RAILROAD LOSES LAWSUIT
Newark Citizens Win Suit For
Damages in Supreme Court
The ease of W. T. and R T
M air ness and S. A. Moore vs. the
St. L. I. M. & S. K.v. Co , appeal
ed from the Independence Circuit
Court, was decided in the Supreme
Court at Little Rock Monday, the
decision of the lower court being
\ affirmed.
This was a suit for damages
claimed by the gentlemen mention
ed, by reason of the railroad com
pany having raised the road-bed
I just west of Newark, changing the
course of Thomas creek and caus
ing the water to overflow their
lands. They separately brought
suit for damages in the circuit
I court, and won their cases, W . T.
Magness securing judgment for
$3,200, S. A. Moore $050 and R.
T. Magness $500.
The evidence shows that after
the channel of the creek first be
gan to fill up and the course of the
kitroQtii oliu turorl *.» emu I I
dug by one Powell, a land-owner,
in order to protect himself; and
the railroad company alleged that
whatever damages had been occa
sioned were due to the diversion of
the natural flow of the waters by
said Powell. The three year
statute of limitation was also
pleaded.
In passing upon the case the
supreme court held that whether
the diversion of the waters was
primarily by the railroad com
pany in obstructing the old chan
nel, or by natural causes, or by
Powell or other parties, is wholly
immaterial in this case. For at
least four years the waters of this
stream had passed over appellant’s
railroad in a certain course, and
had flowed out into other streams
without doing any damage to ap
pellees’ lands. In lbOti the flow of
these waters was obstructed and
diverted by appellant, and a new
channel was created therefor by
the digging of a ditch through
which the waters were made to
flow. As a direct consequence
thereof, the waters overflowed the
lands of appellees. This obstruc
tion of the former course of the
stream was of a permanent nature
and any damages resulting to ap
pellees by reason thereof were re
coverable in a suit brought within
three years thereafter. Judgment
is therefore atiiruied.
The result of this suit has been
awaited with considerable interest
by a number of other parties who
have similar suits pending against
the railroad company, and under
this decision it is very probable
that they will be able to recover

BUYING ON CREDIT
The evil effects of buying on
credit are not alone measured by
the greater cost of individual ar
ticles, but one of its chief disad
vantages is the tendency, which
effects everyone, to buy more
when it can be bought on credit
than when cash is paid down at
the time of purchase.

THE HEROES OF PEACE
An Appreciation of the Real Cap
tains of Southern Progress
It is a splendid tiling to offer
one’s life to one's country in time
of war, but we are fortunate that
we live in a time when a man can
serve his country and his race no
less definitely than the soldiers of
ancient wars, and in the cause of
progress and building up, rather
than in the destructive work of
war.
The heroes of our times are no
less heroes than the men of ’dl
and ’65, although their work is
less spectacular -such work this
of saving human life, and such
work, too, os rebuilding the South
by better systems of education and
of agriculture.
This thought came forcibly to
mind the other day when the
writer met the county farm de
monstration agents of one of the
Southern states. Here was a
meeting of the captains of prog
ress, me icHuers in a war winch is
building np as notably as common
wars tear down. The good that
these men are doing is incalculable,
and every county ought to make
an appropriation to aid the demon
stration work, as, in fact, many
are already doing.
It is an opportune time for put
ting double energy into such work
as this. Southern Farm Gazette.

Sample Helps
Frail Women
So tnany women are dragging out
weary lives just because their diges
tive organs are weak. The result is
poor circulation, nervousness and the
verge of invalidism. It is often very
unnecessary and the woman’s own
fault.
The first thing to do Is to look to the
welfare of your bowels. There the trou
ble usually lies. All physicians know
that a large percentage of women are
habitually constipated, anil from this re
sults indigestion, piles, weariness, etc.,
that women constantly complain of.
But there is no use taking "female rem
edies” and things of that kind until you
have started your bowels to moving.
You will find that when the bowels move
regularly once or twice a day all your
petty ills will disappear. Take a good, i
mild laxath’o tonic llko Dr Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin for awhile and you will
find yourself rapidly getting better and
stronger, your bowels will regulate them
selves and work at stated times, and
then your headaches and dizziness will;
disappear. Don't take strong cathartic
pills or salts, but Just such a mild and
pleasant-tasting remedy as Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin.
You can obtain a bottle of your drug
gist for fifty cents or one dollar, and
either size may be enough to perma- ]
nently cure you. Thousands of women
keep it regularly in the house and will
po longer be without It. as it cured them
and can be used with safety by every
member of the family, down to the
youngest child, but if you have never
used It take the advice of Mrs. Earl S.
Cox. 409 Twenty-fifth street. Moline, 111
and Mrs. Ellen Dungan, Munele, Ind., and
send to Dr. Caldwell for a free trial bot
tle. as they did. and learn for yourself
what it will do In your own case. That
It will cure you, as it did them, there Is
no doubt
Dr Caldwell personally will be pleased
to give you any medical advice you may
desire for yourself or family pertaining to
the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely
free of charge Explain your case In i
letter and he will reply to you In detail
