SICK HEADACHE

Thousands of women suffer miser-
ably from periodic attacks of head
ache, never dreaming that perma.
nent cure may be had. Headache
nearly always results from some dis
order of the stomach, liver or bowels.
Take Chamberlain Tablets. They
will correct these disorders and there
will be no more headache Many
have been permanently cured by

congress March 4, 1913, a site was acquired at a cost of $2,000.
 "It is estimated that a two-story building with ground area of 4,400 square feet will be required, and that the cost of such a structure will be $55,OOO.
 'l wish to state right here, MT. Chairman, that while the census of 1910 shows population of 2,794 I am thoroughly of the opinion that the present population is between $500 and 4,500.
 "In regard to the site 1 wish to say that it is an entire square, located right in the heart of this growing and most progressive city. In all respects the people of Conway and Faulkner county measure up to the highest standard. They are progressive, lib- eral, and enterprising. "Mr. Bruckner. What did the gov ernment pay for the site?
 "Mr. Jacoway. The site is worth at least, in my judgment, between $6,0O0 and $8,00O, but out of a spirit of generosity, Mrs. Charles Frauen- thai, who owned the site, agreed to take $2,000 for it. "Mr. Bruckner. How large is the site?
 "Mr. Jacoway. Three hundred feet square, as l now recall. It is separate from other buildings, and if govern ment building were placed there it would be an ornament to this city.
 "Mr. Sumner. What is the popu- lation of Conway? "Mr. Jacoway. As stated before, l think it is between $500 and 4,5OO. l wish to read to the committee this morning letters from a number of representative citizens of Conway who are deeply interested in securing an adequate building for postoffice pur- poses.
 MT Summers. Certainly"

Korean Etiquette.

A recent Washington dispatch de-
clares that a good many changes have
taken place in Korean manners and
etiquette since the Japanese came into
control. A girls high school was es-
tablished at Seoul in 1908, and the
girls who were admitted, fifty-four in
number, were the daughters Of noble
men. The teachers were women at
first, but as the needs of the school
grew and became more exacting a few
male instructors were appointed. The
community in general. and the pupils
parents in particular, were enraged,
alleging that it was an objectionable
offense for men to enter the gate of a
girls school, even if they were teach
ers.
The school authorities, therefore,
made a concession that the male
teachers should veil their faces when
they passed the gate of the school. 1t
is an absurd evasion, but the students
parents were satisfied with it. Some
of the girls are attended by two or
three chaperons, or maids, even when
at their studies.-Youth's Companion.

A MANS CHOICE

Each successive telephone message
had spelled increasing disaster. At

not even be a settlement. The crash
had swept his entire fortune away.
Everything was gone. He. the famous

his adversaries before him by sheer

He opened his eyes, to see himself
looking into the face of girl of about
twenty years. Dark hair, bound back
with a fillet of colored cloth, daz-
cling skin, milk-white at the throat,
but tanned by the sun above the chin
Garments of woven fiber and bare feet
in sandals. And, in her eyes, divine
compassion that he had never seen
before on any face except his mothers.
Slowly consciousness returned to
him. He remembered his hardships

to run for days before it; then the
grounding on the shores of the un-

the faces of the foreign sailors, bit
they saw in him nothing but Pitcairn
Islander. His clothes had long since
gone to rags, and, wearing the gar

spoke like one of the inhabitants.
Doris watched him with sinking

then, weeping, she fled into the woods.
If he wanted to go, there should be
no grief at parting, no struggle on her
part to retain him.
The sight of the crew, the air of
civilization about the trim ship, infect
