It’s Quality
You don’t buy a wagon often,
and when you buy you want
one that will give you full val
ue for the money you invest.
The Birdsell Wagons
are the best made. They are
made for hard service and are
worth the money. Come and
look them over and get prices.

OVR LAST SUMMER ROADS
Actual construction work is to j
be commenced on the Bristol-to- \
Washington highway within the J
next few7 weeks. This is a contin- j
uance of the Memphis-to-Bristol j
highway, started borne time ago
at the suggestion of Governor
1 Hooper of Tennessee.
Last summer The Journal sug-i
gested a Batesville-to-Memphis
highway, by way of Newark, New-|
port, Augusta and Wynne. Many j
! people seemed favorably impress- j
ed with the suggestion, but noth-1
ing tangible resulted from it.
Good roads are badly needed all;
over the country, but it will be
next to impossible to get the aver-'
! age citizen to take any interest in |
! them until a few trunk lines of
I the right kind of roads can be
, built between some important
j points, to fully demonstrate their
I value.
r or instance, we have a fine
: piece of road between Newark
and Magness-perhaps the best
peice of road in the county—and
i1 there is hardly a day that we do
: not hear some favorable comment
upon it. But it is too short. If;
j we had a road like that from
Batesville to Newark and on to j
Newport, it would be worth some
thing, not only for its actual value
for everyday use, but also as a!
means of demonstrating the value
of good roads and creating an in
terest in getting more roads like
it in all directions.
The Journal hopes that some of I
: those fellows who were so luke
I wrarm on the roads question last |
; summer are now getting a good |
j lesson from the present condition ;
of the roads that they will not
■ soon forget.
".
A correspondent in this issue
calls attention to the fact that our
I county pays 75 cents a day for
taking care of the man in jail,
while it only pays 25 cents a day
for taking care of those unfortun
ates who are friendless, homeless,
broken down and unable to make
their own way in the world. It
seems rather absurd that the:
county should pay more for taking
care of able-bodied criminals than 1
I it will pay for taking care of the i
homeless and helpless. This is
done, not only in this county, hut j
in a number of other counties in
the state. There should he some
humane system whereby the law
breaker could be made self-sup
! porting, instead of becoming a
! burden upon the law-abiding, as at I
! present. This has been a problem j
for ages and its solution seems
yet a good ways off.
Jeff delivered his annual speech
on the trusts in the senate Thurs
day. With a few slight additions,
its the same speech Jeff has been ;
making ever since he first became
; a candidate for governor of Ark
ansas. A certain wise man once
declared that “There is nothing
new under the sun,” and Jeff
seems to be taking him at his
word.

The Walnut Ridge Times sur
mises that The Journal will sup
port Mr. Brundidge for senator.
The Journal has not said so. But
suppose we do. Hasn’t this paper
the same right to support Mr.
Brundidge that the Times has to
support Senator Davis? Davis and
Robinson have both openly declar
ed against prohibition, and the
Times has (voluntarily, we pre
sume ) become the hand-organ of
both these gentlemen. Every
man has the right to choose for
himself, and if the Times desires
to line up with the liquor crowd,
it is none of our business. How
ever, it is rather strange that so
promising a young man as Lindsey
is willing to line up with the liquor
gang and help in the effort to per
petuate the corrupt and blighting
influences of the liquor organiza
tion in Arkansas. But every man
chooses his own ideal, and as this
is Lindsey’s, we shall not attempt
shatter it._
We hope our boy friends of the
county will read the article in
this issue from Biggers relative to
the acre of corn grown by young
Burley Seagraves. The editor of
The Journal saw the Randolph
County Boys Corn Club exhibit at
the state fair at Hot Springs, and
it was something to be proud of.
We hope the boys of this county
will take up the work this year
and show the folks what we can
do in Independence county.
lhe contract for keeping the
Izard county paupers was let re
cently for the sum of $6.59 per
month each. As this includes
board, clothing, medicine and doc
tor’s bills, it is plainly evident
that Izard county does not intend
to hold out any iducements for
her citizens to shift their burdens
to other shoulders.
Our erstwhile friend John H.
Hinemon is left up in the air with
a very unpleasant place to light,
as a result of Norwood’s with
drawal from the gubernatorial
contest. It is strange, indeed,
how easily smart men can some
times be fooled, and Hinemon has
certainly had it rubbed in on him
good and plenty.
The Sharp County Record
hands science a good warm roast
because a government weather
man handed out the wrong prog
nostication a few days ago. Verily,
the Record editor is getting to be
a great thinker, and we would not
be at all surprised to see him make
a move to abolish science alto
gether. _
Attorney General Hal Norwood
has quit the race for governor.
This is no surprise to those who
have kept a close tab on the politi
cal situation. The contest will
now settle down to a fight between
Uonaghey as a prohibitionist and
Robinson as a candidate of the
liquor interests.
The recent big fire in Newark
caused considerable loss, but it
will prove beneficial to the town.
Good modern brick buildings will
be erected to replace those burned,
and thus the fire will prove an
other boost for a Better and
Greater Newark.
No one thing is doing more to
educate the farmers in diversified
farming than the Boys Corn Clubs,
where they are properly conduct
ed. The Journal would like to see
more interest put into this work
in our county this year.

MILD, GENTLE LAXATIVE
FOR WOMEN GIVEN FREE
So many of the Ills of women are due
to habitual constipation, probably be
cause of their false modesty on the sub
ject, that their attention cannot be too
strongly called to the Importance of keep
ing the bowels open. It is always impor
tant to do that, regardless of the sex, but
it is especially important in women.
From the time the girl begins to men
struate until menstruation ceases she has
always vastly better prospects of coming
through healthy if she watches her bowel
movements. If you find yourself consti
pated, with bad breath, pimply complex
ion, headaches, belching gas and other
symptoms of Indigestion and constipation,
take a small dose of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin. It is a woman’s favorite laxa
tive. You will find that you can do away
with salts, strong cathartics, etc., which
are entirely unsuited to woman’s require
ments.
Mrs. Katherine Ilaberstroh of McKees
Rocks, Fa., and Mrs. A. 13. Herrick of
Wheeler, Mich., wtio was almost para
lyzed in her stomach and bowels, are now
cured by the use of this remedy. A free
sample bottle can be obtained by address
ing Dr. Caldwell, and after you are con
vinced of its merits buy it of your drug
gist at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle.
Dr. Caldwell does not feel that the
purchase of his remedy ends his obli
gation. He has specialized in stomach,
liver and bowel diseases for over forty
years and will be pleased to give the
reader any advice on the subject free
of charge. All are welcome to write
him. Whether for the medical advice
or the free sample address him Dr.
