RIVER IMPROVEMENT.

The recommendation of the federal engineers that dredging of the Ar kansas river should be deferred until such time as the traffic on the river justifies the expenditure must not be permitted to be carried out, if there is any honorable way. to prevent. Cessation of work to make the Ar kansas navigable throughout the year would be an awful blow to the people of the Arkansas valley at this time.
 It is true that for years the ad- vantages of water transportation have been ignored by the people oi this valley, but the same may be said If the people residing adjacent to other streams, which have been or are being made navigable at the ex- pcnse of the federal government.
 There has been an awakening, however, and an organized movement is now under way to utilize the ad- Tantages offered by the Arkansas river for cheap water transportation; 10. profit by the stream which pro- vides Arkansas valley interests with water communication to all parts of the world. Because of this fact; be- cause the people are now endeavor- ing to restore traffic on the stream to former proportions, it would be dis astrous to the development and pro gress of the valley if the engineers recommendation is followed.
 There is yet opportunity to prevent action that will stop the improvement of the river. If our people will show to the federal authorities what is being done to restore river traffic, and plans for the future, it is unlike ly that congress will place such an obstacle in the development of the Af- kansas valleys vast resources as abandonment of work on the river would prove. Unfavorable reports by engineers have been overcome be- fore, because it has been shown that while the engineers were eminently well qualified to speak as to cost O. improvements and the work neces- sary, yet they showed woeful lack or information as to the direct and in direct benefits to ensue from. the i'm provements of which they dlsapprov- ed. This has been the history of the gulf inter-cosstal canal, and yet that waterway is now nearing completion
 Another fact that must be borne III mind is that the Arkansas river will now accommodate only light draft vessels for part of the year, and that traffic cannot be developed as long as tha stream remains in the conal- ton it is now. Arkansas valley inter- csts are prepared to uti.ze the etregm when it is made navlgable hccanse. like those of other sections they have learned their lesson Pine Bluff is now operating packets De. tween this city and the mouth or the river. and steps taken at Little hocf and other points indicate that addl. tional steamers and barge lines VII he operated as soon as 1t IS possioi, fo do so-as soon as the river WI accommodate the traffic. ,s

WEAK STOMACHS CAUSE GAS

Stomach gas which is cause of great discomfort to many people is caused by the food being retained so long that it ferments if it is vegetable food or putre- fies if it is animal food. The usual treat nent is to forbid the use of the food that is causing the trouble. This stops the discomfort caused by gas but few people like to be put on limited diet. They generally try another doctor.
 Food is retained until it causes gas be- cause the digestion is weak. That is a simple statement of complicated condi- tion. Digestive weakness may involve a deficient secretion of digestive fluids, lack of force in the nerves that control diges- ton, many things, but back of them all is thin blood. "Without rich, red blood good digestion is impossible is an estab- lished fact in medicine. You can enrich your blood with Dr. Williams Pink Pills and begin at once to restore your dis ordered digestion until you can eat what you want, within reason, and enjoy it. These pills have direct action on the nervessalso and % are m ideal digestive tonic.
 Your own druggist sells pr. Williams Fink Pills. A diet book, "What to Eat and How to Eat,'' that will help you solve your stomach problems will be sent you free on request by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y.

 The defendants are alleged through Enc filing of the false manifest to have eaused the collector of the port to

To Grow Hair on
A Bald Head
ISy n Specialist

Thousands Of people suffe"
from badness and falling hair
who. having tried nearly every ad-
vertised hair-tonic and hair
grower without results, have re-
signed themselves to badness and
its attendant discomfort. Yet
their case is not hopeless; the fol-
lowing simple home prescription
has made hair grow after years
of badness, and Is also unequaled
for restoring gray hair to its orig
final color, stopping hair from
falling out and destroying the
dandruff germ. 1t will not mako
the hair greasy, and can be put
up by any druggist: Bay Rum. 6
ounces; Lavona de Composee, 2
ounces; Menthol Crystals, one
half drachm. If you wish it per-
fumed, add / drachm of your IA
vorite perfume. This preparation
is highly recommended by physic-
ians and specialists, and is abso-
lutely harmless, as II contains
none of the poisonous wood alco-
hol so frequently found in hair
tonics.

u. S. and GERMANY
Still NOT AGREED

WASHINGTON. ID. c., July ..
Despite assurances on the part
of both governments, the United
States and Germany are still far
from peaceable solution of the
questions arising from the Lusl-
tania disaster.
Reports from Ambassador Ger
ard that Germany has offered less
than the United States demanded
of her, and that the kaiser's gov
eminent has further asked him to
tell at once what he thinks of its
proposal have caused genuine
concern in the national capital.
Gerard has been instructed that
he is not to give the informal
opinion which Germany requests,
and was further informed that
the note of the kaiser, as Gerard
outlined 1t to the state depart
