Ex-Senator Janies K. Jones is
being mentioned as a probable
candidate for governor.
No man since the formation of
Arkansas lias ever been elected
governor the third time.
Judge Carroll D. Wood of the
stal e supreme court has announced
as a candidate for governor.
Let’s go to work and have the
biggest Fourth of July celebration
ever had in Newark. What say you?
Randolph county politicians seem
to be of the “early bird” variety.
One of them has already announc
ed as a candidate for sheriff.
Eight thousand barbers in Chi
cago are expected to go on a strike

Morrilton, who was in the race for
governor four years ago, has an

candidate. With Mr. Vandventcr,
Judge Wood and another man or

Arkansas is not the only part of

Advice For Jeff.
The .Jonesboro Enterprise, an
ardent supporter of Governor
Davis heretofore says: “The Enter
prise does not believe that the
Democracy of Arkansas want Gov
ernor Davis for a third term and
we say this in no spirit of abuse or
contempt. But he is not har
monious, and besides it is not cus
tomary to elect men to third terms
in this country. If it is a vindica
tion he seeks—could he not with
more surety obtain it in the courts?
If it’s honor he seeks, he has al
ready had that—is it money he
seeks, then let him buy a country
newpaper somewhere and run it,
and the dollars will deluge him.
He has no business with a third
term.
Worst of all Experienes.
(’an anything be worse than to
feel that every minute will be
your last. Such was the experience
of Mrs. S. H. Newson, Decatur,
Ala. “ For three years” she writes,
“I endured insufferable pain from
indigestion, stomach and bowel
trouble. Death seemed inevitable
when doctors and all remedies
failed. At length I was induced to
try Electric Bitters and the result
was miraculous. I improved at
once and now I’m completely re
covered. For liver, kidney, stom
ach and bowel troubles Electric

A Day at Mount Zion.
Editor Newark Journal.
On the 30th of May, as a token
of love and respect for our de
parted loved ones, a number of
friends and relatives met at Mount
Zion graveyard for the purpose of
cleaning off and decorating the
graves. We expected a large
crowd that day, but owing to the
inclemency of the weather and
some sickness in the coinmunty,
we did not have a large attendance.
YVe are sorry to say that the peo
ple of this community have grown
a little careless in taking care of
the graveyard, but we hope more
interest will betaken in the future.
\\ e cleared olf the graves by noon,
then the good ladies prepared din
ner and we enjoyed a hearty meal.
After dinner we proceeded to
i round off and decorate the graves,
but was hindered by the rain, so
we did but little effective work
This old graveyard is about a half
century old. YVe have l*een in
I lorined that the first grave was
[dug there about the year 1850.
| The house was built about 1868.
| There had been a house there be
1 fore the present one was built, but
I cannot say when it was built;
both of them were used for church
and school purposes.
YY'hile dining under the shade of
the trees there last Saturday 1 re
called the fact that the same trees
had shaded many of us when we
were children going to school. YYre
don’t know who of us will fail to
be there next year.
Old Mount Zion at one time was
the center of attraction in this part
of the country. It was, as we
commonly say, the stamping
ground of my boyhood days. The
old house is almost decayed, but
the old spring there still bubbles

away, winter and summer, and
never falters. I was born within
a few hundred yards of this old
spring and lived there until I was
a full-grown man. I love to re
call pleasant passages of thought
that flashed across my mind when
I would steal away, and for hours
at a time, would lounge on the
grassy bank of this little stream
that babbled me to sleep in boy
hood. Dear old stream, unchang
ing, unfaltering, I love you as I
love a friend!
But when I behold myself in tho
glass I don’t see the youth that
was then, but a man whose hair is
streaked with gray. Then we are
made to exclaim, with the old poet,
“Oh, give me back my youthful
days!”
And when I think of the bright
faced boys and the rosy cheeked
girls that were my companions, I
ask, “Where are they?” Some of •
them aro here to answer roll call; t
some are gone to different, parts of j
the country; many of them are f
scattered over tho pine hills of i
East Texas; and many of them, 1
whose graves wo meet annually to i
decorate, have crossed over the .«
dreaded stream. We realize the 1
fact that, with many of us, the day 11
of life is far s|>ent and soon the t
sun will set beyond the Western f
hills never to rise on us again. 1

keen suffering with my heart. Breathing

There are many symptoms of heart disease, .
which so closely resemble those of more com- 1
non nervous disorders as to frequently mis- '
lead the attending physician. Often in cases 1
of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or j
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
may be those of weakened nerves, as tired t

easily excitable and apt to worry without ^

Gray Hair
“I have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor
for over thirty years. It has kept j
my scalp free from dandruff and
has prevented my hair from turn
ing gray.”—Mrs. F. A. Soule,
Billings, Mont.
There is this peculiar
thing about Ayer’s Hair
Vigor—it is a hair food,
not a dye. Your hair does
not suddenly turn black,
look dead and lifeless.
But gradually the old color
comes back,—all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
The hair stops falling, too.

Suit Over a Cow
One of the hardest fought legal
battles that has occurred in local
court circles in some time took j
place Monday before Squire Dren- y
nen. The bone of contention was i
a young cow, the ownership of
which was claimed by John Adams.
W. T. Magness disputed Adams'
claim to the cow and thus the suit j
was brought about. There were 23 j
witnesses in the case and the trial
consumed the entire day; in fact it
was about 7 o'clock when the jur\
retired. Attorney S. A. Moore j
represented Adams while Judge h
M. L. Arnold was attorney fori
Magness and a hard fight was
made, by the attorneys on both
sides. The jury returned a verdict!
in favor of Adams.
LOOK OUT

An epidemic of Malaria is sure to fol

which have prevailed all over the

will develope to an alarming extent.
General health conditions will be bad;
every precaution should be taken.
The System Meet Especially Be For

A trial of fifty years has demonstrat
ed that for this emergency, Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic has no equal. Iron is
the fighting element in the blood, aud
the kind of iron supplied by Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic is just the kind the
system requires to successfully combat!
malarial conditions. Don't wait until
you are attacked. Take it now and for
tify yourself; it is an absolute safeguard
and, at the same time, it is the best
tonic and invigorant for the entire sys
tem. On the other hand, quinine dis
turbs the system and its cumulative
poison begets greater physical troubles
than those it is employed to remedy. |

OVERWHELMING
EVIDENCE
There are four piano manufacturers in nhe United States 33
~ !hkI only four, who have made 100,000 pianos each. The 33
~ houses which are now proudly celebrating this achievement 33
E are theChickering, the Fischer, the Steinway and the Kimball. 3
E It will no doubt be of interest to know the length of 33
E time it has taken each of these distinguished companies to 33
EE produce 100,000 pianos, which is as follows : 33
E The Chickering, 80 Years 33
The Fischer, 63 Years
E The Stein way, 50 Years -3
The Kimball, 20 Years
E Of these companies the Kimball is the only organ manu- 33
E fncturer, and in addition to the pianos has also made more 33
E than 250.000 reed organs and 4,400 large pipe organs. 32
E In twenty years time, therefore, the Kimball Company 33
E has far outstripped all other makers in output in this or any 33
■3: other country. 33
EE This wonderful achievement, when coupled with the 33
EE artistic merit of the Kimball, as attested by so large a num- 33
HE ber of great artists and musicians of Europe and Ameiica, E3
EE completes a record of facts which is indisputable, and makes 33
