You see, Mr.. Felix, there's very
close friend of mine, a very close
friend indeed, who is in a position to
give advance information connected
with horse racing. He can't give the
information a long way ahead, you I'M

an opinion when it's given that way.

reposed the $4,000 he was destined

teal way so that readers can follow
up her suggestions and make definite
use of them. In general way her
policy is to show women how they can
make use of the latest fashions with
out extravaganza. An interesting
feature of this months fashion de-

Madame Paquin's design by Henry

Another strong feature of the Sep

articles reporting a minister's expert

is entitled "The Woman Who Came

woman who went to her pastor when
she was in serious trouble, and the
story reveals the immense response

for service in their communities. An
other interesting article is an account
of what has been done at Freiburg,

LURE OF The BRIGHT LIGHTS
Uncle Nose Could Not Be Satisfied
While He Felt Himself Out of
"Public Life"

A negro waiter named Nose had
served with a measure of distinction
for several years in a downtown New
York restaurant WITH a large patron
age among business men. One day
last spring customer offered him a
good position as servant at his coun'
try home. He was to have a uice uni
form with brass buttons, and the pay
was to be much better than he was
getting. Nose accepted-envied by
his white-coated associates.
One morning recently Nose turned
I'D at the restaurant and startled the
proprietor by asking for his old job.
why have you left Mr.. Browns
service?" asked the proprietor. Did
he discharge you? Didn't he treat you
well?"
NO, sir, amt been discharged
and they certainly did treat me all
right" responded Nose promptly.
Then why in the world come back
here? The pay is less and the work
is harder"
Nose paused looked vacantly out of
the window for moment, and with
a broad grin on his face, whispered: Il

EXPRESS RATES INEXPLAIN-
ABLE.

How the Wells-Fargo Express Co.
arrived at many of its rates on ship
ments in and out of Green Forest is
ineXplainable. Some of the charges
are very unjust and discriminating,
not to say outrageous.
For instance, the rate on fruit from
Joplin to Green Forest is 81 cents per
hundred, while the rate from joplin
to Berryville is 6S cents, or a differ
ence of 10 cents for only Is miles.
The rate on poultry and eggs from
Green Forest to st. Louis is S1.43 for
"a distance of about $50 miles. The
rate from Green Forest to Helena on
this same class of stuff one hundred
miles less in distance is $2.15.
Recently the rate from Little Rock
to Green Forest has been raised from
$3.50 to $3.50 per hundred, which is
considerably in excess of the parcel
post rate.-Green Forest Tribune.
Haven't you heard that this in
crease in express rates between Ar
kansas points was made by the Ar
kansas Railroad Commission and don't
you know that the people knew moth
ing about it until they began paying
the increased rate? Act. No. which
you oppose, provides that the Arkan-
sas Railroad Commission shall pub
lish its general orders in one paper in
every county of the state This gen
eral order would have cost in publca-
ton fee S4 per county You, your
self, might have saved enough in this
way within three months to pay the
entire publication expense for Carroll
county.

Arkansas county judges are almost
unanimously favoring the adoption of
Act. No. 3. AS these officials have
much to do with the expenditure of
public money, their opinions will have
considerable weight in this campaign.
Celia of Miller, Williams of Marion,
Cook of Chicot, George of Yell and
numerous others have declared public
ly for the measure and think it is the
best publicity law ever proposed in
any state. These county judges be-
lieve the people have right to know
and they think the people ought to be
informed about county affairs. Fur
thermore they have tried many cases
in which ignorance of the law had
resulted in violations and civil losses
to many citizens, hence they favor the
publication of a synopsis of all gen.
eral laws as provided by Act No. 3.
