thrilling exhibition staged by the two

Mir. Harve Smith of Haileyville, Okla, tried various chill tonics, but found nothing that equalled Swamp Chill and Fever Tonic. He says this famous remedy never failed to cure his chills.
 Thousands of others who once suffered with malaria, ague and similar ailments praise Swamp Chill Tonic as strongly as MT. Smith. For 20 years it has been the one never-failing remedy.
 Swamp Chill Tonic acts quickly and surely. h seldom takes more than three days to break up chills. And no purgative has to be taken with it-the medicine itself acts gently and agneeably upon the liv- CT and bowels

fashioned almanacs that used to be so common? It will not be as easy as you imagine. It used to be thai every drug store counter was GOV. cred with them and all you had to dc was just to help yourself. Not SC now. Comparatively few of them are being printed, probably not more than quarter of the number for merly. The high cost of paper has something do with it, and so has the action of the Federal govern ment in the strirt enforcement of the National Prohibition Act against the manufacture of certain medi- cines which were largely composed of alcahol. These manufacturers were among the most popular of the almanac publishers. But they have been forced to change their formulas, and the radical changes made in their business have an many instances induced them to discon- tinue their almanacs. Net more than half a dozen different alma macs can be feWnd in Little Rock today.

 The decision of the Supreme Court by which one hundred acts of the regular session of the 1919 legislature were sustained was one of the closest in the history of that tribunal. It could not have been closer without being the other way. The opinion was delivered by Jus tices Humphreys and Wood, being written by Justice Humphreys. Jus tice Smith concurred in the judg- ment but not in the process of reas- oning by which they arrived at their decision. Chief Justice Me-

 The opinion of the majority of the Court was that, there being no evidence to the contrary, the bills were presented to the governor with in the twenty days, the presump tion being that the Enrolling Com mittee had done it's duty. At the expiration of twenty days the bills would have become acts without his signature. The fact that he had affixed his signature on the twenty third day after adjournment of the legislature could not have added to or taken from the validity of the bills. Had there been positive evi- dence that the bills were not pre- sented until after the expiration of the twenty days, the result might have been different.
 This decision undoubtedly avert ed the necessity of calling another session of the Legislature. The governor had made no statement as to his intentions in the premises, but it was recognized that if one hundred acts of the regular ses- sion had been invalidated, no other course could have been open but to call a session to re-enact the laws under which millions of dol lars are being expended. And it is not at all probable that the peo- pie would have looked upon another extra session with unalloyed approv- al 1t is well that it is as it is.

He said that such an investigation would necessarily have to cover very wide scope and in- clude many things No staten ent has been forthcoming from ahe grand jnry, and it is not known what it proposes to do.

 When the matter of disbanding the organization was brought before the meeting the discussion became gener- al and it was finally decided that as the club had been doing well for sev- eral years past it would he the best thing if the members would put their shoulders to the wheel and keep the club from dropping out of activity.
