Kind Words as Valuable Asset
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| 1t is the person who keeps kind
words in circulation. who gives them
| out whenever he finds an opportunity
| to do SO, who ladiates a beautiful
spirit. who finds himself rich in
| friends and I'm the love Of his family
and all those who come in contact
with him.
Kind Words VS.. F'lattery.
Kind words should not be confused
with fiattery. The former is sincere,
the latter is insincere. The first is
pure gold, the second is but counter
felt Kind words may be likened to
money wisely spent at the right time
and for the right purpose, given in
accord with ones income, often with
out any idea of returns. when the
money goes to some one in need,
Flattering words would then repre-
sent money put to poor use as in the
case of spcndthrift. Discrimination
bot in the use of words and of coins
should he exercised II is then that
kind words are like pure gold, wisely
spent.
\ Family Asset.
The wife who sends her husband
out to work in the morning with
kind words at parting is helping him
TO do a good days work, for it is the
light heart that accomplishes most.
The husband who leaves home for
work with kind words on his lips for
his wife and family administers as
fine a tonic as q doctor could pre-
scribe. The family is eXhilarated, and
goes about the homeIy tasks or the
school life with renewed energy. Kind
words react subtly in a family to help
out the finances by increasing the
ability to do things. They make it
possible to accomplish more with less
expenditure of energy, and without
the dragging WEAKNESS of labor done
with spirits low. All too often low
spirits reduce vitality and the work
ing capacity of individuals, and such
conditions court illness.
Social Currency.
Kind words to ones friends and as
sociateS put them in the good humor
to speak kind words to others, and so
the benefit is kept in circulation.
There is no measurement for the
power that kind words have in raising
peoples spirits; in reassuring them
that they have good qualities that
should be cultivated even more assid-
uously; in strengthening anothers
power of accomplishments; for kind
words are so encouraging that they
make one able to battle forcefully
with unfortunate circumstances and
adverse conditions.
Coins That Every One Has.
Best of all is the reflection that
kind words are present in every ones
Every person has them
in this bank of his mind, to spend
and thereby do good with and gain
interest. It is indeed true that kind
words return to the giver with COM
pound interest. They are a power
for good, for happiness, for success.

BY ELLEN ]. .BUCKLAND
Reg tskEtkf NAH5S

ALL the problems OF old-tirne
n hygienic ways have recently
been ended, largely because of a
new way called KOTEX.
" Kotex discards as easily as tis-
, sue. Thus no laundry, no em-
barrassment of disposal.
Being S times as absorbent as
ordinary cotton pads" you wear
lightest gowns and frocks without
slightest fear. Deodorizes, too, thus
ending all fear of offense.
Obtain at any store without
embarrassment simply by saying
"KOTEX." Many stores have it
already wrapped on counters, ready
for you to pick up and take along
without even asking for it.
Try today and you'll never again
risk the uncertainty of old ways.

Be sure you get the genuine. Only

LITTLE. ROCK, Ark, May 5.-The
sight of militiamen standing guard on
important street corners, win hAed
bayonets, greeted residents OF Little
Rock today. following a night of dis
order. during which a negro was
1ynched, his body dragged through the
business section and burned upon a
funeral pyre while several thousand
persons looked on.
Fear of additional serious racial
trouble caused Gov. Martineau TO or

all-night patrol duty. He hurried here
on a special train from Van Buren,,
where yesterday he attended straw

By midnight, after hundreds of
armed men had paraded the streets III
automobiles. firing Volley after volley
of shots into the air, the Nauonal
Guard had virtually cleared the
streets and gained control of the SIT
uation.
The governor acted when informed
that local authorities were standing
, by helpless, while angry men invaded
a negro quarter, and general out
break of violence was threatened.
The negro lynched was John Carter,
3S, He was said to have admitted
that he attacked two white women
early yesterday.
One of the women. Miss Glennie
Stewart. identified him and saw him
killed. Her mother, Mrs. B. +. Stewart,
was in a hospital suffering from in
1Lries inflicted by the negro with an
iron bar. Carter had attacked them
after accosting them as they rode
along the road near the city in a
wagon.
The mob, together with posses of of.
GERS, pursued Carter into a forest and
captured him. The mob, numbering
several hundred persons, then took
charge of the negro, hanged him from
a telephone pole, riddled the body with
bullets, cut it down and tied it behind
an automobile, which dragged it
through the principal business thor
oughfares.
It later was saturated with gasoline
and burned in a street bordering on
tn negro section.
The lynching of Carter followed
