The cost of tire upkeep lies mainly in
these three shortcomings:
Rim.Gutting- Blow. Outs Loose Tresds.
We spend fortunes each year spent by
no other maker-to minimize these costs.
We save tire users in these ways many
millions of dollars. And Goodyear tires, on
this account, outsell any other.

trading value" is becoming less and
less. The big. powerful four that cost
approximately $4,000. loses more pro-
portionately than the somewhat lower
priced machine Because the compe-
tition OF the six Is not so strongly

 To be always contented but never satisfied; to make the most of what one has while continually striving for something higher and better; tC acquire that culture of spirit which teaches how to enjoy to the full the blessings that come and also gives strength to renounce without bitter ness when the great ordeals of life take from the store. Such was the noble and fruitful conception of life which gave unity, strength and beauty to the truly remarkable life of Mrs Mary A. Davis, whose mortal remains we sadly followed to the tomb on the afternoon of March Sth.
 Mrs. Davis was born in Princeton, N. J.. on the 18th of June, 1S39 She was descended from an honored an cestry in the earned professions and always carefully guarded her good name. Her father was the Rev. Sam uel Galloway, one of the professors of Princeton college. When only two years of age,sher mother died and she was placed in care of her aged grandparents, Dr. and Mrs. Jacob Scudder, who were related to the Scudder family of missionary fame. Some time later she was sent to her uncle in Georgia to be reared and educated and in the year 1859 gradu- ated from Mt. 'Holyoke Seminary. For ten years afterwards the subject of this sketch was a teacher in the schools of Tennessee and Georgia and saved from her earnings during that time enough to pay back every dollar that had been expended on her education
 Ill 1871 she came to Arkansas tC engage in the duties of her profession and afterwards was married to Major G. w. Davis. Her early married life was spent on the Davis plantation south of Pine Bluff. There her child ren Were born and there did they re ceive from their mother their early education.

The Life Eternal

,RREN of science have offered two M strong arguments for the faith N of which the Easter day Is the
 efflorescence and the sign. One is that analogy seems to exclude the idea that the universe was built through such infinite labor and abys. nal time to produce creatures of mans dignity and intellect who were to per ish miserably in day. Such waste of energy and planning is incredible, such ghastly mockery is unthinkable in world of order and of love.
 That there Is subtle influence of some sort peryadings the earth and skies, to which the soul of man uncon- sciously or subconsciously responds, is hypothesis which is rather confirmed than discredited by such wonders as wireless telegraphy, the energy of radium and the multitude of psychic phenomena which coincidence seems inadequate to explain. Out of the vast unknown man is somehow stamped in. delibly with the consciousness that he is in Gods world, that God wants him and that the riddle of existence, like all other of natures puzzles, will find it's happy solution when this corrup ton shall have put on interruption and mortality is swallowed up of life

The city election is to be held on April 1 and all the regular nominees of the Democratic party are to be elected. The primary at which the various candidates were selected was ono of the fairest elections ever held in this city and the defeated candi- dates, all good Democrats, bowed to the will of the majority and consrat- ulatcd their opponents.
 There has been some talk in the past few days of opposition to one or more of the Democratic nominees for city offices. One man has announced that he will be an independent candi- date for mayor, but there semes to be a selfish motive behind his candidacy and little can be accomplished by one whose ambition is to serve a selfish personal desire.

 It is stated that quiet campaign is being made by a local man who aspires to the mayorship, who IS ut terly unworthy and unfit for the place, and that he is making all kinds of promises of "city jobs" and special fayors in order to arouse some inter- est i'll his unpopular candidacy He is said even to be trying to deceive the laboring men and others i'll an effort to bring about the downfall of a Dem ocratic nominee.

Having moved to Pine Bluff in 1887 Mrs. Davis engaged in Horticulture there supplying a long felt want in the community. In this business she had an intuitive taste for the work, knowing how to make the plants pro- duce the most perfect blossoms and how to protect them from what would mar their beauty. She was the po- neer florist of Pine Bluff; speedily gained a wide and good reputation for herself and being a lover of nature took great delight in her work. She planted every seed; every root with her own hands, watched their growth with loving eyes and in tending them in the dewy mornings had cleared away many petty worry and gained strength and patience for the cares of her life.
 From her garden she gathered blos- sons for the sick and sorroWing and pale waXen blooms to be clasped ill cold, still fingers: By far the largest number of florals furnished for fun erals were the products of her skill Her flowers were the language of love and sympathy for the communi- ty for as saith the poet, "Of old, 8 man who died had in his pride wo- man and steed and slave heaped at his grave. Given this sudden end their souls to send still serving witherward their Lord had fared Grown wiser, we, today happier way find for our love and grief and deaths flowers their fragrance strew Wherc he must 90, gladens the narrow gate Whereat we Wait.''
 Mrs, Davis possessed vigorous in- tellect and an exceptionally clear memory. In speech she was remark ably pure and though she did not visit much, yet she was always caro- ful to entertain kindly feelings to- ward her neighbors and took a keen interest ill whatever was for the good of the community.
 Her fullness of years crowned a life ennobled by rare honesty, indus try, purity and courage. She did no, talk her religion, but lived it in a firm, unobstrusive manner and was one of the charter members of the Alexander Memorial Presbyterian church. Her children rise up an( call her blessed and q large circle oi has gone before.
