 "The picture of a big double-fisted red-necked fellow who will stand up before telephone and "bawl out the young lady operator at the other end of the line on account of a slow con- nection or inability to hear the party to whom he wishes to talk, is even un- fit for the rogue's gallery. Nine times out of ten he is a coward with, his fellow man and disagreeable com panion in his own home.

 For which reason ingenious design CTS have advised gown with rows of ruffles or flounces running around the bottom. The skirt is slit and of the transparent texture that the dic- tates of fashion demand, but the thick circles of flouncing fill up the gap and make the whole thing as im- pregnable to vision as a Chinese wall, Smartness-and modesty.

CAMPAIGN OPENED AT --.--
 BERRYVILLE FOR CONGRESS-

Berryville, Aug. 21.-Circuit court convened here Monday with Judge J. s. Naples presiding and c. A. Fuller prosecuting attorney looking after the interest of the state. After Judge Naples had instructed the grand jury, court adjourned until noon to give the candidates for prose- cutting attorney an opportunity to an- nounce their candidacy. George A. Hurst of Fayetteville spoke thirty minutes. He said he had worked his way through the University of Arkan- sas, had studied law and for several years past had had an ambition to be elected to the office he was now seek ing. He ridiculed the idea of J. w. Walker asking the voters for second term, his first term having been held 14 years ago. He said Mir. Walker forfeited all such right he might have had when he ran for the second term IA years ago and was defeated by J. $. Naples, the present circuit judge.
 Hon. J. s. Combs of Huntsville ap- pealed to the voters to give him the office on the grounds that his county had never been recognized in the elee- tion of judicial officers.
 After the noon recess J. N. Tillman of Fayetteville and c. A. Fuller of Euroko Cnr;pu uc oo,5;ao4o. o.. - gress, spoke 50 minutes each. Judge Tillman talked at length of his con- nection with the state university and severely censured the board of trus- tees for siding with the striking stud ents last year instead of sustaining the faculty. Judge Tillman in dis. cussing the recent elimination pri- mary between himself and P. A. Rog- CTS of Benton county, said "any man who is active in life and stands for the right upon all occasions will grow at least a fair crop of enemies in 20 years"
 c. A. Fuller discussed at length the tariff question. saying that it is now and always would be the salient issue between the two great parties of the country. He favored longtime loan by the general government to the far mer at low rate of interest upon proper security. He also favored the regulation of railroads and express companies. :.
 Judge Tillman became offended at something Mir. Fuller said in his talk and in his rejoinder became personal and several unpleasant words passed between them.

HOSPITAL, PLANNED
$6,OOO Building Will Be Erected il

Argenta, Ark, Aug. 21.-J. J. Knapp of Wichita, Kan, a member of the Missouri Pacific-lron Mountain Board of Hospital Service, states that Ar genta will have a modern $6.0OO emer- EenCy hospital within three months, located in the rear of the Iron Noun tain shops. This location was chosen because it is at times impossible to get wounded man to the hospital on account of the long trains stand on the tracks. Work will probably be begun at once.
