SHOOTS FORMER WIFE
THEN KILLS HIMSELF
JEALOUSY BELIEVED TO HAVE
CAUSED ACT OF FARMER
NEAR BLYTHEVILLE
Blytheville, May 2.—Joseph T.
Boyd, well known farmer of North
Sawba township, late this afternoon
went to the home of his divorce!
wife, widow of Walter Ellison, and
sent a revolver bullet through hei
breast an 1 two more through her
back, killing her instantly.
Boyd walked about a mile from the
scene of the homicide, sat down ' n
the edge of a ditch and fired a bul
let from the same revolver through
his own heart.
Both bodies were brought to Bly
theville. Jealousy of the woman who
divorced him is believed to have been
the cause for the double killing.

Newark Boy Writes
Letter From France
Mrs. D. vV. Boswell is in receipt
of the following letter from her son
George, who is in the military service
in France.
Chiumont, France, Apr. 17.
Dear Homefolks.—How are you ail
by now ? Fine, I hope. 1 am O. K.
except sleepy. Don't know hardly
what to write about but thought I
would write and say 1 am well.
The weather has been something
awful since 1 wrote you last. Rain
ing, with some snow every day. I
thought it was about time for spring,
but guess not. Well, I am ahead of
the game some this month. I had
nearly three months pay coming, but
money isn’t hardly worth the truoble
of carrying, as I hardly ever buy any
thing. Guess you think something
wrong, but when a fellow gets cloth
es, eats and candies, why worry. Also
1 forgot to say plenty of work. One
hour of drill every mroning, and
about one day out of five fatigue.
The rest . < guard duty, two hours
on and four off.
The latest is that we go to Belgium
soon. My own opinion is that we
start for home the last of May. All
leaves are cout out for the company
after the 15th of May, is another
rumor.
1 hear they are making sovernirs
in the States. I don’t doubt it, as
they are making them here.
Your loving son,
Private GEORGE A. BOSWELL

criminating in the Selection *
of Pianos to Sell to YOU
Ever since 1853 we have been
buying and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball Hoi- ft
lenberg, Hallet & Davis, Apol- f
lo, Hinze and Whitney—and so
we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot
fail to please.

SOME POSSIBILITIES TO THINK OF
WHEN VICTORY SALESMAN
APPROACHES YOU
DO A LITTLE SUPPOSING
Suppose the Kaiser Were DLtntlni.
Peace at Paris at This
Time.
When the Victory Loan sollelto.
looks you up during the taa:pa ;,u yo.
might think of the follow!:. ;> ib.ll
ties, oi these things that migut hun
happened in the war.
Suppose for just a minute that th
Prussian guard had run over th
American marines at Chateau!Tier;.
and Beileau Wood. That they ha
reached Paris and dictated the term
of peace.
Suppose it were von Hel.e;lch an.
von Barnstorff and Emperor.-, w i ae. i
Charles and Ferdinand who v. re :.
Pan today dictating the terms arour.
thi peace table.
If so, would nor*h France Le fro
of the Hun? Would King Albert !.
bark in Brussels helping his count:,
to get started again?
Would Rumania hi* n.-mirPv stand.
off the Bolshevik:, reorganizing iist-h
in its ruins and making a place for it
self in the near ea.~.. ?
IP'the Hun had won would broke;
Serbia be gathering Imr people from
Greece, from Corfu, from Ita! .:
islands and French territories a:.t
coming back into devastation that It
worse than Belgium at its worst?
Would Italy be brin ing back to
Venice the art treasures that- have
long been the marvels of the world.
Would France be jubilating over ti.
return of Alsace-Lorraine? Would
England's battle fleet be floating ovi
harbors tilled with German subma
rines?
If the llun had won there would be
no allied troops on the Rhine. Bui
tht re would be hundreds of thousand
of allied prisoners slaving under llun
taskmasters.
Would Russia be free to carry out
whatever there is in the myriad mind
of that maddened country? Would
America be talking after-the-war prob
lenis and planning to go out after for
eign trade and insure American pros
perity for a generation?
Wouldn’t it be more likely that we
would be preparing to raise $40,0u0,
000,000 indemnity, as the kaiser told
us we would after the war? Wouldn’t
we be preparing as feverishly as wo
could to fight another and a more ter
rible and probably a losing war just
as soon as we possibly could?
Would the whole world be watching
the peace table with the hopeful In
terest and the sense of freedom it
now has? Would there be any rejoicing
anywhere in all the world today except
In Hun Land?
Do you think the kaiser on the day
of victory would have forgotten his
plans and dreams of a life-time for
world domination? Not if that person
had retained his mind, he would not
havn fnrtrntfpn
Not Time to Forget.
We haven’t come to a time yet when
we can afford to forget that the kaiser
had planned a snug little earth all his
own, which should be his to do as he
pleased with. He hoped to live many
years and watch the once free peoples
of the world carrying their contribu
tions and taxes, their ransom money
and their indemnities to his doors.
It cost the allies something to escape
all this. It cost untold lives, a world
of suffering, the shadow of sorrow
for years and about $lo0,000,000,000 in
money to escape the fate that Kaiser
Wilhelm had planned for them.
But it was worth all it cost to es
cape the net of the conqueror. Of
course, we haven’t finished paying yet
nor will we for many a long year.
Uncle Sam will have to add a few bil
lions more to his part of the cost, and
that is the reason for the Victory Lib
erty Loan.
If you want to know who la re
sponsible for this Fifth Loan, simply
turn your thoughts to the kaiser. He
started it all over four years ago and
the world has long since adjudged him
as the criminal.
Remember Just the same that the
Independence of America and your own
personal freedom are mighty cheap at
the price you are paying even if you
ahould put every dollar you have on
earth into the Victory Liberty Loan.
We can be thankful that here in
America we have escaped with a slight
blood toll. Over in Europe they have
bought loan on loan, one after an
other, till the count was well nigh lost
end they number their dead by hun
dreds and thousands where we number
ours by tens.
Digging in and raising a Liberty
Loan twice as big as the Victory Loan
ought to be a high privilege and a
thing of ease and quickness compared
with what the battered allies who
•tood by us have undergone.
Labor’s hosts will rally to the sup
port of the Victory Liberty Loan in
the usual solid array. The reconstruc
tion period is quite as important as the
periods of preparation and battle. On
the quickness and thoroughness of le
constructlon our prosperity depends.
The Victory Loan will hasten the re
turn of normal good times.
Only One Way to Get
Roads in This Country
- r
This country will come out of the j
kinks and put on new life when we
get good roads here, and it will not
move many steps forward until that
day comes. No one need be deceived
on that point. We can have good
roads, or we can put up with the
roads we have. No god road is going
to fall from the skies already made,
and the bad roads will not escape
from us against our will.—Sharp
County Record.

Velvet is a friendly tobacco in the
truest sense, because, like friendship,
it has been allowed to ripen natur
ally—nothing forced or unnatural.
There are “hurry up” ways with tobacco but
only patient ageing (two years in wooden hogs
heads) can bring cut the mellowness that sets
Velvet apart.

Velvet s nature-aped mildness
