Mr.. Fields sense of humor is
very keen edged, and, oh! what an
entertaining teller of stories he is!

on Broadway in "Step This Way
but is planning a new production
for the fall and winter seasons.

LITTLE ROCK CELEBRATES
Monster Street Parade Follows Vic.
 tory of President Wilson.

Little Rock.-Several thousand Lit tie Rock Democrats celebrated the re- election of President Wilson with a monster street parade. Jos. w. House, Jr., chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee; c. c. Kavanaugh, chairman of the Pulaski County Dem ocratic Central Committee. with state, county and city officials, led the pa rade. During the day Chairman House issued the following address:
 ''As chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee. I want to urge the people of Little Rock and citizens of the entire state, to form and march to celebrate the greatest victory that has been won since the foundation of our government. It was the West and the South pitted in this great struggle against the East, and the story has been told-the re-elec- tion of President Wilson. It was not known until Thursday night at II o'clock definitely that we had carried California. History will show in times to come that MT. Wilson is one of the greatest men that ever lived. and it will further show that he has done more for the American people in less time than any man that has occupied the White House.

Drinking Of Water
(BY V. N. PIERCE, N. DJ

The general conclusions of the latest Medical Scientists proves that drink ing plenty of pure water both between meals and with ones meals is bens. ficlal to health. It has now been prov en by means of the X-rays and actual tests upon many healthy young men that the drinking of large amounts of water Utth n,e0Is is often beneficial. Therefore if you want to keep healthy drink plenty of pure water (not ice water), both with your meals and be- tween meals. If you ever suffer from backache, lumbago. rheumatism, or any of the symptoms of kidney trouble such as deep colored urine, sediment In urine, getting out of bed at night fre- quently and other troublesome effects, take . little Anuric before meals. These Anuric Tablets can be obtained at almost any drug store.

GAVE HIS WIFE A SURPRISE
casion, Was Taken by Spouse for Bold Burglar.

A member of the degree team of the Columbus lodge of Eagles was getting himself ready to go to Greensburg, where the Columbus team was to give the work to class of candidates, re- lates the Indianapolis News. Each member of the Columbus team was to wear Q dress suit. This member did not have any evening clothes, so he borrowed an outfit. including a boiled shirt, high collar and white tie. He got home rather late and found his wife in bed, asleep. He wished to try the thing on to see just how he looked So, after dint of much nervous expen- allure, he had everything in shape and rather admired himself in the mirror He felt 1t was a shame for his wife to miss the great sight, so he went into the bedroom, shook her gently and waited for her to awaken. The woman opened her eyes and looked into the face of strange man attored in fash ionable evening clothes. She gave one scream and tucked under the cover.
 Go away. go away she begged the supposed gentleman burglar, i've haven't any money"
 Nobody knows that any better than do," her husband retorted. but that's no reason why you should carry on like this.'
 Then she recognized his voice, came from under the covers and admired him to his hearts content.

ARKANSAS RETURNS
 STILL INCOMPLETE
EXPECT VOTE WILL BE HEAV- TEST IN HISTORY OF STATE-
 15o,OO0 IS ESTIMATE.
AMENDMENT 14 IS IN DOUBT
Has . Majority But Not Enough To Insure lts Passa0e-Repubii- cans Gain in the
 Legislature.

Official returns from 52 of the 75 counties still left in doubt whether Amendment No. 14. the good roads amendment, will be adopted. The vote in the 52 counties for the amend ment was 56,295 and against 1t 46.S19. While it is practically certain that the measure will receive . majority of the whether 1t will receive Q majority of the total vote cast. The total vote cast in the 52 counties for governor was 115,S34. The vote for Amendment No. IA was 1923 less than & majority of this.-
 It is evident that the total vote was more than 15O,OO0. the largest ever cast in the state. Even should it reach 160,O0O the vote already account ed for in the g counties will be suffi- cient to adopt Act No. 1, the primary law, and Amendment No. 12. the school amendment. So far Act No. l has S2,625 votes and Amendment No. 11, S4,162.
 
 1, the primary election law. and Amendment No. 12. the school amend ment, were assured of adoption, and 1t was certain that Act No. ?. the local option measure. will be defeated by practically a twoto-one vote. The vote showed that Amendment No. 13. the initiative and referendum. will not be adopted.
 Returns from the interior of the state from Tuesdays election indi- cate taat the Republicans will have six or seven members in the next Leg islature. It is practically settled that i've Democratic nominees were de- feated, with prospects of Republicans winning in two or three more coun- ties. Judge o. H. Sumpter was de- feated by Houston EmmOry. a former Republican. who ran as an independ- ent candidate. The last Legislature contained only three Republicans. who occupied seats in the lower house. They all hailed from the remote noun tain regions of North Arkansas. It Is estimated that about 150.000 votes were cast in the election, and Dr. Brough's majority for governor will be over 50.000. The Republican vote fell of in all the larger counties in the state. The negroes in Little Rock and the black belt of Pulaski County refused to support the Republican nominee for governor because the leaders denied them admission to their ward and precinct primaries or meet ings. This condition also prevailed in . number of counties where the negroes usually poll large vote.
