S VAT THE Fly.

The fly is the greatest known
carrier of disease. Keep him
out Of the house as you value
the lives Of your little ones.
Where there no flies there wo-
nd be less typhoid fever, and
other diseases would be cut
down very materially. No
doubt more than half the
deaths of babies of a few
months old would be averted
were it not for the common
house fly.
The fly season is again at
hand and determination of the
pest is the price Of safety.

Advertising Helpful, But Not
Essential.

y am sometimes amused by the
statement, oft repeated, that the
patent medicine business owes its
success to advertising. While adver-
Using is an important feature of the
success of any business, no business
can be successful, from commercial
standpoint, that depends entirely
upon advertising. The advertise
ment must be backed by merit, or
there is no second sale, and profits
depend upon second sales. People
buy commodities. not advertising,
and it is worse than waste of money
to advertise an article without merit
to do the thing it is advertised to do,
whether it is proprietary medicine,
a safety razor, or washing machine"

alderman Vision presented the
request of the commissioners

While the council took no de-

he members were unanimously
Pl the opinion that the city's re-
venue was needed for other pur-
poses and general street work
particularly and if so large a
PUN as $4,000 was appropriated
For the bridge building, the city
might later be reduced TO a scrin

gently organized will probably
only pay about 5 per cent for
money secured through bonds.

Law Plates Now Buried.

Little Rock, April 15.-Some
thing stronger than an iniunc.
ton will prevent a portion of the
plates from which the Arkansas
Supreme Court reports were
printed, being used by the New
York law book publishing con.
Germ, which loan was authorized
by the legislature. A restrain
ing order was then asked to pre-
vent Secretary of State Hodges
permitting the plates to go out
side the state.
The plates, which are of a
metal composition such as are
used in printing work, were
packed in boxes and stored in
the hospital building of the old
penltentlary. The laborers who
handled them were careless and
many of the boxes were per-
mitted to break open and their
contents to spill out. The work.
men did not pick up the plates
when the box broke, but tramp
ed on them until many we're de-
stroyed. In the few instances
in which the plates were picked
up, they were thrown into a pile
and jumbled up with plates from
other volumes until it would
take a Philadelphia lawyer to
solve the puzzle.
Pending the decision in the in
junction suit, the boxes contain
ing the plates are being stored
beneath the steps of the new
Capitol.

Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 15.-Short
sharp and spirited will be the
campaign for the gubernatoria1
nomination to be conducted be-
tween this and June q. less than
two months, but it will be ade-
quate. The people want to Sc
lect their own governor, out it
cannot be denied that they are
aWeary Of much politics and will
welcome a relief for a few
months before they will have to
go into the 1914 campaign, which
will be along next winter some
time.
Col. S. Brundidge and G. w.
Hayes have opened their head
quarters for their furtherance
of their candidacy and it ap-
pears that they will have a free
course. Other entrants have
until April % to get into the
running, but they are wary. DR..
! G. H. Brough of the University
was the last Of the lingerers a.
waiting a conference with
friends before making definite
announcement, but it is not at
all probable that he will be a
candidate.
Col. Brundidge in entering the
race, freely asserts that he does
not endorse the administration
of Gov. Joe T. Robinson, which
lasted only two months, and de-
clares that he will tell his reas-
ons for it on the stump if it be-
comes necessary.
'If elected to the governors
office, so long as | hold it it shall
never be used to elect either my
self or anyone else to any other
Office" said Col. Brundidge,
''but | am not prepared to sell
my birthright by promising any
man or set of men that | will
never be a candidate for any
other office. That is a matter
which belongs to the future and
we will let future conditions
take care of it,
Col. Brundidge will invite 9th
er candidates for the nomina-
! ton to join him in a canvass OF
the state. The statement quot
I ed is interpreted as meaning
/ that while he will not use the
office of governor to hoist him
self into the Senatorial office, as
was done by Governor Robinson,
he does not pledge himself not
! to run for that Office at such
a time as he may be able to do
so without using the governors
office as a means to the end.
In making his announcement,
Judge Hayes says, and this IS
construed as covert reference
to the fact that Col. Brundidge
may at some time be candidate
for the U. S. Senate, "The Gov
ernorship is the only office l
have in view" Judge Hays adds
that he is not a factional candl-
date, and that it will be his pur-
pose to eliminate factions by
trying to unite them. 1t is ex-
pected that the campaign will
differ from any that have been
held in recent years by being
free from virulence and bitter
ness, as there are none of the is
sues pending which call for per-
sonal attacks. And moreover
the two candidates now before
the people for the nomination
are not that kind of men, al
though both have demonstrated

MUST LOVE THE LITTLE FOLK
Otherwise the Girl Who Adopts Pro-
fession of chiIdren's Nurse
VIII Not Succeed.

The great essention for any girl
adopting the profession Of children's
nurse is that she must have a great
love for the wee folk, to be able to
enter into their feelings, to sympa.
thize with their sorrows and joys. A
child's nurse must not be a cynic.
She must know the importance of lit
tie things to children, must know
that the molehills of grown-ups are
the mountains of boys and girls. Now
adays the children's nurse must be q
comrade and companion as well as
mentor to her young charges. but the
latter role must never be over-empha-
sized.
1t is well, too, for any girl desiring
to become a nurse of this kind to go
somewhere and obtain the proper
training for the position. 1t is a big
advantage when seeking employment.
Briefly, the nurse of children must
be able to superintend the c~hildren's
health, their good, their clothes and
their lessons-not at all onerous du-
ties to the girl who is fond of chill.
