LIQUOR TRAFFIC. A PERIL.

Prohibition is inevitable in this
country, says the Boston Advertiser.
With practically the whole world con-
ceding that alcohol is a bad handicap
to any nation, and that the abolition
OF its use means a healthy--not an
artificial--increase in the efficiency of
the average producer, public senti-
ment in this country is going to wipe
out the saloon, just as 1t has wiped
out such nuisances as the polluted
public or private water supply, or the
manufacture Of poisoned foods or en-
balmed meatstuffs. They we're abol-
ished because they were danger to
national safety and efficiency. And
the saloon is certain to be abolished
In precisely the same way and for
precisely the same reason.

AS LIQUOR SELLER SEES IT.

Being interviewed by newspaper
reporter on the subject OF prohibition
One which is ON everybody's tongue
Barney Grogan, well-known Chica-
go liquor dealer, had this to say:
III they voted the wet-dry question
In Chicago some Sunday morning the
whole city would go dry. It's the men
and women who are wet personally
who will finally decide the issue. They
are Hopping about and will try 1t as
an experiment. Maybe they will go
back-maybe not. They don't know
exactly whore they are at-especiaiiy
the morning after pay day. But the
prohibition wave is getting bigger
every day."

with the expectation Of staying two
weeks, and just nacher'ly hungered
and thirsted for the simple life, as
he called 1t. And then about the
first thing he did was to seek to pick
sandbar off from the left hind fet-

REORGANIZATION.

A wedding of much interest to hosts of Conway friends was solemn ized yesterday afternoon at o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Bruce, 511 College avenue, when Miss Leona Maddox, daughter of Mrs. M. J. Maddox, became the bride of Dr. Guy P. Patterson of Fordyce.
 For the occasion, the beautiful home was attractively decorated with white chrysanthemums and greenery. The place of ceremony was marked by an improvised altar, banked with these snowy blossoms. The bridal party entered through aisles of rib bons, in the following order: Mrs. R. G. Bruce, matron of honor, little Daisy Maddox Bruce, the tiny niece of the bride, carrying the ring on a silver tray, preceding the bride. From the opposite aisle the groom and his best man, Dr. J. A. Talbot of For dyce, met them at the altar, where Dr. i F. s. H. Johnston, pastor of the Con- way Methodist church, said the cere- mony. Miss Robbie Maddox sang "Because," just before the ceremony, and Miss Laura Harton played Loh- engrin's Wedding March, accompa- nied by Miss Sallie Harton, violin. Misses Evie Shaw. Leila Smith, Daisy Bruce and Stella Hale, of For dyce, held the ribbons. Cream and cake with the color note of pink and white was served. The bride was charmingly gowned in white crepe de chine, wore a veil held in place with coronet of valley lilies and carried a shower bouquet of valley lilies and roses. The matron of honor wore a dainty costume of white over pink and carried American beauty roses. Lit 1 tie Daisy Maddox Bruce was dressed in white with pink ribbons.
 Dr. and Mrs. Patterson left on the 6:26 train for their home in Fordyce. The brides goingaway gown was a blue cloth tailored suit, with accessor- ies to harmonize.
 Mrs. Patterson has ever been one of Conway's most popular and charm ing young ladies. She is an accom- plished young woman, well fitted to grace the lovely new home over which she will preside.
 Dr. Patterson is rising young dentist of Fordyce. They received many beautiful and handsome we'd ding presents.
 The out of town guests were: pr. and Mrs. J. A. Talbot, MT. and Mrs. Wort Evans, Miss Stella Hale and J. Elliott of Fordyce.

GIRLS! DRAW A MOIST CLOTH THROUGH HAIR.
 DOUBLE IFS BEAUTY
TRY THIS! HAIR GETS THICK GLOSSY, NAVY AND BEAU
 TIFUL AT ONCE.

Immediate? Yes! Certain? That's
 the joy of it. Your hair becomes light, wavy, fluffy, abundant and ap- pears as soft, lustrous and beautiful
 as a young girls after a Danderine hair cleanse. Just try this-moisten a cloth with a little Danderine and
 carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time.
 This will cleanse the hair of dust, dirt or excessive oil, and in just a few mo- ments you have doubled the beauty of
 your hair. A delightful surprise awaits those whose hair has been neg
 lected or is scraggy, faded, dry, brit tie or thin. Besides beautifying the hair, Danderine dissolves every par ticle of dandruff; cleanses, purifies
 and invigorates the scalp, forever stopping itching and falling hair, but
 what will please you most will be aft CT a few weeks use, when you see
 new hair-fne and downy at first
 yes-but really new hair growing all
 over the scalp. If you care for pret-
 ty, soft hair, and lots of it surely get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's Dan-
 derine from any drug store or toilet
 counter and just try it.-Adv.
