A distant friend fs one you can’t
"touch." __________
Friendship is nursed on the milk
of human kindness.
Abuse blackens both the giver
and the receiver.
It's never to late for our enemies
to mend their ways.
As long as memory remains the
dead past is never buried.
This is a mighty small world for
the man who is afraid of being
caught._
Why don't they use rubber in
stead of silk thread in our paper
money? _
The person who tries to act rich
is poor to the finer qualities of
manhood.
The secret of some men's popu
larity is that they never try to force
'A w. you.,__ _ .... .. ..
If folks didn’t have so much
money, the cost of living wouldn’t
be so high.
Brotherly love is more perfectly
exemplified by performance than
by profession.
Churches are members of the
volunteer fire department they
save from fire.
Some folks have a mistaken idea
that a guaranty improves the qual
ity of an article.
The person with the most confi
dence in himself has the most con
findence in others.
When a man is being flattered,
he flatters himself by trying to be
lieve that it is deserved.
Every one believes in home rule
- it's on the question of rulers that
the disagreement occurs.
Things would be mighty dull in
this old world, if some were not
willing to do more than their share.
There are lots of people who
could afford to own automobiles
who feel that they couldn’t afford
to run them.
Some folks imagine they are im
pressing you with ..heir strict at
tention to duty when they are
merely making grouches of them
selves. _
The only person who can con
vince folks that he really loves his
enemies is the one who has become
so attached to his bad habits that
he can’t quit.
It’s sometimes well not to start
out so far ahead of others that you
will be fagged out when they start
and get left behind but it is just
as fatal to wait so long that you
w*il be in ihe rear guard to start.

A new steel bridge was recently
built across the Missouri river near
Omaha. Nebr. A temporary found
dation was first erected by the side
of the old structure and on this the
new bridge was assembled. Then
when everything was ready five
hoisting engines equipped with
block and tackle lifted the old
bridge out of the way and placed
the new one in its p'ace. The
whole operation took about 1 5 min
utes and trains were running over
the new bridge an hour afterward.
Influenza
“No one who has not had Influenza can realize the suffering
it causes or how it defies treatment. I know of nothing that will
give such prompt relief as Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, for
when it is taken the pain in the chest disappears, the fever sub
sides and the whole body becomes more comfortable.
Then again, the after effects of Influenza are often even more
distressing than the disease itself, but they can be avoided if
you use
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
Though the greatest danger from this disease is Pneumonia,
I have never known a single case of Influenza to result in it when
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy was freely given. The persistent
cough that frequently follows Influenza can be relieved by
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and should not be allowed to
run on until it becomes troublesome.’’

Where cotton and corn are the
main crops grown, the cultivated
fields should be equally divided,
; one-half of them being planted to
corn and peas or corn and velvet
beans, and the other half to cotton,
crimson clover being planted in the
; cotton middles in the fall to be
| plowed under for corn the following
! spring. Such a simple two-year
rotation gives us a legume crop ev
ery year on every cultivated acre,
and, with the use of some phos
phoric acid and potash in certain
sections, will mean better lands
and bigger and more profitable
crops.—The Progressive Farmer.
Three Sessions of Congress.
Under a bill introduced by Rep
resentative McArthur of Oregon,
the present system whereby a new
congress does not regularly meet
till 15 months after it is elected
would be abolished. There would
be three regular sessions of con
gress, in place of the present two.
The new congress elected in No
vember would convene on the first
Monday following the 4th of
March, instead of waiting till De
cember. The second session would
begin on the first Monday in Oc
tober, and the third on the first
Monday in December of the follow
ing year. This would give con
gress the additional time it needs
to dispose of the growing mass of
legislature.

Rural Carrier Examination
The United States Civil Service
Commission has announced an ex
amination for the County of Union,
Arkansas, to be held at El Dorado
at 8:30 a. m., on February 10,
1917, to fill the position of rural
carrier at El Dorado and Huttig,
and vacancies that may later occur
on rural routes from other post
offices in the above-mentioned
county. The examination will be
open only to male citizens who are
actually domiciled in the territory
of the postoffice in the county and
who meet the other requirements
set forth in Form 1977. This
form and application blanks may
be obtained from the offices men
tioned above or from the United
States Civil Service Commission at
Washington. D. C. Applications
should be forwarded to the Com

est practicable date.
Six Year Term.
Senator Shaford of Colorado has
submitted a proposed constitution
al amendment abolishing the elec
toral college, making the president
ial term six years and prohibiting
any president from serving a sec
ond term, no matter how plausible
the excuse may be. He would not
do away with the electors, but the
electoral votes would be canvassed
by congress direct, without the
fuss of going through the state
governments. Senator Thompson
of Kansas and Senator Gronno of
North Dakota also have amend
ment propositions in, to get rid of
the electoral farce altogether and
have the president chosen by direct
popular vote.

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly

Surfaces of the System thereby de
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting na
ture in doing its work. The proprie
tors have po much faith in the curative
powers of Hall's Catarrh Cure that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.
