STATE HOSPITAL
 BE READY SOON
 FOR PATIENTS

Little Rock, Aug. 30.-The state general hospital, authorized by the Mast legislature, will be located at Sec ond Sherman streets, in Little Rock, which will be remodeled and used as nucleus for the new institution.
 A meeting of the board. consisting of Chas T. Abeles, Jas. B. Dickinson and w. R. Donham, was held yester- day afternoon with Governor Brough and Frank Pace, representing the Uni versity board, and Drs. Smith, Witt and Slower, representing the medical department.
 The state now holds title to the property of the Poison clinic, the old college building and two adjacent lots. The act provides for the sale of a tract of state land lying west of the deaf mute institute, which has been appraised at $6O,0O0. The propo sition under consideration is whether the governor shall issue an emergency proclamation for $30,000 to be used in equiping the old building, that amount to be reserved from the sale of the property to meet the obligation That will leave $30,0O0 or more fol extensions and maintenance.

 MADE WITH LEMONS Prepare q quarter pint at about the cost of a small Jar of
 common cold cream.

When this homemade lemon lotion is gently massaged into the face, neck, hands and arms daily, the skin natur- ally should become soft, clear and white, and the complexion dainty and attractive.
 What girl or woman hasn't heard of lemon juice to remove complexion blemishes; to bleach the skin and to bring out the roses. the freshness and the! hidden beauty? But lemon juice alone is acid, therefore irritating, and should be mixed with orchard white this way. Strain through fine cloth the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing about three ounces of orchard white, then shake we'll and you have whole quarter pint of skin and complexion lotion at about the cost one usually pays for small jar of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets into the bottle, then this lotion will remain pure and fresh for months. When applied daily to the face, neck. | arms and hands it naturally should help to whiten, clear, smoother and beautify.
 Any druggist will supply three ounces of orchard white at very little cost and the grocer has the lemons. In this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion ladies can easily prepare and have an inexpensive toilet aid which perfectly satisfies their natural desire for a beautiful soft skin.-Adv.

ARKANSAS. CROPS PROGRfSS WELL

Commissioner of Agriculture Page Continues To Get
 Good Reports.

Little Rock, Aug. 3O-F'rom every part of the state Commissioner Page has this week received flattering re- ports of crops. The corn crop will be the largest in the history of the state, and while the cotton yield will be reduced by the scattering attacks of boil weevil, there will be a good crop over the state as Q " hole.
 A peculiar feature about the boil weevil damage this year is that it is occurring in spots. The crop in the Newton bottoms, above Little Rock and on the state farm at Cummins has been cut 50 per cent. by weevils, but on many farms in Jefferson coun- ty, including the white convict farm at Tucker, there will be no loss at all from the pest.
 The sweet potato crop throughout the state is in excellent condition and recent rains have helped the meadows and pastures.
