ST. FRANCIS COUNTY IS
DEMANDING NEW LAWS

FORREST CITY, Ark, Jan. q. (Spl)
When the representative from St.
Francis, T.. r. HARRISON. arrived home
from Little Rock for the Weekend with
his family, he found an armful OF bills
and petitions awaiting him.
Among the most important OF these IL
one calling for the enactment of a no.
fence law covering the territory lying
east Of the st, Francis river, In st.
Francis county, and prohibiting the run
ming at large of stock within that por-
ton of the county.
Another petition Is being circulated
asking Representative HARRISON to
pass a bin providing for the expendl-
ture Of so per cent Of the road taxes
collected within the corporate limits Of
the city Of Forrest city on the streets
of the city whereas, heretofore. all the
road taxes paid by local property own
ers, has been spent on the county roads.
The petition for this bin was circu-
lated by Mayor II, A. Knight and has
been signed by all the members of the
city council and a number of prominent
citizens.
Other bills are those asking that a
new school district be created in st.
Francis county to be known as school
district No. 10 and embracing the lands
lying in sections II, 10. IA, 90 and "a,

Rupture Kills
1000 AnnUQLLu

Seven thousand persons each year are
laid away--the burial certificate being
marked Rupture" Why? Because the
unfortunate ones had neglected themS
selves or had been merely taking cara
of the sign (swelling) of the affliction
and paying no attention to the cause.
What are you doing? Are you neglect
ing yourself by wearing a truss, appli-
ance, or whatever am you choose to
call it? AT best, the truss is only a
makeshift-a false prop against a col
lapsing wall-and can not be exposed
to act as more than a mere mechanical
support. The binding pressure retards
blood circulation, thus robblng the
weakened muscles Of tnat which they
need most-nourishment.
But science has found a way, and
every truss sufferer in the land is in
vited to make a FREE test right in
the privacy Of their own home. The
PLAPAO method Is unquestionably the
most scientific, logical and successful
self-treatment for rupture the world has
ever known.
The PLAPAo PAD when adhering
closely to the body can not possibly
slip or shift out Of place, therefore,
can not chafe or pinch. Soft as velvet
easy to apply-ineXpensiye. To be

WOMEN IN ARMS
FOR BEJACH ACT
Want Equal Rights With Men
in Control Of Their
Property.

The womcn's organizations Of Mem
phis are up in arms over the prospect
of the repeal of the Bejach law, known
as IAN act to remove the disability Of
coveture,' passed by the legislature Of
1918.
Sunday night Mrs. c. b. Allen, presi-
dent Of the Woman Suffrage party,
sent Senator F. d. Fuller the following
message:
I'VE are opposed to the repeal Of
the Beiach law as a whole. Would con-
slider such repeal as a decided step
backward. II this law as 1t now stands
is in any way unjust to the men We
are willing that an amendment be
passed securing equal property rights
to both men and women. We desire
no prefer entail legislation, but equal
rights under all laws"
The women regard the repeal OF he
law as almost certain unless IT can
be held up in the senate. as IL has
already passed the house. Broadly
speaking, the law gives a married WON
an the right to handle and dispose of
Of the death of the wife the husband
does not share in her estate. In the
event of the death of the husband
the wife shares in Ms estate and the
women are agreeable to an amendment
placing both on the same basis. but
they object to having the law wiped
out altogether.
Mrs. Allen says the law could not
have been repealed If the ome were
able to maintain a lobby in Nashville
to look after their interests.
