So the natural result was a constitution with many restrictions upon the exercise of governmental power by the various instrumentalities of govern ment
 q believe there men in Arkansas to- day able enough and patriotic enough to write a constitution embodying all the good portions of the old constitution and incor- perating other provisions needful and appro- priate to existing conditions. which would be honor to the framers and blessed boon to posterity.
 .'I therefore respectfully recommend to the general assembly the passage of an act or a joint resolution authorizing the calling of constitutional convention, either next summer or during the spring of 1918. pro- yiding for its submission to tNe people for re tification or rejection, fixing representa- tion. the qualifications and compensation of members.
 Conclusion.
 "Gentlemen of the assembly, have pre- sented to you in very imperfect way my views on some of the important problems which are now clamoring for solution in Ark I have resorted to no subterfuge, evasion mental reservation, believing that tho people of Arkansas in this crisis in our  history expect clean. honorable methods to be pursued. without resort to political in- trigue, big sticks and midnight caucuses. Knowing you personally have an abiding faith in your patriotism and sense of fair ness and whether agree or disagree on public questions, I feel that your governor 1 will receive fair and honorable treatment at your hands and that our asso- citation will be both pleasant and profitable.
 "Arkansas expects much of us for there is much to be done. Wearing our con- sciences as our kings and clad in the armor ot truth and civic righteousness, let en- ter upon the duties of our high offices with clearness of purpose, vigor of action and honesty of conviction. Then when de- Alterations shall have ended not only in this beautiful capitol, which will stand through the years as enduring monument to the ajesty of our great and growing common wealth, but in the legislative hall of life, we will be permitted entrance into the great legislative hall above, that house not built with hands. eternal in the heav- ens.'"

ChinchiIIa May Recc ne Extinct.

Of all the furs found in and ex ported from South America, chin. chilla is the finest and most valuable. It has gained in popularity to such an extent that there is grave danger Of the chinchilla following the Arctic seal almost to extinction. The Geo graphical Review says it is hunted in the Cordilleras of Bolivia and north ern Chile, but has already vanished from the provinces of Antofagasta and Africa, where it was formerly plentiful. Skins that were worth s10 in Chile in 1908 brought s3O in 1912
 The chinchilla is hunted by Indians with dogs and ferrets that are trained to enter the burrows. This involves destruction of the young. A move ment to prohibit the killing of chin chillas or the sale of their. fur is on foot in Chile, and some men have gone into the business of breeding the ani mals on large scale.

VALUE OF COMPRESSED AIR
In Jets and Sprays 1t Has Wide Ap- pIicaton in Factories in the
 United States.

"A jet of water is capable of cooling or cleaning, but it's action is limited to materials which will not be injured by moisture, and it requires provisions for drainage. Air, on the other hand, will clean steel with equal facility. A steam jet, too, can accomplish many things by direct action, but who wants to work around one? Air is obvious ly in class by itself for such pur- poses, says writer in Factory. In at least one machine shop air jets are employed on cutting tools, in lieu of oil or soda water, to keep both tool and work cool.
 Air, again, in German factory, has been found to solve the problem of graduated hardening of steel By care fully spacing the nozzles the degree of hardening may be graded quite ac- curately.
 For reaching dirt and dust in tho hidden recesses of machines and prod uct, nothing equals blast of air from a well-directed nozzle. Vacuum clean CTS are all right for flat surfaces, and hence excellent for floors, tables and benches, but it takes jet with plenty of pressure behind it to remove oily particles and negotiate the irregulari- ties of motors and machines. Dyna- mos and motors for best results and safety against fire, must be kept clean. How to dislodge and remove the par ticleS which collect on the cores and windings was a knotty problem un- til the air jet was tried.
 Textile mills, too, have of late adopt ed air cleaning very generally. In no industry is the cleaning problem of greater moment. Lint generally is heavy from the fact that the at mosphere of textile rooms is, or always should be, somewhat humid. Hence, if blown downward, the lint gravl- tates directly to the floor. Many ma chimes can be cleaned, while in mo- tion, thus greatly increasing the out. put efficiency
 Air jets will do the work of brushes. as in raising the nap on certain heavy fabrics and putting the finish on silk ribbons or of buf1ing wheels as in pol ishing metal. In one plant an invisi- ble screen is thus formed across a door opening, which must be kept un- obstructed, to keep out flies. Men can easily pass, but winged insects might as well try to get through a steel plate.

Gently cleanse your liver and sluggish bowels while

 Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi- ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath-always trace them to torpid liver; delayed, fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
 Poisonous matter clogged in the in- testines, instead of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con- gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick ening headache.
 Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels.

Neutrality Has Proven
Costly for Switzerland

| Correspondence of The Associated Press)
Berne, Switzerland, April p
Switzerland's extraordinary expenses
that have grown out Of the war will
amount. by the end of this year, to
about 700,000,000 francs, it is esti-
mated. That figure, however, covers
only the cost of maintaining Swiss
neutrality, guarding the boundaries,
etc. There must be raised in add-
ton from 100000 to 100000
francs annually to pay the interest on
other debts. In all it is reckoned
that for interest charges and sinking
funds the state is going to have to
produce an even l00,000,000 francs
above what it ordinarily raises. Thus
lar only about one-third of this sum
has been assured. The tobacco mo-
nopoly proposed by the Bundesrat
is but one of number of measures
that will be necessary in the imme-
date future. And the monopoly
proposition is already meeting with
strong opposition.
Though Berne has the reputation of
being less expensive residence city
than Zurich or Geneva, it has been
hit very hard by the war. The cost
of food has risen on the average
4S.9 per cent above the figures that
prevailed before the war. Clothing
and other commodities probably have
exceeded this figure. The figures have
been compiled and published to show
how urgently necessary are advances
in salary for government officials.
