A Man’s Prayer
Let me live, Oh Mighty Master,
Such a life as men should know,
Tasting triumph and disaster,
Joy—and not too much of woe;
Let me run the gamut over.
Let me Fight and Love and LaLugh,
And when I’m beneath the clover
Let this be my epitaph:
“Here lies one who took his chances
In the busy world of men,
Battled Luck and Circumstances,
Fought and fell, and fought again;
Won sometimes, but did no crowing,
Lost sometimes, but didn’t wail,
Took his beating, but kept going,
Never let his courage fail.
“He was fallible and human,
Therefore loved and understood
Both his Fellowmen and Women,
Whether good—or not so good;
Kept his Spirit undiminished,
Never lay down on a Friend,
Played the Game till it was finished,
Lived a Sportsman to the end.” . .

SAYS HONESTY IS
THE BEST POLICY
Mr. Editor.—When I was a
boy I heard John S. Duggar tell
this story to my father. It ran
about this way:
A poor man was hard press
ed for bread. He had a rich
neighbor who had plenty and
to spare, but the poor man had
no money to buy with and his
credit was low. His wife urged
him to go at night to the rich
man’s crib and get a sack of
corn. The poor fellow was poor
but honest, but his children
crying for bread appealed to
him, and he went to get the
corn, but his conscience kept
speaking to him, “Honesty is
the best policy.” “Yes, but
my wife and children can’t
starve.” Hr proceeded to the
„rib. filling his sack while say
ing “honesty is the best policy,
but my wife and children can’t
starve.” The man who owned
the corn heard him and slipped
out to hear him say, “honesty
is the best policy but my wife
and children can’t starve.”
Thus he continued repeating
his motto,—filled his \sacks
and out at the door, he paused
and repeated his motto—and
said, “honesty is the best policy
and my wife and children must
starve,” and emptied his sack
and went back empty handed.
The rich man never said a
word, but followed him home
to hear what his wife would
say. She blamed him for not
bringing the corn. The night
passed and the poor man sat in
his desolate home repeating his
motto. When the rich man
walked in and said.
“Yes, neighbor, honesty is
the best policy and your wife
and children shall not starve.
I saw' you last night, and heard
you, and you are an honest
man, and you shall be fed.’'
If Senator Sims had mashed
the mouth of McGarvey when
he approached him on the
bribe business Sims wmuld have
been on the highroad for the
governorship of our great state.
“The love of money is the
root of all evil.” As some peo
ple don’t believe this is in the
Bible, I will cite them. Reau
1 Tim. 6-10.
When I w'as pastor at New
ark, a leading church member
i of the Christian church asked
me if it was in the Bible. It is
sure there and true as truth
can be. The man who loves it
will go wrong to get it. He
might not take a bribe, but he
will “crook” on something else
that puts the unjust dollar in
bis pocket.
It is as much a sin to love
money as it it to sw'ear, get
drunk or violate any of the
moral code. Honest "gain is
Godly gain But dishonest gain
is the devil’s gain.
I am of the opinion that a
good deal of gospel preaching
: from the pulpit is needed along
this line. A good deal more is
needed on this subject then on
the mode, design and subject
of water baptism. It is startling
to know that men, supposed to
be honest, will do as did Sims
and Burgess. Wreck their hon
or, smirch their character and
go dowm the path of life—
; stigmatized.
Reader, be honest, first,
; with yourself jsecond with your
God; third, with your fellow
man. Death, as a detective,
i camps on every man’s trail
| and he will lay his icy hand
on you some day, and say,
“Come to judgment; face your
record,” be it good or bad.
The standard of some men’s
honesty is this. “Good, I am
never caught.” That is the
worst sort of rank dishonesty.
An honest man wdllbearwatch
| ing for you will never catch
him in a dirty thing. But a dis
honest man, never, for you are
sure to catch him.

Hacking Coughs
“Granny” Chamberlain
“ For Hacking Coughs that rob you of your sleep till your sys
tem becomes so run down that you are in grave danger of Pneu
monia or Consumption, the kind that almost tear you to pieces,
that make your head ache, your throat sore and inflamed, take
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It soothes and heals the inflamed air passages, stops the tick
ling in the throat, and by its tonic effect enables you to throw
off the disease. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is quite different
from the ordinary cough medicine, for it not only soothes but
also heals, so that the effected parts are restored to a healthy
condition and the danger of a future attack is removed. I firmly
believe that it is the best and most reliable preparation ever pro
duced for coughs and colds.”

AVOID MISTAKES
No Need For Newark People
to Experiment With Jsuch
Convincing Evidence
AT Hand
There are many well-adver
tised kidney remedies on the
market today,but none so well
recomended in this vicinity as
Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read the
statement of a resident of New
port.
J. A. Baird, 214 Main St.,
Newport, Ark., says: “Some
times my back was in such bad
shape that I could hardly
straighten up after stooping. I
had dizzy spells and headaches
and suffered from rheumtic
pains in my limbs. Doan’s Kid
ney Pills relieved me wonder
fully. During the past year, I
haven’t noticed any backache
or other symptoms of kidney
trouble.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pill—the same that Mr. Baird
had. Foster-Milburn,Co..Props. j

TRAIN CRASHES INTO

Two Persons Injured and Auto
mobile Demolished in Col
lision Near Wynne
Wynne, March 4.—An auto
mobile with five occupants was
struck by a passenger train at
a crossing three miles south of
Wynne at 10 o’clock this morn
ing, two of the occupants re
ceiving dangerous injuries and
.the other minor cuts and
bruises.
Edward Hamilton, who was
driving the car, was found un
conscious in a ditch full of mud
.and water after the accident
and a negro woman was hurled
more than 50 feet into a field.
•She lost an ear and was ren
dered unconscious.A negro was
thrown over a car, but appar
ently suffered no serious injur
ies. The other occupants of the
young men,received only minor
injuries. It is not thought that
the injuries of any of the par
ty will prove fatal.
Hamilton, with two friends,
was taking- the negroes to a
farm four miles from town. He
had just turned a corner and
was on the crossing before he
noticed that a train was ap
proaching. He heard no whistle
he says, and had no time to
escape the collision. The auto
mobile was demolished.
