When it comes to being a run
ner, what’s the matter with Earle
Hodges? __________
The Journal is always ready to
say a good word for the man who
is trying to help put Newark on I
the map. _
Now that the political battle is
over, let’s go to work to build up
Newark and make it a better town
to live in._
As a mudslinger and a liar, there 1
is probably not a paper in the en
tire state that can equal the Lee
County Courier.
Evidently the predicted Camp- <

somewhere along the proposed <
line of the Alaskan railroad.—Cal- !

Very few of us always get just 1
the things we want in this world, |
and it is often the case that the
kindly consideration of our neigh- .
bors keeps us from getting just ^
what we deserve.
The Journal regrets to note the
defeat of Editor T. D. Harris of '
the Marked Tree Gazette for coun
ty clerk of Poinsett county. But,
then, his election to office might
have spoiled a good newspaper
man. _
Earle W. Hodges carried 72 out
of 75 counties in the state, in spite
of the slanderous fight made on
him by his opponent. Hodges is a
clean and deserving young man
and is one of the coming politi
cians of Arkansas.
A prosperous community is
usually a desirable one in which
to live, because it offers its people
advantages and conveniences not
found in the less prosperous places.
It is therefore distinctly to the ad
vantage of every person in New

candidate for governor of Texas.
3atterson was once the South’s
greatest enemy to prohibition, but
since turning prohi he has prob
ibly done more effective work
igainst the whiskey traffic than
any man in the nation.
The election is over, the state
and county have been “saved,” so
now let us all get down to some
real work for the advancement
and the betterment of our com
munity. If every citizen of New
ark will work as hard for the up
building of the town as he has for
his favorite candidates, Newark
will grow and prosper as never
before.
A lazy man has no place in a
position of trust, and we never
heard of God honoring a man in
laziness. If David had been a lazy
office-holder we never would have
read the book of Psalms. Every
one who succeeds in any phase of
life must always keep going on.
The Lord helps those who help
thdmselves, but He isn’t going to
do anything for you if you can do
it for yourself.—Exchange.

WOMEN FIND THIS IS
BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Many Mothers and Wives Have
Learned That Dodson's Liver
Tone is a Fine Remedy for
Constipation.
The Newark Drug Co., will tell
you that it takes the women to
realize the merits of a new remedy
for constipation and billiousness
quickiy and surely, whether it is
for themselves or someone else in
their families.
There are today a great number
of households in which Dodson's
Liver Tone has come to take the
place of dangeraus calomel as well
as all other remedies for such
ailments and where an atmosphere
of health and happiness now I
prevails.
Dodson’s Liver Tonic is uncondi- j
tionally guaranteed by The New- i
rrk Drug Co., to be a safe liver !
remedy and regulator, absolutely |
aarmless and with no bad after
effects such as are liable with j |
ealomel. j I
Dodson’s is a pleasant-tasting |
vegetable liquid and clears the !
iching head and suffering body I
rvith no pain nor gripe.
So perfect a remedy has Dodson’s
Liver Tone proved to be that your
Iruggist will refund the purchase
Drice,50c, instantly without ques
tion if you are not thoroughly sat
sfied. They are authorized to do
so by Dobson, who doesn’t want
your money unless his remedy can
benefit you. Under such conditions
a trial would seem the part of
wisdom. (adv)

RE-WED AFTER 51 YEARS;
EACH WAS THOUGHT DEAD
After Separation of Half Cen
tury Man and Wife Marry
Corning, March 29.—Mrs. Diana
Reeves and Levy Cook, the form
er 69 and the latter 73 year s old,
yesterday were married a second
time. The ceremony marked the
reopening of a romance that be
gan .">1 years ago today when first
they were wred.
Soon after their former marriage
March 28, 1863, young Cook, then
22 years old, left his wife to seek
fortune and happiness for both in
the gold fields of California. He
remained indefinitely and when
ready to return to Arkansas heard
that his wife was dead. He later
remarried. Mrs. Cook heard also
that her husband lost his life in
the hazardous pursuit ot prospect
ing and she married another man.
Neither learned further concern
ing the other until a few months
ago.
Cook being informed that his
former wife was not dead, came
to Corning to investigate. He
found her much alive and resum
ed a romance broken off many
years before. Their second mar
riage yesterday followed.
