The Real Estate Man.
[continued from page 1.]
vestigates titles. lie furnishes
abstracts, writes deeds, and does
much other work that is necessary
in his line, that you are not in a
position to do. A prudent busi
ness man never has a piece of
property so valuable that he will
not sell. Sell your property when
you can get your price, and buy
and build again, t his is the way
to build up a town or country.
List your land with your local
real estate man. By doing that
much you help some any way, in
bringing about the prosperity
which is sure to come to Newark
in the future, if you will only help
us in getting its wonderful advan
tages before the world.
Let’s get out of this fogyism,
moss'backism or whatever “ism”
it is, and show the world what we
have. The real estate man cannot
do it for nothing, but all he asks
is for you to list your property for
sale. He will do th** rest.
A very prudent and intelligent
man, and one who has made a sue
ness in business remarked to nn
the other day that a “man win
would slight or refuse such an op
port-unity was like two boys, shut
ting themselves up in a r<>< m mi
swapping jackets all day" while
the busy world around them wa
moving along all the same, anc
they came out with the same oh
jackets. .Just so it has been witl
S this, our beloved Arkansas. We
have traded among ourselves. Lane
values are low. The world isjusi
beginning to hear of us. Let youi
local real estate man tell the work
what you have. List your prop
erty for sale. Make the best termi
te your dealer possible, and give
him time, and a chance to sell,
and he will do the rest.
Yours for business,
A. A. Henderson.
Obituary.
Mattie, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John Aldridge died Jan. i»0,
iffo-l. She was only 20 years of
age at the time of her death. Mat
tie had been in poor health foi
some time and God in his infinite
wisdom saw tit to relieve her of
her suffering. Grieve not sorrow
ing friends for our loss is only
temporary while hers is an eternal
gain. Just a few days in this
world of suffering then we will
join Mattie in her home and ours
above, where there will be no par
ting or tear-!. It seems hard tc
give up the sweetest and best, but
God knows best. If we could all
leave our sorrowing friends the
consolation that Mattie left hers
how much easier their grief would
l>e to bear. Mattie’s only regret
in dying was, she was sorry for
her parents they would he so lone
ly without her. We are not with
out hope, for we know she is wait
ing for us in our heavenly home.
Mattie was a true Christian girl.
To know her was to love her. She
leaves a father, mother, four sis
ters, a brother and a number of
sorrowing friends to mourn her
death. A Fki^xd.

Mr. II. Huggins of Melbourne,
Fla., writes: “My doctor tole me
I bad Consumption and nothing
could be done for me. I was giv-1
en up to die. The offer of a free'
trial bottle of I>r. King's New Dis
covery for Consumption, induced
me to try it. Results were start-1
ling. I am now on the road to re
covery and owe all to Dr. King’s
New Discovery. It surely saved
my life.’’ This great cure is guar

S. W. Clark today announces asj
a candidate for re-election as con
stable of Rig Bottom township.
Mr. Clark has made a good officer
and will likely be re-elected with-,
out opposition.
A. M. Edgar reports that in go
ing over his books he finds that
Ben Adams .Jr., has been the liv
ery stable’s best customer since it
was opened under his management
and says that if everybody patron
ized the stable like Ben it would
be a paying business.

Sick
Bleed
Feed pale girls on Scott’s
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why Scott’s
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
Scott’s Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in
taste.
Young women in their
“ teens ” are permanently cured
of the peculiar disease of the
blood which shows itself in
paleness, weakness and nervous
ness, by regular treatment
with Scott’s Emulsion.
It is a true blood food and
is naturally adapted to the cure
of the blood sickness from
which so many young women
