31S Women Delegates at Frisco
Convention,

San Francisco, Cal, June 26.-With
the compilation OF the full roll, show
ing the extent OF their participation
in the national convention, Demo-
cratic women felt today that they had
power ant equal responsibility with
ample reason to crow over their Re
publican sisters. Not only has the
National Committee agreed to give
them equal representation, equal
power and equal responsibility with
men, an agreement that probably will
be ratified by the convention without
serious opposition, but the conven-
ton itself will show an impressive
feminine representation. In contrast
to the handful of women mustered at
Chicago as delegates and alternates
at the late Republican conclave, there
will be here, according to the Ma
tional Committees list, al delegates
at large, g district delegates, SO al
ternates at large and los district al
ternates, a total of 3o8. Attention is
called by the women themselves to
the character as we'll as the numeri-
cal strength of their representation.
Many of the delegates and alternates
have attained national regulations
through social, educational or club
work, and others are fast making
! themselves known in their own
states.

A FAMILY
 MEDICINE
h Her Mothers Home, Says 1his Georgia Lady, Resardins Black Draught. Relief From Head
 ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold, Ga.- Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: "I am a user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact. 1t was one of our family medicines. Also in my mothers home, when was child. When any of us child ren complained of headache. usually caused by constipation, she gave us . dose of Black-Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted we'll, and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without it., for it certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just dose of Black Draught when not % well saves . lot of days in bed."
 Thedford's Black-Draught has beer Tn use for many years in the treat ment of stomach. liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which 1t now enjoys Is proof of it's merit.
 If your liver is not doing it's duty. you will suffer from such disagree. able symptoms as headache, bilious ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something Is dons. serious trouble may result
 Thedford's Black-D -Draught has been found valuable remedy for these troubles. It Is purely vegetable, and lcts in . prompt and natural way, regulating the liver to it's proper functions and cleansing the bowels of )mpurities. Try 1t. Insist on Thed- lords the original and genuine. H n

FROM ARKANSAS BANKER
Spicy Items about AslldOWn Banks from Arkansas Banker.

The following bank gossip was clip ped tronl the Arkansas Banker about our local banks and bankers:
 The Arkansas banking fraternity is bemoaning the loss of friend E. C. Payne, formerly cashier of the Ark ansas State Bank, Ashdown. Recent ly removed to Shreveport, La, where he is one of the organizers and cashier of the new Exchange National.
 q feel sure that we have won derful bank here," writes MT. Payne. "In fact success of the bank is already assured We are'capitalized at $1O0,OOO and already have deposits of nearly $100,000, and are now contemplating | the increase of our capital stock. II regret very much to leave Arkan- sas on account of the many good good friends l have, especially in Lit tie Rock and TeXarkana."
 f"Then Payne tipped us off to the fact that he would like to dispose of his block of stock in the AshGown in- stitution, so we promptly passed the tip on to A. E. Waters, cashier Securi- ty Bank, Shawnee, Okla, who has told us he wanted to come back to old Ark ansas.
 Results: Waters now has control ling interest in the Arkansas State Bank, Ashdown, and has secured J. l.. Martin as his cashier.
 Martin, for number of years, has been assistant cashier of the First National Bank of Ashdown. He is a capable banker and knows his town and county thoroughly.
 And so it goes. In this little mat ter the association office has been of helpful service to three good friends,
 But we suspect we'll have to make peace in some way with friend R. M. Bone, cashier of the Ashdown First National, for being the innocent and indirect cause of his losing Martin for we know how much he thought Of him, Forgive us R. M"
 Waters and Martin are enthusiastic over the future of their new love and say that in the first IA days with their new work deposits have increased $6O, ,165 O8, which looks mighty good to them.
