GINGLES' JlNGLES
MARI ED LIFE.

Well cut out dining with our
friends, my wife has said to we; the
news was not as welcome as it might
have been to me, because the Joneses
and the Smiths and also Mrs. Brown,
can dish some eats that are immense
the finest in the town. But wife has
clamped the lid for good, at least she
so has said Our feed box now shall
be at home, or we shall go unfed; the
White House Cook Book is her guide
delicious meaneth good, we're not
to question that at all-although
there's times we could; we're very
much domestic, we shall flop our
wings no more, for they are trimmed
down to the quick, they're useless
and they're sore. You'll fall for home

me my wife; you'll eat my biscuits
and my pies and go insure your life.

You're worse than that-you're rude
and rough, but I'll train you at home,

The Supreme Court last week held
that there is no law on the statute
books by which man can be convict
ed of arson for burning his own prop
ertv. G. c. Hanna of Benton County
was indicted on the charge ofhaying
paid Lloyd Lewis S75 to burn his prop
erty, which it was alleged cost HIM
$500, but which was insured Tor
$4,000. Attorneys for the defendant
filed a demurrer on the ground that
the indictment did not charge any OIL
Tense against the statutes, because the
laws of the state define arson as
'swilful and malicious burning OF the
house or other tenements OF another
person" The demurrer was sustain
ed bv the court and an appeal was
taken to the Supreme Court, when

court. A number Of similar indlet-
ments are pending in different sec

FROM THE PEOPLE
THE SOLDIERS MOTHER.


The bravest, most patriotic one is
not always found at the front of bat
tie; it is not always the one who for
sakes home, friends and loved ones, to
serve his country who has the most
loyal heart; but one of the truest
hearts that ever beat in the bosom of
any of Uncle Sans loyal children, is
one who has never been in the thick
of the fight, never spent night IN
camp, or shoudered musket. This
brave soul is the soldiers mother.
The soldiers mother; God bless her.
It was she who carea for him in his
childhood days, shared all Of his child
ish joys and sorrows, and taught him
to say N, W | lay me down to sleep"
1t was she who taught him LIES
great lessen, to be honest, kind and
true; to always love the rigns and
hate TIE wrong.
1t was she who prayed so earnest
ly that her boy might become good
and useful man. How fully that
prayer is answered when that boy
at last becomes a soldier
His country calls for volunteers and
he offers his services.
Then comes the parting. Who can
describe the feelings of that mother
as she kisses her boy goodby and bids
him do his duty faithfully, whatever
it might be, and trust in God for the
rest.
Then she sees him march away with
his comrades. looking so noble and
| brave, while in her heart there is a
feeling of mingled pride and sorrow.
Oh how she misses him when he is
gone. How lonesome the home is
without him; how she thinks over and
over again of the last words he said
to her, and how earnest are the pray
ers that her lips breathe for him each
day
When her soldier is far away some
times he finds it impossible to write
to her and many times he is negligent,
but mother never neglects to write to
him and send him some little token
of her love.
All honor to the soldiers mother
Perhaps her hair is white as the snow
drift and her steps grown slow Per-
haps her shoulders are dropped and
deep lines of care and pain are writ
ten on her face; and perhaps some
may call her little ''old fashioned
but it is she who has given our coun-
try the noble boy who is so valiantly
protecting our land today and up
holding from the dust the star span
gled banner Truly it can be said OF
the soldiers mother, she hath dona
what she could"

FARM MACHINERY
Loss 100000
Through Neglect Farmers Are Per-
hitting Tools and Machinery
To Depreciate.

By V. II Kern, Specialist in Farm
Machinery, Extension Division. Uni
versity OF Arkansas.
1.-THE average annual loss in Ark
ansas on farm machinery alone is APP
proximately $S,000,000 and is increas-
ing with alarming rapidity in spite OF
the tremendous advance in the prices
of everything used in producing crops.
Our people fail TO realize that there
is a serious shortage of material and
they may not be able to buy imple-
ments in the near future even if they
have the money to pay for them.
Through neglect and improper care
they are permitting their tools and
machinery to depreciate in value as
much as 80 per cent year. Wag-
ons and implements that should last
eight to 10 years are worthless after
being used three or four seasons. Our
people should take care of what they
have and buy more and better ma
chinery with their savings. Too many
of our farmers are now seriously han
dieapped because they are not proper

Farm Machinery a Necessary
investment.

From business standpoint, farm
machinery must be considered nee
essary investment. Economy means
management without loss or waste
and only when the most strict econo-
my is praeticed will the highest pos
sible dividends be obtained from the
machines used on the farm. Length
ening the life and efficiency Of the
farm machinery is the most practical
method for increasing this dividend
per dollar investment. Improper care
of farm machinery cuts down the
farmers yearly savings by reducing
the efficiency of his machines and in
creasing the piles of discarded imple-
ments throughout the country. Weak
ened part of implements, due to rust
ing and rotting, break when strain
is placed on them and as a result the
repair bill is increased TO say nothing
of the time lost and farm work de-
layed while repairs are being sent for.

CHILD MARRIAGES IN ENGLAND

Child marriages were common
enough in ENGLAND a century OF two
ago. Wards o. the crown in partic-
uia' were frequently married before
theyq reached their teens. Some
children were married at the age OF
five, while from nine 20 twelve was
considered cutie a manageable age
for girls. Little Mol Villiers, daugh-
ter Of the Duke Of Buckingham. was
not merely wife. but a widow. at
the age Of nine. and there are de-
scriptions Of her romping in the
garden and climbing cherry trees in
her widows veil.

HOW TO BORROW BILLIONS
GoTernn7ent Can Sell More Bonds
Than There Is Money in Circula-
tion In Entire Country.

How, It may be asked, can the pres.
ident borrow $1,000, 100000 when there
is not that much money in the entire
country? The answer is that it will
not all be borrowed at one time in
one lump sum. Portions of it will be
borrowed at different times, and soon
after one portion has been borrowed
it will be spent, ana those who receive
it can lend it again, says e. S. Forman
in st. Nicholas.
This can be made clear by an Illus
tration: Mr.. Smith, a shoe merchant,
has $500, which he wishes to lend to
Uncle Sam. He gives the government
the cash in the form of Il $500 bill,
and receives in return Il bond Ga prom
issory note) fer $500. Shortly after
this transaction Uncle Sam buys from
Mr.. Smith $500 worth of shoes for the
soldiers and pays for them. let us say,
with the identical $500 bill which he
borrowed from Mr.. Smith. Now il
Uncle Sam is still borrowing money,
Mr.. Smith, if he desires to do so, can
lend his $500 bill to the government 4
second time and receive in exchange
II second bond for $500. Thus our 5000
bill has served as the means of bor-
rowing $1,000. OF course, by repeat
ing the transaction sften enough, the
$500 bill could be used for borrowing
many thousands of dollars.

Wild Pony From Iceland.

The. steamer Bowie of the White
Star line, brought in two rare addi-
tions for the collection of wild and
doncsticated horses in the New York
geological park, says the New York
Evening Post. One, silver-gray Gel
tic pony from Iceland, was selected
out of herd of 500. This horse is q
dwnrfed and hardy variety of the
Arabian horse which found its way to
the North through western Europe,
and was hunted for food by the men
of the stone age in prehistoric days.
This is the type Of horse which was
drawn, painted and sculptured by the
cave men. Some of the cave draw.
ings are like the Celtic when in its
short summer coat. In its winter coat,
the pony shows broad lock of hair
ut the top of the tail for protection,
perhaps, from northern storms.
This breed Is now extremely rare in
Europe. 1t was discovered about
twelve years ago by Prof. J. Cossar
Ewart of the University of Edinburgh,
from whom the park received its spe-
cimen.
