What with the aid OF the architects
and artists freely given and the gen.
eral movement in our large cities to-
ward a greater appreciation OF the
value OF dignified memorials, It. is
likely that the main centres OF popu-
~ ion at -1s9 I a1a.S lika'y to com.
NIT any grave crimes against good
taste in the building OF monuments
Would standardize Designs.
What of the town and village? The
suggestion has been made by Alfred
c. Bosom that standard designs fer
small monuments be prepared, which
could be placed at the disposition OF
local committees who had no large
sums to spend. 49,
with some sculptor friends OF
mine" said Mr.. Bosom, IT have beer
working out designs along this line
which could be offered free to com
mittees, except for the merely nomina
charge of making plaster casts. Such
casts could be sent to the smallel
communities and used as models from
which the local stonecutters or the
foundry could prepare the monuments
Simplicity and dignity would be thu
keynotes. The material. OF course
should be of the best even II II weri
decided to make the memorials them
selves small. Whatever. material 1
would be decided to employ should bi
real, so that as years go by 1t wouh
not deteriorate. Many Of the monu

States have not been impressive be
cause they were more ambitious IL

MT. Horton, who was in a condition to grasp eager ly at any possible r elief, was profuse with his thanks and asked the hobo his na me. ''Oh, I'm just a hobo," answered the tramp. and without another word walked back into the woods and into oblivion.
 MT. Horton began taking his new-found medicine inn 1nediately. To be perfectly frank, he had but little con- fidence in it. He had taken medicines of all sorts with out result. But he decided to give it a trial anyway. Within three days a decided improvement was noticed. P in and other irritating conditions had been reliev- ed. Two months later he was a well man. And from that time on, he was never troubled with the. disease which had made his life a living q cath for three years.
 Naturally the report of the remarkable cure spread. Folks from all over his sec ton of Louisiana came to. MT. Horton to ta ke his treatment. And relief was given in every instance.
 Then MT. Horton decided that a remedy of the value of this one should be given to the world. With a few friends he formed a com pany, and manufacture on a larger scale commenced.

400 R0TARIANS ID ATTEND CONVENTION
 HERE NEXT MARCH
Benj. C. Brown, District Cover. nor, Is Guest of Pine Bluff
 Club.

That 400 or more Rotarians of Ar. } kansas, Louisiana and Mississippi will come to Pine Bluff March 24 and 25 1920, to attend the conference of the Fourteenth Rotary district, was the opinion expressed at the meeting of the Pine Bluff Rotary club last night by Benj. c. Brown of New Orleans, governor of this Rotary district. MT. Brown urged the local club to make its plans for the biggest conference in the history of the district, saying his visits to clubs in the district in- dicted that each would be represent ed by large delegation MT. Brown made what Rotarians declare was one of the best talks on Rotary they have heard. He explained that Rotary has no place for the selfish man, who seeks individual success and the dol lar above all else, but that the spirit of service Rotary seeks to inculcate will excite to philosophical acts, which, performed in the attitude of generosity and helpfulness, will bring happiness, as we'll as success. He urged Rotarians to refrain from an attitude of pride in their organiza- tlon, but, on the other hand, to so live and practice Rotary that they will bring from the public the appre- citation public spiritedness deserves.
 There were 72 Pine Bluff and two visiting Rotarians, as we'll as several guests to assemble at the Hotel Pines to greet the Rotary official. Of the other 17 members of the club, seven advised inability to attend.
 Visitors Present.
 Applause greeted the reading of a letter from G. A. Edelsvard, who. detained at Leachville, Ark, on busi ness, communicated his regret at missing the meeting, and enclosed 2 check for $26, of which $1 was for the fine for missing the meeting, and $25 for the "kiddies' Christmas fund"

MT. Horton's trouble had been Bfight's Disease. This terrible scourge of the hu- man race had given him three years of pain, irrita- tion and misery. The hobo's compound had cured him, and it had cured many oth- CTS afflicted with similar troubles.
 Therefore Mir. Horton de- cided to irnnortalize this naneless tramp. He named his preparation HOBO Kid- ney and Bladder Remedy, and the business, which is now located in Shreveport, La, is called tn e H o bo Medicine Mfg. Co.
 For nine years, now, this remedy has been growing in popularity a nd ia me. With practically nothing but word-of-mouth testimo- ny, the sales of this remark able medicine have grown U n il m a " thousands of bottles are. used every month, and almost every mail contains voluntary testimonials from users.

An historically accurate account of how atered hob0 whose name is still unknown, became benefacfor to humanity

THO begin with, this is
 a true story. And,
 A being true, it is just one more piece of evidence to prove that truth is really stranger than fiction.
 For nearly three years MT. G. D. Horton of Sing CT, La, had been suffering from one of the most ma lignant and painful diseases to which the human flesh is heir. Naturally he had become morose, despond- ent. Famous doctors h ad pronounced his case incur- able. Obviously he was liv- ing-only to die.
 One day in a fit of desper- ation he started to walk out of town down the railroad track. He didn't know where ne was going and didn't care. He walked awhile and then, being seiz- ed with unusually severe pains, he sat down to rest. Shortly thereafter a ragged, unkempt hobo appeared and spoke to MT. Horton: wv h a t S the matter. old man?" he said. kindly.

pump Of tan leather, which may BE-
worn either with silk stockings or
ribbed wool hose.
These pumps are for running about
summer mornings. They look well with
sport costumes and are most comfort
able and convenient to wear. They
are not correct for golf; rather heavy
soled calf boots or oxfords should be
worn on the links, though in midsum-
mer, when the turf is quite dry. white
buckskin shoes and Oxfords appear on
the golf course with white costumes.
Buttoned shoes are coming back
into fashion again, but they must not
be worn with sport clothes any more
than party slippers would be. The but
toned boot, especially when it has a
high heel, represents the standard of
correctness for formal or semiformal
wear, and it somehow does give a
smart frock that completeness of style
no laced shoe ever seems able to eff
feet, however smartly it is made.

CUT-oUT PoslES ON WALLS
Fad to Decorate Bedrooms and Sit
ting Rooms-Affords Interesting
and Refreshing Novelty.

Girls with artistic taste are decorat-
ing their bedrooms and sitting rooms
very gayly just now, says the London
Gentlewoman. On self-colored walls,
they paste baskets of flowers of many
colors, which they themselves have
painted and cut out. Or, if not flow
ers, which are sometimes in natural,
but often in -futuristic, colors, other
devices. A well-known young singer
has painted number of daffodils-
yellow, Of course, one cannot imagine
daffodils anything but yellow land
pasted the cut-out flowers against a
silvery wall. The effect is deliciously
fresh, these spring days. Then a large
number of people bent on identifying
their houses in an entirely novel way,
and with artistic suggestiveness, are
painting their furniture with equally
happy result.

NEW THINGS IN MILLINERY
Include Straws Trimmed With Navy
Georaette or Taffeta; Some Mod
erately Priced Models.

A very pretty type of leghorn hat is
now being shown, according to the
bulletin of the Retail Millinery Asso-
citation Of America, with this straw
combined with navy georgette or taft
feta. These hats, the bulletin states,
can be used either for sport or tai
lored wear.
'In some cases." it continues, "the
entire crown Of the hat is covered with
the georgette or taffeta. Flanges on
the upper or lower brim are attrac-
tive, as well as side crowns. This
style of hat has been seen in a mod
erately priced model and, owing to
the prediction that leghorns will be q
big factor this summer, it should be
popular. Tuscans, too, are trimmed
In the same way, with flange, side
crown or entire crown made Of navy
geOrgette or taffeta."

FEMININE FRIPPERIES

Some of the latest brassieres are
being made of chiffon with yelled
clOslngs.
Black net and gold passementerie
are charming for evening turbans.
Blouses designed to be worn with
suits are especially partial to embroid-
cry.
Some of the new jersey frocks come
in strong cOlors.
Bead studded silk bags are popular
and less expensive than those with
solid beading.
Many of the new cotton or silk
blouses have sleeves of three-quarter
length, with wide cuffs.
Some Of the new brocade vests in
the smart box coats have their lower
parts gathered to simulate a girdle.

Sweater, MILDLY style Of heavy silk,
seafoam color, white kid belt. Skirt
Of white serge, accordion plated.
the charm of our thin summer apparel
lies in it's perfect freshness and ex-
quisite daintiness, and these qualities
undeniably can be achieved even by
the most meager incomes If one so de-
termines.
Some clever women who make
sweater and separate skirts answer
their needs are wearing the long
sleeved sweaters over fine camisOles
and without a blouse underneath, set
ting the sweater off with fine cuffs
and wide collars of lace and lawn.
Naturally the sweaters worn thus are
the slip-On type and generally are of
navy blue or white. As to the skirts,
which are so essential a part of the
summers outfit, nothing ever was pref
tier or more satisfactory than the
sport satins or rOugh-surfaced silk. If
we are considering the matter of
economy they are the things of first
consideration, for while the satins can
be successfully Numbered, they can
be used a long time without, and do
not rumple as wash materials will do.
Again, the cOlors are so enchanting,
and, now that such a world of new eff
fects are brought out, one has endless
shades to choose from.
Because the new sport satlns have
weave which is disable in the reverse
side some Of the new skirts have
hens, pockets and belt fashioned of
the reverse side of the material. For
the most part these sport skirts all
have the straight round lines we have
had now for a number of years and
the fullness is gathered in at the band
and distributed evenly quite around
the waist. Wide belts of the satin are
worn with them and fasten at one
side with large pearl buttons. The
hens along the bottom of the skirt
are deep, though in the new weaYes it
is possible to make the skirt of the
width of the material and then the sell
wage is used and no hem. This effect
win prevail, as it saves time, labor
and extra material. The tan silks such
as we have seen in standings, pongees
and rajahs are very smart this year.
Some are cleverly trimmed with
fOulards or surahs appliqued in some
clever way. While for the most part
these also are made in the straight
round way mentioned, one finds them
now and then with plated sides put in
from waist to hem.

Sport footwear these days is an Inn

boots for every sort Of outdoor occupa-
ton are obtainable, and it is almost as
fatal to make a mistake In sport foot
wear as it is to wear the wrong sort of
boots on more formal occasions. Heel
less shoes are not correct for the golf
course, yet heels must not on any ac-
count be worn on the tennis court-or
on deck OF a yacht or motor cruiser.
There are white sport oxfords and
