MOROSE MAN LOSES FRIENDS
Serious Error Is the Habit Of Taking
Offense When Nothing of the
Kind Is Intended.

Some persons are always in an un,
comfortab BILE frame Of mind If not down,
right unhappy. And this even when
there is not any real cause for unhap,
piness or grief. but when small of.
fenses or negligences to which no
second thought should be given are
magnifed. The more one allows his
mind to dwell on these things, the
greater he finds them He views him
self as being always in the right, and
recounts the favors he has bestowed
These so occupy him he forgets favors
received. With this disposition, man
seldom stops at nursing his wrong
thoughts in his own mind. He talks
of them to others, presenting the char
acter Of one with whom he is offended
in wrong light. thereby doing an in
justice. He is so filled with bitter
thought Of his grievance that his
gloomy face and dismal tone cast
gloom on those about him. He be-
comes so mOrose that his company Is
disagreeable. Others, observing his
disposition to take offense quickly,
feel that it may be their turn next to
irritate him. One cannot enjoy free
dom of conversation when someone is
watching for Sights. How much bet
ter it would be in the first place to
say. He meant no offense,' or Per
haps he has troubles Of his own that
make him negligent" Better first look
fairly at ones own conduct and see
if every word or every act will bear
being weighed in the balance. Life
is too short and too valuable to be
wasted in useless dissenson. Think
the best and speak the best you can
of everyone. You will be the better
for it and the appier.-Milwaukee

ATTILA, "sCoURGE OF eoD'

HOW GREAT INDUSTRY BEGAN
Chemist May Be Said to Have Stun1-
bIed Over a Discovery of I'M
mense Importance.

An experimenting chemist, endeav.
oring to produce artificial quinine, U.s.
ing base known as aniine, not only
obtained coloring matter called mauve,
but laid the foundation for the coal-tar
color industry, which has developed
until today almost every color and
shade of color is derived from ami
line. Anilne had been obtained previ-
ously from the indigo plant anil"
The discovery of mauve created a
large demand for the artificial aniline
base, and gave unexpected value to
benzine. 1t yielded aniline by being
treated with nitric acid and with the
borings of cast iron powdered into
dust. Having done its work in the
aniline still, the dust was used by the
gas maker to cleanse his coal gas from
sulphur, and then it passed to the
manufacturing chemist, who burned the
sulphur out of it and produced a sui
phuric acid-a cycle of operations
whose beginning and end was the uti-
hZation of waste. This method of pro-
ducing color was responsible for the
desolate madder fields of France and
Holland and for the loss to the Hindus
of their long cherished indigo cultiva-
tion. AnthTacene, one of the heavier
oils of coal tar, caused the fall Of the
madder growing industry. The madder
produced violets, reds. blacks, purple
and dark browns. Anthracene was
sold very cheaply for lubricating pur-
poses until certain chemists heated 1t
with zinc filings and produced alzarin.
and then the secret of the madder
plant was discovered. In this way
chemistry displaced agriculture, ono
pound of alizarin having the coloring
power of ninety pounds of madder,
and the lubricating oil sold at trile
as waste became a valuable coloring
matter.

THE BATTLE Of
THE TIRES

agricultural and Commercial Press serviceI
IL Is interesting to watch the forces
OF civilization battling for supremacy.
Inc struggle now going on between the
rubber and the iron tire promises to
be the liveliest contest of the Twen-
tieth Century.
The struggle is a silent one and
there are no war correspondents to
write vivid descriptions of the con-
nlct but the results are more far
reaching to present and future gen
erations than the war of Europe.
The rubber tire has been maneuver-
ing for point of attack for several
years and has captured a few unim-
portant positions in traffic, but it has
now pitched a decisive battle with
its iron competitor by hurling a mil
lion "jitneys' at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean
to ocean. Upon the result of the
struggle depends the future Of the
rubber tire. If it is compelled to re-
treat, its doom is sealed, but if it wins
the battle it will revolutionize the
transportation methods of this nation.
II the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic it's next struggle is with
the railroads of the country, and then
the greatest battle between economic
forces ever fought out on the face
OF this earth is on, for iron is the un-
disputed master in transportation, and
is fortified behind billions of dollars,
and millions of men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire
to an iron rail in 1914 but it was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Foint, which bound
the country together with bands of
steel. 1t took the iron tire fifty-five
years to creep from ocean to ocean,
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind of the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow of Ulys-
ses. The roadbed was already pre-
pared and therein lies the power of
the rubber tire over that of iron, for
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron is stubborn metal and
1t has mastered every wheel that
turns; has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth
and has never tasted the wormwood
Of defeat, and when rubber hurls it's
full force against this monarch of
the Mineral Kingdom, it may rebound
to the factory stunned beyond recov-
cry.
The rubber tire first made it's ap-
pearance on the bicycle, but it proved
a frivolous servant and was dismissed
for incompetency 1t has always been
too much inclined to revel in luxury
to be taken seriously as a utility ma.
chine and its reputation is not one to
inspire confidence in heavy traffic
performance.
But to those who care to watt into
dreamland, it is enchanting to note
that there will be marvellous differ
ence between a rubber and an iron
age. The rubber tire will scatter the
cities throughout the valleys for with
transportation at every mans door,
why city? 1t will traverse the con
tinent with a net work of Macadam
highways as beautiful as the boule-
ward built by Napoleon. 1t will par
alyZe the law making bodies of this
nation for how could the legislatures
run without the railroads to operate
on?

Protected Against Roques

1t is difficult in Germany for a pro-
fessional rogue to enter a family as a
domestic servant. There every serv-
ant has character book in which the
mistress must enter the dates of the
coming and leaving Of the servant,
with her character while in service
This the girl is obliged to take to the
nearest police station and have it
dated with the official stamp.

KEEP OUT OF DEBT

The curse of farming in the
south is debt; debt brought
about by credit while growing
a crop. Arkansas farmers must
get out of this habit. They are
nearer this possibility now than
ever before. 1t is absurdly
wrong for farmer to have to
ask credit for food for his fam
lily or feed for his team. A far
mer may well go into debt for
"a sow or a cow or a mare OF
even for good pillow or possib-
ly for fertilizer but never for
food or feed, except for coffee
and sugar and such things, and
for flour if he does not grow
wheat. Arkansas farmers have
just get to get out of debt for
the living" Every farmer
should be tagged who does not
have at least fifty good hens,
three sows and two or three
cows and a garden for veget-
ables for all the year.

DISMISS CHARGES
AGAINST DIR. HUGHES
Murder Case Against Walnut
Ridge Physician Nolle Pros
sed in Cir .uit Court.

The case against DR.. j. C.
Hughes of Walnut Ridge, charg-
ed with the murder of |. J.Bag-
ley at Walnut Ridge afewyears
ago was nolle pressed in the In
dependence Circuit Court at
Batesville Monday.
The case was brought to this
county last spring after Hughes
had been tried and acquitted
on another first degree murder
charge for killing Alf Bagley,
son, of |. J. Bagley. Hughes
claimed self-defense in the first
charge and denies that he kill
ed the elder Bagley. There was
nothing but circumstantial evil
dence against him. The cases
were brought to this county on
a change of venue at the re-
quest of the defendant.
The killing of the Bagleys
was the result of a prolonged
Lawrence county feud in which
several men have been killed at
various times.

BOY KILLS HIMSELF

Harrison, Nov. 2.-Dave
Mckinney, Is, killed himself
about IL o'clock yesterday
morning by shooting himself
with shotgun. A load of buck
shot entered his left side above
the heart. He died in a few
minutes. 1t is not known what
his troubles were, but is has
been suggested that his father
had refused to let him marry or
would not agree to give his con-
sent to his marriage a few days
ago upon the ground that he
was too young. He was the son
of w. 7. Mckinney, a prosper
Gus farmer, residing about two
miles north of this city. He load
ed the shotgun with charge
of buckshot, tied a long string
over the trigger, placed the gun
on the floor and put his foot
through the string and pulled
the trigger.

HASLANCER STORE IS
ROBBED SUNDAY NIGHT
Burglars Enter Through Rear
and Make Haul of Money and
GOodS-AmateurS Are SuS-
peCted.

The dry goods store of A c. Has
LANCER and Co., Lincoln highway, W.,
was burglariZed sometime during sun
day night and goods and money
amounting to about $50 were taken.
The discovery was made by Eugene
Ganser, one of the employees, when he
opened the store for business Monday
morning. On the arrival of Mr.. Has
LANCER an investigation was made 1t
was found that entrance had been OBJ
tanned through the rear window, one
of the catches having been broken.
Mr.. Haslanger is inclined to think
that the burglary was committed by
boys who were familiar with the in
terror Of the store, and who knew
where the money and goods were kept
previous to six months ago, since
when new system has been in vogue
From the fact that no more was
taken, Mr.. Haslanger thinks that the
robbery was the work of amateurs.
Among the missing articles is 50 in
money, which was taken from the
safe. which had been left to be used
in making change, and six valuable
leather hand bags and II rings.
Fortunately the money Of Satur-
days big dollar sale had been depos-
lied in a safety deposit vault Satur-
day night, otherwise a large amount in
cash would undoubtedly have been
taken.
The matter has been reported to the
police.
