o UPPER BERTH BETTER IN ( o EVERY DETAIL THAN LOWER (


 It is the opinion of experienced travellers that the upper berth in a sleeping car is superior to the lower berth for the following reasons
 1. It is provided with a spring mattress, whereas the lower berth is made upon the cushions of the seat
 2. It is we'll ventilated, and par takes of the air and temperature of the entire car, rather than being enclosed completely, as is the lower berth.
 3. It has hooks provided for hang ing up clothing which lower berths do not have.
 4. Modern cars have berth lamps, mirror and separate curtains for up per berths. As fast as possible these features are being adder to cars now in use.
 5. It is cheaper, costing but so per cent of the price of the lower berth in most instances.
 6. Occupants of upper berths have exactly the same privileges as the occupants of the lower berths dur ing the day time when berths are not being occupied TsM
 Travellers seldom think of these things when buying sleeping car reservations. They view with alarm the somewhat imaginary inconven- fence of adjusting themselves to the comfortable upper berth The grow ing list of experienced travellers who prefer the upper berth, and sleep up stairs" regardless of the supply of lower berths, is testimony worthy of consideration of their fellow trav- elers. Patrons who occupy the up- per berth will be more healthy, wealthy and wise. Their good health will come from the good ventilation and soft, springy bed of the upper berth. Their increased wealth will consist not only in the 20 per cent saved in the price of the berth, but in their increased earning capacity. attributed to their good health. Their increased store of wisdom is manifested by their act of purchas- ing an upper berth instead of a lower.
 The use of the upper berth by an increased list of travellers will pro mote economy also on the part of

which could secure data, hold meet ings and prepare proposed plans for submission to the convention This has been done in other states, and has been found to facilitate greatly the work of the convention.
 It is also pointed out that this plan would save about $40,000, the expense of holding a special session for the ratification of the constitu- tiOn. The election must be held within 120 days immediately follow ing its completion. This could be delayed to time three months pre- ceeding the general election in No vember, and the constitution sub mitted at that time. This would not only save expense, but it would get out a better vote. It has been the record of all special elections that the people do not turn out generally.
 In view of these conditions, it has become highly improbable that the convention will continue in session,

RoME's QUIET uNBRokEN

One of the good stories in circu- tion is told by Joe Tumulty, secre- tary to the President. He likes his job, but he dislikes one thing about it.; that he can't tell the boys~-the friendly reporters-about all they wish to know. He Illustrated his in- ability to give information once by quoting the case of Johnny.
 Johnny was crying in the hall as his mother came along, halted and coated. She asked what had hap pened.
 You are going away; and so is papa!" Johnny sobbed
 Why, child, I shall be away two or three days, but father is not going away !"
 'sYes. he is' cried Johnny. He's going to Rome"
 Rome? What do you mean, dear?" asked the surprized mother.
 He said today to MT. Brown that he would make Rome howl when you left"
 Indeed! We'll, I sha'n't leave you now" Philadelphia Press.

 Col. w. l.. Terry, who was con- gressman from this district for sev- eral years, and was most active in Arkansas politics for many years, has been confined to his home for months with paralysis. It is feared he will never be able to get out again.
 In this day or organization, inten- sive systemitization, to such an ex- tent that it is often feared that it may result in reorganization, new movements are often started that deserve to spread and increase their influence for good.
 In the midst of the militaristic spirit that is abroad in the land, it is refreshing to witness something that has an aesthetic tendency. Such a movement is that started by Mrs.

LITTLE ROCK LETTER
(By Clio Harper)

Little Rock, Oct. 8.-With the time for the opening of the constitutional convention only six weeks off, a little more interest is being aroused in it.
 Although there is no special agi- tation of the subject, it is rumored in high political circles that there may an adjournment after organization. According to this rumor, the conven- ton will probably meet and organize, and after the appointment of com mittees, will recess until next spring or summer, probably to some date following the March primaries. The various subjects to be considered in formulating the new organic law could then be referred to committees

 amounting to practically license by the city, these places had been per mitted within few yards of the best retail sections of the city, extending several blocks east toward the whole sale section. A few property owners who owned old buildings in that sec tion held up these miserable women for outrageous rentals. Shop keep CTS also charged fancy prices for their wares, and, all in all the busi- ness in all it's hideousness was one calculated to make the people of Little Rock ashamed, and to cause thinking folks to seriously inquire what could be done to make things more representative of the best thought and impulses of a progress sive and charitable people.
 Now all this has been changed. The dives have been closed. Scat tered vice has been followed up and by a rigorous campaign of law en- forcement, has been largely over come. In summarizing, the Mayor says:
 We do not think in Little Rock that we have solved the problem. That will probably not be done until the hearts and impulses of men and women are made over. But we have removed from the city the stigma given it by the policy of protection and practical license. We have made the business difficult and perilous. We have enforced our morals ordi- nances as we have enforced other ordinances against the peace and safety of the community, fining and punishing regardless of the indiyid- ual Furthermore, we have continu- ally discussed through the press, the pulpit, civic organizations and other wise, the evils, physical and moral, following disregard of the laws of personal purity. I believe all these things taken together have elevated the thought of the community on the subject, and the policy now has among it's strongest defenders many of those who were at first doubtful of it's expediency, but who have been converted by the changes wrought under their very eyes"
 Mayor Taylor predicts that thor ough investigation of conditions in Little Rock will convince any fair minded man that 1t would be pre- sumptuous to ask an enlightened people to return to the old con ditions, with all its sin, shame and degradation
