STRELNA WANTS
 KUSKULANA BRIDGE

The residents of Strelna, realizing that the Kuskulana river is menace to the travelling public and impera- lively needs a bridge, are very anx- ious to secure the few remaining spans of the old Nizina bridge, which have been left in the canyon. With that end in view the Mccarthy Commercial club has been asked to lend it's aid in having the spans removed so that they can be used as a nuleus for a bridge across the Kuskulana river. The progressive citizens at Strelna have arranged for the transfer of the spans from their present site to Me Carthy and V. J. Dwyer has generous ly offered to pay the freight from Me Carthy to Strelna, which amounts to $25O.

Strict Accountinn.

A business man requires those wh8 handle money to account for all eX penditures, holds an employee respon- sible for the full amount trusted to him and demands vouchers for all dis. bursements. Even then he may moi be satisfied without a cash audit by an accountant. Material should be accounted for on exactly the same theory as cash itself (althoush pos sibly less rigorously), says Stephen Gilman, in Industrial Management.

Patriotic Duty to Increase Brood Sows
 and Protect Pigs.

It is the patriotic duty of every Ar kansas farmer not only to keep more brood sows, but to protect his pigs from cholera and other diseases. Re- member, next to cholera, lice and in sestinal worms are the worst enemies ,f the hog. Lice can be controlled by dipping the hogs either in the arsenical cattle dip, used for killing the ticks, pr dipping or spraying in any one of the creosote dips; or applying crude oil, commonly known as louse oil. This is applied by painting it along the back of the hog and on the inside and outside of the ear When the hog lies down in the sun this will run over the body and will kill the ice and remove any scurf which may De on the skin.
 Intestinal worms can be prevented Q certain extent by changing the feeding places of the hogs regularly md keeping the troughs cleaned out; also by scattering lime over the ground where the feed troughs are To- ,ated. A tonic for hogs will to cer- ain extent reduce intestinal parasites. The following prescription has been lsed with good deal of success by his department:
 Soft coal, 100 pounds.
 Common salt, pounds,
 Sulphate of iron, pounds.
 Keep this in a shallow box in the ,og lot where the rain will not get nto it. Detailed information concern ng all kinds of live stock diseases aan be secured by writing to pr. R. M. low, State veterinarian, Old State House, Little Rock, Ark.

Polishing Diamonds.

Before the polishing of a diamond Is begun the rough stone must be held firmly. This is accomplished by build ing solder mold for it. The mold is first roughly shaped by hand and heated. It is then reshaped as often as necessary to fit the stone perfectly. When it is exactly right, it is heated again and the stone dropped in. Held firmly by the snug solder mold. the stone can then be handled easily

Soap Berry Tree.

The jaboncello or soap berry tree grows in the humid parts of western Ecuador. It attains height of about fifty feet and has wide-spreading branches and immense quantities of fruit of the size and shape of cherries. The nearly transparent yellowish skin and pulp surrounding th- round black seeds are so saponaceous as to be used instead of soap by many people of Ecuador, being equivalent to more than fifty times their weight of that material.

Etiouette,

There is an ancient saying that "One should never speak of rope to man whose father was hanged" and there is a great deal implied in those few words. In effect, is meant that subjects of conversation should be carefully in- trOduced where persons present are not known to a certain extent that is, that nothing untoward has happened, publicly, at least. that would make any unusual subject apply too openly to anyone especially.

HOME BADLY DAMAGED

The fire company was called to the
home of John A. Ellis, two blocks
east of the school house on Federal
avenue, about o'clock this morning.
The furnishings and interior of the
house were badly damaged by water.
The fire was confined to the roof and
was quickly extinguished. A defec-
tive f1ue was the cause of the trobule
The sparks were underneath the
roof, covering wide area, which
made it necessary to cut holes and
throw the water from one end of the
house to the other. Otherwise the
Babcock extinguisher could have been
used and the water damage avoided.
Most of the furniture and bedcloth
ing were removed before the fire was
put out, but not until they were we'll
soaked.

S. A. RELIGION
APPEALS TO SOLDIERS
SERVICE AND SACRIFICE COUNTS
FOR MORE THAN SERMONS AND
LECTURES MEN At FRONT,

1.-The Salvation Army appeals TO
the fighting man because 1t breaches
a practical religion calculated to
meet the hard requirements Of ev.
cry dav life with the American Ex-
peditionary Forces. It finds him, un-
der the strain Of modern warfare, in
a peculiarly receptive mood. In the
brave women officers laboring in the
huts he has an undeniable example
Of practical christianity. He sees,
he understands, and In many cases
he accepts. sometimes by kneeling
at a penitent-form more often by
raising his hand in a simple confes-
sion Of Christ as his Savior.
"In the matter Of sermons and
talks, dtreotness of purpose and sin
oerity are essential. Soldiers have
little time to waste upon abstract
questions Of theology, nor have they
much patience with the man who, a.
a minister of religion, devotes the
time supposed to be occupied by
Sunday night sermon to a discussion
of the poetry Of Robert Burns. The
soldier wants his religion in pracu-
cal form, undiluted by other subjects
no matter how interesting they may
In themselves be. The direct SIM
plicity and sincerity Of the Saliva
ZIONIST has proved to be both effec-
tive and acceptable. touching the
hearts and lives Of men from every

Down the street little ways a
couple of Salvation Army girls, bless
EN-, had been making home .made
pies and doughnuts for the boys. and
when the shells begun humming
! around there the officers made them
! leave. And in the same block was a
big old tumble-down house that the
Red Cross had that they called The
Outpost
Big shells lit at the front door,
blew a lean-to at the back of the
house in about 800 pieces, tore big
chunk out of their garden wall and
struck all around the neighporhood.
AND all the while this was going on
two Red Cross volunteers, who both
was rich men back in the states.
was up there in the smokey kitchen
bending over a open fire made of
green. wet twigs, trying to boil wa
ter so that they could make a big
1O-gailon can Of hot chocolate for
some soldiers who was coming out
Of the trenches that night.
Money didn't mean so awful much
to soldiers fighting because so much
of the time their money Is useless
when you're up here in the fighting
zone, and you're wet and hungry and
tired, if you had all the money in the
world millions of it, you couldn't
buy single tin cup of hot chocolate
or coffee and one single smoke.
Those things are not for sale-but
here the Red Cross was giving them
away.
All the people back in the states
has to do is to furnish the money to
the government and keep the home
fires burning-and then every time
the Red Cross, or the Y. NJ. c. A., or
the Knights OF Columbus, or the
Salvation Army, or any organization
like that needs some money dig down
and give it to them.
I'd say that after a soldier has
been in the trenches for a week
straight and then comes out and
hikes miles through the night and
the rain, cup of hot chocolate and
a pack of smokes was worth Just
about million in geld. That's con-
sentative, too.-Dallas Times-Herald.
