Worlds Largest
"Water Wagon"

In line with the budget re-
port which emphasized the be-
neficial results of empire-wide
prohibition, the Russian Duma
has passed a bill making it
the permanent national policy.
The measure prohibits the
manufacture and sale of any
beverage containing more than
~ per cent of alcohol. This
bars beer and light wines. 1t is
sure to pass the upper house
and to receive the approval Of
the Gar, upon whose initia-
tive the prohibition of vodka
became at the beginning of the
war part OF the governments
preparedness program.
'Under the difficult condi-
tions of war time" says M.
Bark, minister of finance, 1--WE

TRY IT! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts your liver without making
you sick and can not
salivate.

Every druggist in town-your drug
gist and everybody's druggist has noticed
a great fallingoff in the sale of calomel
They all give the same reason. Dodson's
Liver Tone is taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people know
it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly
safe and gives better results." said a
prominent local druggist. Dodson's
Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by
every druggist who sells it. A large
bottle costs so cents, and if it fails to
give easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishness and constipation, you have
only to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone Is a pleasant. tast-
ing, purely vegetable remedy, harmless
to both children and adults. Take a
spoonful at night and wake up feeling
fine; no biliousness, sick headache, acid
stomach or constipeted bowels. It
doesn't grippe or cause inconvenience all
the next day like violent calomel. Take
a dose OF calomel today and tomorrow
You will feel weak, sick and nauseated.
Don't lose days work. Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full of
vigor and ambition.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
in ARKANSAS TOWNS
State Is Making Greater Strides
In Substantial improvements
Than Ever Before

Arkansas is taking greater
strides in civic improvements
than ever before, along the
lines of installing waterworks
which usually entail sewer sy-
stems and improved fire de-
partments.
Records of the engineering
department of the Arkansas
Actuarial Bureau bear out this
statement. In the past year the
Bureau has been called on to
inspect and criticise plans and
specifications for waterworks
in Benton, Rector, Harrison,
Heber Springs and Ashdown,
which towns are installing, or
have completed waterworks,
while plans are under way for
similar improvements at Hart
ford, Pocahontas, Malvern,
Springdale, Eudora, Nashville,
Star City, Beebe, Piggott, Hat
field, Corning, McCrory, juno
ton City, Walnut Ridge, Port
land and Wilmot. Improve
ments of the present plants are
contemplated at Bentonville,
Dardanelle, Stuttgart, Arkan-
sas City, Conway, Morrilton
and Mariana.
These improvements will
save the people thousands of
dollars annually in insurance
premiums and cut down the
fire loss. to say nothing of the
saving that will be effected in
life and health through the |
sanitary benefits. The indica-
tions are that Arkansas will
see even greater progress along |
these lines within the next few |
months.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
MAKING CHEAP PORK

Next fall we will receive
many letters asking for infor-
nation as to what to feed with
corn to fatten hogs. Now is the
time to answer that question,
for now is the time for making
plans for solving the problem.
There is nothing better than
peanuts and soy beans, or vel
vet beans in the lower south.
This is the time to prepare for
these crops. Get the seed ready
and when the oats or wheat
field is cleared put out lib
eral acreage of one or all of
these crops. If more is grown
than the hogs can consume,
harvest some for feeding the
hogs next winter, and if still
more is grown there is nothing
better FIR the land and no more
economical way of increasing
crop yields or fertilizing next
years crop than to turn under
a crop Of these rcgumes. Even
coWpeas make good hog feed,
althugh they yield less, and
since the seed is cheap there
sould be no lack of feed for
the hogs next fall.-Progres-
sive Farmer.

PRESTON REPUBLICANF
PLEASED WITH HTCHES
And Fairbanks and Coburn
Says They Will Receive
Democratic Votes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August .
"The Republican voters in my section
OF the state" said S. l. Cobun, of
Preston county, at the Raleigh hotel
Tuesday, ARE contented with our ma
tional candidate and pleased with his
speech Of acceptance, Hughes and
Fairbanks will get the party vote as a
whole in my section and, from my
W observations and what l have
been told, they will receive quite a
number Of Democratic votes scattered
throughout the counties with whose
sentiment on affairs political | am
somewhat c%onversant."
Mr.. Cobun, who served as a member
of the House Of Delegates, is this year
a candidate for state senator in the
Preston district. AS a testimonial OF
his standing with the people with
whom he lives and does business, it
need only be stated that the Demo-
cratic party did not nominate a can
didate to oppose him. Therefore, he
is as good as elected right now, and
isn't sitting up nights worrying over
that.
THE soreness growing out Of the
rather too vehement struggle over the
gubernatorial nomination is fast dis
appearing" continued Mr.. Cobun.
THAT is the only thing in the situation
which need have worried anybody,
and that is rapidly disappearing get
ting better every day in fact. In every
other respect the party was in good
shape and is today. Congressman
George NJ. Bowers, o that the peo-
ple Of the district have had a chance
to see him in action and to know him,
is stronger than his party in the dis
trict as a whole, and there isn't the
faintest chance Of the Second getting
away from him and slipping back into
the Democratic column. Not a chance.
AS the so%lidlfying and reunion OF the
party as a result OF General Lilly's
magnanimous election grows brighter,
/ do not have a doubt but what he will
receive the full party vote, as all other
candidates will. 1t looks like a big
Republican year in West Virginia, and
the strength OF Hughes and Fairbanks
with our people will help the lesser
candidates immensely"

INSPECTORS
Wearing Health Badges Now
Almost EnCirCIe State OF
Pennsylvania.

PHILADELPHIA, August 9,-Many
inspectors wearing the badge OF the
state department OF health stationed
themselves at railroad stations, fer
ries and boat landings along the Del
aware river to bar all children under
Is years old who attempted to cross
into the state without certificates OF
health.
AT the same time 1000 other in
spectors went on duty in border
counties, almost encircling the state
with a ring of guards. Thus the de
partment of health took measures to
prevent an epidemic Of infantile
paralysis.
The guards have authority to
board railroad trains at the border,
The result of this vigilance was the
turning back at the ferries of goo
boys and girls who live in Camden
N. j., and work in Philadelphia
across the Delaware river. All were
required to produce health certili-

argue that the German submarine

According to these reports the cargo
viii consist Of nickel and rubber,
which are being brought to town in

Marine observers who pickcted

glasses pointed north by northeast.
They figure that il the Bremen was

ought to turn Cape Anne Tuesday after
noon. 1t could hug the coast from
Cross island down and have all the

why it should continue submerged
