What about, our Fourth of July
Celebration? .
The number of opium smokers
in the United States is estimated
at one million.
The largest living thing on earth
is the new-found red-wood tree in
California which is said to be 350
feet high and 156 feet in circum
ference. ____________
It would be the best thing that
ever happened to Arkansas if the
people would turn oitt the entire
-gang at Little Rock and elect a
new set of state oflieers from top
to bottom._
The prospects for a big erop of
cotton this year seem rather un
favorable at present. Cotton is
late; in many fields the stand is
defective, and it is too late to
remedy the defect; the soil over
Considerable areas in the best, cot
ton growing sections is in bad con
dition on account of the incessant
rains. The summer and fall weather
may influence the yield materially,
but on this feature of the case no
safe predictions can be made. Hut
we have the statistical fact that a
small cotton crop sells for more
money than a large one, so why
worry over the prospect?
t AjitSlingWlshed writer has the;
following on the country editor in
ft recent issue of theCosmopolitan:
“Nowadays, the successful editor
in a country town or the smaller
city has a better average chance
to play a leading part in politics
than the average lawyer, although
this was not formerly true. The
number of editors nowadays in our
State legislatures and the two!
houses of Congress, in tho Diplo
matic Service and in high appoint- j
ive posts under the Federal Gov
ernment would surprise you if you
have not had your attention called
to it. To me it is a commonplace i
fact,, because so many men whom
1 have known in journalism or
with whose work I have been fa
miliar, have gone into public life.
Where they have shown exceptional
capacity for usefulness.”
Living at an out of the way place I
remote from civilization, a family
is often driven to desperation in
case of accident, resulting in burns, i
Cuts, wounds ulcers, etc. Lay in a
supply of Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.
It's the best on earth. 25c, at Stur

To Breathe.
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure
Cured Me.
There is toothing that has a more deleter
ious effect upon the cardiac or heart nerves
than the excessive use oi tolmcco. Pain ami
tenderness around tire heart, an oppressive
fee ing in the cheat, choking sensation in the
throat, discomfort from sleeping on the left
51 ie and smothering spells at night when the
sufferer has to sit up in l ed to breathe are
the most common symptoms of a weak heart.
Smokers who feel these symptoms and who
do not understand their meaning should be
warned in lime, by the following experience:
“I was greatly- troubled with an affection
of the heart, due 1 think t > excessive smoking.
On writing to you ior advice I was directed
to begin a bourse of treatment which in
cluded Dr. Miles’ Heart Curt-. Dr. M ies'
Nervine and Nerve and 1 iver I’ill*, together
w ith bathing, etc. I faithfully followed the
direct!mi; given i nd am pleased lo say that
my cure is complete and permanent. Be*
fore beginning the use cf v>ur remedies I
was so nervous 1 could n t keep my hands
stdl and suffered greatly from severe pa ns
around the heart. Many times at night I
would be forced to assume a sitting posture
to get my breath, ami for the time being it
would seem as though my heart had stopped
beating. From the splendid results achieved
in my c.ise I can cheerfully recommend Dr.
Miies’ ll -art Cure. Restorative Nervine and
other remedies to all sufferers from heart or

11, after an illness of six weeks
from typhoid fever.
Mr. Griffith was born near Oil
Trough October 22, 1868, and was
an excellent young man and po
sessed many noble traits of charac
ter that won him many warm
friends. He went with his broth
er several years ago to Dodd City
where they engaged in business
and made many friends. In the
summer of 1901 they returned to
Newark and engaged in the mer
cantile business. By his uniform
courtesy and gentlemanly conduct
Mr. Griffith won the admiration
of a large circle of friends and no
man was more highly respected
than he.
I he funeral took place from the
residence Friday at 4 p. m. and
the remains were followed to their
last earthly resting place by a large
number of friends. The remains
were interred at Blue Springs
cemetery, Rev. C. L. Castleberry

The Professor’s flare.
Me Peek, Tex., June 2.
Editor The Journal.
Please allow me space to say a
word or two in regard to the pro
fessor's buggy horse, which I un
derstand ho, wants to sell. Of
course I wouldn’t misrepresent the
mare for anything.
The mare Was raised in Indiana
82 years ago. She was drove from
there to Shelby county, Tennessee
by some imigrants; was rode from
there to Dallas, Tex., the next
night, and the next evening to
j Upshur county. She was sold at
| a public sale a short time after
wards for $7.35 to one of the di
rectors where the professor taught
his last school and I think he trad
ed her to the professor for two
months of his wages. The pro
fessor and his family left here rid
ing the mare some time ago bound
for Arkansas.
The mare is the grandmother of
the famous Maud S and the pro
fessor says she can’t be beaten as
as a buggy horse. He says that
he drove her from Dallas to Gil
mer, a distance of 90 miles, right
In front of a cyclone and it never
touched him. The rain and hail
fell in torrents two feet behind
him, but he came through with his
linen duster as dry as a preacher’s
coat. When he got home the back
end of his buggy was full of liail
stones and water auu ho said that
when he wanted a drink he would |
just reach back with a tin cup and ;
catch it full of rain water. He j
said he could see the sunshine just
a short distance ahead of him.
Now. of course, we all know the 1
professor wouldn’t misrepresent j
the mare and if it is necessary I
i will come up and bring a lot of
j witnesses to prove that she is all |
right and is not over 35 years old.
She is a good old family nag and I
hope ho can sell her so he can pay
i me some on that little board bill
lie owes me. Hot Stuit'1.

| J, I’’. Murphy, who had been
, sick for several months with con
| sumption, died at his rooms in the j
j Hotel Winnie last Saturday even
; ing at twenty minutes past ten
! o’clock. He had been in bad health
; for rnor.e than a year and about a
year ago went to Mamitou, C’olo., ;
[ where he spent some time with |
! the hope of regaining his health.
He was not materially benefited
however and after few months re
turned home and in the early fall
went to Arizona where he spent
the fall and winter, but without
benefit to his health and about two
months ago he returned home.
After his return home he grew
steadily worse until death resulted.
Mr. Murphy was born July 23,
1 in lennessee and came to
Arkansas when quite small. In
I8S7 he was married to Miss
Mamie Moore at Sulphur Rock
and throe children were born unto
them, two girls and one boy, An
nie, Winnie and Russell. All the
children and Mrs. Murphy survive
him. The deceased was well
known as a man of sound business
integrity, and had a host of friends.
The burial took place Sunday
afternoon at 4 o’clock at the Sul
phur Rock cemetery, Rev. C. L.
Castleberry conducting the ser
vices.
A Remarkable Cat.
Capt. R. R. Reeves, of Oil
Trough lias an old house cat with !
a record for productiveness that j
can't he beaten. She is two and a j
half years old and we have a faint j
suspicion that she is the original |
promulgator of the present Roose- j
veil platform. The Roosevelt j
platform, it will be remem
be red, is “The free and unlimited ;
coinage of young Americans.” At ,
any rate the old cat is a firm be-!
liever in the Roosevelt platform,!
for within the past fourteen
months she has given birth to 28 I
kittens', four the first time, five the j
second time, six the third time, \
live the fourth time and, a few j
days ago, just to show that she I
was a faithful observer of the j
principles of the Roosevelt doc*1
trine, she gave birth to eight more
good-sized healthy kittens making
a total of 2s in fourteen months.

LOOK OUT
FOR MALARIA.
An epidemic of Malaria is sure to fol*
low the wet season and the high waters
which have prevailed all over the
Booth. Malarial and kindred fevers
Will develope to an alarming extent.
General health conditions will be bad}
every precaution should be taken.
The System Must Especially Be For
titled to Resist Malarial Atttoks.
A trial of fifty years has demonstrat
ed that for this emergency, Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic has no equal. Iron is
the fighting element in the blood, and
the kind of iron supplied by Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic is just the kind the
system requires to successfully combat
malarial conditions. Don’t wait until
you are attacked. Take it now and for
tify yourself; It is an absolute safeguard
and, at the same time, it is the best
tonic and invigorant for the entire sys
tem. On the other hand, quinine dis
turbs the system and its cumulative
poisou begets greater physical troubles
than those it is employed to remedy.

OVERWHELMING
EVIDENCE
There are four piano manufacturers in nlie United States
and only four, who have made 100,000 pianos each. The
houses which are now proudly celebrating this achievement
are thediickering, the Fischer, the Steinway and the Kimball.
It will no doubt be of interest to know the length of
time it has taken each of these distinguished companies to
pioduce 100.000 pianos, which is as follows :
The Chickering, 80 Years
The Fischer, 63 Years
The Stein way, 50 Years
The Kimball, 20 Years
Of these companies the Kimball is the only organ manu
facturer, and in addition to the pianos has also made more
than 250.000 reed organs and 4,400 large pipe organs.
In twenty years time, therefore, the Kimball Company
has far outstripped all other makers in output in this or any
other country.
This wonderful achievement, when coupled with the
artistic merit of the Kimball, as attested by so large a num
ber of great artists and musicians of Europe and America,
completes a record of facts which is indisputable, and makes
plain the verdict.
