0klabonan Praises Black-Drsug If, Having Used It ''Can Safely
 Say for 50 Years.' D

Grandfield, Okla.-One of the best known farmers of Tilman County, Mir. q. w. Tisdale, who owns and manages . wagon yard here, says:
 "I have used Thedford's Black Draught-I believe can safely say for fifty years.
 "I was born and reared in Texas, Freestone County, sixty-four years ago. I have been married forty-four years. My father used Black Draught before ! was married, and gave it to us :. |.
 For forty-four years of my married life, 1t has had a place on our medi- cine shelf. and is the only laxative. or Hver medicine, we use. We use 1t for torpid liver. sour stomach. head ache, indigestion I don't think we could get along without 1t, knowing what 1t has done for us. and the money 1t has saved. 1t is just as good and re- liable today as 1t was when we began Its use. My boys use 1t and they are satisfied it's the best liver medicine they have over used"
 Thedford's Black -Draught Is purely vegetable, not disagreeablc to take and acts in a prompt and natural way.
 So many thousands of persons have been benefited by the 'se of Thedford s -Draught, you should have no hesitancy in trying this valuable old well-established remedy. for most liver and stomach disorders. NC139b.

REPORT ON CLINTON
 TODAMASCUS ROAD HIGHWAY IN LITIGATION
Important Link in State Road From Conway Awaits Court Decision
 to Resume Construction.

Approximately $90,000 has been eX
 pended for grading, culverts an l bridges in the construction of the 1 Clinton and Damascus highway, Dy Road Improvement District No. o1 Van Buren county, according to q report published in this weeks Na~ Buren County Democrat. Completion of the road, according to the Clinton paper, awaits the settlement of liti- gation pending in the chancery court of Van Buren county, which is expect ed to come up for hearing in April.
 The Clinton-D Damascus road is an important link in the state highway connecting Little Rock with the Mis- souri state line at Mammoth Spring, branching off from the Little Rock Fort Smith highway at Conway and including the Conway Damascus high way now under construction. This route has been designated as one of the primary highways by the state highway commission
 Regarding the report the Democrat says this week:
 Elsewhere is presented as a matter of general information to readers detailed report of the total receipts and disbursements of Road Improve ment District No. 3, the Clinton-Da- mascus highway. As generally known this road is in an uncompleted con- dition, construction work being discon tlnued Tn pursuance of a court in. junction granted at the request of in terested citizens, alleging mismanage- ment and excessive ccets in it's con- struction.
 Final disposition of this injunction IS expected to be made at the ensuing April term of chancery court, but what that action will be is not within our providence to know. This much IS certain-should the road be aban- doned and it's affairs ordered wound up taxpayers will have little to show Tor money expended. Because of gaps between sections worked the road can not be travelled as a through line and therefore serves but little purpose.
 should the injunction be dissolved and the commissioners left free to complete the work it IS expected that substantial state aid will be receive l slnee the state highway has designat- ed It as primary state road. cor. meeting at Damascus with the Cor. wa yroad and forming link in a way road and forming link in through Clinton to the state line"

Visitors Put Up Weird Exhibition and Lose, B to 5-Meet
 Hendrix Tonight

College of the Ozarks playing State Normal last night on the Hen dirk indoor court, put up a weird ex hibition of basketball, and lost 35 to 5. The visitors apparently had de- veloped their defense at the expense of offense, and fewer than ten at tempts were made at baskets from the field. Compared with this, the NormaPs court men showed an incli- nation to shoot at the basket from Il angles at any time, and their floor work broke through but did not break down the stubborn defense of the visitors.
 Hendrix will meet College of the Ozarks tonight at 7:l5 on the indoor court. Conway high school and the Hendrix seconds will play as an open CT and between halves. Conway high will play Russellville next Friday, it is announced
 Both Hendrix and the State Nor maj have unbroken records so far this season. Hendrix has twice de- feated Henderson-Brown and has tanned Union University of Tennes- see. State Normal has taken the measure of the Ozarks twice, Rus sellville AggIes once and Pottsville ! high school once.
