LITTLE USE FOUND
FORFRENCH CAVALRY
BIZ ASSOCIATED PRESS.

French Front, Dec. Aust four
teen months have passed since French
cavalry has appeared on the battle
fields of the Franco German front as
mounted force. The last occasion
of their employment in their real
work was September %, 1915, when
single squadron of hussars crossed
the German lines in Champagne and
brought back some prisoners.
The French general staff, however,
has not permitted the splendid horsed
regiments composed of cuirassiers,
dragons, hussars and mounted
rifles) to remain idle. They take
their turn with the infantry regi-
ments in the trenches, where they
do exactly the same ardous duty as
the foot-soldiers for a period and
then return far behind the front to
exercise with their mounts.
Earlier in the war, when fighting
was severe on the User, the French
cavalry came into touch with the
Germans on several occasions and
generally with success. Trench war
fare along the continuous line reach
ing from the North Sea to the Swiss
frontier, with no flanks to turn, has
rendered their employment on horse
back impossible.
Extracts from German newspapers
describing the battle around Sally
Saillisel, on November 5 and 6 this
year, declare large bodies of French
cavalry and field artillery were mass
ed Immediately behind the front line
in the expectation that the German
/ positions were about to be pierced
and that they could then dash through
the breach. The Associated Press
/ correspondent was present during
tie whole of the fighting on those
| days and the only mounted men seen
anywhere near the field were mill
tary policemen directing the supply
columns and drivers of the horsed
transport wagons.
Even the German prisoners who
surrendered as result of the attacks
on Saillisel and the Saint Pierre Vaast
wood, were placed under the guarC
of infantrymen, for the ground IL

BALLOON FLIGHT
IS SUCCESSFUL

The free balloon which was released
at the aeronautic station yesterday
afternoon at $3.50 landed about five
o'clock two miles beyond the Gull
Point road. The flight was satisfac-
tory in every respect and the landing
was safe.
Instead of being upder the super
vision of Lieutenant Commander F. R.
McCreary, as is usually the case, the
flight was made by Captain Geiger,
Lieut.. Paunack and Lieut.. Masok. The
craft was blown northeast by a gentle
southwesterly breeze, and the whole
flight was made at a very low alti-

lies ACIDS IN STOMACH AND
STARTS DIGESTION.
STOPS ANY SoURNESS, HEART
BURN, OR FOOD RISING IN A
FEW MOMENTS.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue sufferer from in
dyspepsia or out-of-order
stomach is merely matter of how
soon you begin taking some Diapep-
sin.
If your stomach is lacking in diges-
tive power, why not help the stomach
to do its work, not with drastic drugs,
but a reinforcement of digestive
agents, such as are naturally at work
in the stomach.
People with weak stonlachs should
take a little Diapepsin occasionally,
and there will be no more indigestion,
no feeling like 9 lump of lead in the
stomach, no heartburn, sour risings,
gas on stomach or belching of undi-
gested food, headaches, dizziness or
sick stomach, and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. Ali these
symptoms resulting from a sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved five minutes after
taking a little Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a So
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin now, and
you viii always go to the table with a
hearty appetite, and what you eat will
taste good, because your stomach and
intestines will be clean ard fresh,
and you viii know there are not going
to be any more had nights and mis-
cradle days for you. They freshen you
and make you feel like life is worth

REFRIGERATOR CAR SHORTAGE
Department of Agriculture Coop crates to Prevent.

Washington, May 2.-The serious car shortage throughout the country is beginning to be felt by shippers and distributors of early fruits and vegetables. In the various confer ences between the interstate com merce commission, railroad officials, and shippers, the latter have been represented, for the most part, by shippers of nonperishable commodi- ties.
 A Southern road, confronted with an extraordinary heavy tonnage of perishable commodities, finds, at the opening of the season, nearly half it's refrigerator equipment on other lines, and is unable to get the cars home. This is typical of other sections, and there is great danger that the inter- ests of users of refrigerator cars may be sacrificed to the necessities of other shippers.
 A year ago the department of agri- culture in a bulletin for farmers and shippers of perishable farm products called attention to the importance of prompt loading and unloading of cars, and to the economic waste involved in a misuse of cars. As the departments marketing work progresses, the inn portance of this phase of transporta- tion service becomes more apparent. In response to appeals from shippers,

 How Girls Are Made Proficient.

A display of twenty pieces of sew ing, the handiwork of the girls of the household arts department of the Pine Bluff High school, is being shown in one of the big windows of McEwen's, in Main street, and is at- tracting much attention and praise.
 The department is in charge of Miss Irene Bassett, and the articles shown demonstrate eloquently the manner in which Pine Bluff girls are, being taught to be proficient in sewing. All the work was done by girls of the local high school. Two graduation dresses have attracted particular praise, having been made by the graduates themselves. All the gradu- ates are making their own dresses, these being the only two finished so early One of them, by Miss Pauline Rennitt, actually cost $1.15, while the other, by Blanche Blackburn, cost $4.75. The display will be continued until after Sunday.
