At a banquet tendered mem

cently Hon. David L. King was

His subject was “Arkansas” and

ing truthful facts:
“A magnificent state, -situated
in the heart of the temperate
zone; a climate unexcelled in all
the country; its resources
boundless; its mineral and ag
ricultural outputs so wonderful;
its topography so diversified; its
scenery is so enchantting as to
challenge the admiration of the
world wide tourist in search of
romance and grandeur
“A state where her fertile
fields and valleys produce the
greatest variety and the great
est quality of agricultural pro
ducts per acre of any state in
the union, and Her horticultural
products are world famed. From
her mountain and hillsides gush
forth innumerable bubbling
springs, trinkling down and wa
tering the valleys below, in
which the rose b’oome all the
year round, and the song of the
mocking bird is not hushed.
But agricultural products, beau
tiful valleys, lofty mountains,
sparkling waters, luscious
fruits, and fragrant flowers are
not all this wonderful state con
tains and produces; it produces
noble, brave and patriotic sons
and daughters, who are big
brained and generous, who have

NEWPORT’S REPLY.
Newport Accepts the Evidence
and Many Newport Readers
WUI Profit By It.
Which is the more weighty
proof—a few words from a
Newport resident, whom we
know and respect, or volumes
from strangers in distant towns?
There can be only one reply.
Mrs. M. Porter, 416 Hazel St-,
Newport, says: “I had a con
stant ache in the small of my
back- Stooping or lifting made
me suffer intensely and I felt
languid and ■worn-out most of
the time. My kidneys didn’t act
as they should. On a friend’s
advice, I got a box of Doan’s
Kidney Pills from Walker’s
Pharmacy. After using them, I
was free from the ailments.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy
—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the
same that Mrs. Porter had.—

ers,
United Press Dispatch.
Washington, D. C., June 16.—
The prosecution of the men who
conduct employment agencies
and practice fraud upon men in
search of crop harvest work was
threatened today by Secretary
Secretary Wilson believes the
greatest hindrance to the use of
the labor department as a free
employment agency is the lack
of facilities for advancing rail
road fare to applicants.
To remedy this defect, he has
asked the Interstate Commerce
Commission to approve regula
tions with railroads to run ex
cursions to the grain fields and
other places where workmen are
needed, at reduced rates.
Nine Bodies Sunk In Sewers.

streets undermined by the over
taxed sewers, has not been com
pleted and it is feared that many
more bodes will be found.
The flooding sewer conduits
are believed to have formed un

erable magnitude and the city
fears more cave-ins. The cab

measures for the sewers are ut

with pains in my left side, and would

Medicines patched me up for awhfla

Women who suffer from extreme

“Six months I
