Practice for Teeth.

If the introduction and universal
use of war bread" in place of fresh
white bread, has no iother result, it
will at least, in the opinion or
prominent medical men of Ger
many, teach men to masticate their
food properly.
Inmates of hospitals especially
have complained of the new bread.
At recent gathering of Berlin hos
pital psychologists and bacteriolo-
gists, such complaining persons
were termed neurasthenics with
weak stomachs, and it was declared
that the war bread would actually
serve to help their condition by
making them masticate more thor
oughly.
1t was urged that their "idiosyn-
cracies" and their dislike of the war
bread be overcome by appeals to
their patriotism, by PHYSIOLOGY,
by teaching them to chew properly,
and, lastly, by preparing the new
kind of breadstuffs appetizingly,

NOVEL SCHEME TO
BOOST HOME TRADE
Arkadelphia Man Starts New Dollar
Bill on Rounds, Keeping Record
Of Purchases.

Arkadelphia, May 3.-An econom-
ic scheme for promoting home thrift
has been evolved by H. c. Couch,
president of the Arkansas Power
Company. He started new ona
dollar bill by purchasing a home
made product, the recipient of the
dollar in turn doing likewise, each
time placing the signature and the
article bought with the profit made
on a paper which accompanies the
dollar. 1t is remarkable how many
times a dollar changes hands and
when kept in a community, earns
more than one supposes. This dol
lar in two weeks has been owned
by dozens and it is looked for with
interest. 1t is called the "Stay-at-'
Home Dollar" and the motive is to
show what money kept at home and
in circulation can do toward en-
riching a city or a community, in
stead of sending it off to mail order
house, etc. A weekly paper here
chronicles the movements of the dol
lar. It will finally be framed and
displayed.

WINDS AND HAIL
DO MUCH DAMAGE
House and Trees Blown Down Near
Manila and Dell-Hail In

From Tuesdays Daily Press

(From Tuesdays Daily Press)
Parties arriving in Paragould
.this morning from BlytheVille say
reports reached that city early last
night to the effect that a terrific
wind storm did much damage to
crops and buildings at Manila and
Dell and surrounding territory yes
terday afternoon. 1t was also re-
ported several parties were serious
ly injured by falling buildings and
timber, but no definite information
as to the extent of the injuries
could be obtained.
Sheriff Sam Mauldin of Missis-
sippi county, who is here as wit
ness in 4e Carpenter case, said
the storm ragged fiercest along the
j., l.. C. and E. railroad, and that
the wind was accompanied by hail
and storm that stripped the young
corn and garden truck.
Reports reacing Paragould last
night anu tHIS LuOIulHS rum sever dl
sections of Greene county indicate
that in some sections the wind was
strong enough to blow trees down
and the hail large enough to do
damage to growing crops and gar
dens. r. w. Meriwether talked
over the telephone to the foreman
of his place near Marmaduke last
night and was told that the cotton
and corn were cut to pieces by the
hail. He was also advised that the
wind reached velocity that almost
made it a storm, and that a great
deal of timber was blown down.
From other sections of the county
come similar reports, while in some
sections fine showers fell unaccom-
panied by the hail.

WAR AND WOMEN.
(By Ebert Hubbard J


May women go to war? Women
can--and have-and do.
Clara Barton did. She spend
more years on the battlefield than
did Won Moltke, Grant, Sherman or
Sheridan.
Clara Barton did She spent
soldiers throughout the Civil war
She went to Europe to forget AM
erica's war and found herself amid
the horrors of the Franco-Prussian
battlefields.
The clincher to the whole round
of arguments in opposition to wo-
man suffrage is the platitude: "Wo-
men cannot go to war, therefore,
they must not be allowed to vote
And again, The final test of cit
izenship is the ability TO defend
ones country"
heard man say, How it would
look to see a regiment of women
making a charged"
And his audience laughed.
But a regiment of women have
made a charge, and neither the wo-
men who made the charge nor the
enemy" laughed.
When women fight they do so to
save oAe children, their homes,
their town, their country, Theirs is
a fight for freedom.
Women go to war as did Clara
Barton, as organizers of relief SER
vice, as nurses, as assistants to sur
geons, as protectors, as mothers.
Do women think of the dangers
of the battlefield? No more than
do men. 1t is the mother spirit
which is aroused and active in wo-
men in war time.
The mother is the sacrificer. She
does not think of her own safety
when her child is in danger.
Women who come to the relief of
the wounded on the battlefield. in
hospital tents, are not there for the
abstract something which we call
patriotism"
They are there to relieve suffer
ing, to minister to the sick. to take
care of and save the lives of the
people who make nation, who are
the state.
This does not mean that woman
loves the state less, but she loves
humanity more.
The quarrel? That sinks into oh
ilvlon when men are stretching out
arms for help-and she can save
them.
Confederate pain, Federal main
English pain, Prussian pain, Pain |
is pain to women. Jew or Gentle
bond or free, are all one to her.
Pain creates democracy in the
hearts of mothers.

FISH COMMISSION
TO VISIT U. P.

It is understood that all four of the
members Of the Michigan fish commits
sion are heartily in favor Of the Iocat-
ing in the upper peninsula Of Michigan
Of the proposed state bass hatchery,
for which the next legislature win be
asked for an appropriation. 1t is pro-
posed to establish at least one bass
hatchery during the next couple Of
years, perhaps more than one, and
there has been strong pressure brought
to bear to have that hatchery located in
Houghton or Keweenaw counties, where
very favorable conditions, perfect water
and weather conditions and other ad-
vantages are to be found.
John c.. Mann, Of Houghton, prop
rietor Of the Douglass house, Is q MEM
Der Of the fish commission. The other
members are Fred Postal, Of Detroit,
w. l.. Hunsaker, Of Saginaw who is
president Of the board. and Seymour
Bower, of Detroit.
The fish commission will visit the
upper peninsula some time next spring
according the present plans, to look
over the sites and advantages offered
for the location of the proposed new
hatchery in this part Of the state.
Several sites have proposed in the cop
per country. it is stated, among them
locations both in Keweeraw and Hough-
counties that offer peculiar advantages
desired or necessary. AN Of these sites
will be investigated closely.
Pure and uncontaminated water,
railroad transportation advantages, nat
ural park privileges sno the like are
among the advantages asked by the
fish commission. These advantages
are to be found-in many places in the
copper country.
Why not have the commission visit
the various streams in Baraga country?
We have . number of rivers that are
crossed by the railroad and have good
shipping facilities. and are in every
way fitted for Q hatchery.
