LIGHT.

This article has no reference
to Newberry's electical light, but
to Light with a capital L.
What dreadful thing to live
in the world without light! The
man who is blind is under a
fearful handicap. Some men,
manage by indomitable will pow
er to overcome to a large degree
this handicap and to make their
lives worth living in spite of
this afliction; to most persons,
though, who are so afflicted life
is indeed dark and dreary- a
horrible burden.
Men love light; that is, men
whose purposes are light. There
are men who 'love darkness
rather than light because their
deeds are evil" They are the ex-
ceptions, and in many cases
their deeds are evil because they
have been excluded from the
light, or the light has been ex-
cluded from them. The normal
man, the normal child especial
ly, wants light. He wants the
windows open when he is in the
house to let the sunshine in. He
refers the outdoors because it
is light out there. The person
who spends his days in dark
room grows morose and des-
pondent. If one is kept long
time in the darkness he loses
the use of his eyes and becomes
blind, like the fishes in the Nam
moth cave that have no eyes at |
all.
Better than physical light is
intellectual light-in the same
proportion as the mind is great
er than the body. The body lasts
only a few years the mind lasts
forever. Sometimes men have to
be confined in dark cells for
some crime committed; this is
punishment. Sometimes children
are doomed to darkness of mind
not for punishment, for they
have done nothing to be punish
ed for; but there are people in
authority who think one way to
punish man is to punish his
children. The state just now is
pretty evenly divided between
those who think that way and
those who do not believe even
father rhas the right to keep
his child in the darkness.
Then there is a higher light
still; that which the preachers
tell about and the church stands
for. That light is no more endur-
ing than intellectual light, for as
long as the soul lives the mind
will live also. but it is incom-
parably superior and more to
be desired.
Let there be light"-phy-
sical, intellectual, spiritual.
Open the doors wide and let 4
the light in until daylight is ev-
erywhere-in the hovel as well
is the palace, in every nook and
corner where human beings

THIRD HIGHEST STAGE POTEAU AND ARKANSAS RIV- FRS COVER WIDE AREA AT
 FORT SMITH.

Fort Smith, Jan. 31.-The Arkan-
 sas river Sunday equalled the stage of 1908, when the stream touched 327
 feet. This stage is the third highest
 in the 33 years history of the govern
 ment weather bureau here In the past "A hours the river, which is still
 rising, rose two feet and one inch. In
 the same period 1.07 inches of rain fell.
 More than score of residents were taken off Arbuckle Island after
 being marooned since Friday. The island is in the northern part of this county and lies about six miles south of Alma, Crawford county. Many alarming reports were received today from that section, but they proved CT roneous.
 At Mulberry, in Crawford county,
 the river is three miles wide Flood
 water has reached the Iron Mountain
 railroad tracks in the city. More
 than 75 people reside in the flooded
 bottoms, and all day long boats have
 been engaged in resucing them. It
 was stated by members of the rescu-
 ing party that all persons would be
 removed to safety.
 In the Lees Creek Valley, in Craw- ford county, immense damage has
 been done to farms by the flood water
 towering the land with sand and gravel. This stream is now many
 miles wide, and several hundred
 acres of the bast farming land in Crawford county is under water. The
 water plant at Van Buren is still in- undated. The water is turned on at three intervals of one hour each dur ing the day.
 Back water coming up the Poteau river from the Arkansas river flooded the pumping station of the Fort Smith waterworks Sunday and drown- the fires in the power plant. Pump ing has suspended, but a sufficient quantity of water is on hand to last the city for several days. Telegraph and telephone service out of Fort Smith is demoralized. Lines that in normal times stand five miles from any stream have been i foated away. The Poteau and Ar kansas river at this point have food ed bottom land until it looks like the combined streams are nearly 10 miles wide. In Fort Smith the flood has reached the furniture factories along
 the Arkansas river.
 | Previous to 1908 the high water
 marks for Fort Smith are 33.3 feet on June 2, 1904, and 35 feet in May, t189S.

CENTRAL TEACHERS TO

MISSES SURMANN AND CONGER APPEAR IN CIVIC CLUB
 BENEFIT.

On Monday evening, February 7 the School and Civic Club will pre- sent Miss Allie Merle Conger ,pian. ist, and Miss Freda Surmann, violin. ist, in an artist recital, to be given ir the Central College auditorium
 Misses Conger and Surmann are en- gagged for a numDer of concerts to be given in several tours in the state during February and March, the first one to be given in Conway
 Miss Surmann is violinist of un- usual talent. The full, rich tone col bring which she brings from her vio- lin, her splendid execution and inter- pretation proclaim her real artist Miss Conger needs no introduction to Conway people. Her playing is al ways received with enthusiasm by those who have once heard her play She plays with finished technique and decidedly individual interpretation. She has recently returned from New York, where she spent several months in study with Alexander Lambert.
 Those appreciative of good music and those interested in the progress and financial success of the School and Civic Club should endeavor to bring a large audience to this concert. The admission will be 50 cents.

cal to use, for the reason that one bottle (50 cents worth makes full pint CPS teaspoonfuls) of the most excellent cough medicine, after being mixed at home with one pint of gran ulated sugar and one-half pint of wa ter. One bottle will probably, there fore, be sufficient for a whole fami- ly's supply the entire winter, while the same quantity of the old, ordi- nary, ready-made kinds of medicine would cost between $2 and $3. It is prepared from strictly harmless plants, contains absolutely no chlo- roform, opium, morphine or any oth- narcotic or injurious drugs as do most fedicines and it can therefore be given to children with perfect safety. It is pleasant to take and children are fond of it. Absolutely no risk whatever is run in buying this reme- dy under the above positive guaran- tee. R. J. Schiffmann, Prop, St. Paul Mlnn. (adv)
