Hurts Scientific Research.

Specimens of meteorites command such value that those which fall to the earth are generally broken up in- to innumerable parts and scattered In all directions among the private col lections. Thus one of the earliest known meteorites, that found in En- sisheim. Upper Alsace, In 1892, is rep resented in 66 collections. The result of this practice is that exorbitant prices are asked by dealers for me teoric material in amounts sufficient for analysis and study. A recent cata- logue of a Philadelphia dealer, says . writer in Science. adyertises per fectly commonplace type of meteoric stone at S5 gram, the only possible excuse being that there was not much of it, and in falling it passed through the roof of barn.

Students Orginanized.

Tae students of the Arkansas, State Normal from Franklin County, meet Thursday Feb. P and organized a County Club. This Club is one of several County Club organized in the school, the purpose of which is to boost the Noi nal in our county and to boost our county in the Normal. " There are thirteen members, five from Ozark, three from Alix. four from Greenwood, and one from Branch.
 Mr, Burrel Conatser was elected President, Miss Sidney Mae Iompson secretary treasurer. Miss Ellen Jennings reporter to the Normal Echo, and Luke Jac cNman, reporter to the home +paper, Miss Mattie Frank Milton wa chosen to represent Franklin county in the Arkansas, Boosters Club which is composed of repre- ser tatives, one being chosen from each county in the State. The name of this cluo suggests its purpose and We hope that in time Arkansas will send as other States do, her thousands of stud ents to the Normal instead of just a few hundred. There is a bill awaiting the action of the Senate in the present legislature. which provides S100. 900 for new buiId- ing and $7500 for equipment. This bill passed the House with out any discussion and with only three votes against it. With this amount, and with the present buildings. Arkansas will haveone of the finest Normal School in the south.
 The roll consist of the follow ing, Misses Sidney Mae Tompson, Ellen Jennings, Louise MclIroy,, Cumi Felker. and Matte Frank Milton, from Ozark; Burrel Conatser, Garland Conatser, Romie Wilson, and Austin Wilson fromGreenwood, Miss Ola Callans from Branch: Miss Dora Hudson, Jay Sandboe, and Luke Jackman, from Alix,

DRlNlE HOT WAITER IF YOU DESIRE A ROSY COMlPLl LlEXlOtN Says we can't help but look better and feel better
 after an inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones best is to enjoy an inside bath each morn ing to flush from the system the pre- vious days waste. sour Concentrations and poisonous toxins before il is ab- sorbed into the blood. Just a. coal, when it burns, leaves behind a cer- tain amount of incombustiblc material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in tte ali mentary organs certain amount Of .ndigestible material. which if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are in- tended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body.
 If you want to see the glow or healthy bloom in your checks, to seo your skin get clearer and clearer. you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with q teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. which is a harmless means Of wash ings the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver. kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimeptary tract before putting more food into the stom~ ach.
 Men and women with sallow skins. liver spots, pimples or pallid com- plexion, also those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste. nasty breath. others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells. acid stomach or constipation should begin this phos- phated hot water drinking and are assured of very pronounced results in one or two weeks.
 A quarter pound of limestone phos- phate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the inside organs We must always consider that internal sanitation Is vastly more i'm portant than outside cleanliness, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.

Does Not Represent Arkansas

Senator Kirby does not repre- sent the people of the great state of Arkansas when he joins a clique in the senate to defeat the will of the people of the United States by fiIibustering.
 We believe that congress should stand squarely behind the president in these critical times. The vast majority of the people of this state believe the same.
 Kirby should be civilized.

Earthquakes.

There is no limit, except the slEe of the continent, to the distance of the origins of earthquakes from the ocean. Earthquakes occur in the mid dle of Asia, and probably the strongest earthquakes on record In the United States occurred in the southeastern part of Missouri in the years 1911 and 1912. There is less information as to the altitude. but it is probable that earthquakes occur very high in noun tain ranges. A very severe earthquake on July 6, 1912, occurred in the nelgh- borhood of Mount Mckinley Alaaka. apparently at very high altitude No exact figures can be given.

Real EquaIitv.

That little haired Welshman over in London did a thing yesterday that has rattled more dry bones 1 this world than have been shaken up before in centuries" says the Wichita Eagle. He began to screw the clamps down on earth's most privileged class, the rich tra des- people and the landed aristocracy of England. He notified the landed aristocracy that the government would compel them to farm their deer preserves and fox courses. He outlined to them that they would be forced by law to increase the wages of farm laborers and maintain the new high rate He also passed sent ence onS their timbered play grounds. Simultaneous he an nounced a list of prohibited im- ports which sweeps out of the daily living of the tight little island virtually every luxury, This pinches the rich trading class of England as well as the aristo- cracy. The whole thing has been done with a courageous thorough ness that delights the soul. Money in England, as elsewhere has always meant a certain inn munity from the material de- privations of war. Rich and poor have suffered alike, but not Tn the same degree. To get along with half saddle of mutton Is not the same thing as getting along with half loaf of bread. The poor man who scrapes the crumbs from a meager cupboard eX- periences a equality of misery that the rich man, who has to forego butter for biscuit. nevers knows. Lloy George has swept the chess men from the board and dumped them all. bishop and rock and pawn into a single bag. The class lines in England have been desperately obstinate. Among an inherently democratic people they have held against time, tide and the machinations of men. The rich and the aristocratic of England have made courageous sacrifice on the fields of battle. None has been braver. So have the poor made sacrifice. The rich and the aristocratic have stood the heaviest excise with out grumbling. The poor would have done so with equal cheer mess if they had aught to tax. But now the rich and aristocratic are to surreder their luxuries, the creature comforts which the poor never had or long ago sur rendered. And that is real equality.
