SENATOR'S SEARCH IN VAIN
Bankhead Seeks Barrel of Persimmon Brandy Lost in Atlanta Fifty
 Years Ago.

Has anybody seen anything of q keg of chewing tobacco and a barrel of persimmon brandy lost by United States Senator Bankhead of Alabamaf He suspects Atlanta, but he isn't mak- ing any definite charges. He just knows they are gone, says the Atlanta Constitution.
 He has been looking for them mighty long time-in fact, ever since Sherman started on his march to At lanta and the sea, and he renewed the search the other day, when he was in the city, but to no avail.
 It seems that Senator Bankhead, then a young captain in the Confeder- ate army, had negro slave who was a wonderful forager, but who finally got into his head that he was the cap tain of the company. So Captain Bank head got furlough and brought his negro to Atlanta to barter or sell him. Finding nobody who would buy, he finally traded the negro to q man whose son is now q prominent Atlanta millionaire. the consideration being a barrel of persimmon brandy and keg of chewing tobacco.
 He stored the barrel and the keg, and when he came back to get them they were gone.

To Save the Towels.

I kept discovering little holes in my towels and had no idea how they got there till saw my husband wiptng his razor blade on them, says core spondent of the New York Sun. He never cut through, but he was apt to cut a thread in spite of his care, and in the next washing the hole appeared. I took some old towels, hemmed sev- eral small pieces about the size of handkerchief, sewed a loop to the cor ners, and keep one of them all the time hanging on hook by the shaving mirror. Since he began to use these have found no more holes in the towels.

Those Who Join May Escape Service
Under Compulsory Military Train
ing Law, Says DR.. Bailey.

With IS men as the minimum nee.
essary for it's organization, only &c
have enlisted for service in the ma.
chine gun company which DR.. j. z
Bailey and Theodore Smith are en-.
deavoring to organize in Conway, DR.
Bailey said today. The formal dec.
laration by the president that a state
Of war exists between the United
States and Germany and his recon-.
mendation that call be issued for
500, 900 volunteers for immediate SER
vice, it is expected, however, to cause
a rapid increase in local enlistments
and bring the. company up to mini
mum if not maximum strength within
a few days.
Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid of their country,
DR.. Bailey said. IF we must have
war, why not get ready? Of course,
1t has come on so gradually that most
people don't believe it or realize the
impending danger. What is our duty
to our country but to protect it and
our homes? Look what the states in
the east are doing, appropriating mil
lions of dollars for defense. Isn't
Arkansas in the United States? Shall
we not do our part?
This week perhaps congress will
pass a universal military training
bill, compelling all men when 10 years
of age to 60 into intensive training
one year, then into the first reserves
for seven years, subject to call. Why
not 60 into the national guard and
thus avoid this service? Thirty young
patriots of Conway have voluntarily
enlisted for service and are ready and
willing to 60 where our country calls
them. Are there not at least 35 more
in Faulkner county who are equally
patriotic?"
The following is the list of the young
men who have already enlisted in the
Conway company:
Sam j. Donnell, William S. Little
Charles M. Heiligers, William Bailey
Sam w. Joslin, Martin Haskins, Harry

men from IL infested states.

men from II infested states.
We have had the disease with us
since the early importations of cattle
from Spain to Mexico and the south
ern colonies. The names commonly
applied to the disease are Spanish
fever, Mexican fever, Texas fever
tick fever, red water, black water
murrain, dry murrain, yellow MUIR
rain, bloody murrain, bovine malaria
and others. 1t is a disease of the
blood in which microscopic animal
parasites attack the red blood cells
causing them to break down, reduc-
ing or impoverishing the blood. The
coloring matter of the blood or de-
stroyed cells are eliminated through
the kidneys and other organs; high
fever is produced.
The disease is produced in but two
ways: Naturally by the fever bear
ing tick and artificially by trans
fusion of blood from an infested an
imal to one susceptible. The infect
ed female TICK transmits the infection
to its progeny and they infect the
beast to which they attack.
The remedy is apparent; kill the
tick. This can be done best and
cheapest through the dipping vat
and cooperation upon the part of our
people. The federal authorities say
we can clean Faulkner county this
year if every one will dip. The cat
tlemen can well afford to donate any
additional money that may be nee
essary. Naylor will do her part.
When our county is tick free not a
one who opposed tick eradication will
have a word to say.

from an animal with several degrees
of fever is not wholesome food.
A few of US around Naylor have
over $1,000 invested in pure bred
cattle. We know these cattle are
very susceptible to tick fever. My
wife estimates our damage from cat
tie ticks last summer at $780, She
is conservative, but this estimate
compares closely with an annual
loss of an average of 10 per cent
from Texas fever, based upon the
estimate of 1000 farmers and cattle
