 White hair is so universally becom- ing that it Is a pity that so many elderly women resent it to the degree of dyeing it. or covering it up with and changes our hair to blend with our skin.

 Hair experts disagree as to whether srayness can be cured or not, but some authorities insists that cures have been effected by internal doses bf su1- phur and iron, accom- panied by the use of egg on the scalp. Grayness results from diminished pigmentation and the sulphur and iron supply the blood with those elements upon which the color of the hair depends.

 A girl Of sixteen is decidedly too young to put her thoughts on Iove-or lovers Have nothing to do with a voting man who would counsel you to deceive and cheat your dear kilisfolhs.
 Not the Man For Me.
 Dear Miss Libbey:
 What do you think of a young man who is always eating cloves and cslrda- nom seeds? A gentleman visits me regularly, but if the room is the least warm he gets droWsy and almost falls asleep. My mother thinks he drinks, but we are not sure. He wants to marry me, but cannot get to like him, although he is not bad looking.

 It would seem to me that you have good grounds in thinking the young man ndu1ges in liquor. Never wed a man who 1s a slave to that napiE- tive him the benefit of the doubt however; he may have been out in the wind or working hard. {. Changing SweetEearts.

PROFITABLE FARM
 CAMPAIGN CLOSES
FORTY COUNTIES HAVE BEEN COVERED BY ADVOCATES
 OF DIVERSIFICATION.
85,O0O PEOPLE ARE REACHED
1,2o0 Meetings Held on Farms, at Schools and in Towns by Force
 of Agricultural Experts.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-Forty counties cover- ed, totaling in area nearly 30,000 miles.
 One thousand, two hundred meet irgs held on farms, at schools and in towns.
 Eighty-five thousand people attend ed the meetings.
 Fifty thousand miles travelled over the railroads.
 Nearly ten thousand miles travelled in automobiles.
 Three hundred and twenty-five thousand farming articles distributed.
 This is the record of the great Profitable Farming campaign that closes in Yell county on Friday. When it ends the campaign will have lasted for little over a month-from November g to December II. Never has a farming campaign of these di- mansions been carried on in any state in the Union The work in Ar kansas breaks all records for a unit ed effort of all the interests of state to break away from a one-crop sys-
 
 tenn and raise enough produce to feed itself. Never in any state have the business men and farmers come to- gether in a movement of such size to bring about diversified farming, live stock raising, better markets and in- creased immigration.
 The results of this unprecedented campaign are already apparent All over the state the women are getting ready to have on their Christmas din- ner tables only the products grown in Arkansas. The railroads and the real estate men are already working out a plan to bring thousands of immigrants into Arkansas, not only from the big industrial oenters in this country, but from Germany, France and Belgium. The bankers and merchants are form ulating plans for lending money and extending credit on live stock and oth- CT crops besides cotton, and for re- ducing the cotton acreage. Thou sands of farmers have stated their in- tention of having diversity of crops and of raising more poultry and live stock. Thousands are going to have home gardens all the year around. Many of the boys and girls are being given the chance to raise chickens and pigs. Let Arkansas Feed Her self" is the slogan for farmers and business men in Arkansas this com ing year.
 This week-the last of the cam paign-will be carried on in the Fort Smith trade territory. Following the Yell county meetings the campaign CTS will return to Little Rock and disperse.
 F. G. Holden, chief of the l. H. C. farming forces, will return to Chicago for a short time before he and his as- sociates go to Texas to help the peo- pie there in campaign like the one in Arkansas. After the work in Texas they will probably go to Alabama, Louisiana and Virginia for campaigns in these states.

 Berlin, via London.-It is officially announced that the Germans occupied LOdz Sunday.
 Lodz, city of some 100000 popula- tion, is the chief manufacturing cen ter of Russian Poland. It has numer- ous textile mills, the majority of them for the manufacture of cotton goods. In addition, it has machinery plants. flour mills, dyeing establishments, brick yards and breweries. The popu- lation is made up of Poles, Germans and Jews.
 The evacuation by the Germans Saturday night of Vernelles, south west of Bethune, In northern France, was officially announced here Sunday. The statement says:
 "Vernelles was evacuated by us, ac- cording to our plan, on account of the continuous French artillery fire which was causing unnecessary loss. The buildings which remained standing were blown up by us, and our troops occupied positions prepared east of Vernelles SO that the enemy could not follow.
 Southwest of Atwirch the French renewed their attack with reinforce. mentA but without success, and they suffered heavy losses.
 Reports received in Berlin indi- cate that the Servians still are capa. ble of offering considerable resistance The Servian rear guard in the neigh borhood of Arandjelovac (about 40 miles southeast of Belgrade) have de lvered several attacks to cover the retreat of the main army.
 Although for two days there have been no details of operations in any of the theaters of the war, entire con- fidence is felt in Berlin that events are progressing favorably for the Ger. man arms. The report that in Poland operations are following their normal course can only mean success in the German advance, as checks would not be described as normal.

Proposed Amendment Amended.

The Legislative Committee of the Arkansas Federation of Labor, consist ing of President G. E. Mikel, Carl Schweighart of Little Rock, and Wm Westwood of Hartford, have just com pleted revision of the proposed erendum Amendment the Fede- ration is initiating. Complaint had been made in some quarters, notably by representatives of the Anti-Saloon League, that the proposed amendment was too broad. Three important changes were made.
 As originally drafted, the amend ment barred the Supreme Court from nullifying any statute or measure adopted by the people. It is now pro vided that it may be set aside by a unanimous court.
 It was also provided that the Legis. lature could not repeal or amend an act passed by the people. As revised, this may be done by a three-fourths vote of the Legislature.
 The section permitting units of gov ernment less than the state to in1. tiate laws in conflict with general laws of the state was cut out
 The original petition was already in circulation and had about five thou. sand signatures. These petitions have been withdrawn, and it is being re- printed at considerable expense, 10 eliminate opposition as far as possible.
