NEW AND COMPLETE MAP AND REFERENCE GUIDE TO AR
 KANSAS

NANSAS.
 About everything that anyone would want to know about Arkansas in a geographical or statistical way is con tained in a neat, pocket-size map and guide just published by F. M. Blaisdell, Bankers' Trust Building, Little Rock ] his is the latest map of the state and it shows the locations of all new post offices, all new railroad exten- sions and other geographical changes, including the recent enlargement of lulask County by the annexation of township formerly belonging to Sa. line County. The data assembled in this book represent great deal of pa- tient and careful work on the part of Miss Lillian Blaisdell, who gathered the information from plats and rec ords.
 All railroad lines are shown, with the names of the express companies operating over them. The population of each city, town and village is given. There are some interesting general facts about Arkansas. The govern. ment forest reserves are designated in a special color. The route of the natural gas pipe lines in the state is shown, as is also the location of the Little Rock-Pine Bluff and the Little Rock-Hot Springs bikes. A summary of the government homestead laws is given, with a table showing the amount of land in each county subject to homesteading. The lists of towns, counties, rivers, lakes and streams are arranged in alphabetical order with symbols and signs to indicate where any particular town, lake or river may be found on the accompanying map.
 This book is worth several times more than the 25 cents asked for it. Copies may be had by ordering from ?. M. Blaisdell by mail or telephone.

FOREST PARK PROPERTY VALUES HELPED BY LOCATION OF
 NEW COLLEGE.

The city papers haven't had much to say about the moving of Little Rock College to Pulaski Heights. Never theless the college is coming and it is coming without any delay. The plans for the buildings are now being drawn, and the supervising architect is look ing for a location in Forest Park. where he may live during the period of construction, which probably will cover the greater part of the re- mainder of the present year. There is no doubt about the helpful influence that the bringing of this school will be to property values in all of Forest Park. It will help every piece of property on the Heights. There can be no doubt that it will in- crease values perceptibly on all prop erty lying between the Country Club and the College grounds, and around Forest Park.
 Those who were fortunate to buy property in this district before the coming of the school have made good investments. People will begin to take notice of Forest Park now who previously have imagined that it was ''too far out" Not many suburban ad- ditions can boast of three big features such as Forest Park, Little Rock Col lege and the Country Club.
 The man who owns property in this section and who will take a pride in it's improvements, or if it is not inn proved will see that it is cleared of brush and made attractive will get some nice offers before the building of the college is very far along.
 Here are some other benefits that will come with the college-the double tracking of the street car line, the ex- tension of gas mains, ant tne installa- tion of a modern sewer system. The hundreds of students, scores of in- structors and many visitors will give to the street car company the in- creased patronage that will justify the laying of second track and with all of these new people residing perma- nently in it's midst, Forest Park will find way to get gas ana sewers. Then she will have all of the conveniences Of the city.
 Forest Park is coming fast, and this is no real estate talk.

EXECUTION OF MEN NO LONGER
 A PUBLIC ENTERTAINER

Two negro murderers were executed at the state penitertiary one day last week, and probably not more than 50 people in Little Rock knew anything about it until the electrocution was over. Had these men been put to death in the rural communities, where the crimes were committed it would have been an occasion for an outpour- ing of the populace, and their crimes, and the manner of their paying the penalties demanded by the law, would have been live topics Of discussion fo" days and weeks. There is no doubt but what the centralizing of legal ex- ecution at the state penitentiary is a good thing, if the death penalty must be enforced

G. \. HEBB SAYS
HE'S GOT CURES
FOR COWS, HOGS
AND INVALID men

p. II. Hebb, the Tacoma capt.
talist and power plant promoter,
Is now going into the medical
field. On his return from six
weeks eastern trip today, Hebb
announces the Organization Of a
chemical company to place three
remedies on, the market, one for
rheumatism, one for COW tubercu-
losis and the third for hog chol-
era.
Discussing the new proposition
Hebb said.
About two and half years ago
l secured an option ON three spe-
cific formulas. one OF which Is a
remedy for the cure Of rheuma-
tism. or for the causes which pro-
duced the disorder, and since thar
time | have experimental with
the medicine In Tacoma and
Pierce county and different places
in the east and south, also Alas
ka. have given the remedy to
over 500 people. and IN no In
stance has II failed to do the
work. In many cases the reac-
ton and cure seemed miraculous.
THE second specific is of equal
II not greater Importance. A
anti-tubercula remedy for cattle.
which is proven beyond doubt as
a cure and prophylactic. When
the disease has been established u
few months treatment will cure
the animal and imunize the sys-
tenn against further attacks. The
greater value of the remedy will
be its power of prevention and
system building qualities.
The third is an anti-speciflc
for hog cholera, which Is also
proven to be cure and prophy-
letic or preventative remedy. The
value Of hogs lost by this disease
last year amounted to nearly fifty
million of dollars. Federal and
state governments are spending
enormous sums every year, expert
menting on different serums, but
as yet have failed to find the
much-needed remedy. | am salts
