COKER IS NAMED
 ON PEN BOARD
Monticello Judge Given Appoint ment. to. Succeed Bradsher-
 Was Not Applicant.

Little Rock, March 20.-Gov Brough yesterday appointed Judge w. A. Coker of Monticello peniten- tiary commissioner to succeed J. A. Bradsher, whose term expired a few days ago. In announcing the ap- pointment the governor said:
 'I have carefully considered this appointment for several weeks, and have read all of the testimony and the report of the penitentiary in vestigation committee. l find noth- ing in this report which reflects in the least upon the integrity and honor of MT. Bradsher, in his man agement of the Tucker farm, nor in any other transaction with which he has been connected. l believe MT. Bradsher to be an honorable and loyal man. He has been, and l trust will be, my friend, and l hope to honor him during my ad- ministration In fact I have already offered him position of honor and trust in connection with my admin istration which l hope he will ac- cept.
 My action in appointing new man is to put new blood and added vitality in the commission and to give it a new start. Judge Coker has been in official life in Arkan- sas for the past 16 yaers. He has been deputy sheriff, sheriff and three times county judge of his county. He has also been president of the County Good Roads and Drainage Association of Arkansas. His appointment came absolutely unsolicited, and was indorsed by my political friends, representing every conceivable faction in the state"

AMERICAN SLANG
 AWES BRITISHERS

London, March 1.-(By Mail) - American slang today is a fearful and wonderful thing. The British CTS struggle with it vaIiantly, as witness this squib in one newspaper just after the announcement of the German submarine decree:
 Among those seen at the steam ship booking office was Alex Q. Jones of Detroit. He was most in dignant in his breezy American way.
 Alex Q. Jones is taking passage for little old Detroit, he declared. and if the Germans think they can frighten him off the big drink by their methods they have taken a long slide into the wrong guess shop. Maybe President Wilson doesn't think it worth while to protect Alex o. Jones but the Yan- kee Doodle boys in congress will let Germany know where she alights and Alex o. Jones will jolly well take his chances"
 The paragrapher of the Pail Mall Gazette did a little better in dis cussing what he said was recent news from the U. s.
 'They now are calling Count von Bernstorff a Spanish athlete" he said. "To understand this you must know that the very latest slang is throwing the bull.' Wherefore, one who throws the bull would be Spanish ath- lete."

CASCARETS FOR

 HEADACHE. COLDS
Tonight! Clean your bow els and stop headache,

Get a 1O-cent box now.

Get a 1O-cent box now. Turn the rascals out-the head ache, biliousness, indigestion, the sick, sour stomach and bad colds turn them out tonight and keep them out with Cascarets. Millions of men and women take Cascaret now and then and never know the misery caused /by lazy liver, clogged bowels. Or an upset stomach.
 Don't put in another day of dis tress. Let Cascarets cleanse your stomach: remove the sour, ferment- ing food take the excess bile from your liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poison in the bowels. Then you will feel great.
 A Cascaret tonight straightens you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10cent box from any drug store means a clear head, sweet stomach and clean, healthy liver and bowel action for months. Children love Cascarets because they never gripe or sicken. GIRLS! TRY IT!
