Few Drink ENOUGH Water.

1t is surprising how many people
drink little or no water. There is
no greater purifying agent than plen-
ty of water internally. An abundance
of it not only fushes the entire sys-
tenn, but improves the action of the
skin, hence the complexion. Care
should be taken that the water drunk
is free from germs. If there is any
doubt, boil it. Do not confne yourself
exclusively to either cold or hot water.
and do not take either at extreme tenn
peratures. Juicy fruits are excellent
in addition, as they help to thin the
blood and stimulate the liver.

for all that, he did some very efficient
work in the way of deft and telling
blow or two upon the nose of his over
towering foe, who sat astride his
wriggling body, but wholly unable to

"Durn you!" said Billy, with his
hand gripping the boys throat, "holler

Billy, in a tragic whisper in the boys
ear. "Durn ye! boiler 'Calfrope!'"
The boy only shook his head, trem-
bled convulsively, let fall his eyelids,
and lay limp and, to all appearance,
unconscious.
The startled Billy loosed his hold,
rose halfway to his feet, then fierce
ly pounced again at his rival.
But it was too late. The ruse had
succeeded, and the boy was once more
on his feet.

Straight away the consumers of the amber fluid held impromptu parties, to re- joice at their good fortune. "Yo-Ho," they chortled, twenty bumpers for twenty jitneys-we are in clover"
 But their joys were shOrt-lived. Members of the liquor dealers fra ternity decided they could not con scientiously endorse a cut in the price of lager. And a meeting was held. And Mir. Scribner was not invited to the meeting. And after due consider ation, MT. Scribner's plan was over ruled.
 And so, in the course of events, Mr. Scribner called off the signwriter from the fancy figure "5" which was about to emblazoned on the broad windows of the Louvre. And the beer is ten cents a glass today.

BRUND|DCf NOT TO
 RUN FOR GOVERNOR
WILL PUSH PRIMARY ACT

 LATURE KILLED.

Little Rock, April 19.-The state ment is positively made that under no circumstances will Stephen Brun- didge, Jr., be candidate for govern or in the 1916 primary. Instead he is to take the stump in the interest of the primary election bill, which was defeated by the last legislature 1t the instance of Gov. G. w. Hays and several other prominent politi- tians of the state.
 Whether an act containing the pro- visions of the defeated bill will be initiated has not finally been deter mined, but if it is not, the matter will
 aired befoe the voters in such a way that the legislators who are seek .ng reelection will be sounded on the question before the votes are cast.
 Stephen Brundidge's prowess or .he stump is well known, and with in
 ormation concerning primary cleo lions of the rast which he is known to have, and which he will pass or to the voters during this campaign he is sure to be drawing card at the ,ummer and fall barbecues.

LITTLE ROCK SCHOOLS
 NAME 10 BE CHANGED
OLD NAME WAS FEDERAL OF TIGERS WHO ORDERED
 DODD'S EXECUTION,

Little Rock, April 19.-The motto of societies which are intended to preserve the tender memories of Con- federate deeds of valor, 'Lest We Forget" seems to have done their work well, for in the naming of the new Little Rock public school, to be erected to replace the Fort Steele school which was destroyed by fire some weeks ago, nothing has been forgotten. The new school will bear the name of Judge U. M. Rose.
 The old school bore the name of the fort which was formerly located on the site occupied by the school building. The forest was named for Gen. Steele, who captured Little Rock during the Civil war and remained in command here for some time. Gen. Steele was a Federal officer Judge U. M. Rose was one of Arkan- sas, most distinguished jurists.
 Aside from being mere Federal officer, Gen. Steele was the officer in command at the time David o. Dodd was captured, ana IL Was ne WHo UT dered the execution of the youthful hero.
 Had the Fort Steele school not burned it would have been replaced by a new building, as it was one of the oldest school buildings in the sttae, and the opposition to the name of Steele, because of the David O.. Dodd incident, would have arisen just the same.
 A new high school in the west end of Little Rock will bear the name of the late Judge w. M. Kavanaugh.

PACK 10 FARM"
 SAlOQN|S1S' PLAN

Little Rock, April 19.-Several liquor houses in Arkansas that have existed for many years, will close their doors on December 31, and the proprietors will never again, accord Ing to their statements, engage in the liquor traffic. Many of the wholesale liquor houses have already made their plans for opening in St. Louis and other places on January |. Most of the retail liquor men will en- gage in other business, for fully 65 per cent are residents of the cities in which they are now operating, own property there and cannot move away. Most of. the Little Rock sa- loon men have begun arranging for after the first of the year, and they, as we'll as many of the bartenders, figure on remaining in this city
 Farming seems to be the principal attraction for the retiring saloonists.

GAINESVILLE TEAM
 10 PLAY HENDRIX

The Arkansas Cumberland College baseball aggregation of Clarksville will meet the Hendrix College Bull dogs tomorrow and Wednesday on Russell field, each game being called at 1 o'clock D. m. The Mountaineers took the Bulldogs measure in two games in the mining town last week. and a,e expecting to repeat the dose in the boys own home town. But that they will succeed is doubtful, ac- ording to local sport fans, who opine the black and orange nine are in 2 better condition at present than when they played Cumberland last week, ard that they already have decided to win both contests.
 That the games are going to be closely contested is a foregoing con- clusion. They probably will be the most interesting of the season.
 The new grandstand and bleachers erected by the Athletic Association, will be ready for use at tomorrow s game. The grandstand is in three sections, and will seat about 400 peo- pie. The bleachers will seat about 25O. The admission to the gate will be 25 cents, to the grandstand 10 cents, and to the bleachers free.
