so SIMPLE IT'S TRUE

Sometimes Werun across people WhoalWays has a vail because his neighbors have a plenty and he has nothing. If we could follow them to the end of their careers we would probably find the neighbors continuing in the en- joyment of plenty while the waller drifts along with his ac- emulation of nothing. Then if we cared to dig down and eX- hume the cause we would doubt less find the neighbors working and improving their opportuni- ties while the waller care lessly allows his to fit by. At least that is the way it appears to us, and it is so simple we believe it to be true.

THE GENTLEMAN AND THE
 CROUCH

Stand a gentleman and a grouch side by side, and which will com mand the greater respect?
 Webster says that a gentleman is a man of refined manners and good behavior, /" while the grouch is gruf and morose.' y
 It IS easy for any man to be a gentleman, and he has much to gain and nothing to lose. It is equally easy to be a grouch, with everything>to lose and noth- ing to gain.
 The gentleman h a s m a n y friends and but few enemies, while the grouch has m y enemies and but few friends.
 God smiles upon the gentleman while the devil smiles at the grouch.
 Life is bright to thegentleman, while to the grouch it is full of gall.
 Be a gentleman if you can, but don't be 8 grouch.

hlg hgrove, Calf, June 24, 1915. Editor Tribune and My Friends in Arkansas: T will write to you again. I have talk en the Tribune ever since it was a tomahaWk and like it fine. I left there 10 years ago and came to California for my health. A change of climate, 1 think, is good but my health is worse again and realize 1 have to die but believe 1 will live some time yet. 1 never expect to eat an other bite of anything that have to chew. 1 have to live on soup and raw eggs. The best physicians 1 can find say my organs are all good but my stomach and 1t is just worn out. 1 am sorry and surprised to find how little doctors know about my trouble. l am selling out my effects here to travel, they tell me 1 will live longer, and have advised me to go to Mayo Bros. the worlds famous physicians, at Rochester, Minn. 1 guess l will go, life is sweet you know.
 Would like to see you all and think l will visit my old home again, If you have health and a home in Arkansas you had bet ter stay there. Take care ot your health and prepare to meet God in peace.

0NE- HiRD OF STATE
 FREED FROM TICKS
sF ADEQUATE FUNDS ARE FORTH CoMgNG ENTIRE STATE lysEl
 BE FREE EN TfsREE YEARS

Washington, D. C., June 30 Very nearly one third of the state of Arkansas is now free from ticks and the entire state, it is estimated, can be released from quarantine in two or three years Ii adequate funds are forthcom- ing. At the end of 1914, S251, ,279 had been spent on the work of eradication, of which STA, 102 had been expended by the Fed eral government, $76, 293 by the State and $884 by the various counties benefited. It is impos- sibIe, however, to estimate from these figures the cost of complet- ing the task, for the results of educational work are not ilnmedi- lately apparent in the release of territory.
 At the end of 1914 there were 200 dipping vats in operation in Arkansas, a number which com pares somewhat unfavorable with the 2, 352 in Mississippi, but which is considerably greater than the number in several other states. Systematic cooperative work was done during the year in Marion, Baxter, Izard, Shaw, Independence, Cross and Wood ruff counties. In March, 1915, lzard and Sharp counties were freed while educational and dem- onstration work is being carried on in Crawford, Franklin, and Searcy counties. It appears from the above that Arkansas is alive to the great loss th5<t 1t has suffered in previous years from the cattle tick, In 1910, the cen- sus stated that in round numbers there were 15million cattle below the Texas fever quarantine line as 1t then existed, and that these cattle represented something more than 270 million dollars. At that time the loss from Texas fever was approximately 13 per cent, or a trifle over Is of the total number of cattle. Thirty four million dollars, therefore, was lost annually in the quaran- tine area through deaths alone. This takes no account of the loss through shrinkage in milk, dis crinination in markets, stunted growth, and other sources of waste and loss.

 WIGL ENTER

The state banks have beenmade ,l,rible for membership in the T,, roJora Reserve Board, ac- .,rding to information received by State Bank Commission, John N Davis. Even yet, however, tbpre are rigid restrictions that viU keep the great majority of tbpm out. In cities of 5000 nOOulation, a minimum capital af 25,O00 is required to make the bank eligible; from 5000 to 5000, a capital stock of $50, 900; from 6,OO0 to 50,000 population, capital stock of $100, GOO; and exceeding 50,000, a capital of s2O,OOO. This will exclude all the small state banks. 1t IS be- lieved that under this ruling not more than twenty state banks and trust companies will be eligible to enter.
 In order to avoid duplication, .tbe board will exercise the broad Assertion vested in it by the Act in accepting examinations of state banks companies made by the state authorities, where ever these are satisfactory to the hoard and are found to be of the same standard of thoroughness as that of the national bank ex- amlners,
