It is so easy to criticise one’s
neighbor who has gone wrong
in morals, or made a failure in
business, and so hard to give
credit for the effect of the in
fluences of impelling him to
disaster, over which he has no
control, that our criticism of
others is often very uncharit
able. Men often say how good
they would have been, or what
they would have accomplished
had they been in the other
man’s place. They do not stop
to ask why the fellow that was
in the other shoes did not suc
ceed. If they did they would
often find the man who went
wrong, or who failed, was en
titled to great credit for stand
ing up so bravely under forces
and burdens that might easily
have overthrown his accusers.
Sometimes the man who fails
is a greater hero than another
who wins.
Representative Joe Hardage
seems to have developed into
a full-fledged knocker. He re
cently made a vicious attack
upon T.J. Raney upon the floor
of the House, where Mr, Ran
ey had no opportunity of de
fending himself. Last Tuesday,
Mr. Hardage made a similar
attack upon Secretary State T.
J. Terral because Mr. Terral
had the word “private” taken
off the door of the secretary of
state’s office. Fortunately,
there are very few men in the
legislature as small as Mr.
Hardage is showing himself to
be.
“Hog and hominy” make a
good combination, especially
when it seems desirable to sub
stitute for a portion of the cot
ton acreage. Hogs and corn
save in the farmer’s expenses
and a surplus of both can be
sold at good prices. War,
should it continue,will not like

Sickly Children
A child with worms is pale,
cross and unhealthy. Its appe

sleep, and frequently grinds the
teeth when sleeping. A certain
remedy for worms is
White’s Cream

It destroys the worms and
strengthens the internal organs
that have been weakened by
these pests. Pale, sickly chil

I The Why of Removal
We believe the majority of
Arkansans think alike on the
subject of the removal of the
State University.
Situated in the most remote
and inaccessible part of the
State, it has been and still is
being used as a high school for
Washington county. Senator
Alexander, one of the joint au
thors of the removal bill, lives
at Blytheville, 420 miles from >
the university. It takes twen
ty-nine and one-half hours to
reach Fayetteville from Blythe
ville. Practically every point
in southern Arkansas is more
than 300 miles away, with in
adequate railroad connections,
so it usually takes a day and a
night or two days to go from
any point in southern, south
eastern or northeastern Arkan
sas to the University. Is it any
wonder that the attendance
has nof increased any in years?
Is it a wonder that in the years
1908-1909 there were a little
more than 700 college students
at the University?
In February, 1912, the stu
dents at the University went
on a strike, issued a paper and
among other things, editorially
said :
“Fayetteville may well be
glad public sentiment is against
and pork. It will take an enor
mous amount of these products
to supply the cotton farmers of
the South. Why not produce
our bread and meat ourselves?
A bread riot occurred in
New York City Tuesday when
several hundred women, many
of them carrying babies, storm
ed the city hall to demand re
lief. The present high prices of
food is causing much distress
in many of the large cities and
the food situation is likely to
become critical all over the
country before another crop
of food products can be pro
duced.
“A living at home” should
be the first object in planning
the rotation this year. The liv
ing must be had and if it is not
raised on the farm it must be
bought at the stores with all
of the transportation charges
and middlemen’s profit added.
When you produce as much of
your living at home as you can
you will save all except the ac
tual cost of production.
Don’t spend all of your time
telling what you would do if
you were in some other fellow’s
place. The successful man is
the one who attends to his own
business and lets the other fel
low’s business alone.

were not, her present oppor
tunity to U3e the students and
the institution as a subjectlof ex
ploitation she would not last as
long as a snowball dog chas
ing an asbestos cat through the
nethermost regions of the In

The recent report of the
joint committee of the legisla
ture visiting the university stat
ed in substance that the build
ings were rather dilapidated
and necessarily would require j
a great deal of money to put
them in condition, whereupon
Pulaski county came forward
and has agreed to raise a mil
lion dollars to establish a uni
versity near Little Rock, buy
the land, construct the build
ings and turn the whole thing
over to the State as a donation
and assure the public that the
attendance at the University
would double between sessions
of the legislature.
Are the taxpayers of Arkan
sas so prosperous they would
refuse this million dollars? The
money appropriated every two
years should be employed in a
place where we could have a
real university for all our boys
and girls.—Arkansas Demo

When You Feel “Blue
Out of Sorts, Half-Sick and everything serins to
be going wrong, you need a dose or two of
HERBINE
It Is a Pure, Wholesome
System Cleanser and Regulator
The trouble is mainly in the liver, it is torpid. A
torpid liver allows impurities to accumulate in
the system which hamper every organ in the
body. The result is biliousness, low spirits, bad
digestion, a tired languid feeling, the head feels
dizzy, the appetite poor and the bowels irregular
—generally constipated. Herbine clears out all
bilious impurities, revives and strengthens the
torpid liver, tones the stomach and digestion and
restores regularity in the bowels. After the
system has been relieved of the impurities there
is an immediate improvement. Appetite returns,
the spirits rise, the mind clears of gloomy dis
couragement and everything looks bright and
cheerful. Try it.
