Little Rock, May 23.- There are 12, 15S names on the referen dun petition filed Thursday with the Secretary of State by Joe Lyons, representing the liquor interests of the State, for the purpose of referring to the peo. pie Senate bill No. 118, known as the whiskey bill of the last legis- lature.

The proceeds of the first call made by the Arkansas State Au- ditor for the payment of p per cent. of the collections by the county collectors has long since been dissipated, and for several weeks the holders of State war. rants have been unable to get cash upon them from the State Treasurer, Occasionally a few dollars are paid in, but they do not last long enough to write out a receipt. It is estimated that another call for 25 per cent, would meet all outstanding warrants. Final settlements will not be made until after the middle of July.

A TRIED AND
 PROVED GUARANTEE
Man Bought a Bottle of Dodson's s Liver Tone, Then Took if Back and Asked For His
 Money and Got It.

A man recently tried out the guarantee which. the Hesterly Drug Store gives with every bot tie of Dodson's Little Tone. He bought bottle and then went back to the drug store and said the medicine hadn't helped him,
 The druggist just reached into his cash register and took out a half dollar, the price of the bot tie of Liver Tone, and handed it back to the gentleman, but he didn't take the money. He owned up that he was just trying the guarantee, and, as a matter of fact, he had found Dodson's Liv- CT Tone the best remedy for con stipation and biliousness he had ever tried. Why" he said, my wife wouldn't be without bot tie in the house for anything. It's the best thing in the. world for the whole family, and the medi. cine that l prefer to take or to give to my children for a lazy liver"
 The Hesterly Drug Store sells Dodson s Liver Tone and guaran- antees it to start the liver with out violence, It is taking the place of calomel everywhere. If you buy a bottle, and don't find this pleasant-tasting, vegetable liquid the best thing to start a lazy liver, he will hand your money back with a smile.

She counts it one of Gods choicest blessings that she was brought into this glorious work by the women of Prescott.

OLDEST OK CART IN AMERICA
Vehicle on Exhibition at Los Angeles
That Dates Back to the Seven
teenth Century.

There is on exhibition In Los An
geles what is claimed to be the most
ancient wheeled vehicle in America
SAYS the Pathfinder. 1t was last used
some years ago by Pueblo Indian or
the village OF Tesuque, n. M. The
tradition was that this "ca reta,' or
OK cart had been handed down from
father to son in the same family TOR
enough generations to carry its orl-
gin back into the seventeenth century.
The car. however shows evidences OF
having been repaired time and again,
and it may be that only part OF the
: original cart that is left is the holes
in the wheels where the axle goes
through.
The wheels are hewn bodily out or
huge pieces of sycamore and are 3S
inches in diameter, six inches thick at
the rim and two feet through at the
holes The great antiquity of the We
hicle is proved by the fact that there
is not a nail nor a piece of metal OF
any kind used in it. 1t is built entire
~ of wood and is fastened together
either with wooden pins or thongs OF
rawhide. 1t is an interesting fact
that this cart is made exactly like the
OK carts that have been in use in
southern Europe from the earliest his
toric times. One sees, for example,
just such cars to this day in Thessaly
and parts of Turkey.

These women declare that they

seem to be striking a baCk-handed
blow at progress. They are like the

FINDS ORIGIN or FUEGL03
Excavations Wade C.scloee Fact That
Cliff Dwelers Represent Ema'ga-
mation Of TWO Races.

The Pucblos. II ia reasonably GER
tain, are a composite race formed by
the amalgamation of the ancient cllh
dwcllers with stronger nomadic tribes
which conquered them, intermaIrleG
with them, and then to a large extent
assimilatcd their culture This opln'
ion was advanced and strongly sup
ported with indirect evidence by Dr.
Edgar L. Hewitt several years ago
says the Christian Herald. 1t has
lately received confirmation that ap-
pears to remove it from the domain OF
conjecture into the realm of fact
For years past Doctor Hewitt has
from time to time conducted eXcaVa-
tions among the numberless ruins
west of Santa Fe. BY measurement OF
the skulls found in the course of these
excavations he has proved that the
cliff dwellers were a dolicocephallc
long-headed) race. The Pueblo lndl.
ans are predominantly brachycephalic
(sbort- -headed), with a noticeable per
centage Cfrom Is to % per cent? or
the other type. The difference be
tween the two types is fundamental
and proves conclusively that the Pu-
eblos differ widely from the ancient
people of the cliffs.
Nevertheless, the similarity of their
architecture their industries, their
culture and their religion unmistaka-
bly indicates that the Pueblos are the
inheritors of the institutions of the
vanished race. Some of the existing
communities even possess traditions
to the effect that their ancestors dWelt
in the cliff homes. All these circum-
stances led to the conjecture that at
some remote period in the past the
people of the cliffs had been conquered
by a more warlike people, and that
the modern Pueblos represented the
amalgamaton of the victors and the
vanquished.

mysterious midnight noises An eerie
feeling pervaded the atmosphere, and

give me the roaring OF the lion, or
sharp trumpeting of an elephont, borne
on the night air as you lie silent and

They looked at him in surprise. Was

A Bird Of q Fish Story.

Two clever kiugishers have estab-
lished home in a gravel bank within
a few rods of Highland lake, near
Winsted, Conn, where fishing boats
assemble every morning. The birds
watch operations from the holes in the
bank. and when the fishermen begin
to pull in fish, generally perch and
rock bass, the kingfshers swoop
down upon the fishermen, seizing the
fish as they are lifted above the wa
ter.
Sometimes the fish are so securely
hooked that the kinghshers cannot
snatch them from the hooks, but oc-
casionally they are borne away by the
long-billed birds. Now fishermen re-
turning empty-handed tell stories
about the big ones" that the birds
swiped on them.

Health.

There was bank clerk who saw
the men of his own age losing health
year by year through overwork, indoor
sedentary life and lack of daily ex.
ercise He saw them growing yellow
and nabby and unfit, and the spectacle
didn't attract him. He decided that
success had better come late, or even
not at all, rather than at the price OF
a ruined body Health became to him
the choicest of the mercies, the best
of lfes comrades. Up and away tho
person in health can dash-to another
job, to another cline, master of his
fate Ill health is n chain that ties,
to the dreariness OF what is nearest at
hand. After youth of weakness
and fatigue, the man was happy in
finding that an hour OF exercise day
changed the aspect of the outer world,
and removed him for all time from the
ranks of the untit-COllier's Weekly.
