Night Rates Discontinued.

Manager D. K. McNish of the
 Southwestern Telegraph & Tele- phone Co.,, when questioned in regard to the withdrawal of night toll rates, stated that this action was necessary to enable the company to furnish satis- factory service.
 Most toll calls at night rates were received immediately after Ie D. m., when the night rates became effective, thus congest- ing traffic seriously and causing delay and dissatisfaction to sub- Iscribers. Practically every oth-
 CT telephone company in the country has discontinued night rates for the same reason. Night rates are not offered in any state Iadjoining Arkansas, except Tex as.

A Gail To The Daughters Of
 The Cont

In as much as the Veterans themselves have raised the funds by popular subscription, to erect in our city monument
 worthy the memory of their
 brothers who fought so gallant ly with them in the Lost Cause, and also as mute reminder ot
 their own allegiance to our Southland, is it not our duty as loyal Daughters to rally togeth- Ter once more and evidence by our actions as we'll as in spirit, that we are with them and wish to do our part toward perpetu- ating their glorious history to future generations.
 The work of raising funds for this monument should have been ours, but we were slothful and the years were passing all toe rapidly, leaving each head a lit
 tie grayer, each step a little slower. The Veterans took ur the work themselves and are giving to us this beautiful mar ble shaft, that we and others may not forget. They have ask led that the Daughters arrange the programme for the unveil- ling ceremony and in order to dc this, we must meet again. Let each member of our old Lucier c. Cause Chapter come out anc
 as many others entitled to joiI in with the United Daughters 01 the Confederacy, as may earnest
 ly and sincerely wish to do so
 Let us meet with renewed vigol
 and determined to do the work that is ours. A meeting is called for Wednesday afternoon
 at three o'clock, with Mrs. O l D. Watson.

Let The Poultry Substitute For
 Cotton.

From now until after the hol- idays we will be selling off our old hens and all but one dr two of the young cockerels kept for the next seasons breeding. In flocks that are large, part of the bullets go along with the other market fowls. The selec- tion of the laying and breeding flock should never be a fanciful or a haphazard affair. Results are what we are after. Let us get in mind what goes to make a good individual of the breed or mixture of breeds we have and carefully follow that standard in our selection. If we have never done this before it will not be easy, but it will be worth while, for we must learn to distinguish readily points of type and build that stand for utility, hardness and vigor.
 Symetry of body, alert, lof- ty carriage of head and tail, feet and thighs we'll apart, curv- ed beak, broad head, medium length of neck, prominent full breast not too wide, broad back, fairly long body widening toward the rear, we'll developed, glossy well laid are some of the things which indicate worth. Birds lacking these qualities will be likely to prove unproftable.

Listen to This!

When buying clothing in lots
as all stores do-the freight OH a
suit of clothes from New York to
Honolulu is less than FIFTEEN
CENTS. Now, is there any reason
why you should pay from $3.50 30
$3.50 more for a suit in Honolulu
than you would in Chicago or
New York? Isn't that the worst
BUNK You ever heard of?
Now men, listen: We don't
claim to give you something fer
nothing-but we DO give you a
high-gradc suit with MONEY
BACK GUARANTEE and at a
lower price than any other store
in the Hawaiian Islands bar
none.
We don't hold you up because
you happen to be 2100 miles from
the mainland. We sell you good,
honest reliable clothing at Chica-
go and New York prices with
THE MODEL CLOTHIERS' rep
utation and guarantee back of
every stitch that leaves our doors
AND THAT MEANS SOME
THING.
Now, good people, we couldn I
afford to- spend money in telling
you all of this unless we had the
goods to back up what we tell
you.
Seeing is believing-and if
you ii JUS take :ir,e "a drop in
and take peep at what we have
to offer you-you1l wonder how
I'VE do it-but the main thing is,
that we do all we say-and a lit
tie more too.
