All who oppose this are op- posing the United States government and are subject to a term in prison or to be put to death. Also those who oppose the military power of the United States in this war are aiding Germany and will bring upon their heads the contempt of the American people. The liberty of not only of America, but of the entire world de- bends on the results of this war. America expects every son to do his duty. otherwise we shall all become the slaves of the German emperor!

They replied ''YXe will open a can of them and q can of California peaches. Ii they are not the best we will pay for them, if they are the best you are to pay eor them
 All pronounced the Arkansas peaches the best, and the merchant had Mir Kryer to bring him in five more cases. Lately Mr. Kryer went into the same store to sell him more, but he still had his last five cases on hand; because Little Rock people think Arkansas peaches are not good enough for them and spend their money for the inferior California va riety.

The Ledwidge school is near the Pulaski county line, but in Perry county Prof. J. M Hill, the teacher, is qualified for the position of city su- perintendent at Little Rock, but owns a forty-acre farm near the school house, which is two miles from the station and would not swap jobs with the principal of the Peabody school, because he has his home here, a few cattle. and he loves to take charge of the little melting pot here and make good citizens of the Italians, French and others who come to his school Although they were bad kids from big cities, they are, he thinks, going to make smart men and women
 A few of them have cut out a right of way down the mountain at an s per cent grade to a connection with the F't Smith or Roland road at a point 25 miles from Little Rock and if the county don't help them to make good road of it Little Rock is the loser.

In time a knocking sounded on the

imperative, and the deeps of sleep
were disturbed by other sounds as well,

Miss Carteret came fully to her

fingers resting nerveless upon half
drawn bolt; eyes wide with apprehen-

gracious color with which sleep had

How to Deal With Germs.

In dealing with germs, 1t should be
remembered that a germ of the mild
est appearance may very often be most
savage. Don't be deceived by germ
that looks harmless. The male germ,
as a rule, is the most voracious and
1t may always be known by its gay
plumage. Germs, as we have been
taught, bring with them every sort
of disease, and while germs are not
always fatal. they try their best to
be. The average conscientious germ
Is chagrined when he fails to kill. If

Particularly the young germs. Germs,

READING Faces,

The New York Medical Record in
an article entitled "The Face and Its
Expression in Diagnosis" is of the
opinion that the Sherlock Holmes fac
ulty In the average doctor enables him
to read in his patients face in a mo-
ment's observation that which the
laboratory or physical examination will
be a long time finding out. Going
somewhat further the writer says that
the physician may have read some
thing in the face of the dog of the
patients household. That at the doc
tors first visit the dogs face would
have shined forth a welcome; at the
next day he could read unalloyed glad
ness at his visit and confidence in him
at the third visit the dogs face would
wear a detected look. The wise physi-
clan would know what this meant. The
family had changed doctors"

WHAT DECAYED TEETH COST
Are More Injurious to the Health Of
Humanity Than Strong
Drink.

Decayed teeth are causing more
harm to the human race than alcohol
DR.. Alfred @. Zones of Bridgeport,
Conn.,, says that approximately 95,O00,-
600 of persons in the United States
have decayed teeth, notes Popular Sci
ence Monthly. Dentistry's next step,
in his opinion, is to wipe out or pre-
vent tooth decay by a systematic cam
paign Of education on the care Of the
teeth among schoolchildren.
How shall this be done? Bridge
ports plan has attracted wide atten-
ton already. Every child In that city
submits to thorough examination of
the mouth and is given free treatment.
This type of clinic costs about 80
cents per child per year. The city as
sumes one-half the responsibility in
educating and helping the children to
preserve their teeth. The other half.
which Is placed on the child and its
parents, consists In providing proper
food and in caring for the mouth.
