WHAT "BARRAGE FIRE. is

An interesting feature of artillery
fire is the curtain" or "barrage"
fire. This means simply keeping up
such a terrific fire on a certain area
that an enemy cannot or will not
cross it. When an infantry attack is
launched, barrage on the ground be-
yond the enemy's front line prevents
his reinforcements coming up while
the attacking infantry are having it
out with the defenders of the trench,
If the attack carries beyond the first
line. the artillery of the defense
promptly interposes a barrage to pre-
vent it's reaching the second line. If
the attack on the first line fails, the
defending artillery puts a barrage be-
hind the attackers line, to prevent
reinforcements Ginning up to it, and to
enable the victorious defenders to
counter-attack and destroy the enemy
in his own trenches. 1t is merely a
wholesale development of a long es-
tablished method of supporting the
nfantry.-Major Z. d. Scott, in Ma.
tional Service Magazine for March.

USED RAILS BRING SAME
PRICE AS WHEN NEW

The high price Of steel may be said
to have wiped out the depreciation
which resulted from &c years use of
the rails in an electric car line. run
ming out from Tacoma, Wash. This
fact was brought out a few months
after the company began to improve
four miles of it's track with new and
heavier rails The old 40-pound rails
were torn up and stored in the yard
of the company. Since the war began
some 260 tons have been sold to log
ging companies for $500, which is
$40 per ton, or just what they cost
when they were laid twenty-five years
ago. Even the teel which formed the
track at the curves, and ordinarily
would be regarded as worth while,
sold for half it's original cost-From

Combing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve 1T, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub 1t in
gently with the finger tips.
DO this tonight, and by morning
most, If not all. OF your dandruff will
bs gone. and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it. no matter how much dan
druff Won NAV have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy. silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and never
fails to do the work.-Advertisem

culars in foreign language and en-
bodying lessons in first aid to the in

safety first campaign among the mill
lion miners in the United States. The

In announcing the plan Secretary
Lane said that it lis not only an addi-
tional effort toward the safety of the
miners. but is also a step in the line of
good citizenship. There is no possi-
bility of making a good citizen out of
a dead miner, and our first duty in
behalf of good citizenship is to help
prevent miners from being killed"
To make the circulars of educational
value and to teach and encourage for
eigners to learn the English language,

GUARDsMEN NOT TO BLAME

If we are to ask the 10000 men
who compose the National Guard to
hold themselves ready for first-line
service in case of war or for patrol
and police duty in time of peace,
it is not they who are to be blamed
for expecting substantial remunera-
ton from their fellow citizens for
undertaking this task. The more
that we require of these men the more
the Nation must be prepared to pay
them.
The condemnation of pay for the
militia has often missed it's mark 1t
is by no means the men of the militia
who are at fault. The trouble lies in
tolerating a state of affairs under
which it is necessary to bid for the
military service of citizens in COM
petition with the rewards of COM
mericial life.-National Service Mag

COURT COSTS LOWER

Court costs for the March criminal
sessions totaled s2.467.7S. according to
figures compiled by County Treasurer
Mark Mumma. Costs for criminal court
usually total almost $4,000, but county
officials attribute the drop to the fewer
number of cases, and the disposal of
many of the cases within a day after
they were scheduled to be tried. Costs
were divided as follows: Constables,
S27S96; police, S172.50; grand jury,
S344.64; petit jury. s1,O32.5S; tipstaves,

One feature of the program V i'll be moving pictures of road construction. Every town through it's mayor, every county through it's judge and every commercial organization is ex- pected to send delegates. There is more interest in good roads in Arkansas at this time than ever before. This is due to several causes. One is the fact that thou s&nds of dollars of government funds await distribution in Ark ansas for road improvements. that the Alexander road law has been tried out and found work able and that a number of na- tional highways through the state are projected and have caused many local good roads or ganizations to become active.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that IS by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the EGs- tachlan Tube. When this tube is in- famed you have rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, deafness is the rssuit, and unless the inflammation can be talk en out and this tube restored to it's nor- nal condition, hearing will be de- stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf ness are caused by Catarrh, which is an an inhamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood 2n the mucous sur faces of the system
 We will give OHe Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal deafness that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Circulars free All druggists. 75c.
