Statements That May Be Inves-

When a Newport citizen

pie residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind
that backs Doan's Kidney Pills.

His Credit Was Too Good.

In the course of an address
before the New York Master
Printers Association, Mr.. Frank
D. Griffith, the credit man of
Barnhardt Bros. & Spindler,
told the following story:
"The evil of too much credit
reminds me of the young man
calling on his best girl. She in
formed him that the next day
would be her birthday, but she
refused to tell him how old she
really was.
"He told her would send her a
bouquet, one rose for each year.
1.-THE next morning he tele-
phoned his florist to send two
dozen American Beauty roses to
the young lady.
"His credit with the florist
was good. Said the uorist tc
his assistant: This chap is
good customer, and we want tt
keep his trade; let's put three
dozen roses in that order instead
of two
"And the fellow hasn't fount
out yet why the girl won't speal
to him.
That's an example of too much
credit"

Yes, He Can.
. Independent.

To the Independent.
Can g man be a successful law
yer and officer and at the same
time be a true, devoted Chris
tian? This question once puzzled
the writer very much, for ne eX-
pected to be a lawyer. Many
people said: You can't be a
good lawyer and at the same
time be a Christian. | admit
that it was quite a problem Tor
me, but some of the lawyers that
| have met since then have prov
en- to me that man can be a
successful lawyer and at the
same time a loyal, true Chris
tan.
Hear what one Of his home pa
pers has to say of the lament
ed Judge J. B. Wood of Hot
Springs.
"a few days ago Judge J. b.
Wood anticipated that soon ne
would be called to answer the
last summons. Brave IN death
as he always was in life, and
Like one who wraps the drap-
ery of his couch about him, ano
lies down to pleasant dreams,
he awaited the call. There neeo
/ be no monument erected to the
life of this great and noble man
in Hot Springs. Here where MS
life has been lived, his memory
will last forever, and within the
hearts of the people, who love
and cherish a noble example, an
inscription is already written
that will be most lasting and
more useful than all eulogles
ever carved on tablets of marble
The voice stilled in death was
the voice of the righteous. The
hands cold in death, and tenderly
laid across his lifeless body, are
the hands that were always rails
ed against wrong" - H o
Springs Sentinel-Record.
So the great work done by
Judge Wood as Prosecuting At
torney and Judge of his district
and especially in Hot Springs
while he was at the same time q
true Christian and loyal church
member, is a strong affirmative
answer to this question.
With the kindest Of feeling:
| for all want to say that one OF
the great needs of our town is
Christian lawyers, with convic'
ton enough to fight for law en-
forcement and Righteousness.
Oh! for a man of the J. B.
Wood stripe, who would do for
Newport what Wood did for
Hot Springs. Then people could
no longer speak Of our town as
one of the most immoral places
in Arkansas. Places Of business
would be closed on Sunday, and
our town would attract the high
est class of citizens instead of
bootleggers and thieves.
These words are not intended
as a thrust at anyone, but to en-
courage men, especially lawyers,
to stand for law enforcement,
purity and Righteousness. Now,
if you stand for right and right
eousness, you will win out. Here
! is for more true Christian law
yers. We need them badly.
