HAiARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Sc rious Consequences of Neg leCt.

Fix me up something to knock th' malaria, doctor" remarked a salloW faced, sickly looking uan, entering r-ominenl physician's office the othe .sv.
 The doctor stepped ts his inedicin ,ase, took down couple of bottles, mixet a preparation witch he handed to tht patient with the customary advice tc shake we'll and follow directions and resumed his seat.
 "Such cases are frequent, replied tn doctor in answer to question. "Tht warm days and damp, chilly nights art certain malaria breeders and are mos serious in those who have neglected tt keep their stomach, liver and bowels in good condition. Such persons are full of the impurities on which the malarial germ thrives, and it is from this class that typhoid fever, pneumonia Bright's Disease, smallp pox and yellow fever clain most of their victims whenever these dis eases are prevalent.
 The proper way to guard against the nalaria1 germ and the serious diseases which follow it is to get into good condi' ton by taking a reliable remedy that will keep the bowels clear and the live healthy, and to continue with it at ire quent intervals during the sickly season.
 A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or four times a week will do all of this, be. sides stimulating the digestion. improv. ing the appetite and keeping the bodily energy at the highest pitch.
 Prickly Ash Bitters is known every where as system tonic and bowel regu. ;ator. It not only removes all traces oe na1arial poison from the system, but lones up the vital organs, gives new strength and vigor, makes the body strcng and the brain active.

WIFE DEAD, HUSBAND DYING.
Boys Burst Into Faulkner County
 Home and Make Discovery.

Conway, Oct. 2.-Bursting into the rude home of Joe H. Cooper near Mount Vernon, about twenty miles east of here, two neighbors' boys found the aged man lying on the floor gasping his last. On a bed lay the body of his venerable wife, who had probably been dead two days. Even while the boys stood there horror-stricken, the aged man groaned feebly and died. The bod ies of both husband and wife were terribly emaciated. There was nothing to eat in the poverty stricken little home and it is be- lieVed that the aged couple died of starvation and neglect.
 Mr. and Mrs. Cooper were old and feeble and poverty-stricken, and subslsted largely on the charity of the neighbors. They had not been seen for some time, and the boys, passing by, decided to investigate. They were driven off by a fierce dog which belonged to the old couple. They returned later and, hearing groans emanating from the house, decided to brave the dog. All the doors of the house were barred, but the boys burst one in just in time to witness the death of the aged unfortunate.

 BY TOAD STOOLS

 ing Mushrooms.

TeXarkana, Oct. 2.-As result of mistaking toad stools for mush- rooms, Mir. and Mrs. J. J. Stevens and two of their six children are this afternoon lying at the point of death at their home on Ninth street. The poisonous fungus were gathered in the woods last Monday morning by Mrs. Stevens and served on the table at the noon hour. Mon day night the mother, father and two sons, all of whom had partaken of the food, were stricken and have since been at the point of death.
 For some time past Mrs. Stevens had been in the practice of going to the woods and gathering mush- rooms. These were served on her table as food, and the family had developed a great liking for them.
 Monday morning Mrs. Stevens, following her usual custom, went to the woods and gathered what she took to be mushrooms. She states that she noticed several of the fungus growth were colored underneath. but paid no attention to this and prepared all of them for eating.
 Four of her smaller children are attending school, and these, very naturally. did not get any of the poisonous stuff. All the others who partook of the dish, however were stricken ill Monday night, and Tuesday morning Dr. K. NJ. Kelly was called in by the neighbors to look after them. He stated this afternoon that Mr. and Mrs. Stew ems had improved somewhat, but the condition of the two boys re- main about the same, being con- Sidered critical.

It is stated the case has been referred to the Associated Charities Asso- citation, but complaint was made that this organization has not done for them all that possibly might be done. It is said the family is in distress and needs assistance badly

KIRBY OUT FOR SENATE
The Associate Justice Takes a Hard Slap at Senator Clarke in d
 Letter to Voters.

Little Rock, Oct 2.-Associate Justice w. F. Kirby today made public a letter to the voters of the state, announcing his candidacy for the United States Senate to suc- ceed Senator James P. Clarke. He says he expects to make an active canvass of the state before the pri- maries. He says in the course of his letter:
 My opponent, Senator Clarke, seeks a third term, while closing twelve years service in the United States Senate, which is best de- scrlbed by his own estimate of the career of his predecessor in the Senate, Of him he said: I did not say he has not done well. He has done we'll for himself, but not for the people. He has done more for himself and less for the people than any man who has ever long held high office in the state"
 Continuing, Mir. Kirby says: We need the services of a senator now who has at heart the interest of the great common people and is regardful of our rights; one in touch with the conditions in the state and nation, and in harmony with the principles and leaders of the Democratic party.
 Notwithstanding the senator owes his election to the Democratic party, Republican said of him in speech here that when he was president he looked upon Senator Clarke as upon my right hand. He was my right hand man. You all know that the senator criticised and denounced the great common er' William J. Bryan, and his views of Democracy, in our last Demo- cratic state convention until it hlssed and shouted him down and would not permit him to proceed, and also that he recently caused to De appointed to the United States attorneyship at Little Rock man who was opposing the election of the regular Democratic nominee Tor governor"

SMITH HIGHWAY
 ACT A FAILURE
coomissioner Reuben c. Dye Says If Is Impractical and Will Offer New System to Next Legisla-
 ture-Nas Rushed Through.

rittle Rock, Oct. 1 Special - penben G. Dye, state highway com missioner. has given it as his de- Iihorate opinion that the Smith Highway bill passed by the last Iocislahlre. is a failure. Tuesday afornoon he authorized the follow % ing interview, dictated to the parkp-Harper News Service:
 % @After the Smith Highway act has been in effect for six months nnd @ given fair trial, 1 consider tbaf it has been proven to be inn nracficable, and that the end to be Lasired the construction of a com DIofc and comprehensive system of eood roads all over Arkansas, can moi be attained under it's provi- siOns.
 II am working on a new system which 1 propose to have submitted to fhe next legislature, whereby tbis result can be reached. 1 will nropose the repeal of the present acf and the substitution of another and more practicable scheme.
 .'The cumbersome proceedings III inc present act render it wholly inoperative in so far as building a road of any length or what might he termed through road, is con- cerned. Before a district can be formed it is necessary to have the approval of a majority of the m1alified electors in the district and a majority in value of the reaI nroperty signed for. To make this showing it would be necessary nracfically 10 take the census of the nopulation of several counties and inc census of the value of the prop ertv involved, and the standard of property values for this purpose i, not fixed in the act or elsewhere.
 The present policy of furnish ing expert advice free to county judges and road improvement dis tricts created by special act will be continued and extended, and strong efforts will be made 10 arouse fur ther interest in behalf of a move ment for better roads and 10 ac- complish all that may be possible under the circumstances while the present law is in effect. The fail ure of the law is, of course, dis appointment. but not a surprise The act was passed in the closing hours of the last legislature. and it was apparent to all that if was this act or nothing in the way oi road legislation, and there was nc time for corrections. as all the time was being given to revenue meas ures and appropriations"
