one or intestate, then the
whole Of his property, subject to q
small annuity to faithful servant,
should 60 to the United States ITO
found at Washington, under the
name Of the Smithsonian institu-
ton, an establishment for the in
crease and diffusion of knowledge
among men" Smithson died in
1898, and his nephew died six years
later at Piso, leaving no heirs. Pres
ident Jackson declared he had no au-
thority to receive the money and re-
ferred the matter to congress. The
necessary authorization was recon-
mended by both the senate and
house committees, but was not
passed by the two houses until after
bitter debate.

High cost of living does not
bother the Hampstead County
farmer very much for the reason
that he can live at home; he can
raise his own meat, his own bread
and in fact everything that one
can possibly need for food. Then
in the line of fruit he can grow
almost anything, can make any
kind of truck he may care to be
bothered with, in fact the prices
of these things that others have
to buy need not cause him a mo-
ments loss of rest, for all they
will cost him is little labor.

IS COMMON FAMILY PROPERTY
Cigars Used by Natives Of Philippine
Region Are More Than Two Feet
In Length.

A cigar two feet five inches long
and three inches in diameter is the
souvenir Prof. E. T. Eubank, Unit
ed States supervisor of schools for
the Lingayan district, Philippine
islands, brought with him on his re-
turn to his home in Liberty, Mo.
He will present the huge cigar to
the museum Of William Jewell col
lege.
The cigar is not a freak in Caga-
yam province, Philippine islands,
where Professor Eubank obtained it.
There the natives smoke what they
call the family cigars, and this is
one of them. These cigars are sus-
pended from the ceiling Of the room
by two cords, each attached near an
end of the cigar, and the weed is sus-
pended at such height as will en-
able the smoker to sit and smoke in
comport. Theyare usually suspend
ed near q window.
Only one cigar is suspended in
the house at a time, and while the
cigar lasts, which is . good while, il
is smoked alternately by various
members of the family. When the
smoker is tired he leaves the cigar
and the next smoker comes along, re-
lights it and pufIs away.
The cigar is made in exactly the
same way as the cigar as the ordi-
nary Size and before the first smok-
er begins he nips off the end in the
usual manner.

For Catarrh, Colds. Coughs, Sore
Throat and Bronchitis.

Everybody knows that breathing HY-
OMEI few times day through the
little hard rubber pocket inhaler will in
a short time drive out catarrh.

pour scant teaspoonful Of HYOMEI,
cover head and bowl with towel and
breathe for five minutes the soothing,
healing, antiseptic HYOMEI vapor. Try
it when using HYOMEI for. any nose or
throat ailment.
HYOMEI is guaranteed by w. H.

money back. A bottle of HYOMEI
costs so cents; a complete outfit, which
includes inh 'ler, SlO0.
