Made Strong and Well by Vinol

Made Strong and Well by Vinol.
 When we tel. you that vinol is the best remedy in our whole stock for making weak, puny. ailing children strong, robust and rosy we are only telling you what has been proved by hundreds of mothers.
 J. l.. Tickling, Macon, Ga, says: My child was very thin and delicate. no appetite, nervous, and did not sleep well. Doctors did not help her. Vinol was recommended and the change after fair trial was wonder aul. She sleeps soundly all night, has . splendid appetite and has gained in weight. l wish every mother knew what Vinol will do for delicate chil- dren." -...,.... What. Vinol did for this little girl lt will do for every weak and Sailing child because sickly children need the strengthening cod liver clements and the tonic iron that Vinol con- tains-that is why Vinol builds them up quickly and gives them fine. healthy color. It is pleasant to take and we guarantee that the results will satisfy you-money back if they do rot

TT INTO A PUBLIC
 SERVICE COMMISSION.

In advocating the broadening of the work and powers of the Arkansas Railroad Commission, making it prac- tically a public service commission, the Little Rock Gazette has undertak- en something that ought to have been Tn operation long ago.
 While the railroad commission has accomplished vast amount of good work for the shippers, it nevertheless has practically nothing to do great deal of the time. Making it a public service commission would give it a standing of worth that would justify the change.
 As the Gazette says, there are now so many conflicts between public ser vice corporations and communities as to justify the creation of a commits sion with powers to adjust all differ ences.
 Another change should be to make the term of commissioner 10 years, and ineligible to succeed himself, with the proviso that he can be "recalled'' for cause. This would do away with the present scramble for office and re- move the evil influence of partisan politics.
 The salary should be large enough to attract the right men, and the con- missioners should be barred from us- ing free transportation on any occa- sion, and this prohibitive feature to apply to members of their families under penalty of forfeiture of their unexpired term.-Fort Smith Herald.

ELECTED,
 SAYS THE GAZETTE

Although no official figures have ever been printed from any of the counties in the district, the total re turns show the nomination of Judge Thomas c. Trimble of Lonoke for judge of the Seventeenth district by plurality of 171, according to the Gazette of Tuesday morning.
 George w. Clark of Conway is in Des Are, assisting in the prosecution of the slayer of Wesley Mum, and it could not be learned today whether he has conceded his defeat. He wired last night, however, that the official canvass of Prairie county gave Trim ble a majority of only IT in that county, and judging from that, MT, Clark may still contend that he is elected.

THE LATE IOhN L. FlTZWATER.
A Tribute To His rlemory By Friend
Of Years.

Died, at his residence Oh North Glade,
Garrett county, Nd, at one o'clock
Wednesday morning. April 22nd. 1914,
ex-Judge of the Orphans Court John
Lower Fltzwater. aged seventy-four
years, one month and twelve days. 1t
is life closed not far from the spot of his
birth March the 10th, 1910.
In early manhood he united with the
Methodist Episcopal church and contin-
ued a sincere, Jealous and influential
member of that faith until life ended.
During his long period of membership
he filled numerous offices in the govern
ment of the church and of its various
tributaries, being for more than thirty
years superintendent of its Sunday
school.
Mr.. Fitzwater was married September
14th, 1873. to Miss Hepzibah George, a
daughter of the late Rev. William E.
George of Deer Park, Maryland. Of
the thirteen children from this union,
six are dead, and seven, four sons and
three daughters survive with the widow.
Mr.. Fitzwater descended from a race
honorable among the earliest settlers
opening homes along the frontiers of
mountains and glades before the hand
of man had rescued them from the saw
agery of nature. Just where his father
left off the subject of this mention took
up his task and by.judicIously directed
energy and a sensible application clear
ed and extended fertile fields improved
by substantial buildings until he was the
possessor of one of the most desirable
and productive stock farms of his coun-
ty. Administrative capacities are ap-
parent in a large and wisely selected
orchard no less than in the sound iudg-
ment shown in the management Of the
farm in its many departments. Here he
founded an ideal country home, where
it was one Of his greatest pleasures to
dispense a warm hospitality to large
circle of friends attracted to him from
many classes and stations in life. and
more particularly was it the abiding
place OF ministers OF all denominations
conducting the services of the nearby
churches.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1914-04-30

In answer to popular call from his
fellow citizens of every party affiliation,
he was elected to the office of Judge of
the Orphans Court and discharged those
often perplexing duties with fidelity to
their interest and credit to himself, re-
linquishing the public trust only when
his health became too gravely menaced
to admit of that thoroughness it was his
custom to give.
Just as he was attaining the MONDAY
of a magnificent physical manhood, a
pimple appeared over the cheek. slight
and painless, it deepened and assumed
threatening color. Experiment followed
experiment without eliminating its
spread. In January, 1909. he went to
New Yark for consultation with DR..
William S. cambridge, known for his
skill in this country and in Europe. The
famous doctor told him frankly the case
was hopeless, and while the end might
be delayed it could not be averted. 1t
was at this trying crisis that the I'M
flinching courage and strong religious
elements in the character of Mr.. Fitz-
water were most convincingly brought
to view. To wise ordaining he did not
question submission, was made free
from and murmer or complaint. and with
a perfect confidence in divine justice,
he cheerfully faced what he knew was
coming. From the time of the eXami-
nation IN New York he bravely fought
a losing battle of more than five years
duration. Thread after thread was so
gently loosed from the fabric of life that
he reached the border ground of the
Masters Kingdom with so much ease as
to cross the Great Divide, indeed, like
falling on sleep. &. NJ. MILLER.

home on Wednesday from Eureka
where he had been on a road mark

way stakes at every road be-
ween Ely and Eureka. At Eureka
he found that the work had already

pie agreed to continue the work to-
ward Austin to the western line of

movement at Eureka is headed by
Rudolph Zadow, who is an enthusi-

all the time. He was informed at
Eureka that the posting of signs
through Lander County had been
somewhat neglected, but has reason
to believe that all roads in that Sec
ton will soon be posted. Mr.. Hoag
states that the road from,Ely to Eu-
reka is in fairly good condition at
the present time. but that ore haul
ers from Hamilton are in the habit
of blocking the wheels of their heavy
wagons on mountain grades with
stones, and leaving them in the road.
which is contrary to provisions of
the statutes. This practice should be
discontinued at once.
