Whaf Ls Uric oAcfd :?

Everyone has uric acid in the system, but naturally in small quantities. Ex- cessive amount is caused by eating too much meat and foods that ferment in stomach. The kidneys, being the filters of the blood, are supposed to separate and throw the poisons out of the system. Weak, tired and oyerWorked kidneys fail to do this, hence the uric acid accu- mulates and the urate salts are carried by the blood to the solid tissue structure, causing baekache, lumbago, fheuma- tism, dropsy, drowsiness, and tired feeling.
 To overcome the trouble is only q matter of toning up the kidneys, and this is best done by treatment with Ahuric, three times day. Anuric is q recent discovery of Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Yo and can be obtained at any drug store.
 Experience taught Doctor Pierce that Anuric is more powerful agent than lithia in dissolving uric acid, and 1t is then carried out of the system.

Little Rock, Feb. 27-Thc Le2isla. ture of 1917 vii go own in history as one of the most constructive in many years. \ little furry of scandal. possible excess of local legislation, lack of proper deliberation on account of the restriction of the session. these things cannot detract from the facts of actual work done And back of 1t all has been the influence of one man, Gov. Trough the school master governor, who has considered his office one of responsibility. Charged with the execution of the laws of the state, he has properly consid cred himself interested in character of the laws he must enforce. He has therefore taken an active interest in the awmaking branch of the govern. ment. He has recommended and urp- ed the passage of salutary laws and reform measures, and has kept activ- ely behind them, until fully five-sixth of the laws he has recommended have been enacted, or are assured of passage. Even in the mass of local legislature there is large amount constructive work in the building of roads, the furtheranee of local school interests, and the application of the salary system to many counties. that will indirectly benefit the whole state The General Assembly has for the most part worked harmonously with the governor in the realization of his program, and he has assured the law makers that he is willing to accept full political responsibility for the con. sequences If that is done, it will probably land him in the United States Senate

FOUR YEARS OF WILSON

For the first time in more than half a century the country is entering to- day second quadderennial period under a Democratic President. Four years ago the country looked to Democratic administration to correct the abuses which had overgrown our country in long peroid of Republ can rule, and that was to which the administration set itself.
 At the outset two great reforms in the interests of the people and against the privileges of a few were demand ed The tariff was to be purged of favor and the monetary system of the country remade so as to serve the country as a whole and to free the people of the ever-present peril-of money panics.
 This work was carried out, and with legislation which effeetuated the pur- pose that the votes expressed m the election of 1912 came many other new and beneficial laws. Besides the two banking laws, the income tax and the new tariff, the laws of the United States affecting labor have been re- written and made just, the shipping nroblem has been, attacked in earn est. great strides have been made in legislation for the island possessions and Alaska, the army has been
 Iat passed and appropriations made which will bring the navy up to the needed strength and revenues have been provided to meet the extraordin- arv conditions which were brought about by disorder in Mexico and war in Europe.
 It is significant that in all these legislative matters, and in many others which engaged the attention of Congress and the President, the forces of the opposition during the election campaign found so little to critize that their attacks were largely in other directions. and this in the face of confident assertion that no ad- ministration within the memory of ma. .eyer. accomplished more in a legislative way.
 The record would be glory enough for the President and the Democratic party if it stood alone. but the cireu- instances under which the record was made constitute the most strik ing feature of the four years.
 Overlooking and confusing every domestic issue has been the menace uf war. At the outset of the Wilson administration there was ground for belief that the coming four years would be period in which old prob lens would be treated in a new way and old issues settled in the light of demohstratiVe experience. Not the least of the misfortunes that have fol- lowed in the train of war has been the wholly abnormal state of commerce abroad and trade at home Ii has ob- been the very embed of our fir has done and darkened the path to be followed

Harrison. Ark, Feb 2. 19I7.-
 To The Packer: The recent cold weather killed some peach buds We find some sections in our orchards where a large per cent were killed, while other sections were nat dam aged % much The greatest damage VAS done in the loW spots where near Iy all the buds were killed, but few rows back from the draws, the buds look better and on the high sections the buds run good Taking our or chards as a whole, think we have enough buds to make normal crop. The good buds are well distributed over the trees and if nothing hap pens from now on, we should be able to produce large, highly colored and perfect fruit.
 Other orchard men around Belle fonte or in the vicinity of our orchards report about the same conditions but from Harrison west for about eight miles, fruit men report that they are badly hurt, although a few orchards ts around Capps, which is located five miles west of Harrison, report that they have enough peach buds to make d crop
 Our blackberries were not damaged and so far everything indicates that we will have a good crop.
 Decatur, Ark.,-After a careful examination of the great peach or chards around Decatur, Gentry and Sloan Springs, leading fruit grow CTS say the fruit buds were killed in the extreme cold snap. Orchardists around Bentonville and Rogers, the other two, great shipping points in northwest Arkansas say their peaches were already killed, in December when the theremometer went to eight below zero. The peach crop is the greatest revenue producer known to fruit growers, and as the past two years have been failures also, a crop was needed badly
