Rheumatism is a sharp pain,
Rheumatism is sore muscles.

YOUTH KILLS BROTHER
Alma, Jan. 4.—Joe Harris,
14 years old, son of G. W. Har
ris, living a mile and a half
south of Alma, was shot and in
stantly killed by his younger
brother, Arley, 11 years old,
late yesterday afternoon. As far
as can be learned, the killing
was accidental, as there was no
one at home at the time of the
shooting exept the two broth
ers. The shooting wasdonewith
on old muzzle loading shotgun
that had been loaded more than
a year. The whole right side of
the boy’s face was blown off.
-o
WATCH THE ROADS
January and February are
hard months on country roads.
Two-thirds of the really bad
places could often be prevented
by a few minutes work at the
right time. Why wait for the
officers to do these little jobs?
Ten minutes work would often
stop a “wash” down the center
of a hill that later will cost fif
ty dollars to fix. Open up the
ditches and keep the water off
the road. Drainage is the first
law of roadmaking and drag
ging is the next great law.
-o
ORCHARD PRUNING
Whether the orchard has a
hundred acres or one acre or
even a dozen trees, this is the
month for pruning. Cut out the
useless dead stock and let the
sunlight in. Keep the lower
limbs so the picking will be
easy. If a farmer does not know
how to prune his trees, he
should find a neighbor who can
teach him or he should change
work with someone or hire the
work done. But prune now. It
will help the tree and make the
place look better.

DEAN MILLER PRAISES
ARKANSAS EDITORS
Dean J. H. Miller, director of
the Extension Division of the
College of Agriculture at Fay
etteville, praises the editors of
Arkansas for their co-opeation
with his department during the
past year. He says:
“The farmers of Arkansas
and the Extension forces of the
state need to thank most heart
ily the editors of the weekly
and daily newspapers. The
writer has been in public ser
vice for a little over a third of
a century and has had much to
do with newspapes men, has
been a newspaper man and
loves the fraternity everywhere,
but for real interest in agricul
ture and in all public welfare
he is free to say that the news
paper men of Arkansas stand
second to none. They have been
so extremely kind to the writer
land have used his ‘stuff’ so lib
erally that he will feel free to
I promise the farmers of Arkan
sas even more material than
heretofore.”

I . WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps
Us Strong and Healthy
All the blood in the body
passes through the kidneys
once every three minutes. The
ikidneys filter the blood. They
work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500
grains of impure matter daily.
When unhealthy some part of
f.d uifqe pieo sreettaoinetaoie
this impure matter is left inthe
blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms—whic h
vary widely but may include
pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatic pains, gout, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debilty drowsiness
dropsy, deposits of the urine,
etc. Rut if you keep the fil
ters right the dager is over
come. Doan’s Kidney Pills
have proven an effective kid
ney medicine.
A. R. Philips, carpenter, W.
Arch St. Searcy, Ark., says: “I
had good results from Doan’s
Kidney Pills nd so did another
of my family. My back had
given me quite a bit of pain
and on using one box of Doan’s
Kidney Pills, 1 had line results.
I have noticed no sign of kid
ney trouble to speak of since.”
Price 50c at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mr. Phil
ips had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

Get a Statement
From The Journal?
The Journal has often said
that we have the best paying
list of subscribers of any paper
in Arkansas, There is no joke
about this, either; it’s true as
Gospel. Usually they keep
paid right up, and many of
them a year in advance. Rut
the past two years have been
unusually hard ones, on account
of the drouth last year and the
overflow this year, and we find
that quite a number of our sub
scribers have gotten behind. So
■as fast as we can get to them,
we are mailing out statements
to all subscribers in arrears.We
hope all who can do so will re
spond promptly. The Journal
has incurred heavy expenses in
putting in new machinery and
we have heavy obligations to
meet that will make it necessary
for us to collect as closely as
up promptly, as you have al
ways done. A dollar or two is a
small amount but when sever
al hundred or a thousand per
sons owe us a dollar ortwoeach
it amounts to a good deal to us.
If you get a statement and
find an error in it, remember
you have only to call our atten
tion to it and we will gladly
correct it.
THE COTTON OUTLOOK
Recently it tvas announced
that Germany had found a sub
stitute for cotton in making
gunpowder and that even after
the war that country would not
| use cotton in her ammunition
factories. If the war does not
close soon the European nations
will be so crushed by debt that
they will not be able to buy cot
ton for this or any other pur
pose. Of course the failure to
keep up the supply of cotton
for textiles would naturally
make a tremenduous demand
for cotton if the people were
not so burdened with taxes.The
outlook for a big cotton trade
next year is bad. The southern
farmer who “banks his all’’ on
cotton this season is certainly
taking a gambler’s risk. The
safe thing is to make another cut
and with a smaller acreage pro
duce a good yield of good qual
ity and then stand a fairchance
to get a decent price and make
a profit above cost of produc
tion.

Good for the Whole Family
“Granny” Chamberlain "A good cough remedy IS ons tTlaJj®Jn
depended upon to cure cougl’3. * <ot
that cures some particular cough, but coughs in general.
It must be a cough remedy that can be relied upon ior all t >e
different coughs that are so prevalent. While the causes or a
coughs are primarily the same, yet the condition or the patient
is what makes the difference in the nature of the cough itse .
Coughs of healthy persons are easier to cure than tl
invalids. The powerful convulsive cough of a large man is
harder to cure than the cough of a baby. If you get a reme y
that will cure a large man’s cough and yet not be too powerful
for the baby, you have a good cough remedy.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
is just this kind of remedy. It is good for any membei of the
family. It relieves coughs of all kinds. It is the product of much
thought and study to produce an ideal cough remedy. It is com
posed of things which cure easily and soothing!/ without harm
ing the most delicate tissues of the throat. It acts as easily and
safely on the young as on the old, and is the ideal remedy for
coughs, colds, croup, influenza, whooping cough and bronchitis.
