first became suspicious to repeat oral
ly some of the things he wrote In his
first examination First he was asked
about certain words that appeared on
his examination paper. Diameter ap-
peared as "diametar" In the original
examination, and on the oral try Sc
gal spelled 1t "deamete." Friction.
which he got right the first time, ap-
peared the second time as Erickson.

THE KNOW HOW
To Feed Children and Get Good Re-
suits.

There are more nervous persons
made SO by undigested food lying in
the stomach than the average indi-
vidual would suppose.
II food remains undigested in the
stomach. it begins to ferment, set up
gas and large portion is thus con-
verted into poison
That's why imperfectly digested food
may, and often does, cause irritation
of the nerves and stupor of the mind
brain and nerves are really poisoned.
my daughter had complained for
some time of distressed feeling in
the stomach, after eating. which set
me thinking that her diet was not
right" writes an anxious and intelli.
gent mother.
"She had been fond of cereals. but
had never tried Grape-Nuts. From
reading the account of this predigest-
ed food, it seemed reasonable to try
Grape-Nuts for her case.
"The results were really wonderful.
The little brain that seemed at times
unable to do its work, took on new
life and vigor. Every morning, now,
before going to school, she eats the
crisp little morsels and is now com
pletely and entirely well, she seems to
have a new lease on life--no more
distress in the stomach, nor head
ache, but sound and we'll everyway."

Card of Thanks.

10 each one ana all OF those dear
friends who, by their kindly interest,
help, and words Of sympathy, in the
death and burial Of our beloved son,
Walter Rowland, and IN our hour of
deep gloom, 50 kindly ministere to
our needs, We wish TO return our
grateful thanks. We appreciate
every word and act that vas done or
courtesy shown, and will remember
them with that deep sense Of salts
faction and appreciation which no
words seem adequate TO convey.
Without the kindly sympathy and
help Of his and our friends. our sor-
row would be doubly hard TO bear,
and only those who have been be-
reaved, know what these acts OF
friendship mean In this sad hour.
We ask Gods blessings upon all who
In any way helped TO tenderIy lay
away his precious remains. Again
thanking eac h and all, we remain.
Sincerely your friends,
Mr.. and Mrs +. J. Rowland
and family.

We desire to express to our friends
and all those who by words and deeds
rendered such kindly service and
comfort to US In our great bereave-
ment, our deep feelings OF gratitude
and thankfulness, but words are tame
and inadequate to convey even re-
motely the deep appreciation which
all of US feel for the acts of friendship
to Mr. Terry In careing for his
precious remains, and to ourselves.
Such thoughtfulness and kindnesses
are no doubt Inspirations from on
high, and without them our bereaye.
ment would be doubly hard to bear.
We cannot hope to see each one per-
sonally and express to them our obli-
cations, hence we take thi, method Of
doing so, thanking each one, and all
who in any way ministered to our
loved one and to our own unhappy
needs.
Hoping God will bless you for these
and all other good deeds throughout
your lives, we are
Sincerely and gratefully yours,

MADISON TIMES.

There is some talk Of putting in a
mussel shell dredge in the st. Fran
els river, and the writer has heen in
formed that there is one now at work
at or near the Cut Off, something
like thirty miles below Madison, and
that they contemplate dredging this
river out. And they say wherever it
works 1t ruins the bed forever. My
understanding is that the concern is
backed by Muscatine, Iowa, capital,
and run by citizens Of that State.
Now, what have reference to, are
the tax payers and the state OF Ark
ansas going TO stand back and let
these people run such a machine?
AS everyone knows, there are great
many men depending on this indus
try for a livelihood, and do not use
such drastic machines as a dredge TO
gather the shells. They use what is
called "crowfeet," and it does not
destroy the mussel shell bed like a
dredge, for 1t leaves shells enough to
accumulate for another season Be-
sides, the northern concerns have no
money here, only the actual expense
OF loading them on cars, for they
have their men with them. brought
from Muscatine, Iowa.
This is measure that the State
should look after, and not allow such
machine in our rivers, for the pro-
lection Of its citizens, who follow
this vocation for living, and | think
our lawmakers should proceed to
enact law to prohibit gathering
shells with a dredge, and make it a
law TO tax every nonresident to the
extent OF twenty-five dollars a wear,
and let the funds be put INTO the
school funds OF every county where
the she'll digger may be residing or
digging shells. And | venture to say
this shell industry is a matter the
State should look after. If these
dredges are kept out OF here, the
State will reap more benefit out Of
1t. For one reason the citizens will
gather them and sell them, thereby
causing the money 10 be spent here,
and not taken out of the State by
non-resldents. Or in other words,
the goods would not be taken out by
a foreign corporation thereby leav-
Ing the State no benefits OF its re.
sources | am a professional shell
digger myself, and ! know what | am
talking about. have been at the
business for twelve or fifteen years,
and can knowingly say a dredge
like the one they speak OF, will ruin
the st. Francis river forever as to
shells, and | would be more than
pleased to see our State take care OF
this industry, and not allow any cor
poration to come into our grand old
State and take these shells out with
out leaving some benefits 10 us-for
they use labor out of their own State
when they come here to dredge. etc.
Trusting this viii reach the eve OF
our trusted representative OF st.
| Francis county.
