MOT Their! IS CH|LD's
STOMACH SOUR, SICK?
If cross, feverish, constipated, give
California Syrup of
Figs

Don't scold your fretful, peevish
child. See if tongue is coated; this
is sure sign it's little stomach, liv-
er and bowels are clogged with sour
waste.
When listless, pale, feverish, full
of cold, breath bad, throat sore,
doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally,
has stomach-ache, indigestion, diar-
rhoea, give a teaspoonful of Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs" and in few
hours all the foul waste, the sour
bile and fermenting food passes out
of the bowels and you have a well
and playful child again. Children
love this harmless fruit laxative, -
and mothers can rest easy after Civ
ing it, because it never fails to make
their little ''insides" clean and
sweet.
Keep it handy, Mother! A little
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row, but get the genuine. Ask your
druggist for 50-cent bottle of
California Syrup of Figs" which
has directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plain
ly on the bottle. Remember there
are counterfeits sold here, so surely
look and see that yours is made by
the "California Fig Syrup Company"
Hand back with contempt any other
fig syrup. (advt.)

LIQUOR MEN NOT
DOWN AND OUT
Barleycorn Advocates Will Seek to
Initiate Measure for Legal
izing Saloons.

Little Rock, March 13-Now
that the legislature has adjourned,
efforts will begin at once to repeal
the drastic statewide prohibition
bill passed during the early part of
the session. The liquor interests
will circulate petitions over the
state for signatures to have the
law referred to the voters of the
state under the initiative and ref
erendum amendment at the election
to be held in 1916. 1t will require
about 1900 signatures to succeed
on the movement.
The liquor people claim that the
provisions of the law prohibiting
the manufacture of native wine
and the part of the law making it
a felony to give away a drink will
cause thousands of votes to be cast
in favor of the repeal of the law.
The prohibition act takes effect in
January, 1916, which would neces-
state the closing of saloons at least
nine months before the voters could
pass upon the repeal of the meas
ure.

PRICE OF ARKANSAS
WARRANTS IS DOWN
Failure of Legislature to Provide
Means for Increasing Revenues
Causes Slump.

Little Rock, March 15.-Failure
of the legislature to properly guard
the states finances and provide for
the already large deficit caused
state warrants to sell at 80 cents
on the dollar Saturday with but lit
tie demand at any price. That the
warrants will be selling as low as
SO cents on the dollar by August
was the prediction of Little Rock
bankers as a result of Investigations
into the amount of money apprO-
priated and the failure Of the gov
ernor to provide a financial plan,
Warrants Saturday were quoted at
about so cents, with few transaC-
lions, whereas year ago they were
selling around 81, SO and SO cents.
One bank, which last year at this
time was carrying more than $780,
600 in state general revenue fund
warrants and creating market for
them, Saturday reported but $240,-
600 worth of state warrants on it's
hands. Future transactions in state
warrants will be confined to deal
ings with patrons of the bank who
were patrons before warrants depre-
ciated to such an extent, or in
funds where the depreciation is not
so evident.
Approximately $9,750,OOO was
appropriated by the Legislature for
general revenue expenses. The es-
timated receipts for the next two
years will be about 100000. An
item of about $4,000 for the
maintenance of the state penitenti-
airy can be eliminated from the
list, as the penitentiary is self-sup-
porting and can take care of it's ex-
penses. The approximate deficit
would be 100000.

LAD DANGEROUSLY
SHOT IN ABDOMEN
Robt. Bailey. Jr,, Son Of Postmas-
ter at Eydrick, Perhaps Fatally
Wounded by Brother
(From Fridays Daily Press)


Robt. Bailey, Jr, aged 16 years,
son of Postmaster Robt. Bailey of
Hydrick, a small station on the Iron
Mountain railroad south of Para
gould, was accidentally shot and
perhaps fatally wounded by his
brother Wednesday evening at six
thirty. The two boys were in
specting a 3S-caliber automatic
pistol and in some manner the
weapon was discharged The ball
struck Robt. Bailey, Jr., in the alb
domen, entering two inches below
and a little to the right of the
umbilicus, penetrating the intes-
tines and lodging in his back. The
wounded lad was brought to Para
gould Wednesday night and has
since been under the care of sur
geons and nurses at the local san
itarium. DR.. Paul Dickson says his
condition is most serious and that
recovery is extremely doubtful.
There are eleven perforations in
the intestines, and while the sur
geons have done all they could to
remove the lascerated portions of
the intestines and make new con-
nections, the wounds are so severe
and the operations so delicate that
complications will likely follow, re-
sulting in the death of the boy.

This bill was strongly urged by
Governor Hays, members OF the eX-
position commission appointed by
the governor and by many CONNER
cial bodies over the state. 1t pass
ed the senate by a tWo-thlrds ma
iority, President Lundy having
ruled this vote necessary because
it was a special appropriation. In
the house Speaker Sawyer ruled on
ly majority was necessary ana IL
passed that body by narrow mar
gin. Representative Belote ana
others who opposed the approprla-
ton sought to enjOin the auditor
from issuing warrants to the COM
misisoners, but the chancery court
of Pulaski county denied the appli-
cation for a restraining order An
appeal was Immediately taken to
the supreme court where it was ad-
vanced upon the docket. The de-
cision of that tribunal this morning
means that Arkansas will not Off
cially represented at the exposition
at San Francisco, unless individuals
and commercial organizations con-
tribute the necessary funds. A sub
stantial fund was raised by sub
scription during 1914 and with the
money in the banks of the com-aoi
money in the hands of the COM
mission a building was erected, but
no further progress toward install
ing an exhibit was made pending
the outcome of the movement to Sc
cure an appropriation from the gem
eral assembly.

WHY THE BOOSTER WINS.

The knocker is the person
Who's the sorriest of chumps:
He is blue and melancholy,
And he goes round in the dumps.
When the people see him coming
They walk round city block.
So they needn't stand and listen
To his stone-age fossil knock.
He's burden TO the country,
He is no good to himself,
And his victims shout thanksgiving
When he's laid upon the shelf.
The booster is the party
Who is hauling down the dough.
The folks are glad TO grasp his mitt
Wherever he may go.
He's the little ray OF sunshine,
He's the Johnny -the-spot,
And his talk is mighty welcome.
Though ii strains tho truth lot
There's a sort of bcnedlction
In his cheerful "Howdy-do,"
And he makes your life worth living
While he's round a-joshin' you.
