w. C. T. U.

The meeting with Mrs. Colvin yes terday was well attended and the votes of victory given showed there was no cessation in the onward march of prohibition, and other reforms.
 The Union sent telegram to the Senate of our own state protesting against the passage of the Hot Springs race and gambling bill. We hope ev- cry Christian who reads these lines will do likewise. Let Arkansas take no backward step. If the Christian people were as active as the enemy much evil legislation would be averted Let us learn lesson from him, for it is only by eternal vigilence that we bring that liberty that comes through the reign of truth.
 Four valuable members were added to the Union,-Mrs. Colvin, Miss Mar ion Brooks, Miss Clara Young, and Mrs. Ruby Waller. How we covet the young people as well as the older onesl When the young people put their heads together to accomplish a thing, their holy enthusiasm and opti- mism knows no bounds and they us ually accomplish that on which they set their hearts. We need you, dear young people.-Reporter

Makes His Horse Run a Dynamo

In the current issue of Farm and Preside contributor tells as follows how an Ohio farmer makes his horse operate a dynamo from which cleo tricity is developed to light the house, run cream separator and an ice cream freezer:
 Our old friend the horse is going into the electric-light producing busi- ness through an invention patented by Robert D. McCreery of Ohio.
 "'If' said Mir. McCreery, a horse can give power to a wagon, why cant he give energy to dynamo?'
 'In other words horse, figured Me Creery, could be used as a one-horse power engine.
 | "So he invented a harness attached to a set of gears which are in turn attached to a dynamo. The horse steps into the harnss and starts walk ing around and around l4-foot track at the rate of one mile and a half an hour, making electricity all the while.
 "lf the horse should stop, an cleo trically controlled bell rings, as much as to say Giddap Dobbin, and an electrically controlled whip taps him l lightly on the back.
 "The lectricity Dobbin thus makes goes into a storage battery, and by working three hours during each of two days Dobbin can make enough electricity to light Groom house for week.
 The farmer needs light most in winter time when his horse works least, said McCreery, and running a dynamo few hours day for tive days in week is one of the easiest things horse can do.'
 'The dynamo can also be hitched to a motor which will run a crean separator or an ice cream freezer"

more or less convinced, and the wedding
was arranged for 4 o'clock, at the Cath
olic Church of Our Lady, Help of Chris

on the subject. No, he wanted the priv-
lege of taking the occasional glass. SO
Mrs. Strup decided to wait to see If he
would yield to further argument.
She lives at 32l4 Miller street and Sill
