If you do not like Newark just
as it is, couldn’t you do just a lit
tle bit more toward making it a
better town?
Bryan and Clark have buried
the hatchet, but it is very evident
that Mr. Clark is not going to
forget its grave.
Do not forget that it is the
farmer’s dollar that builds the
town. Whenever a town fails to
realize this and discriminates
against the producer it is cutting
off itself from the storehouse of
supply. _
Along with six others, the dep
uty prosecuting attorney of Sebas
tian county was, a few days ago,
fined $50 in the police court at
Fort Smith for gambling. Who
said all the gamblers lived in Hot
Springs? __
Reports from Washington say
that President Wilson gives cold
comfort to the eager throng of pie
hunters who invade the national
capitol. And no doubt they think
cold comfort is a very poor substi
tute for warm pie.
Our farmers must learn better
farming methods—must learn to
produce more cheaply, care for the
soil more wisely, use more labor
saving tools and horsepower, and
read and study more in order to
combine brains with brawn.—Pro
gressive Farmer.
Happy are those who acquire a
desire for reading early in life.
They have found a source of
pleasure and profit. They have
communication with the best
talent, the greatest intellect and
the highest ideals. They have
connected themselves with the in
tellectual powerhouse of the world.
The man that waits for the
state or the national government
to do for him what he might do
for himself will have long to wait.
Tiie politicians who must be con
sulted before the state or nation is
ready to act, do not care for the
waiting fellow. It is the man
who does things for himself that
the politician is anxious to serve.—
Farm and Ranch.
There is nothing that injures a
community or an individual more
than selfishness. A community
in which selfishness predominates
seldom prospers because selfish in
dividuals do not wish to see their
neighbors prosper, and unless their
neighbors have a reasonable de
gree of prosperity neither the sel
fish citizens nor the community
can attain real success.
“ Talks By Your Dealer”

“The New Sign”
“Dealers In The Square Deal.” How
would that be for a new sign on our store?
1 hat is what we are aim
ing at. We’re steering
clear of mis-statements
and exaggeration. Our
reputation cost us more
to build than we could
gain by sacrificing it. If
you have bought goods
here you k?iow. I f you
haven’t it’s high time
for us to “get acquaint
ed. ” Guess that sign
won’t be necessary after
all. Deeds speak louder
than words. Drop around.

Increase Its Value
Make that old building of
yours worth more money by giv
ing it a coat ftf good paint.
When it comes to good paint,
we know that the brand we sell
is one of the best.
Bradley &Vrooman
PAINT
You know Bradley & Vrooman
Paint. You know it is reliable. It
has been on the market a third of a
century and makes good because
it is made good. Don’t buy any
paint without talking to us first.
THE NEWARK DRUG CO.
A prominent member of the
Arkansas Federation of Womens
Clubs had a very interesting
article in last Sunday’s Gazette
on “The Passing of the Pe tticoat.”
We have modestly refrained from
mentioning it before, but since
the good lady has called attention
to it, we must say that the petti
coat was evidently a garment of
wonderful design or else its
“passing” was like the old-time
politician—had a very large “fol
lowing.” _
The state superintendent of
public instruction says that in
those counties of Arkansas where
county superintendency has been
adopted, rural school conditions
are being greatly improved. One
of Arkansas’ greatest needs is bet
ter schools and longer terms. A
good, live man as county superin
tendent of schools could do a
great work in Independence coun
ty in building up a greater inter
est in our public schools and in
helping them to do more efficient
work. This matter is to be voted
upon in the approaching school
election in May and The Journal
hopes to see county superinten
dency adopted.
Rheumatic Pains
are quickly relieved by an application of Sloan’s
Liniment. You don’t need to rub—just lay on
lightly. It penetrates at once to
the seat of the trouble.
Here’s Proof
} Miss Elsie Manthky, 4229 Talman
Ave., Chicago, 111., writes:—“About two
years ago my mother broke down with
I rheumatism. The doctors didn't do any
good. My mother was persuaded to try
Sloan’s Liniment, and in three weeks
was entirely well — and I believe she is
cured forever.”
Relief From Rheumatism
Miss H. L. Lindelkvf, Gilroy,Calif.,
writes:—•• My mother has used one 50c.
bottle of Sloan’s Liniment, and although she is over 83 years of age, she has
obtained great relief from her rheumatism.”
Rheumatism Entirely Gone
Miss Evf.i.f.tta Myi.r. of 1215 Wyoming St., Dayton. Ohio, writes: —
My mother was troubled with rheumatism and her friends a*h is. d her to get

sisters and I and Sloan’s Liniment cured every one of us in a week’s tim
