OPPORTUNITY FOR VALUABLE
 ADVERTISING.

Efforts are being msde by the Ar kansas Press association and com lnercial bodies of the state to have the National Editoria association holds it's convention in Hot Springs in 1918. It is to be hoped that suc- cess will attend the efforts. For it would be impossible to purchase the favorable publicity the state will re- ceive should the editors of the nation visit the country's greatest health re- sort, and see for thems elves some ,f the resources of the state, as well as the development taking place.
 By her progress in the last few years, Arkansas has attracted nation wide attention, but there is yet neces sity for work to place Arkansas III the proper light before the entire country. No better plan could be de- vised than to bring ite makers os publicity to the state.
 Let the editors of the nation onca become convinced that Arkansas Is really all we say it is, and the CO., ums of descriptive matter that will be published in all parts of this coun- try will send to this state home seekers, manufacturers, investors n such number that growth and de :.
 velopment will be remarkable.
 Arkansas could afford to pay $50, 900 for the convention of the Nationa Editorial association, and the none, would be well invested. But it will not cost that much, and the oppor tunity is one too promising to ignore
 While Hot Springs would obta.It the greatest direct be'efit from tn, convention, every section of the stat would profit. And this is especiall, SO, if the communities in the sta'' will work together to the end tha the "moulders of public opinion" ma be given opportunity to view tn products, possibilities and promise 9 every section.
 Pine Bluff will doubtless be anon; the far-sighted and progressive citie to co-operate in the movement t bring the editors of the country L Arkansas in 1918.

A CHILD DOESN'T LAUGH AND PLAY
 IF C0NSTIPATED
If Peevish, Feverish and Sick, Give California Syrup
 of Figs."

Mother! Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign it's little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, gen tie liver and bowel cleansing should al- ways be the first treatment given.
 Nothing equals California Syrup of Figs" for children's ills; give a tea spoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is sclogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have a we'll and playful child again. All children love this harmless, delicious "fruit laxative" and it never fails to effect good "inside" cleansing. Di- rections for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups are plainly on the bottle.
 Keep it handy in your home. A lit tie given today saves sick child to- morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for 5O-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs" then look and see that it is made by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Company."-Adv.

MAINTAINING THE CEMETERY.

The proposal to impose tax of $2 per year on each lot in Bellwood cemetery for the purpose of raising funds for beautifying and properly maintaining the city's burial ground appears to have met with general ap- proval, as was to be expected.
 It is entirely proper that the duty of keeping up the lots should be III the hands of body that will continue in existence as long as there is Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and the council is the best organization to which 10 delegate this duty. The Cemeter7 association and the people generalli may be depended upon to insist thar the funds be expended properly, if in time to come, there should be q disposition to neglect the work.
 Many owners of lots in the celne. tery now spend more than $2 year in the effort to keep the burial places of loved ones free of weeds, while others welcome the plan to have the city take charge of the undertaking.
 Adoption of Alderman Means ordi- nance insures that the cemetery will be improved, and that all graves will be kept as they should for all time, no matter what happens to owners of lots.

ture out of ones hand or cranium, and paying ten cents fJ, the informa- tion, is just as reliable. However, so the horoscopers hava it, the kaiser is "set right" They tell us he was born when Mars, the god of war, was in midheaven, posi- ton supposed to insure victory. Whel the kaiser was 12 years old, we are told, Jupiter had passed once around the earth, and the rulers possessions were increased by the confederation of all German states and the election of his grandfather as emperor. The horoscopers tell us, therefore, that every 12 years the kaiser can expect an increase of estate. And the stars say that the next increase will be ill 1918, when he may become head cf another federation. Though the stars say the kaiser will have strenuous days in 1917, he will get his rewarl in 1918. the horoscopers assert.
 So there you have it. They haze spoken! Knowing what they ha 7e said will whet our inter est as to the efficacy of horoscopinG.
