FREE BRIDGE WORK
 10 START Al ONCE
Structure Connecting Little Rock and Argenta to be Reconstructed and
 lnter-Urban Tracks Placed on It.

Little Rock, July -Reconstruc ton of the free bridge practically was assured yesterday at confer ence between representative of the county, the Main street property owners of the Intercity Terminal Railway Company, at the office of County Judge Joe Asher. All agreed as to their shares in the rebuilding of the bridge. 1t was decided to take up the preliminary work immediately.
 The agreement reached provides that the $300,000 which is the eSti- mated cost of the improvement, shall be paid equally by the county, the property owners in an improvement district to be formed, and the Inter city Terminal Railway and Pine Bluff and Eastern Traction Company. The two railway companies together will pay one-third, or $100,000 Should there he additional expense, it will be borne equally by the property owners, the county and the railways. The inn provement district will be organized immediately.
 Only 10 property owners in the proposed district are required to sign the first petitions for it's forma- tion. They are ready to sign, the committee said Notice of the peti- ton must be published for three months. After that a second petition, containing names representing a ma jority of the property in the district, may be filed with the county court. If the petition is approved, the dis trict would be formed and work im- mediately begun.
 The limits of the proposed district will be announced in a few days. It is said district may be organized at the Argenta end of the bridge This vii be taken up with the Argenta property owners next week.
 Representatives who attended the meeting yesterday were: Moorhead Wright, Alfred Kahn and J. M. Moore for the property owners; County Judge Asher, Prosecuting Attorney Nj. F. Dunaway and C. T. Cofman for the county and C. C. Kavanaugh and D. II. Cantrell for the railways.

Shakespeare's Mixed Population"

It is impossible to overestimate the influence on the view of government with which Shakespeare, without Puri- tanism, invigorated the Anglo-SaXon mind both in England and America in the direction of at least freest investi- gation of ecclesiastical principles and methods. American wOrldwideness, cosmopolitansm, or, if you please, that hospitality to all interests from any where and everywhere, which is char acteristic of the United States, has it's own method glorified in Shakespeare's intellectual procedure. Shakespeare's population is as mixed as our own. He had the American manner, with myriad-minded past, and the more varied and variable present." Shake speare and the American Spirit, Dr. Frank w. Gunsaulus, in National Mag azine.

The Oldest of Trees.

As to the ages of trees, it is not the oak which is, as Dryden, or another, has it, the patriarch" The oldest trees on earth are the tremendous con ifers standing in one of the Cali fornian valleys. Older than Abraham, they have rolled around with the world. alive, for many more centuries than any mere oak; and not long ago one of them fell. There he lies, and you climb his side by ladder. And the rest-or many of them-are in their last few centuries, as is evident from their dwindling tops.
 That is what surprises the tourist that having lived through human history they are now dying. They are now cared for, if things so strange and so august can be said to owe any thing to mans care; but man for hun dreds of decades gave them hard usage; their hollows are black with the fires ligh:ed within by Indian na- tions long anished.-London Chroni- cle.

FORCE IN THE COMMUNITY
Man With the Talent for Silence" Generally Recognized for Strong
 Parsonage He Is.

There is a gift of gab" and there Is a talent for silence" Everybody classifies somewhere under four head ings: Those who say nothing because they have nothing to say those who have nothing to say, but say 1t; those who have something to say and say it, and those who say nothing in spite of having something to say. The last named are rare, says a writer in the Boston Globe. It behooves those who have the gift of gab" to strive for the talent for silence" and those who have the talent for silence" 10 try to acquire some gift of gab."
 But better thousand gabblers than the silence of one cold, cunning man who encouraged ardent and generous people to do all the talking in order that he may conceal his cards while they show theirs. That silence is com mon among men whom authority and wealth have made crafty
 Character speaks language of it's own. The silent man does not need to speak in order to make himself heard. We "se9se" his opinions and dread his silent disapproval more than open reproaches. The man who can bear complaints without com blaming; who can take an earful of insult without retorting; who can en- dure misjudgment without a fit of the sulks-the man who keeps his Cl mt force in the community as he little dreams of being. It is not anything that he does; it is what he is.

NOTHING LOST BY COURTESY
May at Times Seem Small Thing, But 1t Has the Power of Ac-
 complishing Much.

Courtesy is like oil upon troubled waters. There is an inevitable amount of friction in everyday life. Courtesy reduces this friction to a minimum The happy outcome of a days work may easily be determined by cheery Good morning" at it's beginning. A Knitted brow and a grudging greeting may be harbingers of failure in the days work.
 In the elevator, at the telephone, at the bench and in the office-at every point of contact between man and man-a little thought for the feelings of others Is a pleasant lubricant in the joints of life. It reduces the jar of the human machinery, promotes good feel ing, adds to the worlds stock of self respect.
 It is better to request than to com mand, better to smile than to frown, better to help than to hinder even in the smallest things. A courteous man and a courteous woman furnish the salt that makes life palatable to the soul.
 Our common allotment of happiness, of contentment, of the joy of living is all too small. By robbing those about us of their share we rob ourselves in the long run. Let us add to that share instead of detract from it. Let us respect scrupulously the small rights of others; regard for the big rights will then become a matter of habit.
