WHAT A DIFFERENCE
 JUST A FEW YEARS MAKE

The approach of the extraordinary session of the legislature on July 28 is attended with no preliminary ex- citement, It will be unique in the history of special sessions. It will assemble at noon Monday, and prob ably adjourn at noon Tuesday, There is nothing to do, under the governors proclamation, but to ratify the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment. That could be done by both houses in one afternoon, if they pushed the business. There will be some preliminaries, how ever, to be attended to, and it is pos sible that some of the members have stored-up eloquence which must be disposed of The House will probably have to elect a speaker, as c. P. New ton, speaker of the regular session, is in California, and it is understood will not return for the special session.
 Individual members in several in- stances will endeavor to secure con- sideration of curative road legislation, which can be done on the vote of two- thirds of the members. If enough counties can be made interested in the proposition, they might agree to pass some special road acts, which would take several days, probably consume the whole week.
 But that sex restrictions may be removed from the ballot is the pri- mary purpose of the session. How strangely do things happen! Less than a decade ago, suffrage could hardly get a hearing in the Arkansas legislature, and to advocate suffrage meant political suicide. Now, and for the last two years, suffrage is the first plank in the platform of the shrewd politician.

SECURING DAIRY CATTLE
 AT REASONABLE PRICES

Closer relations are being formed between the dairying and agricultural interests of Arkansas and the north ern states through the efforts of the extension forces and the profitable farming organization. As a result, conditions in Arkansas are being rapidly improved, and the state is coming into it's own
 For instance, the director of agri- cultural extension work in Wisconsin has advised Commissioner Jim G. Fer guson that the government county agents of Wisconsin are prepared to assist the Arkansas county agents and farmers of this state in securing dairy cattle at reasonable prices.
 Where sufficient number of buv- CTS are present in a community a car load shipment can be made up and a considerable amount saved on freight charges. For this purpose, several communities in county might form a club for the purchase of a car lot of these cattle.
 Many Wisconsin dairy cattle have been brought into Arkansas by farm CTS and dairymen who have visited that dairy section, and the opportunity IS now given for them to purchase

CLAIMS kINsHIP To- KAISER
Girl Held for Theft in England Says
She Is Princess Of
Germany.

LOndOn.-Tried on 8 charge Of lar
ceny, girl known as Daisy Irving tes
titled at Bromley, Kent, that she wal
innocent and had double who was
thief. The girl said she was born al
Potsdam on January 1, 1893, and was
christened Diamendo Wilhelmins
Hohenzollern.
Her father was Prince Victor VIII
helm Hamburg Hohenzollern, the son
of the brother of the ex-kaiser and
cousin to the ex-crown prince.
Her mother was Frenchwoman
and the only name she knew her by
was Grille Irving Accused further
said that she had visited nearly every
country during her life, but the first
time she came to England was in Octo-
Der last.
She then came with her parents
from Paris. A motor journey and
visit to a bungalow were incidents Of
her adventures of which the accused
spoke. II am a German princess in
my own right" she declared.
II was alleged that under the name
Of Miss V. Raymond she rented fur
nished cottage at Hayes and while
there disposed Of a piano, a sewing
machine and other household articles.
She was held.

DECLINE IN SHEEP SINCE 1914.


Before the war the United States
had approximately one-tenth of all
the sheep in the world Since then
the total number of sheep has de-
creased from all causes about one
tenth, possibly more. That makes
the world decline in excess of SO mil
lions of sheep, or slightly greater
than the number of sheep in the
United States.
In some countries there has been an
increase since 1914, but from the re-
ports of the International Institute of
Agriculture and also Of the Food Adj
ministration the countries which re-
port increases are outnumbered by
those whose sheep raising declined.
The Canadian Food Board places
the probable decrease in sheep in
Europe alone in excess of Sd millions.
That is considerably higher than
other estimates, but it is fairly safe
to conclude that at the time he armis-
ice was signed there were fewer sheep
in the world by many millions than
when Belgium was invaded

sells by Auction.
Many Of 200 That Have outIIved Use
fuiness Hold High Place in
Naval History.

(; London.-Nearly 200 warships o.
|, the British navy, most OF which have
| Outlived their usefulness, are to be
sold to the highest bidder as soon as
| they can be cleared of their guns, etc
| Among the vessels to be disposed of
| are several which have high place
| in naval history and around which
hovers an intense sentimental interest.
A somewhat similar step was taken
by the admiralty in 1904, when large
number of obsolete vessels were dis
posed of. At that time great hue and
cry was raised, as many persons feared
that the strength Of the navy would be
seriously impaired. But, as a matter
of fact, the sale of the ships resulted
in making the navy stronger than ever
and the coming sale is expected to
have a similar effect.
The removal of obsolete vessels in
1904 had a two-fold purpose, and in
both respects was justified by the war.
1t set free the personnel needed to
start the nucleus crew system, and
placed out of commission ships which

fighting efficiency for the cost of their
upkeep.
Widespread interest will be aroused
by the revelation of the names of ships
to be removed from service Senti-
mental interest in his majesty's ships
of war is strong, amounting almost to
reverence, evoked by such an ancient
monument as Nelson's Victory.
Among the ships now to be dis
posed of are many which have been
brought prominently before the public
eve. Several have flown the flags Of
distinguished officers, and not few
have made records in connection with
the war.
More. than 100 destroyers, compris-
ing the "A" to "F' classes, are now
classed as noneffective, and 81 OF
them, including 81 for immediate dis
posal, appeared in the list Of April 9.
There will soon therefore, be no de-
stroyers in the navy launched before
1909. All the torpedo boats, except
the 30 turbine-driven boats Of the
coastal type built in 10000, are be-
ing cleared off, and 46 are in the list.
Perhaps the most interesting unit Of
this group is torpedo boat No. O70, /
which in the naval maneuvers was
commanded by King George. then a
lieutenant in the navy.

THIS IS WHY YOU THIRST
Relative Drying of Mucosa Of Mouth
and Pharynx Is Pre-Eminent
Factor.

Cambridge, Mass. Thirst is q
purely local phenomenon" according
to Dr. w. B. Cannon of Harvard.
And that's not all. Listen
"The pre-eminent factor is the rela-
tive drying Of the mucosa OF the
mouth and pharynx. This may result
from excessive use of the passage for
breathing, as in prolonged speaking
or singing, or may be caused by de-
ficient saiivary secretion"
Doctor Cannon says the latter cOndi-
tion represents true thirst, dependent
on the fact that the salivary glands
which keep the buccal and pharyngeal
mucosa moist require water for their
proper functiOning.

Loss of Appetite

AS general rule there is nothing
serious about loss of appetite, and if
you skip meal or only eat two meals
a day for few days you will soon
have relish for your meals when
meal time comes. Bear in mind that
at least five hours should always
eapse between meals so as to give
the food ample time to digest and the
stomach period of rest before sec
ond meal is taken. Then if you eat no
more than you crave and take rea-
sonable amount of outdoor exercise
every day you will not need to worry
about your appetite When the loss
of appetite is caused by constipation
as is often the case, that should be
corrected at once. A dose of Cham
berlain's tablets will do it.
