Many a mother has learned of a way of avoiding sickness in her fam fly, especially among the children, by the use of free sample bottle of the famous laxative, Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. This offer of the doctors to send free sample bottle has been re- sponded to by thousands of women in all parts of America
 Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a truly wonderful laxative and espe- cially adapted to the needs of babies and children because it is pleasant to taste and no child will refuse it. Then, it is mild and never gripes. It is all that a child's remedy should be, though it is a good laxative for the whole family because it is effective at all ages. It is not dynamic like salts, pills and powerful cathartics which should not be given to chil- dren under any circumstances.

TRAIN IS RUSHED ON, ONLY TO BE DELAYED AN HOUR
 NEAR TOWN.
From Mondays Daily

From Mondays Daily
 Nearly 2,0O0 people assembled at the railroad station here late Satur- day evening to catch glimpse of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, as the former president passed through Conway on his whirlwnd trip across the state. Arriving here about an hour behind it's schedule time, the special train stopped at the station only about two minutes.
 If the party could have foreseen it, Col. Roosevelt had time to deliver an address of nearly an hour here. Af- ter hurriedly pulling out from the station, the engineer was forced to stop the train about half-mile south of the station on account of a hot journal and delay of about an hour resulted Finally, the engine of pas senger train Mo- 103, which was run ming about 40 minutes behind the spe- cial, was uncoupled and attached to the special, while the crippled engine pulled the regular train into Little Rock. The special made the run from here in 35 minutes.
 At the stop here Col. Roosevelt was introduced by John Bruce Cox of Lit tle MUCK, HdtlNe CoilWdy youIlS iHdli who is one of the leaders of the Roosevelt movement in this state. The former president waved his broad -brimmed hat and favored the crowd with his expansive smiles, but spoke only a few words before he was interrupted by the train pulling out. After greeting the crowd he said: ''In this campaign we stand for de- cent politics, decent citizenship, de- cent Amercans The young lady students of Central College, who stood in line on the cotton platform, attracted the attention of the former president, who referred to them with a wave of h;s hat in his greetings as pretty girls

SHIPMENTS ARE NEAR
 LAST YEARS MARK

Shipments of cotton from Conway during the season beginning Septem Der 1, 1911, lacked only '5 bales this morning of reaching the total num- Der shipped during the preceding sea son. Up to this morning 19,l53 bales had been loaded on cars here this sea son, while during the preceding sea- son the total shipments were 1928 bales. As there is still a considerable quantity of cotton to market in this county, it is thought the total ship
 ments from the 1911 crop will ap- proach very close to the 10000 mark.

How to Keep Face
Young and Attractive

The way to ward off old age Is
not to fear 1t, not to allow ones
self to be oppressed by the dread
of advancing years. Use only legit-
innate preventives and avoid trying
experiments with preparations not
Endorsed by physicians. An entirely
safe and very effective way to
keep the complexion young-Iooking
and beautiful is to apply ordinary
mercolized wax at bedtime, using
1t like cold cream, washing 1t off in
the morning. This gradually alb
serbs the withered, faded cutfcle,
which is replaced by the more
youthful, pink-tinted underskin.
One ounce of this wax. to be had at
any drug store, is enough to COM
pletely reJuvenate a worn-out COM
plexion.
Wrinkles and flabbiness OF cheek
and chin, the first signs of advanc-
ing age, may be lessened by a sim
pie, harmless preparation made by
dissolving an ounce. of powdered
saxolite In a half pint witch hazel.
1t is used as face bath.-Advt.
