 PETITION IS READY MILE MORE OF PAVING
Is Contemplated in Improvement Dis- trict to be Formed by Conway
 City Council.

Another paving district-the sixth for Conway-will be organized by the Conway city council tonight. The first petition for the district, which contemplates the improvement of one mile of streets in the western portion of the city, has been drafted and the requisite signatures of 10 or more property will be secured in time for the presentation of the peti- tion to the council tonight.
 The streets proposed to be paved m the new district are as follows West on College avenue from Center street to Western avenue tone block west of Donaghey avenue); north on Western avenue to Robinson avenue: i: east on Robinson avenue to Donaghey avenue; north on Donaghey avenue to Caldwell street. This district will form a loop which will connect pay ing district No. 4 with No. 8.
 It IS said that a large majority of the property owners in the district favor the improvement and there will be no difficulty in securing the nec- essary majority in property valuation to the second petition. Those pro- noting the project hope to have the second petition ready for presenta- tion at the first meeting of the city council in July and to proceed at once with the paving, so that it can be completed by early fall.

GLASS OF WATER
BEFORE YOU EAT
ANY BREAKFAST
Wash poison from system each
morning and feel fresh
as a daisy.

Every day you clean the house you
live in to get rid of the dust and
dirt which collected through the pre-
vious day. Your body, the house
your soul lives in, also becomes filled
up each twenty-four hours with all
manner of filth and poison. If only
every man and woman could realize
the wonders of drinking phosphated
hot water, what gratifying change
would take place.
Instead of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic- looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead Of the multitudes of
nerve wrecks" rundowns," brain
fags" and pessimists we should see
virile optimistic throng of rosy
checked people everywhere.
Everyone, whether sick or well,
should drink each morning before
breakfast, a glass of real hot water

phate in it to wash from the stomach.

the entire alimentary canal before

Those subject to sick headache,
biliousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who
have a pallid, sallow complexion and
who are constipated very often, are
urged to obtain quarter pound of
limestone phosphate at the drugstore
which will cost but n trifle but is suf-
ficient to demonstrate the quick and
remarkable change in both health and
appearance awaiting those who prac-
tce internal sanitation. We must
remember that inside cleanliness is
more important than outside, because
the skin does not absorb impurities
to contaminate the blood, while the
pores in the thirty feet of bowels do.

taken the matter very much to heart.

having England recede from it's posi-
ton without qualification or condi-

ing the matter strictly from the AM

erioan point of view and with the
ability, force and firmness of which
he is capable, we are entirely salts
fled to await the solution of the diff
ficulty at the Presidents hands and

PRESIDENT WILL

at the capitol.
In order, however, to obviate the
raising of any question as to what
person is exercising the functions of
Chief Executive on Sunday, March 4,
1917, Secretary Lansing will advise
President Wilson to take the oath for
a second term as President on that
day. The oath will be readministered
to Mr.. Wilson on Monday.
The ruling of the State Department
disposes of the theory that the Secre-
tary of State will become acting Presi-
dent of the United State for the period
between midnight on Saturday, March
g, 1917, and noon of Monday, March
s. The search of the archives of the
State Department likewise brought to
light sufficient evidence to lay the
ghost of a tradition that Vice-Presi-
dent Daniel ID. Tompkins, of New
York, served as President of the Unit
ed States for the twenty-four hours
of Sunday, March 4, 1921, between tho
first and second terms of President
James Monroe.
On account of the interest mani
tested in the question as to who will
be President on Sunday, March 4,
1917. the State Department has pre-
pared a form letter to be sent to all
persons making inquiry on the SUBJ
ject The letter cites the Marshall op-
inion and also points out that Presi-
dent Hayes. who was elected for
