A DANGEROUS FLUE
MAY BE DETECTED
Just How to Look at a Chim
ney to Find the Defect That
May Cause Fire F.xplained.
“We often hear about the
need of inspecting flues to lo
cate defects which cause fires,
but a person ought to know
what to look for before trying
to find it,” says Manager J. S.
Speed, of the Arkansas Actuar
ial Bureau, in a circular on
“Chimneys,” just issued.
What to look for most par
ticularly, when inspecting your
chimney is this: “Examine very
carefully your chimney at the
point just below the peak of
the roof, where the chimney
goes through. The lower part
may have settled and the up
per part, being held by he roof
timbers, may have pulled away
leaving an open space or break
in the chimney. Such a break
will permit sparks to slip
through into the attic or con
cealed space.
The spider is a regular little
fire detective, according to the
circular. It says: “The spider is
said to spin its web on the
warmest part of the chimney
and thus spider webs, frequent
ly found on and about cracks
on the flue, should be exam
ined.”

says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., fn
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s

Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
I wish every’ suffering woman would give
The Woman’s Tonic

and it always does me good.”

ACT NO 2. IS A
DANGEROUS BILL
Mr. Editor.—I feel impress
ed to say a few words in the
columns of The Journal in re
gard to Act No. 2, the most
diabolical scheme the devil ever
devised to slander our noble
state. I consider that the para
mount issue in this election.
Yet, I hear some say they had
never thought much about it.
and one man a few days ago
told me he had not even heard
that such a question was to be
voted on.
I am not afraid of the defeat
of the law if the people were
informed on the enormity of
the effects the neinous la\\
would have on our state. It is
the expressed opinion of some
of the best lawyers in the state,
that if it is adopted, any man
can set up a little grog shop
anywhere and go to selling his
rot-gut without any license
from the state or county, which
would at once put a stop to
good citizens coming to Ark
ansas and would invite the
scum of citizens from other
states, which would put Ark
ansas back in civilization at
least fifty years.
The Anti-Saloon League of
the State has put the responsi
bility on the preachers of all
denominations to hold an all
day mass meeting next Sunday
to discuss this question, to have
a basket dinner and spend the
day discussing the great im
portance of defeating the ob
noxious act No. 2. Now will the
preachers do it?
I was talking with an intel
ligent man on the train a few
nights ago who is a prohibi
tionists, and he remarked that
they wouldn’t do it, “they are
too lazy,” he said. I hope the
preachers will do so and inform
the voters on the subject, and
if they will it will carry the
state so strong for the protec
tion of our Statewide Prohibi
tion that the wholesale liquor
dealers and brewers of other
states will never make another
such attempt to try to disgrace
Arkansas.
Every lover of sobriety ought
to do all he can for the defeat
of Act No. 2 for the sake of his
children and grand children.
1 am truly yours for State
wide prohibition.
W. P. LAWTON.

Is Not All That Good
ADVERTISING
ACCOMPLISHES
If an individual is to cultivate his personal friend
ships he must keep in touch with his friends. As Dr.
Johnson puts it, we must keep our friendships in const
ant repair.”
It is so with a merchant. Through his advertising
he is enabled to keep in communication with his store’s
patrons and friends. He gives them the new facts about
his offerings. Sometimes he tells them of special op
portunities he has created through which they may
save money in needed purchases. These advertisements
of “special sales” may usually be relied upon to stimu
late business—to make quick turnovers of stocks which
have accumulated.
But the store’s advertising does more than to ac
complish clearances, or to speed up sales of particular
lines of goods. It repairs and cements store-friend
ships. The slightly “peeved” customer, who may be
holding a mild grievance, is won back through the in
fluence of advertising which makes the store’s policies
understood. The man or the woman who may have de
cided that, for some reason unknown to the merchant,
they will transfer their trading to some other store, be
comes interested in a special offering made in the ad
vertisements of the innocent offender, and comes back
to the first allegiance.
Advertising affords ttye means of holding waver
ing friendships. And that is a task facing every mer
chant—and more important than the immediate sale.
